Feather, the Redeemed

Legendary Creature — Angel

Flying

Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets a creature you control, exile that card instead of putting it into your graveyard as it resolves. If you do, return it to your hand at the beginning of the next end step.

The long overdue edit is live :D Which also means that chat is archived once again (sorry about that) Sorry about having such a long wait for such a small update, not much to tweak with this deck recently, but I am tempted to make a separate more flicker based Feather, the Redeemed list for fun, so if that has a decent amount of success then I might consider tweaking this one further. But atm I am quite content with the decks playstyle the way it is. Just keeping those fingers crossed for more good Boros cEDH cards.

Hiya! I really like this list. You've got some cards that I've never seen for Feather, the Redeemed before that I'll probably be adding to my list.

With that, I've got a few recommendations.

First off, I recommend you bump the land count up to 37-38 lands. I've noticed Feather decks tend to be very mana hungry, and so it is really important to make your land drop every single turn. Without a copy of Land Tax, that just won't happen every turn with only 34 lands (assuming you play under the London Mulligan).

The other is adding more ramp to your deck. I noticed you counted cards like Land Tax and Armillary Sphere as ramp. As great as those lands are at securing your land drop and fixing your colors, they are not ramp cards as they don't provide you with more mana than you would have access to otherwise. I recommend adding in two-mana artifacts that tap for a colored mana such as Arcane Signet, Boros Signet, Fellwar Stone, Talisman of Conviction, and the two Diamonds Marble Diamond and Fire Diamond. Not only will this add to the ramp of the deck to help with the need for more mana, these I've found playing my version of the deck let you play a mana rock on turn two, and then cast Feather on turn 3 with the ability to hold up mana for a protection spell.

With that in mind though let me know how the deck has been playing, I'd love to hear about it!

Strange that you would mention a card like Feather, the Redeemed in your update for Stonecoil Serpent. I doubt that's a very relevant commander in a competitive setting.

@Blackheart426: Sorry. I've already made up my mind. I'm Going Gerrard on this. Akiri/Bruse Tarl was a close 2nd Place choice. The rest of the 5 choices were awful: Aurelia, the Warleader would've been a poor reason to run Boros in a cEDH environment. Haktos the Unscarred is basically the worst kind of Hot Mess that requires only 2, 3, & 4 CMC cards in case he enters play. This means you must attack w/ him EVERY TURN, & cards 0, 1, & all 5+ CMC cards are all not allowed. While I am currently building an Exalted Deck for Ol' Achilles, The Nyxborn, it's no means cEDH related. & Please... Don't get me started on Archangel Avacyn  ^Flip. Feather, the Redeemed, Depala, Pilot Exemplar, & Firesong and Sunspeaker all don't count as they have Tier 3 cEDH Level/Joke Build/Burn turned Life. I chose Gerrard because of this. Not sure if you understand, but...

…

…Anya, Merciless Angel is nowhere near such a statistic.

Sorry, I'm not changing CMDRs now; it's locked in by the one who Beheaded Urza.

I hope you understand... :(

At the beginning of combat on your turn, if you control a creature with power 5 or greater, exile the top card of your library. You may play that card until the end of the turn.

Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery that targets a creature you control, choose one:

• Pay : You may put a +1/+1 counter on that creature.

• Pay : That creature gains haste and trample until end of turn.

• Pay : At the beginning of the next end step, you may return that spell from your graveyard to your hand.

We've seen cards with more text, though this one is certainly pushing the limit. I like it. It might seem a little overpowered because of its sheer number of options and (mostly offensive) flexibility, but the options all cost fixed mana, which I think really balance it out (and actually might make it a bit frustrating to play if you don't run a ton of dual lands). This would be fun to put in a deck with Feather, the Redeemed, Dreadhorde Arcanist, Gnarlback Rhino, Season of Growth, those new heroes in Theros (like Hero of the Nyxborn) etc. This makes it good for Commander for a particular type of Commander deck that doesn't have a general to rally around, while making it somewhat unreliable for Standard.

Make some Thassa flicker hate.

Update: ...

...

& WE'RE OFF!

Who will decide to make me choose a good cEDH CMDR that is neither Depala, Pilot Exemplar, nor Feather, the Redeemed?

We got...

Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero

Akiri, Line-Slinger/Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder Partners

Aurelia, the Warleader

Haktos the Unscarred

& Archangel Avacyn  ^Flip

Aiming for the same GOAL!

Put your votes in now, & why they should be the cEDH CMDR to beat; be it abilities, support, etc.!

(ugh... THAT sucked.)

No really, though. I'd like your thoughts on this, please. What do each of these 5 Boros CMDRS have that can compete even on a Tier 3 at MAX level, & what are their flaws in cEDH (Partners Start at the Same Command Zone; thus why I didn't say Six.)?

Place your Opinions, Ladies & Germs... XP

& NOW THERE IS ONLY ONE.

It's been decided: Akiri, & Bruse Tarl Collab one last time in the true last attempt at cEDH Boros.

Obviously, suggestions are welcome, & while both have some degree of Stax/Prison in them as an idea, I also wanted a secondary theme in mind. But the following card types ruin these decks:

Torpor Orb Effects

Rest in Peace Effects

Not having asymmetrical effects.

(I could make a whole list in this case, but I have to commit to something...)

One Decklist has Mirrorwing Dragon, Zada, Hedron Grinder, & Feather, the Redeemed all at the same time. Are any truly needed? Well, we can say the Dragon is dead, so that leaves us w/ Zada & Feather. (sigh...) I'd rather put Feather, the Redeemed in the 99 in that case, or I could also keep Zada as well.

But IF I did, I'd have to center the deck on both. So, nope. Not adding either (Too Late; A Goblin Ally, & an Angel already snuck in...).

But if we're going for Tier 3: High Power; which is still a hopeless case for so many running , but what is required for this feat w/ the worst colors? & no, Ol' Feather doesn't count. That said, I'll have to lower my Expectations for now. But what stratagems to use? We've Stax, but what about a secondary decktype? Value Engine? That's what I'm thinking of right now, though I'd rather suggestions than opposition of as a result. If this deck can't truly be made well in such fashion (Tier 3 has some great non-Boros CMDRs in their colors so, who knows?), I'm putting my money where my mouth is, & give up the whole campaign of cEDH Boros for good, but only if we did a good enough effort to warrant this possibility. Though I still will plot to make a Haktos the Unscarred Exalted Deck even if this is successful. As of now, I need 91 DAMN cuts. Any ideas for those 91 cuts?

All right. I said enough. I just hope one wants to help as THE GAUNTLET IS THROWN.

good luck...

Ravenrose - Thanks for the advice! I opted for Mystic Retrieval over Archaeomancer since I can cast it off the top of my deck, but maybe it would be good to have another effect of that nature. Mystic Barrier could be something I'm interested in, though admittedly most of the people I play with are not particularly aggressive. Feather, the Redeemed is an interesting idea. I would have to determine if I think I have enough self-target spells to want her. Ponder and Rite of Replication are both great, thus why they're already in the list. Curse of the Swine is an option I am considering as a replacement for Divine Reckoning.
