They’re not played a lot, but if someone is, they have to say “graveyard order matters,” whether or not it only matters to them or to all players.

One I really like playing is called Corpse Dance . It’s a strong reanimating spell if the top creature is one you want back. Pairs well with Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed effects.

Another that I play is Guiding Spirit . This one matters for all players and you cannot reorder or remove cards for Charmbreaker Devils effects at all

Ghoulcaller's Bell and Pyxis of Pandemonium will work in tandem with Lantern of Insight to manipulate topdecks for Daxos.

Is there a Sheoldred, Whispering One sitting in the graveyard of a Meren of Clan Nel Toth deck? Let Guiding Spirit retrieve it for you.

Lantern of Insight, Ghoulcaller's Bell, Pyxis of Pandemonium, Anchor to the Aether, and Guiding Spirit to manipulate the top card. Actually, that's really only a few. Pretty much my whole is about making sure Daxos gets something good. I'll just include a link in case you want to check out the list.

I still think you should play with Telepathy, but if your opponents don't like that you could play with Lantern of Insight It's not as overt so others won't hate on it and it has just a bit more functionality. One thing I think you could easily cut is Tidespout Tyrant unless there's something I'm not seeing, Guiding Spirit or Emeria Shepherd could replace it. Also, you really gotta get that Plains count up, with Emeria, The Sky Ruin I would try and not go under 10, so some lands that you gotta make room for are Myriad Landscape and Irrigated Farmland

Raging_Squiggle on Can I use the stack …

Yes it can. You just have to stack it all correctly. Because all the triggers happen upon casting, they stack in any way you want. This is what the stack will look like.

Top of stack
Cephalid Shrine's trigger
Thrumming Stone trigger.
Emrakul, the Promised End's trigger.
Emrakul, the Promised End creature spell.
Bottom of stack

In order to do this correctly, you must let Cephalid Shrine's trigger resolve before activating Guiding Spirit, and you must activate it before Thrumming Stone's trigger resolves.

So I wonder if the following scenario would work:

I play Emrakul, the Promised End. As a reaction, I put Thrumming Stone's ability on the stack. As a reaction to THAT, I activate Guiding Spirit's ability. Finally, I counter Emrakul with Cephalid Shrine.

So what I want to happen, is that Emrakul is put into my graveyard, then on top of my library and finally I cast her because she is among the 4 cards that I look at with ripple.

If you know whether or not this would work, please let me know :)
