bankrupt_on_selling on Mayael the anima: Big stomp

I've dusted off my magic cards after not playing for a long while and I'm comparing and contrasting my deck with yours. My "Anayalation" themed Mayael I made destroy stuff a sub theme. Curious what your thoughts are on some cards I have that you don't. Homeward Path, Defense of the Heart, Godsire, Worldspine Wurm, Impervious Greatwurm. And if you had the three on color og duals what three lands would you take out for those?

Siege-Gang Commander - Expensive but might be worth considering.

Feldon of the Third Path - Reuse ETB synergies

Flametongue Kavu - Removal on a creature

Humble Defector - While not ETB, gives you draw which you really need in red. it's a political tool and works best with Homeward Path, the other political tool, especially useful against GY decks that take your creatures

Zealous Conscripts - Super helpful on it's own and can combo with Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker. Kiki adds so much value on it's own as well

Terror of the Peaks - No explanation needed

Curse of Opulence - Politics + useful with Norin.

Outpost Siege > Vigilante justice - Different modes and while it works differently, it's almost the same. Card draw is very important in red EDH

Warstorm Surge - No explanation needed

DemonDragonJ there are innumerable options for proxying to achieve the goals you’re after in that avenue. If somebody’s going to complain about proxies in a casual environment, they’ve misunderstood the point of the game (to have fun).

Wotc need a swath of their cards to be sought-after in order for their product to sell, and that means having a degree of scarcity to ensure those cards maintain value (to be clear, I don’t think Homeward Path fits in that bucket - i think that particular card is instead doomed by its awkwardness in bring reprinted in any particular product, while also being a card the majority of people simply won’t care about either-way).

Building on the above, Homeward Path does not really have a clear reprint path. For a card to be included in a preconstructed product or a set, there needs to be some worthwhile reason to include it. Path rarely will fit the bill.

For a preconstructed product, Path would need to further that deck’s gameplay. That means you would need to have cards that both give your opponents objects and that you might later want to take back. That is a weird niche - and, while donate might get a precon, I doubt we will ever see a “donate then take back” precon, as that is not an archetype that really exists (outside of very, very niche cases like Karona, False God).

For a set, it would need to be in a set with a heavy theme of theft - enough of a theme to warrant including tech designed to stop it. I doubt we will ever see a set with such a large theft component to justify Path’s inclusion. Theft is one of those things which makes players angry - and thus is seen as not fun by anyone except the theft player. That alone likely means we will not see a significantly theft-themed set.

More importantly than some players being bored, however, is how poorly theft actually plays - when the game is over, you have to go through and sort out whose cards are whose. That is a hassle and leads to non-gameplay elements taking up a disproportionate amount of time at events. That goes past simply getting folks frustrated in game - it makes the event worse for everyone.

As such, since there pretty much is no real reason to print Path, it just does not get printed very often.

Homeward Path is kind of an all-or-nothing card. If an opponent's using a theft or chaos deck, it's a game changer. Otherwise, it's useless. You have a lot more control over the utility or the other cards.

Additional haste outlets in land form are Flamekin Village and Hanweir Battlements  Meld.

Do you have a lot of troublesome lands or creature stealing in the meta? I ask because you run dust bowl. If there is a lot of creature stealing, given your deck is commander reliant (and lots of creature stealing is in enchantment form), a Homeward Path might be worth it. Especially if you add Starke of Rath for the synergy.

Earlier, you mentioned the perma sol ring. I can't recall if you are one of the players who doesn't like Sol Ring and thats why it's not included.

I have no idea if you want random input on this, so ignore this if you don't!

It might clog up your mana base, but you could sneak a few more creatures by throwing in a couple man-lands to replace other lands. With Nadu you'd put them directly into play, and even if they ETB tapped they can still become a creature and be targeted. There are a few that only use 1 mana to transform (such as Mishra's Factory and Inkmoth Nexus/Blinkmoth Nexus), but a few that turn on for 2 mana exist as well (Treetop Village, Faerie Conclave, Lair of the Hydra, and Mishra's Foundry), I feel like with all your 'free mana whenever a land ETBs' effects you'll easily be able to use them when you need them. The ETB tapped ones are worse (but usually offer colored mana), but as noted you'll usually see a given land when you're using Nadu (because you go through so many more cards with Nadu than you draw normally), so all that matters is they are creatures too, when I was testing this the issue was running out of creatures and not being able to continue, I often had gobs of mana I had no real use for (I will say the deck can easily hold up a hand full of interaction after using Nadu, even if you don't truly 'go off'). I took a quick look at your land list, and if I wanted to pull a couple lands I think Talon Gates of Madara has low synergy, I'd also consider Nesting Grounds, and since you have a few removal spells you might even switch out Homeward Path, depending on how theft-heavy your meta is.

Since you can generate a fair bit of mana in this deck when you're going off (and playing it for 4 or 5 mana in a slow game could also be a solid play) I think Awaken the Woods might do work in here.

It's pretty minor, but Whir of Invention costs one more (but has improvise fwiw), it doesn't require you to have an existing Artifact out, and it's an Instant so you can use it on an opponent's end step to get your Shuko out so you can go off on your turn. I think this is more than you can do with Reshape, ymmv.

It's a niche use, but if you switch out Amphibian Downpour (a card I legit love btw) for Curse of the Swine you'd have the option of targeting all of your disposable creatures and replacing them with brand spanking new piggies! These can be targeted anew, meaning if you draw into it at the right time it should win the game. It can also be used aggressively to excellent effect (and can do both at the same time), it sucks that it's a Sorcery though!

This is really splitting hairs a bit, but with your Commander I wonder if good old Sunderfoil might be better at doing what Mana Vortex does? Sunder's an Instant (so you can play it on an opponent's endstep), and as long as you've already got Nadu and a free equip out you'll be fine on your turn, but it's also a much worse Blue Silence effect you can use during your combo to make it much harder to interact with you, and you just keep digging out new lands so it's all good? I love Mana Vortex and think it's doing a different enough thing that both could be fun. You could also try out Winter Orb and Static Orbfoil if you're feeling, well, 'orbsy', both make it much harder to use lands, and you get to cheat a ton in untapped if all is going well.

Hope your testing is going well!

Oh, it looks like you have 99 cards, what a lovely problem to have!
