vic on Is there a rules distinction …

4 weeks ago

I control an Ilharg, the Raze-Boar and attack with it, bringing in a Hellkite Charger from my hand. Do I get to use the Hellkite's activated ability? I'm not sure if there is a distinction between "attacks" and "put onto the battlefield attacking". It was not declared at attacker. Does that matter?

I haven't read the recent MtG storied beyond some of the TL;DR summaries. I know that some of the Guilds got hit pretty hard by the Phyrexian invasion, particularly the Simic, Golgari, and Gruul (?). The new 3-color precons definitely make it seem like Simic survivors got absorbed by the Azorius, and their combined forces are now a more investigative body. Also likely why a Simic mutant would now be Bant aligned. At face value it seems like Selesnya absorbed some of the Gruul clans.

"Disguise" definitely sounds like it could be Morph-esque. I don't think it would be a DFC mechanic, as I think MaRo has stated in the past that there are print-cost apprehensions to having DFCs in precons. The only other thing I could think of as a "disguise" would be the type of aggro effects we've seen on stuff like Ilharg, the Raze-Boar, Winota, Joiner of Forces, and Fireflux Squad. So maybe like an aggro "Creature Cascade", especially since Discover is currently in Standard.

Do you think Ilharg, the Raze-Boar would fit here? I know most of your creatures are cheap, but setting up an earlier eldrazi or Lord Xander might be worth it, plus he's got decent stats for this cost and he's got some resilience to removal.

evcicci on Pramikon, Sky Rampart + Ilharg, …

I have Pramikon, Sky Rampart out on the field choosing counterclockwise as my direction. Ilharg, the Raze-Boar attacks in the correct direction but then cheats out another creature attacking me which was out of direction. What is the correct interaction between these two cards

Thank you KBK7101! Honestly I'm kind of surprised with how popular Isshin became in the past year. He's already in or near the top 10 commanders in EDHREC. A year ago I thought that Satoru Umezawa or Hinata, Dawn-Crowned would have been the most popular commanders from Neon Dynasty.

I try to post updates when I feel they're relevant enough or worth posting lol. I printed out a copy of Otharri to try to play-test in the games I played last weekend, but sadly I didn't get the chance to play it irl then. I did like Skyhunter Strike Force and Mondrak, Glory Dominus when I played them in that game.

In solo play-testing I've mostly liked Otharri so far. I like that it has Haste baked in, so it is a bit speedier for a 5 drop. Although it has the baked in self-recursion, I'm not sure how often that will be relevant or used. If it manages to stick around or come back, then its token production potential will continue to scale up each swing with new Experience counters. I like that Otharri has flying, as I've wanted a little more "verticality" for attacking and defense.

I feel like the 5-drop and 6-drop creature slots are ones I've experimented with the most. I've also tested stuff like Balor, Death Tyrant, Karlach, Fury of Avernus, Ilharg, the Raze-Boar, and Adriana, Captain of the Guard at various points as 5-drop options.

Maybe on the board protection Crow-Umbra. If the deck ends up being aggro enough I might not need them. As for Angelic Exaltation and Ilharg, the Raze-Boar seshiro_of_the_orochi they’re cards to consider but I’m also being mindful of my curve considering how it’s positioned now.
