Alearin on Treasure, Dwarves, and Dragon's; OH MY!

4 months ago

Hi. Thanks for the comments on my desk Magda of the Maskwood [[Guide]] Updated for MKC. I was checking your build of Magda out and saw some cards that I think might fit your build.

1. Ingenious Artillerist - Every time one or more artifacts enter the battlefield under your control you burn everyone's faces for the number of artifacts. This seems like it would quickly get grow to a ton of damage with your damage boosting cards. If nothing else it can be a backup to Reckless Fireweaver.
2. Spiteful Repossession - With damage boosters out this can turn being slightly behind in land to a huge windfall of treasures. If each opponent has 1 more land then you and you have one damage doubler out you would deal 2 damage to each opponent and make 6 treasure.
3. Magmatic Force - Every upkeep, including your opponents, do 3 damage minimum to whatever you want. With your damage boosters it will often be more. Burn their face or that annoying value creature that never attacks. If you have Magmatic Galleon and/or Spiteful Banditry out you can also get so treasure for more Magda triggers.
4. Descent into Avernus - Generates increasingly large amounts of treasure tokens for the board; however, I would say you are best positioned to use them. Besides given treasures to your opponents it is also a bit dangerous cause the damage it deals applies to you as well. If nothing else this will accelerate your games by increasing the mana available and lowering life totals.

Lots of changes recently. Added the following, removing Words of Wind, Reality Heist, Whir of Invention, and Vedalken Archmage:

Thassa's Oracle (Great win con when you get to the bottom of your library)

Transplant Theorist (Replaced the archmage)

Ingenious Artillerist (Redundancy for Reckless Fireweaver)

Dockside Extortionist (It's just too good not to include)

Drafna, Founder of Lat-Nam (This guy is great for keeping the storm going by returning your cheap mana rocks to your hand to recast)

Optimator My only issue with Ingenious Artillerist isn't it being effective, but how effective it may be. KTP kind of wants to try and not be seen as a huge threat and direct damage with my gimmick side-theme might be counter-productive. That said, ain't nothing wrong with being a threat. I also want to try to keep the creature count as low as I can.

Ingenious Artillerist would be good with treasures

Thanks BishopAtavist for the suggestions! Ingenious Artillerist seems like a very cool addition but Brass's Bounty would be a little too much of treasure creation and I think that it would change the theme of the deck a little to much. What I mean is that, this deck can be optimized a lot by adding more treasure synergy but It will lose the dice rolling + big dragons thematic that I'm trying to achieve. Thanks a lot again!
