DemMeowsephs on Arixmethes: Draw your deck

2 weeks ago

Hey there! I would recommend more ramp and some different lands! Maybe some of the following can be of use to you?

• Lands
• Yavimaya Coast
• Breeding Pool
• Misty Rainforest
• Botanical Sanctum
• Hinterland Harbor
• Flooded Grove
• Waterlogged Grove
• Skyshroud Forest
• Ancient Tomb
• Prismatic Vista
• Fabled Passage
• City of Brass
• Mana Confluence
• Reflecting Pool
• Exotic Orchard
• Strip Mine/Wasteland
• Forbidden Orchard
• Gemstone Mine

• Gemstone Caverns

• Now I understand some of these are bigger budgeted, but a good mana base is quite important in commander, and while you have a good landbase already, these could make it much smoother and help lessen the chance of mana problems! Not only that, but it is very important to have ramp, so you can play your deck faster. Around 7-12 ramp spells is the average, so I would recommend some of the following:

• Ramp

• Exploration
• Burgeoning
• Birds of Paradise
• Talisman of Curiosity
• Sylvan Caryatid
• Lotus Petal
• Selvala, Heart of the Wilds (If you keep Arix as your commander)
• Kodama's Reach/Cultivate
• Sakura-Tribe Elder/Rampant Growth
• Farseek
• Arcane Signet
• Simic Signet
• Nature's Lore/Three Visits
• Emerald Medallion/Sapphire Medallion

• Explore/Growth Spiral

• Again I know that's a lot, but I would seriously recommend all of them, they are extremely helpful! Now I wouldn't recommend ALL of those, but maybe chose are 10 that stand out to you! Ramp is extremely important so definitely try it out.

• That said, I have a couple more suggestions as well. Arixmethes is good, but I'm not sure how he helps with card draw or anything. Since you have a average mana cost of 4.40 (which is a lot) maybe Kruphix, God of Horizons could be a better commander? Or maybe something like Tishana, Voice of Thunder and Prime Speaker Zegana? I'm not sure but I think having a commander that relates to the deck could be a pretty good improvement. ALSO, since you want to draw out your deck, Laboratory Maniac and Jace, Wielder of Mysteries could be pretty good combos. If you have Leveler and one of these guys you instantly WIN which is pretty crazy! And if you have nothing in your graveyard, Paradigm Shift can have a similar effect. Maybe they are worth including? Oh and before I forget, Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur and Thought Vessel are very fun in these decks :).

In the end let me know what you think! Did I miss anything? Or if you have any questions for me or want further help feel free to ask I'd love to help! If this does help be sure to check and support some of my decks: Double Trouble EDH, A Deal With the Devil EDH, and many others! Anyways though, hope this helps, good luck on your deck, and have a great day!!! Happy tapping!

DeinoStinkus Definitely! Lmao.

Dragonlord Ojutai would fit perfectly and he definitely feels like the perfect yugioh card.

Reznorboy I would say Esper would be your go to. Yugioh is all about special summoning big dudes on turn one, right? Well then you definitely want a reanimator style list that can play big fatties like Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur and play a really sweet control package.

I'm planning on a huge project that I need a lot of input on. Here's the pitch:

Remember that decklord article that never came out? Well, I thought of another way to bring T/O's amazing community to the forefront.

I have a YouTube channel (it's not big, link on my profile) and I'm planning on making a massive video, or maybe a series, focusing on T/O's many diverse users. If you aren't mentioned here, shoot me a message and I'll include you.

Here's what you can do:

• Ask for a custom picture. I do pretty realistic renderings of imaginary creatures quite well (I've drawn Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger and Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur among other things), but I have also done multiple lessons in drawing figures.

• Ask for a custom card. I've already done quite a few, but I'd like your input on what you want, so that you can have the closest to you.

• Send me a written message on what you like about T/O. I'll detail messaging options down below. You can also voice record something, as having a voice say something would be preferable to me reading it.

• Link a deck you've made that you're proud of. The formatting for linking decks can be found at the bottom of the comment box under "Formatting Help".

• Something else! I'm open to suggestions.

Messaging Options:

You can comment on my wall or pm me if you're an upgraded user. I'll enable chat for anyone who asks.

My email is [email protected], and you can find me on Reddit as u/DeinoStinkusOU.

Let me know if you have any questions, concerns, or feedback.

Phostration on Brain Getting Too Big

Lord_Olga off the bat just the fact that this one costs more than Slaughterhouse I would say buy Slaughter. As for additions for the deck, I would say Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur would be a great addition. The fact that you draw 7 and that the opponents hand size is reduced to 0 means that they never really get the chance to play many spells and are discarding even more cards. Of course the drawback is his mana cost. I would only include 1 in the deck if you do include him, and would suggest ways to pump mana such as Irencrag Feat or Dark Ritual. In a tri color deck I would recommend adding at least 2 Chromatic Lantern just to help with mana problems. Ob Nixilis, the Hate-Twisted might be a decent card as well.

A word of advice: Don't use Zeniths/Finales with Golos. you won't be able to use that card later on. Replace them with extra turn spells and Aminatou's Augury/Plague Wind type spells. For big creatures, let me recommend the Praetors over the Elder Dinosaurs. Zacama and Etali are fine, but Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur far outdoes Zetalpa, Primal Dawn.

Hydra Hunter's Power is X

When Hydra Hunter kills a hydra put X +1/+1 counters on it where X was the hydra's power

Since it seem we are returning to New Phyrexia in the near future make a new Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, Sheoldred, Whispering One, Urabrask the Hidden, Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur or Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger
