Sousaphonist on Can Jodah and Morophon make …

I've been thinking of making a Wizard tribal EDH with Jodah, Archmage Eternal as the general and thought of a weird synergy with Morophon, the Boundless. If I were to declare Wizard for Morophon, would his reduction ability plus Jodah's replacement ability make all my Wizards free?

Yidris: Controlled Chaos, budget power won a long, kind of crazy game. Darryl cast Jokulhaups via Discord, Lord of Disharmony, which looked like it was handing Nolan the game, since he was able to make his Rakdos, the Muscle commander indestructible. I drew well and cast the greatest thief in the multiverse, Dack Fayden, to steal Darryl's Sol Ring. I cast an Aetherflux Reservoir, and a Sunbird's Invocation. The next turn, I cast a Berserkers' Onslaught, Sunbird's Invocation revealed an Inevitable Betrayal, which I used to get Nolan's Molten Primordial. That stole the Rakdos, the Muscle, a Professional Face-Breaker and an OG Jodah, Archmage Eternal. I attacked Nolan with his own commander and Darryl's Tainted Strike made it lethal, even as I attacked him with Jodah, Archmage Eternal, also for lethal (he was at three life). Doug had enough on board to kill me but I untapped and played Karn's Temporal Sundering, bouncing my Dualcaster Mage. In my extra turn, I had the Dark Petition to grab Ghostly Flicker. Ghostly Flicker copied by Dualcaster Mage does go infinite. Infinite mana, then Seasons Past meant I was totally infinite. I could recur the Dark Petition for Seasons Past and cast them infinitely plus so many more, Aetherflux Reservoir was a win condition

Welcome to the club, BIAxKatana!

Obligatory caveat that I'm not a Commander expert, so I might be missing some details. My first thought on looking at this deck is that there might be too many payoffs and not enough support. While cards like Exploration and Burgeoning are generally good ramp, with only 33 lands, minimal land searching, and not much repeatable draw, I don't expect this deck to get more than a couple of extra land drops each match.

How reliable are Fist of Suns and Jodah, Archmage Eternal for you? They combo well with Morophon, the Boundless, so how quickly can you get them and a full color suite active? Is it better to play Esika, God of the Tree  ^Flip or The Prismatic Bridge  ^Flip?

There could be some bad interactions between your counterspells and Mana Maze. Mana Maze supports your colorless creatures, but unless an opponent is playing heavy {U}, countering one of their spells basically resets Mana Maze.

What is the role of Luxior, Giada's Gift and the assorted Jin-Gitaxias  ^Flipes?

Not quite. Jodah, Archmage Eternal doesn't directly change a card's mana cost. The mana cost of a card is exactly what's printed in the top right corner--{1}{G} for Predatory Sliver, for example. Replicate adds an optional additional cost equal to the mana cost and is not affected by Jodah's ability.

With Jodah, Archmage Eternal you can pay WUBRG instead of a spells cost and with Morophon, the Boundless you get a reduction of WUBRG mana cost on spells with the creature type you choose. This means that you can cast all spells of that creature type for free. Now my question is how this interacts with Hatchery Sliver. Assuming the “free” creature type is sliver you could essentially infinitely copy any sliver you wanted since their mana cost is effectively free. Am I getting this right?

Let's see. Well, one easy adjustment is to cut some of the more money-expensive angels. Lots of big bomb angels are not very expensive money-wise, so that is one cut. Another is to cut some of the fetch-lands for cheaper substitutes. Adding in Jodah, Archmage Eternal and Fist of Suns can help, too. The important thing is to stick the Bridge as soon as possible. Then it helps smooth out anything else.
