Not sure if this helps, but you should only need 1 Kira, Great Glass-Spinner in Merfolk. You can substitute 1 Kira for 1 Merrow Reejerey.

I would also suggest removing the 4 Opt for 1 Merfolk Trickster, 1 Merrow Reejerey, and 2 Vapor Snag. You could also add in some Harbinger of the Tides, if you so choose.

Alternatively, you could also look into 8 seas variations and run 4 Sea's Claim along with Spreading Seas. It’s a really fun way to mess with your opponent.

All and all looks like a good starting point for Merfolk.

magictimebois on Reyhan & Kira countering abilities

ah ok, thank you! Follow up question: if there were another card that also died at the same time let’s say Tireless Tracker and Reyhan, Last of the Abzan both have 3 +1/+1 counters on them, and Kira, Great Glass-Spinner is on the field. If Tireless Tracker and Reyhan, Last of the Abzan both die in combat, do they both target Kira, Great Glass-Spinner with Reyhan’s ability? Resulting in Kira, Great Glass-Spinner getting 3 +1/+1 counters? Or does Kira, Great Glass-Spinner counter the ability? Thanks again!

Assuming Reyhan, Last of the Abzan's ability is the first spell or ability to target Kira, Great Glass-Spinner that turn, it will be countered.

Hi there, I have a question regarding the following abilities; My battlefield consists of Reyhan, Last of the Abzan and Kira, Great Glass-Spinner, then Reyhan is killed. Would Reyhan, Last of the Abzan’s ability would go off and her +1/+1 counters would go on to Kira, Great Glass-Spinner? Or would that ability be countered by Kira? I’m running both of them in my Tiny Leaders deck and I would just like to know how this interaction works. Thank you!

PS: Kira, Great Glass-Spinner can help you to bother more the others, if you like the idea.

My meta isn’t too heavy on counterspells @RustyMC. Most decks with blue run around 5-8 but there are no mono blue decks with like 20 or so. For the few that are around my own countermagic helps a bit as well as shusher or barracuda. Targeted removal is more of a problem in my meta than countermagic. Played remora and rhystic study in the deck before but cutted them because they didn’t do a lot for me. I like transmute in certain decks but didn’t include them here, I prefer the cheaper standard tutors that hit more targets. The deck runs pretty solid so far, can’t complain about that. In some cases Xyris gets countered or removed but the deck is fast enough to play him again and still being able to win. Also a removal or counter for Xyris means a counter less for important cards like earthcraft or purphoros, which is often in my favor. Thinking about adding more stuff to protect Xyris like Kira, Great Glass-Spinner but beside that I’m really happy with how it performs

I really think white just offers more value for less and also provides really good synergy cards. Adding blue and losing Path to Exile, Voice of Resurgence, Siege Rhino, and all the great Flickerwisp targets just doesn't seem worth it for something like Prime Speaker Vannifar, Mulldrifter, Dimir Doppelganger, or Kira, Great Glass-Spinner that would admittedly be good but just slower and not as immediately powerful as what white offers the deck. White is just faster for cheaper.

jrippa no problem! I actually ran into a similar problem with Kira, Great Glass-Spinner once upon a time as well. Had her in an Ezuri, Claw of Progress deck, but her ability made it so I couldn't use my commander's ability... learned the hard way. lol. happy brewing!
