And one in green: Metamorphosis :-)

Thanks for the comment and the playtest! When I mill one Rites of Initiation I never use another Winding Way unless I am in really dire situation. It's there mainly for me to be able to keep more hands from the start, searching either for lands or creatures. Lead the Stampede doesn't do that. When I am storming I do not want to play Winding Way anyway, cause it's not castable through Metamorphosis.
The coloring issue for Salt Road Packbeast is real, mainly in storm turn, but I think Wizard's Rockets is not the way, because it would delute the deck and make it more prone to fizzleling. One way of fixing this would be pumping the numbers of rainbow lands, but I don't want to cut any more forests because of Skyshroud Cutter and the rest is already rainbowish or producing more than one mana.
And the biggest issue in my opinion is the protection of draw elves. You can kinda play around it by waiting to 4-5 available mana and cast them together with some beasts, but against burn that's not really an option. More protection spells would be much appreciated, but the best one is ephemerate which requires white.
I think, that if we could crack the mana color issue, this deck would ramp up quite significantly in its playability against competitive decks.

Ok, I added the Selesnya Sanctuary. I thought that I can make mana of multiple color from the Metamorphosis, which is not the case. I also added Ephemerate as an protection spell, and as this is almost never a dead card I am running two main board. Also the Crumbling Vestige works with Sanctuary and Arboreal Grazer pretty well for producing red in the big turn. I think it´s better than Lotus Petal, because it stays on the board afterwards. When i kept a hand with the petal before I had some draw elf on board one turn earlier, but I was struggeling with mana afterwards more often than not.
I am still not sold on Nylea's Forerunner in the main board as it is one more card that I really don´t want to see in my opening hand And there is not that many decks in current meta that would have many blockers and are pushing so aggresivelly. Maybe I need to loose some games to this and will change my mind :-D

I really think you want the Nylea's Forerunner. It isn't hard to cast on a storm turn, when you draw your whole deck you should have extra Metamorphosis to cast this. It's likely you'll only start with 2-4 non-sumsick creatures on the big turn. I have had a lot of games where Nylea's pushes through lethal off just these 2 attackers, and if I didn't have it I'd be a turn slower and in some cases I'd lose. Another consideration, the trample is very important vs. something like Prismatic Strands because it ensures one of your off-color attackers like Universal Automaton can still connect, when they Strands on green then block your non-green creatures. I would really consider adding Nylea's and Selesnya Sanctuary, and my current list I cut Skyshroud Ridgeback to add 2 Generous Ents which help with the mana and support sideboard Masked Vandal.

Good luck with the tourney yo!!

Syphon Energy / 1UG

Sorcery

Choose 1-

-Tap target untapped creature you control. Add colorless mana equal to that creature's mana value.

-Sacrifice target creature you control. Add mana of any color equal to that creature's mana value +1. Use this mana only to cast creature spells.

Entwine: Discard 2 cards.

Two of my favorite spells, Energy Tap and Metamorphosis; combined into one.

Repeat this but extra challenge, all combined spells must be the same type and colors. (Exp. all red sorceries or all blue instants)

BruhYouFarted on Metamorphosis' Funny Money

4 years ago

I am questioning about the lengths of Metamorphosis' special mana. Specifically, can you use Metamorphosis' funny money on alternative costs? More specifically, can its mana be used for either of the costs for spells with Morph? Can the mana be used for Emerge abilities? The Gatherer says that it can be used on additional costs, such as kicker.

Hey Carrick142857,

I'd say at this point, a lot of these kinds of decisions go down to personal preference, as well as your local meta. For example, I could easily see myself replacing Willow Geist with Soldevi Adnate. However, I do notice a general theme with the cards you listed (I forget; did I use Three Visits at some point?), which is that they're somewhat slow. I've also found the creature restriction on Metamorphosis a bit too restricting.

...

Alright, I think I'm replacing Willow Geist with Adnate, haha.

I love it and hate it.

I think you should cut like half the board wipes. And add cards like Village Rites, Burnt Offering, Deadly Dispute, Altar's Reap, Costly Plunder, Diabolic Intent, Tormented Thoughts, Morbid Curiosity, Mind Extraction, Momentous Fall, Natural Order, Life's Legacy, Eldritch Evolution, Metamorphosis, and last consider Bonds of Mortality. All of these cards pair well with your cmdr. Meaning you'll need less board wipes as you will always have it in the command zone.
