Mirror Shield is an unsung hero in EDH as well.

Back again, legendofa, and maybe for the last time. The art is all homogenizing and my eyes are starting to glaze over, but I managed to pick these first person viewpoint cards from a few different sets.

Arcane Signet

Giant Opportunity

Happily Ever After (check out the far right side, I think we’re seeing this from the viewpoint of whoever’s holding the goblet with a blue shirt)

Lucky Clover

Wishclaw Talisman

Bronze Sword

Mirror Shield (I prefer the Ocarina of Time version myself)

Treacherous Blessing


Possibles:

Grim Physician At first I thought the hand in the foreground belonged to someone else, then I thought it belonged to the sick guy, and I’ve been bouncing back and forth since. Not enough art is shown for me to settle on a choice.

Idyllic Tutor Hand coming in from out of frame, but no way is this a first person perspective.

Memory Drain I can’t tell if it’s a guy or a statue bust reflected in the eyes, but either way I think the angle is too far off for it to be a FPP reflection view.

Traveler's Amulet unless the scenery reflected in the medallion has eyeballs, I think this one’s out.

Hello fellow Wyleth, Soul of Card Draw player!

I'm glad you got both Wyleth's and Aesi's precons for a good price. They are reeeeally explosive in gameplay with a few upgrades.

I play a lot of this bad boy, and I want to suggest some swaps below 3 USD for you to take it to a higher ground:

First of all, the ramp. I found out that 2 CMC, untapped ramp is the best for Wyleth. Since he draws so many cards, he can chain rocks and voltron pieces in the same turn, so his next turn is even more explosive than the last one. I almost always have more mana than the Green decks in my pod.

You should run boardwipes that hits your stuff the least:

Also, you can streamline your removal package. All of those are fetchable by Sunforger:

More/better auras and equipment

Cheating equip costs

If you really need to protect yourself against attacks, Ghostly Prison is a way better Palace Guard.

More utility lands

AWebb on Tetsuo

I was thinking something like Mirror Shield, Ring of Evos Isle, or General's Kabuto with another equipment like Pact Weapon, Hexplate Wallbreaker, or Argentum Armor. Though General's Kabuto might not allow you to put any more equipment onto Tetsuo, I don't really know how that works. You would also have to get rid of the 2/2 rebel on Hexplate Wallbreaker to be able to put it on Tetsuo, and that might be more trouble than it's worth.

It's not just trying to make a budget deck work.

If you're like me and have a thing for more out there commanders (think Sasaya, Orochi Ascendant  Flip or Ben-Ben, Akki Hermit), then you need to work harder in the 99 to bring the deck up to parity since you're trying to get theme with less card support than Big stompy Jodah, the Unifier has.

Continuing in terms of card support, there are many effects that can protect a creature. Swiftfoot Boots gets reprinted every 5 minutes while Lightning Greaves is an extra effect in the same vein. Mask of Avacyn, Whispersilk Cloak, Neurok Stealthsuit and Mirror Shield all fill a very similar role. You can get 4 of those equipments to protect your commander for under a dollar each. On the flip side, an effect like Pariah's Shield exists on very few cards (I only know of Pariah as a similar effect) so outside of a white colour identity, you've got to use one card for that idea which was printed nearly 20 years ago and has never (The list is so diverse it basically doesn't count) been reprinted.

Pariah's shield isn't a bankbreaking card, but the scarcity of similar effects shows how even the most creative budget player is stuck away from creative/interesting strategies when their brew needs a specific piece which will cause problems in their budget.

RiotRunner789 on Hexproof in Mono White?

2 years ago

There are a ton of instants that grant hexproof but no white enchantments.

You have a few other equipment though, Champion's Helm, Mask of Avacyn, and Mirror Shield.
