Idoneity on Affinity for Rubber Chickens (Chiss-Goria EDH)

2 weeks ago

Love this list. It's very silly and it's very cool. That's enough for my +1.

However, what sort of commenter would I be if I were to abstain from imparted recommendations? Tribute to the Squeaky Mister.

Imma be mindful of budget. Welding Jar is a fantastic piece of utility that furthers your affinity plan. They do substantially less, but Mishra's Bauble and Ichor Wellspring each act the same in that regard.

It's no artifact, but Spiteful Banditry poops out treasure tokens when and after it wraths.

Something I did in my artifact list to increase artifact count is replace lands with Traveler's Amulet style effects. For the same reason, I also run Wanderer's Twig, Renegade Map, Mycosynth Wellspring, and Expedition Map.

For your big squeakies, I couldn't recommend Ruin Grinder more. It's easy to slot in because it's secretly a Mountain, and it let's you draw in a pinch.

I'm sure you know Portal to Phyrexia, but I figured I'd mention it.

One of the best artifacts in the past few years is Brass's Tunnel-Grinder  ^Flip. It's just good. I've never been displeased with one in hand, as it always minimally replaces itself and card filters.

A final recommendation that forgoes budget concerns is Memory Jar. It's one of the best draw effects an artifact deck can muster. A one-sided, one-turn wheel is as good as it gets, especially when it's cast with affinity.

Of course, all of these suggestions are brought about by a different mind, so employ only what you see fit. You know which squeakies he likes best, so not all of these may be up to snub.

Love the deck! Stay silly!

Balaam__ Honestly, I'm not even convinced by Quest for the Goblin Lord, too many artifacts to be able to trigger consistently.When he does it, it's a blast, but it happens very often that it's a dead draw.I need to experiment more to get a clear vision, worst case scenario I'll replace it with Foundry Street Denizen or Mishra's Bauble

Bonecrusher Giant is a nice dual purpose card, offering a way to sneak damage in via Stomp (it helps all other sources get through for that turn too), and a creature that comes out soon enough for 4/3 to still matter.

Have you thought about adding 10 more cards to get this up to 60? I wondered about Dragon's Rage Channeler, as well as some cards to support it; I'd recommend either x4 of Mishra's Bauble or Urza's Bauble, and probably x2 Seal of Fire to get 2 more types into the list. Seal of Fire doesn't look that flashy, but it's ability to store resources over time can in effect be both powerful and versatile. You might even look at Hearth Elemental.

Chino90 confidently, yes. It is, in my opinion. The number of times in my playtesting where that made/broke a game was three times, where I drew a second Urza's Saga for my turn two. I agree, it could happen to matter.

It's a feels bad moment, but that happened so rarely I'm just not worried about it, because when I am playing the Saga first and it matters, that's when I had my toolbox and another set of spells swapped into the deck.

I've gone back and forth thinking about the applicability, but having it has helped me (statistically) more than it has hurt me (in play testing).

In my heart, I'm looking to add exactly 1 copy of Mishra's Bauble to ensure, truly, as you described, I never hit a dead draw. But otherwise..

..i kinda think the list is air tight. Swapping any of the 3 to 4 copy cards in the list for any 1 of my SB artifacts is how I intend to run the deck. I guess it's easy to overlook when you're essentially dueling with yourself each time and choosing which one-of is gonna be mainline this time.

Tons of food for thought there.

Tl;DR: I made an assumption about my deck and it's sideboard where one would always choose whichever of the 3 artifacts they wanted for mainboard, prior to the duel, in place of any 1 copy of a card in the list that was not as helpful for playstyle, matchup, etc.

I.e., I tend to take out 1 copy of March of Burgeoning Life before pretty much anything else, in favor of the Shadowspear first.

Chino90 i also believe you could try play testing too! I'd be curious what others discover upon trying out my arrangements.

Thanks for returning to the list, and don't forget to upvote this literal primordial soup!

I heard that new fangled Marauding Mako fella likes casting Burning Inquiries

Mishra's Bauble Street Wraith Detective's Phoenix are other regular players I've seen in these kind of builds, the phoenix in particular is extremely discgusting with FoMO. Your build is way more interesting however with Scourge Wolf and the madness cards. Just imagine dropping the wolf and bestowing the phoenix on it for 3 total mana, netting a 4/4 double striker haste flying you feel me???

Considering -1 Land, -1 Temur Battle Rage, and -2 Questing Beast (move to sideboard), +4 Mishra's Bauble > to increase likelihood of triggering delirium on Fear of Missing Out.

maybe a Ragavan or two in the mix??

Bookrook I've been waiting to add it as a one of for the list at the barem8nimum, because it could be so useful! Especially since I think Urza's Saga would fetch it, so if I run Mishra's Bauble then it might have some kind of utility. Will see what's up!

really nice deck. I have a similar one to it and I use Mishra's Bauble which really helps the Nethergoyf to get bigger faster.
