@legendofa: Remember when Call of the Herd and Morphling were some of the best creatures in the game?

@Coward_Token: And emblems! Non-EDH Magic has been using the command zone for quite a while now.

Alchemy Laboratory {3}{UR}

Artifact

When ~ enters the battlefield, create a Reagent token for each card type among permanents you control.

Whenever an artifact token is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, you may discard a card. If you discard a card this way, draw a card. (Reagent tokens are artifacts that have "{T}, sacrifice ~: Flip a coin. If you win the flip, put a +1/+1 counter or a charge counter on target permanent you control.")

---

Now that Reagent Tokens exist with the others, can you design a cross between Morphling and Atog to consume all the types of artifact tokens?

StratM on Muldrotha, the PermaGrave

rambunctiousOrator I feel like there are some fun combos you can do with your graveyard that are unique to this deck. For example, I have Necrotic Ooze, Morphling, and Argothian Elder creating infinite mana. But I also acknowledge that the control/boardwipes in this deck are either slow or lacking for a sultai deck. So I do want to theme around graveyard combos using Muldrotha, the Gravetide or like the combo I mentioned. But I also want to increase the quality of its control/boardwipes so that it has the time to do what it wants.

Thanks, though this deck absolutely does require an opponent with creatures, preferably big ones. I've thought about throwing maybe one Morphling in just as a back up plan, IDK.

And I feel like a Blightsteel Colossus deck wouldn't be out of the question for most people. I also like the look of Morphling and its many counterparts. By the way, does this rule involve letting people use Conspiracies? Since they reference the command zone and all.

I noticed that as soon as Fiery Emancipation was spoiled. A supercycle like this can take years to complete though, the Morphling -cycle ( AEtherling , Torchling , Brightling , Thornling , Endling ) took from Urza's Saga (1998) or Planar Chaos (2007), depending how you count, to Modern Horizons (2019) to complete. So it's a fun thing to look out for, but don't hold your breath for the next tripler enchantment '^^

What would you want the blue, white and black ones to triple?

Triple life is an easy, and slightly boring thing for white to triple, of course, triple cards (like a better Teferi's Ageless Insight ) makes sense for blue. I'm not sure what resource black would triple though, nothing obvious that black creates, better than the other colours.

If you do decide to build Mairsil, the Pretender, basically what you do is you make half your deck cards that have an activated ability, then lands and little bit of other whatever.

Some really good cards for Mairsil with activated abilities are:

Blighted Bat (Gives haste)

Cinderhaze Wretch (Discard+Untap)

Doom Whisperer (Mills, good for setting up Mairsil)

Horseshoe Crab (Untaps)

Kozilek, the Great Distortion (Counters stuff)

Mirror-Mad Phantasm (Not sure about ruling, but dumps portion of library in grave)

Morphling (Untap+Shroud)

Quicksilver Elemental (Targeting Mairsil, makes it so he can do his abilities any number of times per turn, it's gnarly)

Pendant of Prosperity (Again, weird rulings, but I believe it gives you crazy value because you control Mairsil aka Pendant and your its owner.)

Gilded Lotus (Should hopefully be obvious)

poorpinkus on Infinite Combos in EDH - Experiment Kraj Budget

Wizkalifa Forgotten Ancient is a great card! I probably won't put it in this deck because I'm purely tunnel-visioning in on the infinite combos, but it would probably make the deck a lot better by giving some alternate ways to win!

Krazydude123 Hmm, haste trample from Shifting Ceratops is very tempting (similarly for Zegana, Utopian Speaker ), however usually I like my haste/unblockable enablers to have some way to protect Kraj as well. For example, Thornling can also give itself indestructible and Morphling can give itself shroud.

Gyre Engineer and Incubation Druid would be AMAZING in the deck though! I think in paper I actually have a gyre engineer in the deck, and I did NOT realize that Incubation Druid gave mana of any colour! That's amazing since it's so hard to find mana dorks that make blue. Definitely putting both of those in, thanks!

Thank you both for the suggestions!
