SO STOKED

FWIW, Knollspine Dragon has been much easier to setup for 4+ cards than I thought it'd be. That might be the next one to try for possible ramp options!

You're right about Mutavault unfortunately. Instead I'm gonna try Malakir Rebirth  ^Flip to see if I can more mileage out of that utility land spot. Valakut Awakening  ^Flip and Agadeem's Awakening  ^Flip are next on the list for testing.

FWIW I'm going to test Kolaghan's Command in favor of Bedevil to get some more flexibility in that removal spot. Same for Soul Shatter - it feels like so much value for 3 mana, I have no idea why it's a $0.25 card!

Have you ever tested Dragonspeaker Shaman? I'm wondering about it - that 2-mana cost reduction on a 3 CMC body just screams efficiency.

Also - how valuable has Ugin, the Ineffable been for you? I've been seriously considering it for the spot removal and draw but that six CMC is scaring me a bit.

X-Factor11105 I honestly can't really say how Blood Fast has been, since I've almost never drawn it. Blerg. In theory it's good; I thought about using Greed, but Blood Fast comes down way earlier, even if it does cost more to activate.

I don't think Mutavault works the way you're thinking (if I'm reading your post right). It can become a dragon to trigger stuff like Utvara Hellkite, but it'll never etb as a dragon for anything else.

Ugh, if Vanquisher's Banner cost like 2 mana less I would consider it, but 5 mana is just too much for that kind of effect IMO. Dragon's Hoard already pretty much fills that slot for me. I've actually also just put Skyline Despot back in, for extra dragon etb's and draw power, but I haven't had a chance to see him in action yet.

But also, YO, IMMERSTRUM PREDATOR

Ooh right, I forgot about Mutavault too. That’s another great synergistic card for merfolk decks

Balaam__ Thanks for the input! I haven't come across Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx yet, but I have definitely been looking into Aether Vial as well Mutavault. Maybe one day I can justify dropping the extra cash.

Fuzzlewuzzle How has Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip performed for you? In recent playtesting of my build it's clear this deck needs repeatable card draw to try and compete with so many of the low-cost, flexible Commanders currently en vogue.

Also, I think I was sleeping on Mutavault as a perfect cantrip for a bunch of the Dragon ETBs - have you ever tested this?

Dropped

• Parhelion II
• Primevals' Glorious Rebirth
• Syndicate Enforcer
• Mox Amber

Things I like

• Archfiend of Despair - I like. high cost
• Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose - good include
• Mangara, the Diplomat - I saw, I liked, I forgot

Considering

• Evra, Halcyon Witness - will consider
• Exquisite Blood - good wincon but could also lock game since not "may"
• Witch of the Moors - like, a little high for a non-closer. I like the control aspect.
• Forsaken Wastes - I like, similar to Sanctum of Stone Fangs
• Axis of Mortality - will consider long-term
• Near-Death Experience - interesting "combo" with axis and evra
• Phyrexian Altar - not planning to run unless a few more things to abuse

Probably not...

• Sorin Markov - considered but don't have at the moment
• Bolas's Citadel - always fun
• Dark Ritual - good ramp, can't abuse atm
• Doom Whisperer - with Witch of the Moors it helps but otherwise, the return from bin in the deck is a bit weak
• Necropotence - I don't like to always include
• Gravecrawler && Mutavault are no's
• Pox && Death Cloud - possible as finisher but does impact each player. iirc, active player goes first, not last. So if I need to sac the pieces that trigger on loss of opponent life, it'll whiff

I've played a small set of games with the deck now. It had impact on the game. Majority of creatures cast in the deck didn't feel of consequence when standing alone. I'm investigating more ways to gain life but also add "target player gains life" to abuse Tainted Remedy against non-life gain decks that just ignore it when it hits the field. Spells like Swords to Plowshares.

I'm having Mutavault show up as over $600 US, but I just ordered one off CardKingdom for $9. Is this a mistake (probably on my part if it is), or did I royally rip off CK?
