Oboro, Palace in the Clouds

Legendary Land

: .

: Return Oboro, Palace in the Clouds to its owner's hand.

I think Choke is a card you’d probably leave in the sideboard to battle decks that use islands. But I think Power Conduit is a good mainboard addition:

My thoughts as a rough draft

I feel like Bloodghast plays soo well as a wincon alongside Oboro that it felt like the direction to push in. Everything else is ensuring we get enough time to flood the board and create misery.

Yes, I think it's easily better than Lush Growth, at least in this deck. First of all, I'm not 100% on Lush Growth stopping a Flood Counter from making that land an Island and just an Island. Second, Lush Growth doesn't ramp, and Trace of Abundance does. Now if you were to compare Trace of Abundance to, say, Utopia Sprawl, that might be a different story. I don't think (and I could be wrong about this) that Utopia Sprawl cares whether it's on a Island after it's already enchanted a Forest, only that at the time of enchanting that the target was valid. Additionally, since Utopia Sprawl adds 1 mana of a named color in addition to the mana that land produces, it will still mana fix whether it's an Island or Forest, etc. Of course, Utopia Sprawl won't stop all your lands from becoming Islands, so it fails that test, which in this case, is arguably an important test. Trace of Abundance does all the things though - it ramps, fixes, and shrouds. It's not great with an MV of 2, but 2 still isn't that high of a bar to clear, especially for a deck that you don't really have any high hopes for in the first place. If it were me, I'd go probably go with 1-2xOboro, Palace in the Clouds, and 4xTrace of Abundance.

Any deck with Quicksilver Fountain really wants to be including multiple copies of Oboro, Palace in the Clouds. The reason being you can target this land, and in response to that trigger bounce the land back to hand, and replay it for your turn. This effectively means that Quicksilver Fountain never gets to see a boardstate with all-islands, and you get to better-lock your opponent out of the game.

ActionReplay on Looking for Lands? Flubs has a plan . . . Kinda?

Oboro, Palace in the Clouds would be awesome in this deck. I didn't know this card existed. May try to trade in cards to get this land cause its kinda pricey to buy.

The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale?

More realistically, probably something like Shizo, Death's Storehouse or Minas Morgul, Dark Fortress for Voltron, or find some way to abuse Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth/Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth or Oboro, Palace in the Clouds or something.

fluffyeel I appreciate all of your feedback!

Commandeer and Misdirection both fit the (rather unintentional) "free" theme I have in the deck, but exiling two blue cards in my deck seems a bit steep for my play style. I would simply use something like Redirect, or counter it altogether.

Teferi's Tutelage was in here, but i felt i was concentrating too much on the draw/mill mechanic, not to mention it's another 3 drop (I'm wierd about mana costs) that, as you stated, does less than its Sphinxy big brother. And Puzzlebox just doesn't feel like it has the impact it should for a 4 drop.

Capsize's cost and buyback is too expensive; especially with all of the other 1-2 cost bounces available; and Sunder would only hurt me as well.

Mystical Tutor will find a home in here. Of course I need more ways to find combo pieces! Not sure why I never picked this one up.. I guess I assumed it was beyond my budget without ever checking. LOL

I was't aware that Clever Impersonator existed. The versatility makes the extra cost almost bearable to my mana-frugal brain. This will need further study.

I only have one Oboro, Palace in the Clouds and it's in my Modern deck. I may have to pick this and Boseiju next pay.

Academy Ruins is awesome! I believe I never picked it up because it was expensive; and when I got the means to get it, forgot all about it. Buried Ruin was one I had, and didn't cost anything to activate at the time. Thanks for reminding me!!

Memory Jar's a bit expensive for my taste. I don't have a lot of luck with wheel-ish effects, as the cards I need to further my goals are often in the hand I'm discarding/phasing leaving me in a logistical pickle that robs me of the win, and where words cannot express my frustration.

Overall, I think you've helped quite a bit! A bit more visceral than "yOu nEeD gRaVeYaRd hate" that I always get!!

I just thought of a few other useful tools:

  • Commandeer is another good zero-mana... not counter, but disruptor. It's become more popular, I've noticed, but it's still not something a lot of people see coming. Similarly, Misdirection is another handy tool for disruption, but it's more limited than Commandeer (though it's one less card to exile...).
  • Teferi's Tutelage is another fun mill toy. It's a bit more limited than Sphinx's Tutelage, but why not double up the fun! Similarly, you can use Teferi's Puzzle Box to mill your opponents even faster while also disrupting their game play.
  • Capsize is another all-purpose bounce, and reusable as well. Sunder is another great way to lose friends at instant speed. You could also consider Mystical Tutor to help dig for things you need.
  • Clever Impersonator is more versatile than Copy Enchantment for one more mana, but it may not be extremely necessary.
  • There are some lands that might be handy for your strategy. Oboro, Palace in the Clouds gives you reusable landfall; Boseiju, Who Shelters All makes sure your essential Instant and Sorcery spells don't get countered (e.g. Cyclonic Rift); Field of Ruin kills troublesome lands and gives mandatory search (and landfall), which is relevant for Archive Trap; and Academy Ruins is a more reusable Buried Ruin.
  • Cyclonic Rift pairs very well with Memory Jar. Just saying. :P
