Thank you NV_1980, I didn't know Mirri, I admit that it has an amazing sinergy. It reminds me of Odric, Master Tactician but it's cheaper and has incredible value defending. In general, however, I tend to win at turn 5-6 pretty consistently because what matters is whether I can create an unstoppable horde or not. So even a 3 mana creature generally means being 1 turn slower. I will play with it and let you know however, because it's powerful. It could potentially replace Toski, Bearer of Secrets as it also does not play into the swarm dynamics (but it does help with speed). On Aura Shards: it's a great card and I used it for most of my previous iterations and it still makes the deck occasionally. In general however, I tend to be faster than most and because I do not base my strategy on any single card or large creature, I can generally deal with most enchantments. Until they pull a blood moon on turn 2 and I want to cry :) Definitly in the balance.

Check out Odric, Lunarch Marshal and Odric, Master Tactician. Both soldiers and both help control combat.

Looking pretty good! After some playtesting, I have more thoughts. Your landbase is pretty slow, and with 31 lands your deck wants a little more efficiency. Replace:

You've got a pretty trim list now, but I still have some suggestions.

First off, you need more ramp. Warrior's Oath looks good, but since it can't be searched by Sunforger, you're better off with ramp. I strongly recommend Tempt with Discovery, which is one of the most powerful land-search cards for a multicolor deck using green: You get any land, and then if any opponents search for lands you get that many more of any land.

Although Black Market Connections is superb, you might find more utility in Rites of Flourishing or Elven Chorus.

Djeru and Hazoret looks great, but since you're only running 16-17 other Legendary creatures excluding your commander, the odds will be 20%-25%. Not great. Consider the power of being able to flicker your commander in & out of play, allowing it to re-position targets: Ephemerate is cheap, or Eerie Interlude can protect your creatures from Wrath spells, but both spells can also be fetched with Sunforger, which improves your deck synergy.

Odric, Master Tactician looks good on paper, but he's much better when a deck is built around him. Here are 4 better options:

It looks like you have two copies of Odric, Lunarch Marshal, but I'm guessing you meant to run Odric, Master Tactician as the second?

I'd recommend checking out Flowering of the White Tree, Rising of the Day as some helpful anthems, as well as Minas Tirith as another utility land. The new Lord of the Rings set has lots of Legends matter support, more so intended for the Ringbearer mechanic, but is gas for Shanid, Dihada, and other Legends matter commanders.

Mirror Entity and Odric, Master Tactician will help turn those 1/1's into real threats.

I also have a mono white tokens deck but with Jazal at the helm. Feel free to check it out for more ideas. Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Goldmane... The Other Brother

Champion of Lambholt and Odric, Master Tactician will help you get damage through. Mirror Entity and Kamahl, Fist of Krosa will give you some finishing power.

Eternal Witness is 1 toughness and can be returned off pretty much anything dying... while returning something else to hand.

Well, I have an Abzan list but different commanders. Feel free to check out that list for some ideas on things like draw, removal, etc. that's not deck specific. Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Added Layers of Protection - Tymna & Sidar

legendofa on New hubs to be added

1 year ago

Saga has been added as a drop-down list hub.

sonalexander "Keyword soup" could be a viable hub, as long as the deck takes advantage of it with cards like Odric, Master Tactician or soul flayer and isn't just a bunch of disassociated keywords.

REGELDUDES Theft is a contentious hub suggestion. Right now, it's treated as part of the Aikido hub.

Boxfish It was a wonderful weekend, thank you!

I love all of these changes, they look quite well-decided. Viscera Seer is a monstrous card when you can use them. They've the ability to just help you dig for answers, like your Crypt Rats or Gray Merchant of Asphodel.

It's a touch rude for a solution, but for token producers like Scute Swarm, Krenko, Mob Boss, Myr Battlesphere, Thopter Assembly, or even Blade of Selves; Pestilence, Withering Wisps, Toxic Deluge; Cheap solutions that can get expensive, that can wipe your own dudes (but it's not like you're unable to bring them back).

If you're ever looking for ways to wipe the board without playing Mass Removal which Indestructable can dodge. Dictate of Erebos, Grave Pact, Urborg Justice, Killing Wave, Torment of Hailfire can access more than one target in a turn, and remove them without the need for targeting and benefit you in the ability to just bring a dude back with your commander or any other spell. Though I can't deny that this is a rather rude option, especially with cards like Tergrid, God of Fright  Flip, who would just give you control of all creatures your opponent's could sac. You'll gain control of most any board with just Tergrid alone. Then you've got little dudes like Fleshbag Marauder, Demon's Disciple, Plaguecrafter, Merciless Executioner, Gravelighter, Slum Reaper, which all had triggered abilities that react to the formerly listed removal, your commander, Ayara, First of Locthwain, and is prone to getting your targeted even harder, but does result in a powerful and satisfying resolve once you carry the reputation of dishing out a challenge. Depending on overall deck-composition. I don't necessarily recommend all of these; but... just saying Pestilence will get your table's attention every time, draw every bit of removal, and can you activated in response to any cast that isn't a counter. With a single Dark Ritual or Cabal Coffers cast/activation... your table will weep. Sorta.

I don't know if you can directly link decks, but my Halana and Alena, Totally Just Roommates, and my Atla Palani deck's all feature cards printed in their respective planes if not, cards printed in extra supplementary sets like how Odric, Master Tactician was first printed in (M13) but is unable to planeswalk to other planes, and resides on Innistrad; technically the coresets were the base and all else added to their printings and materials, but in reality it felt like the other way around (in my experience), the story blocks made the "core" sets feel like additional content to add to your lore; this being a factor I consider when building some decks. Sacrificial Splicer is a similar case (Except I kept my favorite artifacts from other planes in the deck, I have Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer as a partner to Rebbec, Architect of Ascension who are respective enemies in a sense to the Phyrexian cause, one directly influencing the Praetors while the other for a time was using Powerstones to make a barrier strong enough to keep Phyrexia out, and have constructed the deck around ''Compleating'' Rebbec, which locks the board down.

The Lore in magic, is an entire rabbit hole I highly recommend exploring. Pick a plane and start from there. Find a character from that plane and follow their journey. If not by card, by flavor text. If you're into it enough, there are a series of comics out there printed by ARMADA. The Shadow Mage and Dakkon Blackblade are some of my favorite printed stories in magic, which just recently received cards. Likewise was true a couple of years ago for Yawgmoth and Urza who didn't really see their official name's on legendary cards until 2020 (despite having story presence since the beginning). The Weatherlight Crew, new and old, feel like a group of avengers, using their ship to planeswalk because they don't have a spark, and are simply putting together this weapon to stop the ultimate evil, and you can almost feel the stakes mounting as you scroll through the sets they were released in. From Urza's Sage to Invasion, to Time Spiral, to Dominaria. Now Dominaria United. I believe the story of the cards makes the deck that much more meaningful, but there's something to be said about finding the most fun cards and constructing something nuts out of them.
