Crow_Umbra on Terror Forming Terraforming [Primer]

1 week ago

Thank you SufferFromEDHD, I appreciate it. I was fortunate to pick up a Squandered Resources last January for $14. I hadn't realized how much it spiked in price with the recent EOE precon's popularity. I don't think I have seen Infernal Tribute before, but I'll def keep it in mind. Dust Bowl could be a solid add, but would likely have to replace either a basic or a tapped land. Diabolic Intent is also solid, I have a copy or two on hand.

I hadn't really considered Bootleggers' Stash for this deck AkaAkuma (honestly kinda forgot it existed). Yeah Ouroboroid and Mossborn Hydra are both kinda boom or bust, but are a lot of fun when they do pop off. I do like that Mossborn already has baked in Trample, so turns with extra land drops and recursion can ensure that it's erasing somebody. Ouroboroid is mostly for the go-wide, and is more so a finisher than a value piece.

I can def see the case for something like Living Death. The addition of Vigor was something along the lines of, "I have a copy in my binders, and Idk what other deck I'd realistically play this in". Also, I figured the wonky mana cost would be a bit more manageable since Green is the overwhelmingly dominant color of the deck.

Difficult to say what to cut, you already have a synergetic deck, mazirek does is nice to have, especially if you can also make something like treasures from Bootleggers' Stash.

Ouroboroid or Mossborn Hydra don't do much for your main plan, but if you can get counters on them by Szarel I do see their strengths.

On the other hand I personally always end up cutting Vigor, it's a steep 6 mana for something situational unless you have something like chandras ingnition on hand. A wipe like Living Death could give the same result though, Szarels ability can only resolve after living death put new creatures on board to target. Sac everything with greater good prior to living death and your set.

There has been a TON of +1/+1 counter support lately in those colors. The abzan tribe in Dragonstorm had that as their main theme not too long ago. Edge of Eternities gave us a lot of new toys.

-> Here is my deck for some ideas. It's missing a couple cards I want to get like Terrasymbiosis, Ouroboroid, & Haliya, Ascendant Cadet which you should consider as well!

Have fun!

Niko9 I believe that Ouroboroid is such a BOMB of a card, and I agree- it deserves mention for it's utility, but I'm still of the mindset that we are Landdall first, +1/+1 counters second. I still appreciate the input!

Oh, also from Edge of Eternities, but Ouroboroid is busted in decks that can pump creatures before combat step. The fact that it works the first turn you play it can make some huge splashes, and can incidentally make a mana dork or something really big. Have also been using this in my +1/+1 counters deck, but I think it would be a bomb here too.

You're def on the right track KBK7101, since God-Eternal Bontu was included in the stock precon list (along with Korvold, Fae-Cursed King and The Gitrog Monster).

Bontu is solid for sure. I've used it in a couple of Aristocrats decks before. I'll reconsider it as I play-test more, especially if I feel like I need another pseudo-evasive beater.

I want to put this deck together in paper, but am weighing my options on picking up the last 7 cards I don't currently own:

Cards I don't currently own

I'm considering which proxy service is fastest, or maybe picking up a couple of the cards listed here, and swapping the other slots for cards I already own in the next accordion block:

• Nahiri's Lithoforming

• Scythecat Cub - Given the price tag, this is the one I'd most likely proxy.

• Sphere Grid - Def a priority pick up from this batch for the keyword anthem & counters synergy.

• Icetill Explorer - Also another priority pick up from this batch.

• Mightform Harmonizer

• Ouroboroid - This feels like it could probably get swapped for Uncivil Unrest, esp for similar prices.

• Pitiless Carnage - I already have Bontu and Reprocess in my collection.

Cards I currently own

These are all prime candidates for swaps, until I figure out how and which of the others to pick up:

• Malakir Rebirth  ^Flip - MDFC upside

• Evolution Witness

• Pir, Imaginative Rascal or Hardened Scales

• Braids, Cabal MinionGC

• Conduit of Worlds

• Druid of Purification - No synergy beyond having more removal.

• Uncivil Unrest

Other candidates for consideration:

• Managorger Hydra

• Ravenous Slime

• Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider

I have replaced Kalonian Hydra with Ouroboroid, which reduced the average converted mana cost of this deck from 3.62 to 3.60, because the wurm does not need to attack in order for its ability to trigger and also uses the creature's entire power, not merely the number of +1/+1 counters on it.
