That is the correct interaction.

Pramikon, Sky Rampart puts a restriction on the declaration of attackers. Creatures that are put on the battlefield tapped and attacking are never declared as attackers. So unless a restriction was put on who the creature is attacking (as on Kaalia of the Vast) they are allowed to be put in attacking any player.

508.4. If a creature is put onto the battlefield attacking, its controller chooses which defending player or which planeswalker a defending player controls it’s attacking as it enters the battlefield (unless the effect that put it onto the battlefield specifies what it’s attacking). Similarly, if an effect states that a creature is attacking, its controller chooses which defending player or which planeswalker a defending player controls it’s attacking it becomes attacking (unless the effect has already specified). Such creatures are “attacking” but, for the purposes of trigger events and effects, they never “attacked.”

508.4c A creature that’s put onto the battlefield attacking or that is stated to be attacking isn’t affected by requirements or restrictions that apply to the declaration of attackers.

I have Pramikon, Sky Rampart out on the field choosing counterclockwise as my direction. Ilharg, the Raze-Boar attacks in the correct direction but then cheats out another creature attacking me which was out of direction. What is the correct interaction between these two cards

Looking for some theory crafting before building.

quick catch up, I used to play Pramikon, Sky Rampart as a funny casual deck that messed around with combat. now Im interested in all the angels because of miss Giada, Font of Hope. Now I now mono white angels has been bonkers, and beyond that Mardu truly has the access to power i'd like, however is a bit to cookie cutter for me. Hense Jeskai Angels.

With Pramikon representing the Gate of Heaven, thematically not tribally i'm setting out to create a casual but powerful angels themed list. Ive been compiling a list for the last day or so but have reach my extent of adding to the pile before sculpting into and actual deck. any help would be appreciated.

I'm definitely not the first person to think of it xD a lot of people run Pramikon, Sky Rampart in a similar way.

Just because I love the meme of creating a deck that has next to zero creature offensive capability (Outside a few cards), I'd have to say Pramikon, Sky Rampart. I've always loved trying to build at least somewhat usable wall tribal.

When Pramikon came out i was so excited to build a wall deck that no longer needed a rule-0 chat to play.

Outside of memes though, i love Malcolm, Keen-Eyed Navigator partnered with Dargo, the Shipwrecker since pirates are my favourite tribe (If the username didn't give it away), as well as {R}{U} being my favourite colour combo.

seshiro_of_the_orochi on Azorius Forced Combat: Maragar, the …

1 year ago

In the last months, I've become a sucker for forced combat strategies. My Thantis, the Warweaver is a project of love, and I'm currently waiting for the last pieces for Saskia the Unyielding. What I'd like to build though, is an Azorius forced combat deck. I haven't found a fitting commander for that, yet. Pramikon, Sky Rampart is interesting, but feels more fitting for pillowfort. Thus, I've come up with another design for exactly that strategy:

Many forced combat decks already want to give creatures to their opponents. Maragar heavily leans into that, as he can be cast for cheap if our opponents control enough creatures. After that, he basically turns all of our creatures into better Alluring Sirens. In addition, Maragar is a Coastal Piracy for all players that don't hit us, so while he has no actual protection, he'll often stay on the field because he draws all players cards. And players like drawing cards.

---

Besides lots of tokens to goad opposing creatures, the deck would propably have plenty of cards like Hunted Lammasu, Hunted Phantasm, Akroan Horse and Forbidden Orchard, combining these with some pillowforts a la Propaganda and finishing off with more Coastal Piracy and some Flying Men. Besides combat damage, Approach of the Second Sun seems like a wincon that even works flavourwise: Are your opponents stupid enough to fall for the old "sunlight in the deep sea" trick twice? Well, they deserve to lose.

I'd love to hear your feedback on this card. Would you change anything? Is the mana cost to low or too high? Thanks for your attention.

I think the largest issue in your deck is that you are spreading your resources very thin, you are balancing flicker creatures with instant/ sorcery payoff pieces, with a political commander. The reason (I believe) your games are so polar, is because you need to draw into all three pieces to really get your deck running.

First of all, lets look at your commander choice, while Pramikon, Sky Rampart can offer political advantages and protection, he seems less focused on the strategy of your deck. I believe that a commander suited towards your blink strategy specifically would make you deck run much more consistent. Although, this almost certainly means that a change in color identity will be needed, since there's no big blink Jeskai commanders. At best there's maybe Vadrok, Apex of Thunder which can let you recast your blink spells. If you are open to partner decks, then Livio, Oathsworn Sentinel and Kraum, Ludevic's Opus is VERY good. You could throw them in and keep the rest of your 99 the same and see more consistent results right away.

Next, lets examine some of your instant/ sorcery pay-offs. I actually really like the cards like Archaeomancer and Ardent Elementalist, and I don't think that changing them out will bring you more consistency, as they are what makes the deck consistent at all in the first place. After play-testing a little bit I can see their value.

A few cards that I think are slowing your deck down are:

Approach of the Second Sun- Not a great win con in my opinion, one of those cards that is dead early game and late game takes too long to get going.

Ghostly Prison and Propaganda- I am not sure yet, but I think some more higher end etb payoffs might be better in these slots. Maybe something like Glorious Protector (board wipe protection, etb doubles).

Other than that, your deck looks really solid! Let me know if you have any issues or questions and I'll be happy to help!

Happy Deckbuilding!

I made a Pramikon, Sky Rampart deck this month and threw in a bunch of dungeon cards for fun. Just by using the lost mine of phandelver I get scry, a card, a chump blocker and a +1 counter or whatever. It really helps more than I thought it would.

A bunch of the cards let you enter a dungeon as an ETB. Maybe Teleportation Circle, Eldrazi Displacer and Mistmeadow Witch ? Dungeon Map counts as ramp.
