Rite of Replication

Sorcery

Kicker (You may pay an additional as you cast this spell.)

Create a token that's a copy of target creature. If this spell was kicked, create five of those tokens instead.

How about some tribal buffs like Reflections of Littjara and Kindred Discovery? Also, Clone Legion has a high CMC, but could be worth copying all your Sphinx (or someone else's problematic board). Rite of Replication falls in a similar bucket.

Equilibrium combos with Unesh's reduction nicely.

Also, Detection Tower.

Hi,

So I play-tested this a few times. What stood out most to me is that the deck lacks a bit in win-conditions. In terms of dealing damage to the opposing side, your best bet is currently summoning wizards and their copies with Inalla and then using cards like Impact Tremorsfoil and Purphoros, God of the Forge. The other win-conditions are powerful, one-use sorceries like Exsanguinate and Torment of Hailfire. I'm not seeing much else you can do to swing games in your favor, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

I would advise to add some more avenues in here that will help you win. Make combat with your wizards more feasible by adding Marchesa, the Black Rose. As long as your wizards harass the opponent with the most life, they'll return to the field even if they die during combat (which allows you to benefit from their ETB's again). Cyclone Summoner and/or Galecaster Colossus can be used to put your opponents on a massive disadvantage in terms of battlefield presence. How about using Beguiler of Wills or Havengul Lich to steal whatever you fancy on the opposing side? The deck might also benefit from a few more powerful spells (especially since you already feature several means to retrieve them, copy them, etc. Clone Legion? Expropriate? Rite of Replication?

    Neat deck idea, but I feel like you probably want more mana sources, definitely some more lands (I'd aim for 36-40 for a 4 mana Esper Commander that you 'need' to have out for your deck to work), and possibly some of the Talismans (some or all of Talisman of Dominance, Talisman of Hierarchy, and Talisman of Progress would be obvious options to consider that help with fixing). My issue is that it's pretty easy to just kill your Commander, at which point you've got a bunch of auras that do very little. You can also throw in some cards to help protect your Commander, more of those could also shave off recasting, but remember something like Swiftfoot Boots needs adds an effective mana to the cost of your Commander (where Lightning Greaves does not), effectively adding 1 to her cost.

    You're also pretty light on interaction of some sorts, but I'm guessing you're really, really counting on having your Commander out and stealing the problem creatures, but not everything is a creature in my experience! In White you have access to Generous Gift and Stroke of Midnight, this kind of card can solve a lot of stuff if you're desperate, regardless of the card's type. Maybe removal could be 'Secret Police', ie those who make problems 'go away' forever? I guess you could have Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker in charge?

    Eldrazi Conscription can steal something bigger for you, and make it a HUGE problem fwiw.

    Weird idea, but have you thought about some cards that can steal creatures for you regardless of the creature's scale? Sower of Temptation, Callous Oppressor, and Thalakos Deceiver are pretty cheap for what they do. You might also try something like Rite of Replication or Cryptoplasm, copying something like a Blightsteel Colossus can also solve the issue, at least for you.

    (Also, with Rite of Replicationfoil, you will be able to one-shot the table...)

    May 3, 2024 I started a new quest. Having built 52 decks, I endeavoured to play them all, in roughly the same order as I created them.

    For all Intet's Purposes, Dreaming Dragons won. 13-11. Great game, actually. Jesse exiled all creatures the turn before I was planning to kick a Rite of Replication on Scourge of Valkas. That would have been over 200 damage. Some few turns later facing Jesse's constant Oblivion Ring removal effects, I still won via Temur Ascendancy and Utvara Hellkite. Earthquake Dragon--I cast for 1 lol. Emrakul, the Promised End came out with haste via Selvala's Stampede. It was a relentless Thunder of dragons!!!

    This is all just initial thoughts from a cursory glance, but I’m thinking Rite of Replication is going to be tough to cast, and pulling enough mana together for the Kicker cost is a bit steep to rely on. How about something like Mirrorweave instead? It’s tagged at the same cmc as Nanogene Conversion, casts at Instant speed, and makes all creatures effigies just like Nanogene Conversion (and unlike Rite of Replication).

    May 3, 2024 I started a new quest. Having built 52 decks, I endeavoured to play them all, in roughly the same order as I created them. My first commander deck led by Zur the Enchanter *f-etch* blew out and demoralized my opponents. Rubinia Soulsinger gained the upper hand and all opponents conceded 2-0

    Tetsuo Umezawa's Parachute Pants and Infinite Mana: lost long game to Isshin, Two Heavens as One. Possibly could have won... Tired, two opponents dead, I attacked, which killed me on a board where I was safe after having Cyclonic Rifted and kicked Rite of Replication on Champions of Minas Tirith 2-1. Kess, Dissident Mage will be the commander going forward
