Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER

Legendary Creature — Human Avatar Soldier

When this enters or attacks, you may sacrifice another creature. If you do, draw a card.

Whenever another creature dies, target opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 life. If this is the fourth time this ability has resolved this turn, transform this. (Dying is being put into the graveyard from the battlefield. Tokens enter the graveyard before they cease to exist.)

BotaNickill on Sephiroth's Sac

2 months ago

Profet93! Thanks so much for checking out the deck list and making suggestions! I am always down for some upgrades! I'm not actually certain I have any of the suggested cards, maybe the Reassembling Skeleton, I'll dig around and see what I can come up with. I usually find myself needing more Sac Fodder for Sephiroth to consume, so any creature tokens or recurring creatures I can get would be cool! Strategic Betrayal is just there for another Sac effect in case I run into a hex proof creature or if they have indestructible or something like that in Voltron or Boggle style decks. Not to say it couldn't be replaced with something better. However I do believe it does trigger Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER  Flip, when they sacrifice their creature, it dies.

ALostWanderer -
Saw your help tag so thought I'd reach out. As a disclaimer though: I've never played Tergrid (vs or myself) and I'm still working on my first Bracket 4 deck myself. So please take all this as "brainstorming", not as "recommendations" ! :-D

FIRST THOUGHTS: MANA BASE AND MANA CURVE

  • I love Salubrious Snail's manabase tool for analysing my lands, mana rocks, and rituals as I tweak a deck. If we plug your decklist in, it reports "your manabase is struggling, playing your spells 0.99 turns late on average" (with Tergid over 1.3 turns late). For Bracket 4, you'll probably want to aim for something like "... strong playing your spells [~0.2] turns late on average."
  • As you tweak the deck, I rec' taking an especially hard look at your 5-drops (which compete directly with Tergrid) and your 7-drops (which compete directly with her re-cast).

MORE B4 STAPLES? Some options to help find the cards we need and play them quickly …

MORE DISCARD EFFECTS, MAYBE?

MORE PROTECTION, MAYBE? If you find yourself needing just a touch more protection for your Bracket 4 meta: Cavern of Souls, Imp's Mischief, and oc Lightning Greaves and Swiftfoot Boots.

MORE COMBO PIECES, MAYBE?

  • As far as I can tell, you only have 2x combos in the deck (any lifegain effect + Exquisite Blood + either Sanguine Bond or Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose) ... increasing the combo potential (and Tutor effects, to find the pieces) is definitely solid approach to make the deck more competitive in Bracket 4.
  • The Find my Combos page over at Commander Spellbook is a great tool, if you want to lean into combos more.

MORE STAX EFFECTS, MAYBE?

  • It’s hard to go wrong with the namesake card (Smokestack) in a Stax deck :-)
  • If you wanted to lean into Mass Land Denial a little more, I like both Contamination and Desolation.

A FEW FINAL THOUGHTS:

  • You might consider adding Feed the Swarm and/or Withering Torment ... they're IMO the best tools we have to deal with enchantments in Mono-B.
  • Braids, Arisen Nightmare maybe? I play Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER and she's amazing there ... I don’t get that many sacs from her (so she may not be as good in your deck), but her card draw is always superb.
  • I'm a fan of Malakir Rebirth, as protection when I need it and a Land when I don't.
  • I don't see anything that benefits from Reliquary Tower ... it would honestly be my first drop.
  • It's a totally small thing, but if you don't already have very distinct deck sleeves, you might consider getting some ... the last time I played vs a steal-your-things Commander everyone at the table had blue matte sleeves, and sorting out the cards afterwards was a bit of a pain :-D

Anyways, I really hope something in there ^^ proves useful, and I’m very sorry for the spam if it doesn't!

Good luck (and good skill) with the deck!
Cheers!

Missing "Emblem - Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel" token for Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER  Flip.

Scryfall is blocked on my pc so I can't link it, sorry.

vishnarg on Which Mono-Color is the Most …

Blue is crazy strong, there's so many good commander choices and so many different ways to build decks, control, combo, everything in between. They also have the best artifact synergy by far which is the best card type. Plus it's the only mono color that can counter other combo's, obviously you have access to so many free counterspells, and plenty of good non free ones too. I mean just look at the top 15 blue commanders on EDHREC, almost all of them can be devastatingly good and/or annoying to go against. And imo, green is a close 2nd because of the ramp effects, they're all good. Green is very flexible as is blue. Black is definitely 3rd imo and a bit overrated in this thread, although, perhaps Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER  Flip changes things a bit. He's the only black commander that might make blue and green decks weak, but for the first 10 years of the existence of EDH, I definitely think it was blue followed very closely by green.

Looks absolutely brutal; love it! Very sorry your meta forced Ayara out ... hope you have a chance to play her again someday!

What do you think about Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER  Flip as a Suitor?

Cheers!

Cloudy2024 Thanks for the recommendation. I haven't seen that card before. The 2 tokens is interesting, but I worry that as a 3 drop it would be a bit slow. I am also worried that it wouldn't get triggered that often. Playing it turn 4 with a 1-drop sounds nasty though. Just not sure if it could hold a candle to Delney, Streetwise Lookout or Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER  Flip in that 3 drop slot. Then again, with Delney, that's 4 tokens!

I'm loving it Buddy! Keep working those Aristocrats! I have been playtesting the Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER  Flip deck as well with decent results. I have been craving some Vampires lately, and feel like their time is coming! I wish Sephiroth was a Vampire, and Umbral Collar Zealot, Vampire tribal would be a sick! You have some different cards in there that I haven't messed with yet, Delney, Streetwise Lookout and Vampire Gourmand mainly.

So the second version of Sephiroth got spoiled. If Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER  Flip were a vampire he'd be the best aristocrats card in the game. Might be mainboard worthy. I'm so happy they made a variant of my favorite character who isn't just One-Winged Massacre Wurm.
