Skull Rend

Sorcery

Skull Rend deals 2 damage to each opponent. Those players each discard two cards at random.

I combed through the first Ravnica sets and found a few more legendofa, along with a bunch of probably not’s.

Conjured Currency

Skull Rend

Orzhov Charm

Prophetic Prism (the Gatecrash printing, idk the abbreviation)

Simic Charm

Alive / Well (the Well part, obviously)

Wear / Tear (the Wear part, obviously)


Probably Not’s

•All the Keyrunes. Again, I have no idea what the WotC-invented lore is, so I’m not sure if these keyrunes are small objects being held and looked at in the first person, or if they’re something entirely different. In any case, there are no hands shown so I doubt these qualify.

Azorius Keyrune, Golgari Keyrune, Izzet Keyrune, Rakdos Keyrune, Selesnya Keyrune, Boros Keyrune, Dimir Keyrune, Gruul Keyrune, Orzhov Keyrune, Simic Keyrune

Faerie Impostor hand, but I think the angle is too low to be any kind of FPP.

Giant Growth definitely first person, but no hands, only shadow.

Street Spasm I think that round portion under the hand is the top of a helmet, so not first person, but it could possibly be a big shoulder pauldron or something so I’m not 100% sure.

Hands of Binding might qualify, but the angle is a bit off.

Naturalize the angle is also too far removed from FPP I think.

30 lands is still a bit high. My suggestions is to cut four, add a Skull Rend or two, and one more of each of two creatures (you choose which ones).

This deck probably wouldn't survive outside the most beginner-friendly casual tables, but the design work is still good practice. Once you get this one locked in, move on to the next guild--I nominate Simic.

Ogre Jailbreaker's going to have to come out, then, without the watermark. Morgue Burst is only (barely) worth its cost with Spawn of Rix Maadi. The bulk of the creatures should be 2- and 3- mana, and Auger Spree will be pure removal most of the time. Deviant Glee is probably the single best card here. My take on the creatures, tiered from best to worst, is


Best


Filler

Skull Rend is okay-ish in 1v1, Rakdos Cluestone is pretty good, and the Rakdos Guildgate is the best dual land you have access to.

Might I suggest Arterial Flow in place of Skull Rend? While Anhelo is out, it does the same thing but cheaper and with a bit of lifegain. In the same vein, Anhelo lets you reap the full tribal rewards of New Blood and Blood Tribute by himself.

Because of Strefan's 1st triggered ability, may I suggest the following:

End the Festivities is essentially a 1 mana Bonfire of the Damned

Impact Tremors gives you an added bonus for getting vampires on the battlefield.

Voldaren Epicure, if cast after Strefan enters the battlefield, nets you a vampire and at least 2 blood tokens for 1 mana.

Skull Rend and Vicious Rumors deal damage to each opponent and force them to discard cards.

I hope this helps. Happy Hunting!

I'd LOVE to add Skull Rend that I find effective in multiplayer (make them discard 2 cards at RANDOM!), but what card should I remove, then?
