estoner on I solved mana screw and …

1 year ago

The problem with the current system is that there are certain opening hands that are literally impossible to win with. If we adopt color screw over mana screw, you could run previously unplayable cards like Prismatic Lens or Prismite to mitigate bad luck. Good players will be able to use Skycloud Egg or even Terrarion while bad players can just play their regular lands and tap out every turn as usual.

Like I said, I'm not sure how to implement this in the rules, but it seems like an interesting variant. If you ever played the video game Shandalar and had to play bad colorless cards because you didn't have enough playables, it feels very similar. It's better to play a mediocre artifact than nothing at all

very interesting deck!
thought about Lotus Petal or Skycloud Egg?
also idk if you have a specific combo in mind other than getting to lab man, but adding in that rings of brighthearth would allow you to do the rings+basalt+SDT combo to draw your whole deck. given you already have the other two, definitely worth including it for the flexibility.
also idk if you are into recursion but Daretti, Scrap Savant seems like he could provide some value here even if he is not an artifact.

I think you would love Lunar Force . Riptide Shapeshifter can be used to fish out Psychosis Crawler. Drift of Phantasms transmutes for Induced Amnesia, Fabricate, etc. Other cards you might consider trying out include Starfield of Nyx , Sun Titan , Open the Vaults , The Mirari Conjecture , Skycloud Egg , Chromatic Sphere , Faith's Reward , Second Sunrise , Salvaging Station , Origin Spellbomb , Tomorrow, Azami's Familiar (keeps you from losing if you draw your deck, and helps fish for combo pieces), Psychic Possession

Consider the following

Nesting Dragon Dragon Egg Roc Egg Rukh Egg Skycloud Egg Summoner's Egg Triassic Egg Mirror Entity Zacama, Primal Calamity Terastodon Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker Chameleon Colossus

Also the Naya Pre-con comes with Seedborn Muse and Trostani, Selesnya's Voice you should be running them regardless.

You have eggsactly 24 creatures, only 12 of which are actually, so you need eggspress the theme better. I like the addition of the nesting dragon, as making eggstra land drops is eggsactly what this deck needs.

Eggtually, I best like the inclusion of Skycloud Egg, as you have to break a few eggs to make an omlette out of your opponent.

Do not worry, I will stop egging you on for now!

Eiti3 on Mana Rock Opinions

Greetings and salutations. I'm here to ask your opinions on whether or not the following cards should be inserted into my Landless and Creatureless Narset deck.

Currently I am trying to make the deck more stable/reliable as the deck is currently "all theory" and only works if you shape your hand to a large degree. Of course, nothing I add or remove will ever make the deck 100% stable or reliable until Wizards prints more 0-CMC mana rocks. Until then, I am here with a list of a few 1-3 CMC drops that may benefit the deck until Wizards helps a bro out.

For now, the deck is sitting at 32 mana rocks, 4 instant/sorcery burst mana, and an Omniscience under the 'Mana' category. I want to bring that 32/36 (excluding Omniscience) up to a solid 40. I feel like 40% of the deck being mana producers would help stabilize it until new cards are printed.

Group 1 doesn't help well with ramp really, however it gives the deck a bit of draw. I would like to similarize these to my 3-drops where the few amount of 3-drop mana rocks they either produce 2 mana on a single turn or draw a card. I like the idea of being able to draw cards when the Narset engine isn't enough. However, I don't know if that is enough to warrent running them and cutting other valuable cards.

Group 2 are the Diamonds, or how I refer to them as "ETB Tapped". I sincerely dislike rocks like this because I can't use their abilities right away, which may be needed to drop another rock or two before the turn ends, but it instead sits there... I also dislike them for when Narset plops them down and I can't use them immediately for cards like Mirari or simply any cards in my hand. Tell me if I'm ignorant and wrong, but I will need examples for my Tunnel Vision brain.

So... OPINIONS! I would appreciate anything blatant and honest, but I would absolutely love examples. My brain is a bit stubborn and is unable to see other perspectives unless shown. Additionally, if you have any other 0-2 CMC rocks, spells, etc (not lands or creatures -boo, bad) that help the deck be more stable and reliable in Turns 1-4, I would be willing to do pretty much anything. My only gripe is nothing 3CMC or above. (Unless they cost less for some reason like Affinity.)

Thanks, Eiti3

You could add Chromatic Sphere, Chromatic Star, Skycloud Egg, Darkwater Egg, Second Sunrise, and Blue Sun's Zenith for an eggs-style finish.
