Solitude

Creature — Elemental Incarnation

Flash

Lifelink

When Solitude enters the battlefield, exile up to one other target creature. That creature's controller gains life equal to its power.

Evoke—Exile a white card from your hand. (You may cast this card for free by paying the evoke cost. If you do, sacrifice this when this enters the battlefield.)

what thoughts do you have on Solitude?

I am going to suggest Solitude over Path to Exile. I do realize this goes against what an aggro deck is trying to do but it's potentially free and allows you to deploy more threats while dealing with your opponents board. Not to mention it can benefit from the Benalish Marshal stat increase.

psionictemplar thanks for the feedback, but I have questions that maybe you could help me with:

  • Ardent Plea does lack a white-generating land for hard casting, yes, and personally it's got just enough presence that would justify Solitude. I understand why you point this out as a fundamental issue but I should at no point be hard-casting Ardent Plea.

  • I created my deck like this metaphor: as a child, I liked sitting at the top of the stairs and scooting my butt down each step. And at each step, the scooting carried momentum from the previous scooting, eventually leading me to just be sliding down the stairs. This deck functions similarly, where each step and each turn fundamentally tries to carry away the next turn or spell cast into the next, and so on and so forth.

  • I think I understand what the Creative Outburst and Magma Opus are meant to provide back to the deck, however.. it's trading two Mana and discarding itself for favor of only getting one mana back- if I'm not mistaken, to me that reads as mana-fixing and I think I do a good job of that with Temur Devotee and surprisingly well paired with Arena of Glory.

  • I appreciate the commentary and it reveals that Cascade concepts aren't really breaking away from tier 2 anytime soon. I would really appreciate any further insight you could provide since Cascade type decks are not my strongest builds. Storm and Cascade are not easy mechanics to use or work with, so I'll take all the discussion I can get regarding how to do it better or fine tune.

Thanks again for the commentary and I look forward to discussing this further!

capwner I appreciate the help! I suppose I was on the fence whether to have more Solitude or Subtlety because of the potential for massive lifegain for my opponents. With your perspective and support of Solitude, I think I will make that change. I admit Thassa's Oracle was a weird idea for sure lol. My idea behind it was incase I came across a mill deck, but that's fairly unlikely, so I would love to exchange it for some of those awesome sideboards you mentioned!

Geist of St. Traft and Steel of the Godhead is gonna be a big +1 from me lol. I have to ask why only 1 Solitude though? Seems like your best card alongside nulldrifter, Solitude really provides the interaction needed to stabilize against many powerful creature strats, and it's pretty oppressive when you can blink repeatedly. I do like the choice of Momentary Blink for the flashback grind value. I think sideboard hate cards like Stony Silence and Rest in Peace could be appropriate opposed to Wispmare, Aether Channeler and the 4 Thassas which I don't really understand, I guess for the scry value? I'm also a fan of specific sideboard counterspells such as Flusterstormfoil, Consign to Memory, Test of Talents or even the humble Spell Pierce. All depends on your meta of course if you're playing kitchen table legacy with your friends these hate cards won't matter as much but if you're going to FNM they will!

Sorry, one last idea. This one’s a little more gimmicky but also feels like it should perform well against a lot of decks just by being able to grind them down. It will require some savvy piloting as far as knowing when to play the Arbiter.
