Spoils of the Vault
Instant
Choose a card name. Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a card with that name, then put that card into your hand. Exile all other cards revealed this way, and you lose 1 life for each of the exiled cards.

Cloudy I love the suggestions! Let's take that in stages:
-
Persist is a great recommendation and there's tons of options for that: Return to Action which is comically off-target, Supernatural Stamina, Undying Malice, Not Dead After All, Postmortem Lunge, the list literally goes on.
-
Spoils of the Vault is literally meant to lose me the game. What's winning without risking it all for a hail Mary card? ..and why not? We've played the balancing act up until the last moments of the game.. so why not live (and die) a little?
-
If you want to splash white, there's plenty of options to do so! I think most notably you buy back things like Swords to Plowshares so that you can forego dying up against using Spoils of the Vault , and between better life balancing, and (imo) better protection- you could easily play a much more restrained, conqueroring game with Orzhov () colors.
Best of luck in the build, and make sure you tag me so I can upvote and see what you've decided on!

I don't think Spoils of the Vault is that good because you may lose the game if you have really bad luck. I also want to try white in my own version because I think Phyrexian Unlife would really help

Squee_Spirit_Guide Man I haven't thought about that Heartless combo in forever, I tried building that in modern aaaages ago with Infernal Tutor and Spoils of the Vault to dig for the combo cards. Also Grim Haruspex or Fecundity with Simian Spirit Guide and Grapeshot to kill since the Heartless Summoning will remove pretty much all the Blood Artist type pingers. The deck was pretty bad lol but it was fun when it worked.

Have you considered Plunge into Darkness or Spoils of the Vault?

Hey dude, Happy New Year! Hope you're 2024 started in a great way.
I'm stoked that you found a more personalized build that you really love, man! Let's talk about it.
If you're big on Bolas's Citadel, pairing it with Sensei's Divining Top & Aetherflux Reservoir seems natural to me but if you don't want to run combos I understand lol. The Reservoir is also just an awesome value piece here, though. I was really surprised to not see Angel of Destiny in the list, though! More ways to use your life as a resource like Ad Nauseam or Defiler of Faith might be worth considering here too. You're gaining so much life here, I might even consider crazy stuff like Plunge into Darkness, Peer into the Abyss & Spoils of the Vault if you're feeling froggy like that.
I can't remember if I saw Boon Reflection & Rhox Faithmender in the list, but...they exist too lol.
Good hearing from you!

The Price of Power | Rowan EDH
1 year ago
Hey man, just a heads up - Bond of Agony doesn't quite work here. For example let's say you pay 20 life with Blood Celebrant, activate Rowan, Scion of War's ability and cast Bond of Agony where X = 20. You'll still have to pay another 20 life as an additional cost. Not very good at all.
Also, have you considered Plunge into Darkness or Spoils of the Vault here? With cards like Torment of Hailfire & Crackle with Power in the mix, they're 1-card wincons here. Vampiric Tutor, Grim Tutor & Cruel Tutor also have some serious added benefit with this one.

You need some source of fast-mana that can net you into , because having LoTV down turn 0 is key to winning on turn 1.
The next key piece is to have Helm of Obedience come down, resolve the ability with as the cost, and tap.
The fun part is that when Helm's ability goes to resolve, no cards will ever technically hit the graveyard.. so..
..you mill out your opponent and they go for OTD (on the draw) and lose to having no draw.
This works assuming you're not up against a free cast counterspell.

This was very interesting to comb through. My gut instinct said ‘Pick Magus of the Mirror’ too. In the preliminary draft in my mind I missed some great choices you didn’t (like Spoils of the Vault), but on the other hand I’m surprised Wall of Blood didn’t make the list.
