Spread the Sickness

Sorcery

Destroy target creature, then proliferate. (You choose any number of permanents and/or players with counters on them, then give each another counter of a kind already there.)

Hey there! Mushroom time is party time with these fun guys.

Okay to make up for the horrible pun I'm going to give some suggestions. You have a lot of spore counter buildup here, and these need cultivating time to reap the rewards. I'd recommend more Proliferate to accelerate how many spore counters you can get. You currently have three accelerants, Winding Constrictor, Karn's Bastion and Sporesower Thallid in the deck. How about Grim Affliction, Spread the Sickness, Plaguemaw Beast, Smell Fear, Evolution Sage, and Throne of Geth?

What is Tainted Strike in the deck for at the moment? It doesn't look like you capitalize on wither or poison counters with this deck, so I wouldn't route the deck down that road.

The Elvish Farmer is a nice spore counter addition, but card cost is high for something you can live without.

Would having a Barter in Blood interest you? I've noticed you don't have as many Black cards in the deck, and it'd be useful for more sac opportunities that also hurt your opponent.

I am all for budget decks and think this looks very promising without breaking the bank. Good job and happy harvesting.

OK here are some cards to look at based on what you like:

Quag Vampires, Vampire of the Dire Moon, Kalastria Highborn, Yahenni, Undying Partisan, Bloodthirsty Aerialist

Not sure what your budget is, but Yawgmoth, Thran Physician always goes well in vampire decks since +1/+1 counters are always a thing. You can pair that with Spread the Sickness or Grim Affliction.

Additionally, Sanguine Bond and Exquisite Blood form a pretty nice combo in lifelink decks.

Also, Sol Ring is not legal in anything but commander. Dark Ritual is only legal in vintage, legacy, commander (not modern or standard). If this is just to play casually, that won't matter. I just tend to build format legal decks just incase lol.

Update:

Considering:

  • still think chromatic lantern might be good, should probably run over commander’s sphere

Thanks both for all the input so far!

I see the upside on familiar, it just doesn’t make up for its downsides IMO.

Cuts I’m looking at:

Alright Pyrra and TriusMalarky, let’s settle down now. You’re both entitled to opinions, it’s all good.

Instead let’s focus instead on what to add as additional pws, i’m sure you can both help me in that regard.

I also consider Deepglow Skate a great way to “win”. Any pws on board can pop their ult. Even better: if i drop Jace, Architect of Thought and skate i get to steal any wincons from my opponents as well.

Do you both agree to 37 for land count btw? I see a lot of decks with less but it seems greedy to me.

Also curious to your thoughts on the weaker proliferate cards in here. Spread the Sickness, Contentious Plan, Settle the Score etc are not amazing and rather slow.

@CaptainToll

Thanks :) I’m not sure about the familiar, it only contributes colorless mana in a deck that’s color-hungry, though it does so for every spell, which is nice. I’m afraid it would usually just be a chumper or something

Let me know your thoughts :)

Savage1988 on Bolas superfriends list needs some …

3 years ago

Hey all,

Bolas's Pro-Life Superfriends is my first attempt at:

  • grixis

  • proliferation

  • and planeswalkers in edh

Initially i thought of going Bolas Tribal (hence the commander) because i got a japanese prerelease promo of Nicol Bolas, Dragon-God while on holiday in Tokyo, which i obviously really wanted to build something with. Piece by piece i adjusted the list to be a little more synergistic instead of a theme-deck until it looked like the list below. Very little Bolas left, but probably something that can sometimes hold its own. Still very casual, but I think fun for a while. I think it should work but i haven't played a game yet.

Any feedback and tales from experience from my fellow T/Oers is much appreciated on any of the deck's pieces.

Some questions i have are:

Hi, I'm currently running 29 creatures. Most of them have a -1/-1 counter ETB in order to constantly bring more threats and snakes while controlling the other sides of the board. I can see you added Devoted druid and his best friend Quillspike, that's nice ! Karn's bastion and sadistic obsession seem goods but I haven't tried them yet.

Here's my list, made just for you <3. Hapatra 05.07.2020 [multi]

At first sight I'll make those changes :

Midnight Banshee > Soul Snuffers Midnight banshee kills your snakes every turn and you won't be able to attack with them anymore.

Spread the Sickness > Splendid Agony Makes 2 snakes at instant speed.

Grim Poppet > Serrated Biskelion Makes the same as Grim poppet while costing 3.

Cauldron of Souls doesn't work so well since it can't save your tokens. Best way to protect your board is Heroic Intervention but is a bit expensive.

I'm not fond of boardwipes in this deck since it takes some turns to make a decent amount of snakes. Personally, boardwipe is my main nemesis when playing Hapatra, I don't want to use it against myself. Did you manage to get real value from Gaze of Granite ? I'm running Maelstrom Pulse instead but I'm curious.

See you.
