Hybrow on Becoming the target

Wow, you play yours quite different from mine, way more 0 cost creatures. Your Average CMC is so much lower than mine.. Nice.

couple cards i would recommend:

Devastating Summons - you have the option to not sac any mountains.. still get the 2 ETBs before they die

Temple Bell or even Endless Atlas - because of your low mana curve, draw should always be better for your than your opponents.

Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle - I usually use this to target an annoying creature on the board.

Spawning Pit - fairly new add for me, but won me the last game, so cant argue with its success .. lol, 1 for 1.

Hi.

You might want to consider adding some card draw, like Howling Mine , Temple Bell or Mikokoro, Center of the Sea . Nath kind of stops working if opponents run out of cards to discard.

The above-mentioned Sadistic Hypnotist is also one of the best cards to put in a Nath deck.

Also the new Garruk, Cursed Huntsman fits any creature based deck quite nicely since it gives your creatures permanent trample and +3/+3 if you manage to pull it off. And it's not very hard if you have any sac outlets. Mind Slash and Attrition both work wonders with Nath.

I have my own version of Nath here if you want to take a look. Backstreet Elves

LVL_666 Thank you for your thoughts and suggestions.

1. Alternate wincons could be Mindcrank + Bloodchief Ascension or Mind Over Matter + Temple Bell but i havent found room for all these cards actually.
2. This Deck should be a combo deck with some control elements to survive until i am able to "combo off". I like cards like Dragon Mage. It's a sweet card but i think it is a bit too clunky.
3. I've changed the name of the deck to it's original name.

bushido_man96, I did have both Steady Progress and Tezzeret's Gambit in this deck, but I replaced them with repeatable sources of proliferate, and this deck does still have both Fathom Mage and Temple Bell , which are only two cards, but I cannot afford to remove any cards that contribute to the central theme of this deck.

Also, do you believe that I can afford to replace Abzan Falconer with Merfolk Skydiver ? I already removed Abzan Battle Priest in favor of Crystalline Crawler , so I supposed that I could do the same for the falconer; Herald of Secret Streams and Mer-Ek Nightblade , however, are too good to remove, so I am keeping them in this deck.

nerdpwner739 I certainly have. In a much older version of the deck I ran both Mind Over Matter and Temple Bell . Mind over Matter went first due to it's high color weight before I even uploaded the deck and Temple Bell held out until 27 September of 2018 where I replaced it with Mikokoro, Center of the Sea

FYI: "Tron" is not the same as "Voltron."

I usuggest cutting Darksteel Plate in favor of more creatures to enchant with Pariah: Dawn Elemental , Stuffy Doll , and/or Darksteel Myr . Of those three and Cho-Manno, Revolutionary, I'd say the Elemental and Myr would be the best two to run full sets, and then maybe 1x Stuffy Doll for flavor.

I suggest Ghostly Prison over Sphere of Safety because it can hit the battlefield so much sooner and I think On Thin Ice could be replaced with Swords to Plowshares .

Elixir of Immortality seems like a pretty weak "win-con." At least add 1x Buried Ruin . Maybe something more direct like Temple Bell or Howling Mine would be better?

Die4Dethklok on Mystic Crucible of Aeons (Idea in progress)

Blue_Flame Deprive is a good idea. I didn't know that card existed.

That could go very well in the deck, especially if I can work out a way to draw 2 cards a turn reliably (without giving my opponent the ability to do so, ie Jace Beleren or Temple Bell ), it would essentially create a counter lock.

Though, in theory, I should be able to control my opponents plays enough to not need to worry about them drawing a second card each turn, and somehow getting ahead before I can start the turns loop.

Hey, you can edit comments. There is already Narsets in the deck. Totally forgot about her static, I added her for the dig. So, yes, Deprive would work well. I might try that.

Quick thing about Temple Bell : In playtesting I love how it works with Smothering Tithe and by extension Revel in Riches . Also, as it's cheap in many ways, it helps with gunning toward my second casting of Approach of the Second Sun , not that any card draw wouldn't do the same. While it is about card draw, it's, as you mentioned, a political thing.

I know the deck is very light of artifact and enchantment removal. The focus on creature removal is part flavor, part Mathas, Fiend Seeker synergy. Removing Vindicate for cost purposes was probably not a great call, but I'm not worried yet. I really like Cleansing Nova though, for its price, cost and versatility. Crush Contraband has a good flavor for an inquisition as well. I'll eyeball the removal pile and see what swaps should be made.

Queen Marchesa was definitely in the first pile of ideas, but $25 is not on the menu for the first run. Same for Torment of Hailfire and Insurrection
