As this enters, you may exile two creature cards from any graveyard. If you do, this enters as a copy of one of those cards with a number of additional +1/+1 counters on this equal to the power of the other card.

hyalopterouslemur on Rules Committee Gives Up Managing …

I miss the way they did precons. In the original precons, all the psychographs were represented. (Johnny would have a field day with all but the Mardu deck.) Here's how they stacked up:

Kaalia of the Vast Timmy and Spike

Tariel, Reckoner of Souls Timmy

Basandra, Battle Seraph Spike

Riku of Two Reflections Timmy and Johnny

Animar, Soul of Elements Timmy and Spike

Edric, Spymaster of Trest Spike

Ghave, Guru of Spores All three (Johnny likes the "combos with anything" nature of Ghave; Spike likes the sac outlet and the fact that you can use any +1/+1 counter for Ghave's abilities; Timmy likes an army of mushroom people.)

Karador, Ghost Chieftain Spike

Vish Kal, Blood Arbiter Spike

Zedruu the Greathearted *f-etch* Johnny

Ruhan of the Fomori Spike

Nin, the Pain Artist Johnny and Spike

The Mimeoplasm Johnny and Spike

Damia, Sage of Stone Spike

Skullbriar, the Walking Grave Timmy and Spike

Not that it was all Timmy and Johnny; the first precons did include a reprint of Skullclamp after all.

Look at the last precons? All eight of the new legends were designed for Spike. Where's the room for creativity on the part of players?

I admit that some of the changes to EDH have been fine. (I joke that nobody used instants before 2014. Which is somewhat true, people were more concerned with card advantage with their answers than they were with actual, you know, answers.) But I would like some legends to be designed for Johnny or Timmy.

Okay, thanks. That makes more sense. I forgot unmodified precons. Which is funny, since I ran the unmodified The Mimeoplasm deck at the original Commander release. (The days when most precons were about Johnny.)

DemonDragonJ on Mortality Spear or Drag to …

2 months ago

I have a copy of Mortality Spear in four different EDH decks of mine, but I am wondering if I should replace those copies with Drag to the Roots from Duskmourn.

I am confident that my Meren of Clan Nel Toth and Teneb, the Harvester decks have a sufficient focus on gaining life that I shall be able to reliably cast Mortality Spear for its reduced cost; The Mimeoplasm deck has no way to gain life outside of Ravenous Squirrel, but does actively encourage me to put cards into my own graveyard, so I should be able to reliably cast Drag to the Roots for its reduced cost, in that deck, so I shall replace Mortality Spear with it; the only deck about which I am uncertain is my Kresh the Bloodbraided deck, since that deck neither has sufficient ways to gain life nor actively encourages me to put cards into my own graveyard, so either card would be equally valid in this deck, in my mind.

What does everyone else say abut this? Should I keep Mortality Spear in my Kresh deck, or replace it with Drag to the Roots?

To your request for "obscure" card suggestions: I love to put Thought Gorger in graveyard-based decks. In this deck it would be an easy way to dump your hand into the graveyard, and then if The Mimeoplasm becomes a copy of it then it will have built-in trample and will draw you a bunch of cards if someone removes it (the +1/+1 counters that Mimeoplasm adds to itself will count for the last ability).

DemonDragonJ on How Can I Put Baylen …

Tsukimi, I perfectly understand that, and I certainly hope that I did not sound rude, either, because I definitely did not wish to appear that way.

TheOfficialCreator, yes, Twisted Justice is expensive, but I thought that it was a good choice for The Mimeoplasm, and I suppose that I can remove Temple Bell from one of my decks, since Baylen is a far better fit for the theme of that deck.

DemonDragonJ on How Can I Put Baylen …

5 months ago

I absolutely must put Baylen, the haymaker into my Ghired, Conclave Exile EDH deck, but I am not certain which card I should remove to make room for him, so I would like to ask for advice on that subject.

Every creature in this deck is too good to remove, so I am contemplating replacing either Commander's Sphere or Temple Bell, since Baylen performs the same functions as them, with additional abilities.

Similarly, I must find a way to to put Glarb, calamity's augur into my The Mimeoplasm EDH deck, and I believe that Baleful Strix is the best candidate for replacement, since Glarb also has deathtouch; actually, I just noticed Glarb's ability specifies "spells with mana value 4 or greater," but I should have a sufficient number of spells that meet that criteria to justify putting Glarb into that deck.

What does everyone else say about this subject? How can I put Baylen and Glarb into my decks?

DemonDragonJ on Should I Keep Fungal Shambler …

legendofa, FormOverFunction, I am very glad that you both are fond of some of the creatures that I am contemplating, but I certainly would be interested in hearing other suggestions, as well; what are some other creatures that would would fit this deck's theme (i.e., getting as many cards as possible into my opponents' graveyards, so that I can steal creatures from them with The Mimeoplasm)?

DemonDragonJ on Should I Keep Fungal Shambler …

5 months ago

I have an EDH deck with The Mimeoplasm as its general, and I have both Fungal Shambler and Kheru Lich Lord in that deck, but I am not certain if I should keep those cards in that deck, since I am not certain how well they work with the theme of the deck, so I certainly would appreciate any feedback that anyone here can offer any feedback, on this matter.

I am contemplating those creatures with creatures such as Indulgent Tormentor, Demon of Loathing, or Sheoldred, Whispering One, but I certainly would be interested to hear any other suggestions that other users of this forum may have to offer.

What does everyone else say about this? Should I keep Kheru Lich Lord and Fungal Shambler in my The Mimeoplasm EDH deck, or replace them with creatures that better fit the theme of the deck?
