So I also run a Golgari Elfball deck, and it is great fun to pilot. Couple cards that are real good:

• Realmwalker - Gives you access to top card of your library, with such a large proportion of being Elves, can give you real card advantage.
• Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler - Gives you ability haste (redundancy for Thousand-Year Elixir) and a limited amount of grave interaction.
• Bolas's Citadel is bonkers in these low CMC decks. Is real fun lol
• Guardian Project - Will likely give you better value than Phyrexian Arena
• Overgrown Tomb - Feels like this land may just be a "will put it in the deck when I have one". Fetchable dual land

Real nice deck, and have upvoted. Good stuff. Be wary of the Shroud effects though from Eladamri, Lord of Leaves and Steely Resolve as you wont be able to equip your equipment (so Sword and mantle), or use The Ozolith, Thousand-Year Elixirs untap ability, or anything else you have that targets your own Elves. I am sure you are totally on top of it, but have made that mistake myself and been fully undone by it hahaha)

Fanning the Flames reusable.

Thousand-Year Elixir and Thornbite Staff abuseable.

So I'm not absolutely sure what you were looking for, or what your budget is, so I just grabbed as many decently affordable cards that I could find and brought them for you to check out. I mostly picked out things that might help you close the game with life loss or give you value from in looping. It's too bad Thousand-Year Elixir isn't more affordable Agent of Erebos Ajani's Chosen Archon of Sun's Grace Ashiok's Reaper Boros Garrison Carmen, Cruel Skymarcher Caves of Koilos Cemetery Tampering Clifftop Retreat Curse of Opulence Darksteel Mutation Debtors' Knell Doomwake Giant Dragonskull Summit Exotic Orchard Fellwar Stone Grim Guardian Hopeless Nightmare Isolated Chapel Mesa Enchantress Myriad Landscape Open the Vaults Orzhov Basilica Rakdos Carnarium Resurgent Belief Ruinous Ultimatum Smoldering Marsh Spirited Companion Starfield Mystic Talisman of Conviction Talisman of Hierarchy Talisman of Indulgence Underworld Coinsmith Wicked Visitor

JoltsOfEnergy on Can I draw multiple cards …

1 month ago

So I'm trying to build around Yes Man, Personal Securitron. If I activate him, hold priority, then untap him with an effect like Thousand-Year Elixir, then tap him again targeting the same opponent twice, will I draw cards multiple times? Or does this not work since my opponent already has control of Yes Man when the ability resolves again?

Of all the spoilers this dude was the most interesting.

Instill Energy and Thousand-Year Elixir might be useful.

Took a look at your list. The maybeboard is a whole other deck! I will comment over there with some ideas.

Answers to your questions:

1. As soon as this was spoiled I saw potential. It really needs haste but a one drop Kaalia is pure value. It usually is dealt with but for a single {R} even if I'm only able to cheat a single dragon it is worth it.

2. Welder is an absurdly underappreciated EDH card. Great Furnace trickery is one of those simple yet elegant MTG synergies. It's in the list to recycle trinkets in the graveyard from Wheel effects.

3. Thornbite Staff auto attaches and grants an easy untap trigger. Thousand-Year Elixir haste is crucial. Rings of Brighthearth {2} for an additional dragon? Worth it! Plus it works with other artifacts, creatures and lands in the list.

4. Madblind Mountain a {U} like effect that has synergy with Sensei's Divining Top. Plus it triggers Valakut.

5. Lotus Vale = 1 Zirilan activation. Crucible of Worlds "fixes" the tax along with salvaging lands that get Wheeled.

Dragon's Hoard really does belong in this list. I'll find a spot for it.

Hi! Fellow Zirilan of the claw enjoyer here.

I like your version, it's pretty different from mine. Love that Mudslide and Blazing Shoal :)

I was looking at your version and I have a couple questions:

1) Does Minion of the Mighty trigger often? I feel it would be pinged immediately.

2) What is Goblin Welder for exactly? What do you send to the graveyard in the best scenarios?

3) Do you get much juice out of Thornbite Staff, Rings of Brighthearth and Thousand-Year Elixir?? I've playtested them but paying for Zirilan's ability twice is rarely optimal/possible for me.

4) I'm confused by Madblind Mountain... What's the shuffle for? And is Lotus Vale also worth it? I feel like a regular snow mountain would be better for synergy effects.

5) How often can you use Crucible of Worlds without fetchlands?

That's it for the questions... But I have a recommendation too.

Try changing Mind's Eye for Dragon's Hoard. It worked for me since it's cheaper and more flexible, despite not drawing as much.

I'll check your angel and demon decks too. Super cool tribes and decks :)

yo, i think ur turn 1 combo doesn't work because Lightning Greaves gives Aphetto Alchemist shroud so its ability can't target itself. Thousand-Year Elixir or Swiftfoot Boots would work but they cost {1} more which borks the combo.
