Uba Mask

Each player may play cards he or she removed from the game with Uba Mask this turn.

Thanks for the suggestions seshiro_of_the_orochi! I think I have Syr Carah in the Maybe Board of my Moxfield version of this deck. I think I didn't include her since most of my instants and sorceries don't deal face damage. I could see how she would work well with a more spell-slinger version of this deck though.

Uba Mask is in the 99 already, and it definitely is a house lol

Might I suggest Syr Carah, the Bold? She's an easy impulse draw even with the potential for more than one trigger per turn. Also, Uba Mask is great with Prosper.

Uba Mask! Uba Mask!

Oh, and did I mention? Play Uba Mask with Asmodeus! You can use Asmodeus to exile your whole deck and then use the replacement effect on Mask to be allowed your whole deck in one turn.

The decks looks very cool. I didn't even realize how incredible K'rrik is with Asmod.

I can't do Moraug again here, so I'll do one of my latest commanders from AFR: Asmodeus the Archfiend only has 25 decks on EDHREC up until now. He has a massive drawback, that's true, but the synergy with Uba Mask is real. How about this:

---

Create an anthem. Throne of the Archfiend

Legendary Artifact

Whenever a spell or ability you control makes you exile a card from your library, exile that card with a hell counter.

During each of your turns, you may play up to three cards you own from exile if they have a hell counter.

Uba Mask seems great for Prosper. These too: Knowledge Pool, Stolen Strategy, Goldspan Dragon, Disciple of the Vault, Summoning Station, Vance's Blasting Cannons  ^Flip, Outpost Siege, Breya's Apprentice, Chandra, Pyromaster, Flameskull, Commune with Lava, Act on Impulse, Embereth Shieldbreaker, Poison the Cup

Finished my own V1 of Asmodeus last weekend. With enough (or infinite) mana plus Uba Mask , you van cast your whole deck in one turn. I'm irritated the Mask isn'r even mentioned on the decks EDHREC.

seshiro_of_the_orochi on Asmodeus vs. Uba Mask

1 month ago

Asmodeus the Archfiend and Uba Mask both are replacement effects for drawing cards. When I control both, I can decide on which one to apply first to any card I draw, which results in either being able to cast the card this turn (as Uba Masks effect) OR being able to put the card into my hand at some later point with Asmodeus. Can anyone confirm or deny? I have both cards, and my mind is gnawing on a veeery mean black EDH deck. This would be a very fun interaction in there.

Nice list! Really cool combos etc. 2 ideas if you’re interested in locking down the table (as long as your group doesn’t mind). Uba Mask is a great way to keep everyone hellbent, Possessed Portal as well but its a load of mana. Also, Contamination + Bitterblossom can be a game breaker. How has this deck worked out for you so far?
