DemonDragonJ on Diabolical Machinations

I have replaced Thought Collapse and Undermine with Archmage's Charm and Disallow, since I feel that the newer cards are generally superior to the previous two.

I have replaced Brainbite and Time Warp with Make an Example and Syphon Flesh, since the newer cards better fit the theme of this deck; I also plan to replace Undermine, but I am not certain with what care I shall replace it.

I have replaced Brainbite, Time Warp, and Undermine with Make an Example, Syphon Flesh, and Psychic Strike, since the latter cards better fit the theme of this deck; I also plan to eventually replace both Plasm Capture and Simic Charm, since I feel that those cards do not fully fit the theme of this deck, either.

For 8 colorless as opposed to 1 and a white... But I get it. Your mana pool is tight.

Big fan of Isochron Scepter. Got my vote. Would Orim's Chant be the wrong direction for this deck?

If you go the Dimir direction please run planeswalkers and more enchantments Undermine and Countersquall! Vile Consumption!

I do too. There is a beauty to how both of these flow. They both efficiently establish control they just go about it in slightly different ways. I will be using one of them in a future prize tournament.

Absorb/Dovin's Veto to Undermine/Countersquall

Celestial Colonnade to Creeping Tar Pit

Helm of Obedience works as a win condition in both lists off of different enchantments.

This has been a stellar month for deck design. I'm still goldfishing the Numot list. Winning with animated mana rocks after nuking all lands is awesome.

DemonDragonJ on Eislinda and Vernalia

1 year ago

I have designed my own character inspired by the Snow Queen from Hans Christian Anderson’s fairy tale of the same name, a rival for her, as well as several cards associated with each of them. I assure the users here that my posting of an ice queen shortly after WotC revealed theirs is pure coincidence, as I had this idea in my head for some time, but simply never had sufficient free time to post it, before now, so here is what I have produced.

Eislinda, the Ice Queen Show

Eislinda represents calm logic and deliberate, methodical action, as evidenced by how her ability is an activated ability, and her name contains the word "eis," which is German for "ice."

Eislinda's Disdain Show

This card is a smaller version of Punish Ignorance in the same way that Countersquall is a smaller version of Undermine.

Icy Rebuke Show

I modeled this card after non-blue counterspells, such as Dawn Charm and Rebuff the Wicked, because I found those spells to be too limited but I do not believe that this spell is too powerful or a color pie break, since it still is fairly limited in what it can do.

Eisheim, the Frozen Palace Show

Most utility lands do not produce colored mana, so I wished to make one that did, and I ensured that it also had an ability for each color of mana that it could produce. I hope that this land is not too powerful, but, if it is, I certainly would appreciate feedback on how to better balance it.

Now that I have displayed Eislinda and cards associated with her, I shall introduce her rival.

Vernalia, Herald of Spring Show

Vernalia is the opposite of Eislinda; she represents growth, rebirth, and passion, while Eislinda represent death, darkness, and apathy, but she also represents instinct, intuition, and unconscious action, as demonstrated by her abilities being triggered abilities, while Eislinda's abilities are activated abilities. Her name contains the word "vernal," which is Latin for "of, or relating to, Spring."

Vernalia's Grasp Show

I am very surprised that WotC has not yet printed a card that combines Artifact Mutation and Aura Mutation, so I have made such a card, and I feel that it is perfectly balanced at costing 3 mana, while the other two cards have a combined mana value of 4.

Grunwald, Cradle of Spring Show

I had contemplated having the green ability put a +1/+1 counter on a creature, but that would require that there be a creature on the battlefield, so I changed it to always be useful. "Grunwald" is German for "green forest," which, I suppose, is somewhat redundant, in the context of this game.

What does everyone else say about these cards? I spend a great amount of time and effort designing them, so I welcome any feedback that anyone has to offer!

Remember that you are an aggro deck. As such, you want to lower your mana curve. You don't want to give up on card advantage, but you are willing to ignore life gain and pay some life instead.

DemonDragonJ on How Can I Put Ertai …

2 years ago

I plan to put the new Ertai Resurrected into these three decks, since he is very versatile, and those decks support his colors, but I am not certain which cards to remove to make room for him.

I most likely shall have him replace an exisitng counterspell, such as Disallow or Undermine, since he renders such spells redundant.

What does everyone else say about this? How can I put Ertai resurected into my decks?
