Vivien, Champion of the Wilds

Legendary Planeswalker — Vivien

You may cast creature spells as though they had flash.

+1: Until your next turn, up to one target creature gains vigilance and reach.

-2: Look at the top three cards of your library. Exile one face down and put the rest on the bottom of your library in any order. For as long as it remains exiled, you may look at that card and you may cast it if it’s a creature card.

You might btw. want Vivien, Champion of the Wilds in here as redundany for that Yeva.

SaberTech on Why Does High Fae Trickster …

You see Vedalken Orrery promoted a fair bit on The Command Zone but I've yet to have it survive the first few rounds of cuts in a new commander deck. I think that if you build a deck with a solid game plan then you usually end up wanting a more synergistic card or a piece of interaction that is already instant speed. I do have Yeva in a lower power commander deck because of elf synergies and Vivien, Champion of the Wilds in a deck that also runs Captain Sisay and Seedborn Muse though.

I guess that if I was to make an argument for those sorts of cards in casual commander it would be that since it is a multiplayer format you have the added factor of having to manage aggro from other players. It's something that you don't have to worry about in 1v1 where you just try to make the most optimal plays. In casual commander you have to deal with people with varying levels of threat assessment who may be triggered by particular cards. That means sometimes intentionally holding back cards and letting potential mana usage go to waste if it helps keep multiple people from suddenly ganging up on you until an opportune moment pops up. So being able to cast all your spells at instant speed lets you manage aggro a little better while also giving you more options to efficiently use mana over several turns (assuming that a casual game averages around 8-10 turns).

I believe that High Fae Trickster's mana cost is too lenient, especially when one considers that she completely outclasses Yeva, Nature's Herald, other than having a lower toughness. I believe that the trickster should have a mana cost of cost {2}{U}{U}, rather than {3}{U}, given how heavily blue her abilities are, especially considering that Yeva costs {2}{G}{G} to cast.

What does everyone else say, about this? Why do you believe that High Fae Trickster has such a lenient mana cost, and, as an additional question, considering that Vivien, Champion of the Wilds exists, will WotC ever print a creature card who is identical to Yeva, except that it shall grant flash to all creature spells, rather than merely green creature spells? I certainly am interested to hear everyone's thoughts, on this matter.

Foulmire Knight or Vampire of the Dire Moon are both way better than Tajuru Blightblade, and I think Snakeskin Veil is generally better than Tamiyo's Safekeeping.

I would suggest Vivien, Champion of the Wilds as a possible addition as giving your creatures flash could be interesting when playing against many of the current top decks, and the +1 to give creatures vigilance and reach is also quite relevant.

A creature land or two might be good in case you run into control or other matchups with a lot of removal. Hive of the Eye Tyrant, Hissing Quagmire, Lair of the Hydra, or maybe a Mutavault are all good candidates.

Cool deck! I upvoted a while ago, but it's still a +1 from me!

AkaAkuma on Pantlaza | Do this only once each turn?

1 year ago

Profet93 Yes, that would certainly be a worthwhile consideration, especially since the orrery is in Pantlaza etb discovary range! Currently i only have Vivien, Champion of the Wilds, Monster Manual and Sneak Attack as flash support.

Grends27 on Give your opinion on my dinosaur deck!

I see that Pantlaza is your commander now - in that case I’d recommend Vivien, Champion of the Wilds. Flash means that you get to cast a Dino on each of your opponents turns, so you’d also get to Discover X on each of your opponents turns. I think Seedborn Muse untapa your lands at each upkeep if you want to go really insane with it.

My upgraded pre-con is at Ty-Ramp-A-Saurus Wrex please check it out and let me know what you think - I got very lucky with Dino booster pulls through 2023.
