lagotripha on Budget Discard/Sacrifice lands

2 months ago

There are a lot of cool 'lands matter' cards out there. A lot of the manlands are pretty cheap because there are better options, but work well in a casual Sylvan Advocate Sylvan Awakening list. If you want to lean into land sacrifice, red/green does have cool cards like Devastating Summons Edge of Autumn and the classic Wildfire lists. Warped Landscape is interesting in land reanimation lists as a consistant land engine, but is far from perfect.

Personally, I'd look at focussing on a single strategy and going all-in on it- aiming to play as many lands as possible, or animate lots of lands, or destroy all the lands, or replay a lot of Ghost Quarter or Field of Ruin . I hope you have fun brewing something up.

This seems like a fun deck to play. It evokes a feeling the Vintage Cube Wildfire archetype, yet the inclusion of planeswalkers and Tinker also offer a variety of ways to win. Certainly it presents an enjoyable gameplay!

SynergyBuild on Creating a Stax Ban List

First, what do you mean be stax?

There are tons of types. Often, it is in reference to a few, but there are tons.

Land destruction/land hate is a common type, but it is massive in scale is style:

Ravages of War , Armageddon , Ruination , Winter Orb , Back to Basics , Impending Disaster , Wildfire , Myojin of Infinite Rage , Decree of Annihilation , Cataclysm , Jokulhaups , Tectonic Break , Obliterate , etc.

This bleeds into more blurry lines, like Boil , which isn't necessarily land hate, but is color hate, or Blood Moon / Contamination , which are considered stax too.

Tax effects are plentiful too, Trinisphere , Nether Void , Sphere of Resistance , etc. are often considered staxy, Grand Arbiter Augustin IV , Thalia, Guardian of Thraben , Vryn Wingmare , Glowrider , Thorn of Amethyst etc. are taxing, but so are Pendrell Mists , Magus of the Tabernacle , The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale , Kataki, War's Wage , etc. count too.

Even color hate like High Seas can count in that department, etc.

---

Point is, I've barely scratched the surface of the basic stax cards, not to mention synergies like Brago, King Eternal with Rishadan Cutpurse , etc.

I don't think you can ban stax.

Might drop a mountain for Bazaar of Baghdad . Wildfire should be in the deck already, gonna have to figure out how to fit it in.

If you wanted to get some more mileage out of The Gitrog Monster , Titania, Protector of Argoth , and Turntimber Sower you might could add in something like Zuran Orb , Squandered Resources , or Destructive Flow . Personally I run all three in my Windgrace deck; it adds for great win cons with Titania. If you couple that with Omnath, Locus of Rage , and Goblin Bombardment you can almost burn all your opponents at once if you have enough lands to sacrifice. You could also run Wildfire since that would synergize with the land sacfrifice synergies already in your deck.

Lord Windgrace is a great commander, and you've got some interesting cards already in your deck list!

I can tell that you've mostly built from cards that you have sitting around from recent sets. That's fine, but there's a few things you should consider when building Radha.

First, you want to be putting out a lot of creatures, and quickly. That will allow you to make attacks the first turn she comes down and spiral out of control. To do that, you'll want token producers and cheap creatures. With only 25 creatures and very few token makers, you're unlikely to combo off with Aggravated Assault and Hellkite Charger . Also, you're weakening your cards like Guardian Project by running so few creatures.

Secondly, you'll want more lands. While your commander is a source of mana, you still want to be ramping and hitting your land drops between when you play her and when you go off. Casual EDH decks usually run between 37-40 lands, depending on the build, so I would go up at least 4 lands.

Thirdly, you'll want to reconsider some card choices that look powerful, but will have unintended consequences. Wildfire and Annihilation looks good on paper, but the table will turn on you for blowing up their lands, meaning you can't count on rebuilding after. Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker is powerful, but the table will IMMEDIATELY try to kill you, and rightfully so, when they see it, since the assumption will be that you're running infinite combos with him.

Finally, you'll just want to clean up some of the subpar card choices like Blossom Dryad , Raptor Hatchling , Natural End , etc. Check out the EDHREC page for Radha to see what others are playing in their decks. You can toggle to budget decks in the top right, so you can probably make huge improvements to the general card quality of your deck for $5-10, before you even consider adding the cards that will really make it tick. Good luck!
