Big Boy Ramp and Artifacts! —Sept. 17, 2021

These past few expansions have smiled upon our shell! I've traded around and finally added in my first piece of big boy ramp!

Out: Chronatog Totem---> In: Mana Crypt

Mana crypt away! I'll be sad to see our friendly tog out of the deck, but it's hard to say no to a free two mana!

Out: Island ---> In: Inventors' Fair

Another utility land! Thanks for whoever suggested this! It searches for any of our artifacts!

Out: War Room ---> In: Urza's Saga

OH BOY this land is great! Makes a token for Polymorph? Check! Search for FRIGGIN Hot Soup?! DOUBLE CHECK! Like this card a lot! May slide in the War Room for an island, just worried about producing blue!

Out: Frantic Search ---> In: Solve the Equation

Tutors for any of our wincons! Just a solid include! Huzzah!

Out: Desertion ---> In: Fierce Guardianship

I only tend to want to counter spells when the big boy crab is out or to stop a game winning combo! I think I've only resolved Desertion once in all the games I've played so far. More often than not, I find myself tapped out. Fierce Guardianship just feels like a better include!

This looks like a BLAST. I checked my Briny Deep deck for potential upgrades but I think you’re well ahead of my ocean deck ;p The one possible spell that could be fun, just because it’s always fun, is Breaking Wave which could bet your blocker back while stalling out at least one opponent. Congrats on a keeper!

Please replace “potential upgrades” with “themely upgrades.” My autocorrect replaced it with gibberish and when I fixed it I had forgotten what I was talking about...seems to happen more often these days...
