grayson290 Yap, Prossh is a huge part of my meta, and that 5/5 Daemon does some work.

Plus, that Daemon makes people think twice about swinging your way.

I might switch out siege commander for priest. Nothing sucks more than being a punching bag cuz you don't have flyers to block with. Have you tried the kiki/village bell ringer combo?

Mishraharad says... #3

Eh, that combo is a bit cheap, so I don't focus on it. Had it in, didn't feel rewarding enough.

Now, making combos with Blood Artist or Anafenza is fun to me.

Simle 2 card monty is eh

For sure what's your opinion on putting creatures that pump your creatures like ravos, soultender, angel of invention, and drana, liberator of malakir?

I like'em, but out of all of them I've only got Ravos and he's kinda clunky for this build.

All of those cards actually rule, but I think they would serve bigger purpose if they went into a Tokens Alesha.

I actually have ravos and drana in my build too. I haven't had a chance to use ravos that much. Drana is cool it just get awkward when master of cruelties is out and behind the scenes. I feel like angel would be cool since you can get a 4/3 flying vigilance lifelinker with an anthem when you bring it back.

Yeah, Angel I'd like to try because of all of that.

And saccing her a few times and getting her back and than smacking with a lot of dudes.

njce I'm trying her out too. Might I suggest eerie interlude. It's works well there are exile board wipes and you get all the ETB triggers too. Kolaghans command is a bit pricey but also good. Being able to save a creature from the graveyard if it getting exile and you get mana dork or artifact removal too.

Dunno man, I'm kinda in the unkknown with the Eerie Interlude. It seems good, but I see myself always drawing it too little too late

Ah seems fair enough it can be very situational. What are thoughts on austere command and enlightened tutor for this deck?

February 26, 2017 3:17 a.m.

Mishraharad says... #11

Austere Command - KILL'EM ALL IN THE NAME OF THE EMPEROR

What would be your top Tutor targets? I must say, having Possibility Storm in hand, and tutor in hand for Rule of Law/Eidolon of Rhetoric seems like a baller place to be

February 26, 2017 3:35 a.m.

grayson290 says... #12

HELL YES!

I mostly go for grieves or aura of silence. I'm thinking of playing rule of law with aura of silence as my hate enchantments. I wanted to ask when you play possibility storm with rule of law does it ever back fire when someons plays let's say a creature and the possibility storm into something like a vorniclex or an ulamog

February 26, 2017 3:54 a.m.

Mishraharad says... #13

If rule of law and Storm are out, they ain't casting zilch!

Also, if they get a huge dude... Well, most of our instants are kill spells, aren't they?

February 26, 2017 10:12 a.m.

grayson290 says... #14

Very true! I might try that out! See ignore it can slow down people too. I noticed you didn't have sword of animist in the deck anymore. You don't run into being mana screwed?

February 26, 2017 5:25 p.m.

Mishraharad says... #15

I haven't been mana screwed in a long while.

It might be my luck and/or mulligan decisions, I guess.

February 27, 2017 12:57 a.m.

grayson290 says... #16

Oh for sure I've been pretty mana screwed at times. My friend popped 3 of my four lands with terastadon and my other friend Jin-gytaxia a turn after so I wasn't doing anything for the whole game :/

What your opinion on zombie infestation as a discard outlet?

February 27, 2017 2 a.m.

Mishraharad says... #17

I don't mind getting the zombos, but I'd use it more if I were a more token oriented build

February 27, 2017 3:09 a.m.

grayson290 says... #18

Oh alright then I noticed you said you wouldn't mind having a phyrexian altar what would you taken out for that. I'm currently running phyrexian and ashnods altar and I dropped altar of dementia just because it wasn't a complete win con if someone had an eldrazi.

February 27, 2017 10:28 p.m.

Mishraharad says... #19

I wouldn't mind having the Altar at all, it would make mana even easier
