Aminatou the AEthermage

Oathbreaker WUB (Esper)

TCK_Green


Sideboard


Enjoy playing Esper, but love cheating out high-cost cards? Whilst you don't have Sneak Attack, you do have the next best thing in Oathbreaker - Aminatou, the Fateshifter and AEthermage's Touch!

This deck is about getting big dumb things out early and getting ETB huge value from Aminatou's flicker ability. The main aim is to get Aminatou out on turn 3, +1 on turn 4 to put something big on top, then cast Aethermage's Touch to get that onto the battlefield. (Just make sure to use Aminatou's -1 on the next turn to keep it there!)

As this is a slightly gimmicky deck, it only functions if Aminatou is out and safe - make sure to keep her protected, and don't put her down if there's a chance she'll die straightaway. Do mulligan agressively for a low CMC creature that you can plan on turns 1 or 2 to keep her safe.

A lot of the $$$ in this deck is tied up in a couple of the big creatures (Gilded Drake and card:Palinchron especially) and all the non-basic lands - if you want to make this a much cheaper deck, then do get rid of those and sub in your own cards. (Or - for extra spicyness, choose a pile of 100 random creatures that are valid as your big beaters, and shuffle those in every game - that way even you don't know what you're going to get when you cast Aethermage's Touch!)
