MH2 / AFR - Revisions —July 18, 2021

Made the following changes to the deck list with the release of Modern Horizons 2 and Adventures in the Forgotten Realms...

  1. Esper Sentinel for Faithless Looting - This card feels like it was made specifically for Osgir, and seems like an obvious auto include in any white deck that's not running blue. If you're playing white, you play rhystic buddy.

  2. Rustvale Bridge for Plains - Similar to the rhystic buddy, this card just feels like it was made specifically for Osgir. Tapped lands suck, but it gives us more ramp potential to make up for loosing Arcane Signet, and tapping for both colors is important.

  3. Sol Talisman for Thran Dynamo - Doesn't produce as much mana, but the exchange rate is better on reconstructions. This will hold true up until we can make six copies, in which case Thran Dynamo would be better, so we'll see. I may switch back at some point. Sol Talisman does all but guarantee that we can play Osgir on curve when it's played on turn one.

  4. Oswald Fiddlebender for Red Elemental Blast - Oswald is just another card that simply feels like it was made for Osgir. A repeatable artifact tutor can be extremely powerful in this deck, especially when paired with untap effects. I proxied a copy of this guy once it was revealed and ended up winning two different games with him.

  5. Robe of Stars for Mirror Shield - All around better card in every way. Less to equip with better stats and having a repeatable Teferi's Protection for our commander is primo protection.

  6. Treasure Vault for Mountain - Not stoked to loose another red color source along with another basic land, but the switch seems warranted. We'll still have 8 basics total and Treasure Vault just synergizes so well with the deck. With access to infinite mana we can create infinite treasures which will result in infinite colored mana. Not only that but if we add Quicksmith Genius we can draw / discard the whole deck and if we add Reckless Fireweaver we can ping our opponents to death.
