Huge upgrades —June 7, 2017

I didn't update much from the last few upgrades but this one included Wheel of Fortune, Solemn Simulacrum, Firestorm, Sneak Attack, Duplicant, Nahiri's Wrath, Arcane Lighthouse, Geier Reach Sanitarium, and Inventors' Fair.

Starke of Rath doesn't work the way you think it does. Since the trigger that is attached to the Starke token is a sacrifice one and not a destroy or exile it won't work. This is because you can't sacrifice a creature you don't control and by the next end step it would be under your opponents control.

Oh shit, I dare say you're right. That's a shame.

The only way it'd work is if in response to the trigger of it going to your opponent, you sac it with an outlet.

Thanks for the comments on my Feldon deck, Optimator.

I noticed that you were unsure about whether Sundial of the Infinite would let you permanently keep the tokens you brought onto the battlefield with Feldon. I only discovered this recently, but you can. The trick is knowing when to tap sundial. You have to wait until your end step when Feldon's sacrifice trigger is put on the stack, then tap Sundial to exile that trigger and end the turn. You go straight to your clean-up step and get to keep your token. The key is waiting until the sac trigger is put on the stack or else you'll have to sacrifice the token at the beginning of the next player's end step.

Looks like a fun deck.

Your deck has given me a few ideas for my Kurkesh and his amazing artifacts-o'-death!!! I really like what you did here. +1

Looks like a lot of fun. Also, I bet you were so happy when they printed Combustible Gearhulk. Tailor made for this build!!

With the Sundial of the Infinite already in the build, have you ever considered adding Last Chance, Final Fortune which are the cheap versions of Warrior's Oath? Also, props for the Magitek reference!

This deck seems really awesome! If Sneak Attack is in your budget range, I'd really recommend it. It's all kinds of broken with Feldon, but it is quite expensive.

Oh, I know of how well that card works with Feldon. It's been on my wish list since day one.

My decks start at ~$50 (Which typically means no cards over $1) and I slowly upgrade from there. So as you can imagine a card like that is low on the list of priorities, despite it's insane power. I'd generally prefer a whole new budget deck over two monster-upgrades, though I do occasionally splurge. A lot of my most expensive cards were Christmas gifts, such as this deck's Wurmcoil Engine. This deck is running out of upgrades though and Sneak Attack is literally one of the next and last upgrades I can fathom.

I've been tracking Sneak Attack on mtggoldfish for a while, with alerts and everything, and the Eternal Masters version is steadily trending down. If it levels out or starts to uptick I'll snag one but for the moment I'm content obsessing and fantasizing over new decks.

Thanks for the comment though!
