Quandrix Updates "Add Up" ;) —May 2, 2021

So many new toys from the new commander set! Also, some changes I finally got around to, removing generic "goodstuff"...

CUT: Eternal Witness, Llanowar Tribe, Nylea's Intervention, Rite of Replication, Greater Good, Abundance, Master Biomancer, Muddle the Mixture, Ezuri's Predation, Coastal Piracy, Lightning Greaves

ADD: Wandering Archaic  Flip, Arachnogenesis, Tolaria West, Parallel Lives, Spawning Kraken, Perplexing Test, Oversimplify, Pest Infestation, Curiosity Crafter, Adrix and Nev, Twincasters, Beast Within

Would you consider cutting Migration Path for Abundance ? Seems like you have a lot of ramp, so maybe some filtering would do some good. Also, if it doesn't make you want for more, Maskwood Nexus and Arcane Adaptation are solid maybes.

Hey, you made it! And you made it work; great job on yet another deck

MrXilas: I really want to fit Abundance in here, yeah! It's a great card, and works so well with Sylvan Library... I'm not certain about whether Migration Path is the right cut or not, though. Hmmm. I'll try it for now, thanks!

Maybe an Allosaurus Shepherd Might be a good idea? You might also consider green staple of Beast Within

Blade of Selves could work here, and can be tutored for with Muddle the Mixture.

vasarto77: I can't afford Allosaurus Shepherd , haha, or it would be in here. And on the topic of removal, I'll be adding more soon, but I've had such difficulties cutting already... What would you remove to add removal?

1empyrean: It's a LOT of mana, but that's not a terrible idea. Onto the maybeboard it goes!

I would like to help but I don't know how the combo with Mystic Reflection works.

Arcane Adaptation? Seeing lots of potential "Serpents" here in the form of token fodder.

Snapcaster Mage seems like it would fit in here nicely

January 24, 2021 3:52 p.m.

Heavy-Metal says... #11

and as a maybe Rite of Replication could be another win con.

Heavy-Metal says... #12

also, id be weary of Back to Basics and Blood Moon something along the lines of Naturalize could help?

tom.maxwellmans: Say you cast Avenger of Zendikar with six lands. A trigger goes on the stack to make six 0/1 Plant tokens. You hold priority and cast Mystic Reflection, targeting Avenger of Zendikar. Your six plant tokens come in as copies of Avenger of Zendikar. Each of them triggers again, making another six Plant tokens each (which come in normally). By the end, you get 36 plant tokens, and every time you play a land you place seven +1/+1 counters!

DeinoReborn: I definitely considered it! But it got pushed into the Maybeboard because in at least 50% of games I never end up casting my commander, haha. And beyond my commander, I don't have many tribal synergies...

rylei: Hm, why Snapcaster Mage? He doesn't seem to do TOO much for this deck, though he's a great (and expensive) card in general. Rite of Replication is definitely an option, yeah, and synergizes with the same cards as Mystic Reflection -- I'll try to find a home for it, thanks! It is less tutorable, though, and doesn't also function as a powerful removal piece. I'm not TOO concerned about Blood Moon and friends: I usually end up tutoring enough basics not to care too much, and this is actively meant for lower power metas which run less hate of that type :)

Daedalus19876 i think he has a lot of value, you can flash back a Counterspell or play more ramp, Green Sun's Zenith or even get another Crop Rotation in to fix your Field of the Dead, but budget is definitely a factor, and he isn't necessary.

If you prefer the land enchantments for ramp, and aren't terribly attached to Kodama's Reach , you could replace it with Fertile Ground . It's 2 CMC ramp, and makes the land tap for an additional mana of any color, which makes any of your basics get you both of your colors. If you are looking for a little more redundancy in that area.

Wow! Lots of wincon options! Great!

So, um, I very much like how this deck plays. Here's a summary of how my last game went:

In conclusion, I am a BIG FAN of this deck.

A new combo I discovered by accident in a game -- Master Biomancer, Nadir Kraken, and Elemental Bond reads "1: Make a 3/3, get a +1 counter, and draw a card." It also goes infinite with Earthcraft!

If you're running a lot of tokens I recommend Anointed Procession ! Great card, especially when you run multiples of it.

9-lives: I'm afraid I'm not in the right colors? XD

Oh jeez. I'm so clumsy. I'm sorry, Daedalus19876. I overlooked the color pie chart!

Thats an awsome drawing

My version of Koma is all about clones and token doubling to try and swarm my opponents but I have also been running Mystic Reflection and the results with Ezuri's Predation have been very satisfying.
You need to ramp so hard to get Koma out early that I've had no problems with the mana cost.
A dozen Spark Double 's all copying Koma, Cosmos Serpent was enough to make the table scoop it up.
