I play Magic. Sometimes too much.

P.S. Most of my lists here are theorycraft/decks I play on cockatrice, if I don't mention I have the list in paper then I probably don't have it (besides pauper decks. I've put together about half of these).

Always love seeing boom/bust. I'm a fan of both Urza's Saga and Gleeful Demolition with Boom, but those nonbo with your wrath a little.

I like Seasons Past combos, this card always felt like an elegant way to enable endlessly looping through the deck. Looks like you have a few extra cards in here though, any chance you'll update it to make the list legal?

Tsukimi this seems a little broken since it triggers for EVERYONE each upkeep, so in a 4p game you get to bank 6 cards and 3 black lotuses by the time your turn rolls around. Might be more balanced if it only procs for players on their own turns?

Have you considered the newer Page, Loose Leaf? I hear this card works pretty nice in cycle storm type decks to find keys spells typically songs and Reaping the Graves

Very cool using food chain to power multikickers, never would have thought of that!

Flashback does work with kicker, the former is an alternate cost and the latter additional so they play nicely :) I had never seen the card either before a couple weeks ago searching for changeling tech. If ur gonna try to brew it I will keep my eyes peeled! And thanks for the very nice words, I much enjoy your contributions here as well :)

Thanks for the vote big B. Have you ever played with that Strength of Night card before? I just stumbled on it, seems like a rather balaamy card and also the best overrun in pauper?

October 2, 2026 12:09 p.m.

Oops I forgot to give it any p/t lol. Let's make it a 3/1 since it's the evil version.

September 30, 2026 3:22 a.m.

doing a wild


Painter's Nemesis ---

Artifact Creature - Scarecrow Gnome

As Painter's Nemesis enters, choose a color.

All cards that aren't in play, spells, and permanents of the chosen color gain devoid.


Let's go back and repeat moo's, I think there's still untapped potential there

"Make to represent a historical figure. Bonus points if they're non european"

Crush Dissent is another counterspell+flash threat!

Thanks for the votes, Vess!

Did the whole card then realized he's still european lmao.


Ötzi, Paleolithic Survivor --

Legendary Creature - Human Warrior Ranger

, : Ötzi fights target creature then becomes prepared.

Fossilize --

Instant (prepare spell)

Choose target creature you control. Until end of turn if that creature would die exile it instead, put 2 time counters on it, and if it doesn't have suspend it gains suspend.

2/2


Repeat!

Could also maybe add some extra green sources like Bonder's Ornament or Giant's Boulder, increasing from 8 to 10 or 11 green sources will help consistency a bit I think. Plunder the Trollshaws could also be considered in the Think Twice/Growth Spiral slot. If you stick with Spiral think about Simic Growth Chamber to inflate your land count and get extra green sources. Again, sweet idea/build! Love the Ambush Wolf.

September 24, 2026 10:47 p.m.

My kind of deck! I highly rec trying Phantom Interference, maybe also Exclude. I have a similar dimir control deck Oops, All Geist Snatch using these and I have liked them a lot. +1

I think out of all the swords you're missing the 2 best ones! Sword of Hearth and Homefoil and Sword of Forge and Frontier, Hearth and Home especially is great to blink your cloud and stoneforge. True Conviction is a classic for W combat decks, a little costly but I think it would be cool here. Stonehewer Giant too!

September 23, 2026 9:26 p.m. Edited.

Dang, I was thinking this would be actual mono- elves perhaps with the new Marwyn, the Clearcutter. Still a cool gobbos deck, maybe think about the newish Banner of Kinship?

p.s. Another fun option is to buy a big batch of bulk for super cheap on ebay then you can make crappy kitchen table decks or draft from it, if you're just playing casually with friends vs. wanting to play a "real" format. I think this is the closest you can get to capturing the spirit of old magic.

AnActualRatPlayer Most fetches have colorless color identity, delta can be run here to find islands.

Or you can just proxy everything, I'm not going to recommend anybody go out and give WOTC money given their current philosophy around the franchise (constantly screw over/price out players, print format breaking cards in every set to sell packs, pander to collectors and speculators above all else, sell as much product as possible with no regard for health of the game). Honestly you can just play the whole game for free either on a 3rd party client or with proxies, and that's what I'd recommend unless you specifically want to get into official tournament magic (which is dying anyways again because wotc design is ruining all of their eternal formats with designed-for-commander slop).

Mine Collapse is cool, never seen this one run. Do you ever have trouble with all the land sac between 4 of these and Fireblast? You might consider splitting them with something like Firebending Lesson just to give more options in terms of costs. Brimstone Volley is another burn card I think is quite underrated, might fit well in here.
