Man my finger just wants to report people. Are you sure this is a deck and not AI generated spam?
So enchantress effects and cheap enchantments are a thing again I guess. This one is basically a grab bag of all the random %$#% people have been doing since
Verduran Enchantress and
Rabid Wombat. It's
Pyromancer Ascension but selesnya, much %$#%, and trying to look different by attacking uninteractively instead of shooting face uninteractively.
Pro tip. If the theme of your deck is casting all your spells in one turn and winning without anyone being able to do anything about it, you suck. And this is another in a long line of stupid storm decks going "hey uh, you guys might want to download words with friends or something this is
going to be a minute."
The best part about this deck is that instead of just winning it kills one person then dies to a sweeper. It's the best kind of traditional flame out deck that ruins someone else's night and forces two people to play 1V1 while two people de facto sit out.
A few things confuse me about this deck. It completely eschews the good cards that sometimes allow enchantress decks to dig out of
Hour of Revelation like
Replenish in favor of...losing.
A good way to know when a deck is a complete mess put together by trolling edhrec for cards that the bots thing are synergistic is a ramp package consisting almost entire of cost reducers that affect six cards in your deck. Of course we have the usual pile of land auras that cross their fingers and hope no one is playing
Wasteland these days. You can tell a deck is really well put together when it has to rely on whining about being targeted to maintain its ramp.
The author is somehow too good for
Serra's Sanctum and
Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx despite playing a lot of good cards. Explosive mana being a hallmark of enchantress storm decks I have to assume this is an act of saintly kindness rather than just sucking.
I'm kind of a ramp package guy so I'm going to go on a bit of a rant about one specific inclusion. What the actual %$#% does
Exploration do in this deck? Turn one ramp into...nothing. Turn two out of lands and play my commander because I'm on 32 lands and have no draw except for my commander. So I turn 2 sythis and miss a land drop.
Your commander costs 2.
Elvish Spirit Guide is going to be better like always.
And let's not even get into late game sequencing with
Exploration in this deck. It's basically a free enchantment but in your combo turn a simple pump aura is going to be better almost every time.
I think this card's inclusion is proof positive that this deck builder is in fact an AI troll deployed by edhrec to annoy me specifically. I hate it.
Does the author know that
Chrome Mox or
Lotus Petal would allow a turn one Sythis? No. Because it's a damned bot and it doesn't say enchantment on
Lotus Petal.
Further evidence that this is an AI is the 8 instants almost entirely interactive spells. I believe this to be an AI that has evolved from the original 8x8 worm. This thing has gotten ridiculous and is forcing 8 of each basic due to legacy code. This is despite the deck clearly needing green on turn one every game to support
Utopia Sprawl and more forests as well.
The last thing I want to talk about is the inclusion of
Eidolon of Countless Battles in a deck with like 19 creatures and no desire to ever have more than 3 or 4 on the board at a time (well unless you play it like I assume the author does by dumping your entire hand, passing turn and planning to get 'em on the next one).
(Editors note: this deck sucks so bad it made me forget how to read
Eidolon of Countless Battles )
Four mana for a small body and a measly +3/3 typical pump is just so godawful bad. This card sucks and the is deck sucks. You could replace this card with
Armillary Sphere and it would make the deck better that's how %$#% it is.
I feel attacked by this deck. It sucks. I can imagine playing against it and I don't want to. It's like storm without ever winning.
You can play Timesifter if you want but I won't tell you it's okay
