Unfortunately this isn't exactly my deck, I have edited and condensed both my current list and the super-powerful list into spoilers in my previous post to save space.ChocoDude wrote: ↑4 years agoHey Moth,
I just started digesting your pile this morning. It'll take me some time, but I can say this. It seems much higher powered now. Have you played any games with it yet? Also, I'm wondering if you were allowed to break into your dad's collection for those upgrades, especially the dual lands? He he!
Your lands are a blatant upgrade! I like that you added in the Aura Shards and Rhystic Study (it will be targeted quickly), but if it stays...it's NICE!! The bulk of your changes (besides the lands) appear to be with the creatures and spells. That's what I need to digest more.
Cheers!
As well as this, I'm questioning trying to fit both Food Chain and Misthollow Griffin into the deck for yet another infinite mana combo, as now the build has Birthing Pod, which makes it stupidly easy to assemble creature based combos. For example:
1: Have both Birthing Pod and Food Chain on the battlefield.
2: Sacrifice one of the many plentiful 2CMC creatures to the pod, use it to look for Derevi, Empyrial Tactician.
3: Use Derevi's effect to untap the pod.
4: Activate the pod again, sacrificing Derevi and finding a Misthollow Griffin.
5: Sacrifice the griffin to Food Chain infinite times for infinite mana.
This all really seems quite super competitive and might be able to close down games quickly if you've got the right payoff cards for it. We might actually be able to turn Arcades into the High Tier Commander we've been trying to do for quite a while.
Again, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
(At this point I'm questioning writing my own Primer for TappedOut, just to get the deck and its ideas out there a little bit more.)
