Re: Is White getting better?

Along with white's improved reanimation spells in recent sets, I think one way forward for the colour are strong threats that can be cashed in twice, or "reanimate" themselves. Disturb is the most recent example of this, but previous mechanics that follow this principle include Embalm, Ete...

Re: Tevesh Manifest

Thanks for your feedback and interest! I thought this was an intriguing idea and was hoping I wouldn't be the only one. How important you think Silas Renn, Seeker Adept is for the deck? I feel that a WU or GU partner commander might help more colorwise, since there are at least some VERY powerful ma...

Tevesh Manifest

Scroll of Fate Primordial Mist Atemsis, All-Seeing Phage the Untouchable This deck is an attempt at conceptually capturing the sneakiness of UB/Dimir in ways that aren't always captured by set mechanics. The core strategy of the deck operates like so: 1) Get Scroll of Fate onto the field 2) Manifes...

Madcap Experiment and other artifact polymorphs

I'm both fascinated and confounded by madcap experiment , it offers both promise if you design your deck around it. It also offers danger, which can be just as compelling if you like to play with fire. Now, audacious reshapers is the latest in this line along with reweave , shape anew , reality scra...

Re: Neheb Seizes the Day

I've been on such a mono red kick lately, I feel like there's a lot of space to explore even within the last few sets released! Decks like this have so many potential includes, I'm liking these suggestions but as I'm sure you can appreciate it's sooo hard to include everything. Dragon Mage is certai...

Re: Plargg, Reanimator

I know there are some proponents on these forums of Lotus Field and the like for white and WR colour identities. Dust Bowl is another, though with the restrictions set for this strategy the options are pretty limited for sacrificing Flagstones of Trokair . Including Ghost Quarter and friends to hand...

Re: Plargg, Reanimator

Very cool, a lot of credible threats in this list. I think Angel of the Ruins would slot nicely in here for some exiling removal and another tutor target to get mistveil! Same goes for the recently reprinted Flagstones of Trokair.

Neheb Seizes the Day

I overlooked Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion at first. It wasn't for roughly 6 months after War of the Spark's release that I took a close look at him and fully appreciated what a mono-red deck would look like with him at the helm. There is a lot to offer here. A 5/4 trampler for 4 mana is an attractive ...

Re: We need to talk about Plargg

Lol I wish I could tell you why I thought of that, maybe I'm incapable of finding a middle ground between infinite turns and a complete gimmick. Speaking of gimmicks, Storm Herald has fewer juicy targets than I hoped but does synergize with Plargg's discard similarly to the Loyal Retainers plan, plu...

Re: We need to talk about Plargg

Yeah, you have me convinced. All of that is true and a canned infinite turn loop wouldn't hold up long term for a lot of people. Aria of Flame could be a more proactive build around (an alternative to Imminent Doom ), though it points more toward cheap spells, it would need some work to figure out. ...

Re: We need to talk about Plargg

This is very comprehensive, well done! Am I off base in thinking that the amount of hoops you have to jump through to get a two card combo to be the only viable targets off of Plargg justifies the reliability of finding that combo? Like, if my curve 1-3 consists solely of legendary permanents at the...

Re: Vadrok, Honourary Dwarf

These are really cool ideas and I got to say I like the direction you took Vadrok. Having a small self-bounce package for Vadrok and Stich in Time is really tempting but I'm worried about the deck becoming all about that if I start including Thalakos Scout , etc. which have such a specific purpose. ...

Re: Vadrok, Honourary Dwarf

Actually running lands that create tokens can be a way of building up tokens in the absence of additional action; Castle Ardenvale , Dwarven Mine , Field of the Dead , Kher Keep , Kjeldoran Outpost , Springjack Pasture , Westvale Abbey . I made my stock mana base without really tailoring it to this...

Re: Vadrok, Honourary Dwarf

I freaking love this deck idea! I think a Stoneforge Mystic would be a solid include at this point given you have Spy Kit as a Key card along with Blade of Selves and Helm of the Host for getting your dwarves out there. Other thoughts I had was Time Stop , Discontinuity , and Sundial of the Infinit...

Vadrok, Honourary Dwarf

This is a Mirrorweave deck, a Mirror March deck, and ultimately, a Seven Dwarves deck. These 9 cards are the core what I'm trying to accomplish. My choices for this list are predicated on getting as many creatures, token and non-token, and converting them into Dwarves, and swinging in! Fairly straig...
