Re: Karador, Ghost Chieftain - Quest for Control
Chalk Outline uncertain about this one. 4cmc but pseudo draw engine and a blocker/fodder generator. I'll test it. I mentioned that I had some interest for Chalk Outline , but I totally missed that Insidious Roots is overall better: easier to cast, also gives tokens, but they ramp and grow, instead ...

Re: Sidisi, Undead Vizier and Roaming Throne
Exploit is a triggered ability (it uses "When" in the Rules Text and Reminder Text). Thus, Throne will cause the Exploit trigger to trigger twice. Assuming that you do not Sacrifice Sidisi to the first trigger to resolve, each trigger you sacrifice a creature to will also cause her "W...

Re: Magus Lucea Kane
I tried this deck out before trying out any of the changes above. I played against Zhulodok, Void Gorger , Elesh Norn // The Argent Etchings , Aragorn and Arwen, Wed . Start of Summary I started off with a few lands in hand but no real ramp. I cast Coiling Oracle to try to get a land and I did hit o...

Re: Lord Windgrace
Got a game in online. I played against The First Sliver , Etrata, Deadly Fugitive , and Ravos, Soultender & Ludevic, Necro-Alchemist partners. Start of Summary I started off with a bit of ramp and turn 3 was Kodama's Reach into a Blasphemous Act . This was a little early the other 3 commanders w...

Re: Mutate vs Elesh Norn, mother of machines
Sure. Nothing is entering the battlefield when something Mutates. The permanent already on the field is changing in some way but that doesn't mean Nethroi is entering the battlefield. Since the trigger is on the existing permanent mutating and not something entering, Elesh Norn has nothing to stop.

Re: SCD: Humble Defector
Mookie Dunadain Unless I am misreading something, it says "When you do....". Which probably doesn't make much of a difference but it does mean it is a reflexive trigger vs a clause in the ability to do something. If you activate it and then activate it again, the most recent activation re...

Re: Magus Lucea Kane
After thinking more on tweaking the deck to add in some additional answers I am also thinking of trying to move a little more away from the counters stuff. Not too much but there are some good options out there that could be a little better for the deck. Here is my initial thought on where to go fir...

Re: Magus Lucea Kane
I finally ran this deck with Magus Lucea Kane at the helm and it worked, sort of. The deck actually performed extraordinarily well all things considered. The problem was that 2 players scooped very early so I was just playing 1v1 and the deck I was playing against was Muldrotha, the Gravetide which ...

Re: Magus Lucea Kane / Surrak Dragonclaw
So, by pure chance I found out that Warhammer 40k decks finally released on Magic Online. Which means this deck can finally function as it is meant to function with Magus Lucea Kane at the helm. It also means The Swarmlord is available to be added to the 99 which I think is a relevant card for the d...

Re: Sheoldred, the Apocalypse
I can agree with you on Polluted Bonds. It felt like a good one to go with to just add to incidental drain which I sort of liked for a direction for Sheoldred. I haven't played her in a while and haven't really gotten to try out Bonds much because of it. I can certainly look at that as a flex spot a...

Re: Lord Windgrace
Cut Silverback Gorilla for Ojer Kaslem in both Windgrace and Karador. Should give you multiple opportunities to see that one. Just noticed the overlap in cuts and adds to these two lists :). How has Wrenn and Seven been for you? I had one on my wish list but haven't pulled the trigger on it yet. Yo...

Re: Karador, Ghost Chieftain - Quest for Control
I gave this a spin. I played against Anzrag, the Quake-Mole and Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker . The fourth scooped on turn 3. Start of Summary I started with a couple lands and no ramp (this is similar to my Morska game). I still had decent cards in hand so I kept it though it might have been a mistak...

Re: Pia Nalaar, Consul of Revival
I decided to try this deck out online to see how the changes are working. It wasn't the best game since two people scooped very early on but I was at least able to see a few things the deck could do. I basically ended up playing 1v1 against Nalia de'Arnise , Start of Summary I started with 2 lands a...

Re: Varina, Lich Queen
Lol, I was just hyping up the surveil lands in the unreleased and new card thread, I think they're phenomenal, even better than triomes and certainly better than the bicycle lands but try them for yourself. Notably though, they have diminishing returns, so probably just start with one and take note...

Re: Varina, Lich Queen
That is a fair point. I can certainly be wrong on them as well as a whole. Fetchable alone provides a lot of utility. I suppose if I am going to try them out anywhere, I might as well start here and see how Undercity Sewers works out. From there I can determine where I want to go with other decks. T...

Re: Varina, Lich Queen
That's fair. I know Surveil can be useful but I am just cautious about how much an always ETB land is going to affect the curve. And I like the Bicycle and Tricycle lands above this since drawing a card is better than Surveiling. Of course, with these we get the land *and* the Surveil whereas with t...

Re: Rankle and Torbran
Witch-King is pretty generic in this deck and isn't the greatest fit overall. Rakdos is a little better option for the deck even with being 1 more mana. I am not sold on Rakdos either but it seems to fit a bit better anyway.

Agreed. And the gap is just getting wider and wider each year. All of Doctor Who, for example, is missing online. And I don't think there is anything in that set that really stands out as being impossible to implement. They just don't have the time. Which sucks quite a bit for people that like to us...
