Re: The Locust God

Doing much better thank you! After looking at your suggestions, I did a little digging through all the new stuff. Might have to try some of them out. Some might even be strictly better upgrades to other cards in the deck. I'll have to give it some thought. Any suggestions on what goes or stays is we...

Re: The Locust God

Update 1/12/22: After about a year and half hiatus with life/injuries, I'm finally able to devote time to my hobby. That being said, I'm trying to figure out where I left off with this deck and where I was going. With all the sets that came out since, I have my work cut out for me updating and tunin...

Re: Athreos, God of Passage

After evaluating my mana base, it's acutally fine. It's balanced well enough. So I'm chalking the getting mana screwed up to RNG. I know there are improvements that can be made elsewhere. Trying to figure out more optimal card choices and seeing where I go with this.

Re: The Locust God

Update 10/20/20: Made a minor land swap. Out: Mana Confluence In: Mountain Just like in my Scarab God deck, I've removed Confluence so I don't lose life tapping my land. Shivan Reef gives me the option not to lose life, so it will stay in. A basic mountain is decent filler for the moment. Considerin...

Re: The Scarab God

Update: 10/20/20 Made a minor land swap. Out: Mana Confluence In: Island Dropping confluence purely because of the life loss. The only reason I don't drop Underground River is I have the option not to take damage from it. For now, I'm just gonna add a basic island in it's place. Considering the new ...

Re: Athreos, God of Passage

So after playing a dozen or so games, I'm seem to run into a problem with getting mana screwed or not having the right mana. I don't know if it's rng or what. Also, I feel like I need more card draw beyond what I currently have. Any suggestions?

Re: Xenagos, God of 2x Beatdown

I like this deck. I have a budgety build I've been messing with myself. I notice you got some money cards in the deck and I was gonna ask what budget options could be used in place of the following: Mana Crypt Sylvan Tutor Wheel of Fortune Ancient Tomb Taiga Fetch Lands Also, what purpose does Dryad...

Athreos, God of Passage

Continuing with my god theme decks, this time I chose Athreos, God of Passage with the theme of aristocrats. This deck was built with what I currently own/have extra of and my ideas came from this forum as well as other mediums. Keep in mind this is a very rough draft of the build. I am looking to ...

Re: B/W Aristocrat Brewing

Thanks for suggestions! Based on what that, what I've seen from various decklists and from what I own, I think I might have a list to post shortly in the appropriate forum. Keep in mind it will be a very rough draft and will probably be pretty ugly, but it'll be a start that I can edit from and have...

B/W Aristocrat Brewing

So I'm in the process of trying to brew an aristocrat build with Athreos, God of Passage at the helm. Beyond a few sac outlets and some pingers, I'm not sure of a good direction to take. Definitely not going the Shadowborn route. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: The Locust God

Got quite a few games in this weekend. The recent changes have been really solid and I am impressed. Thanks for the suggestions for Mission Briefing and Underworld Breach . Those two have caused some tilts, specially Breach. Deliberate was definitely the cantrip draw I was looking for. Never felt wr...

Re: The Scarab God

So, I've been mulling over some thoughts. This will be in two parts. Part 1: What do you all think about adding in Rites of Refusal and Lim-Dûl's Vault ? Rites seems on point here as decent counter cause I can could pitch something to reanimate later or get value off of Syr Konrad, the Grim . Vault ...

Re: Niv-Mizzet, Parun - Counter/Burn

I also agree with Valakut Awakening // Valakut Stoneforge . The card is amazing and imo definitely an upgrade for you. It's making it's way into my Locust God deck as soon as I get a copy. Also, if you're considering Preordain type effects, the new card Deliberate is strictly better. Instant speed P...

Re: Kambal, Consul of Allocation

I am able to focus more on this deck now that the other 2 are pretty well established. I've been playing this deck every week and I am having mixed reviews. Sometimes it ramps good and curves out and I will lock down my opponents. Other times I will drain the whole board down, but have no way to win...

What do you guys think about adding Mystic Remora to this list? Too much or pulling away from something else I could be doing?

Re: The Scarab God

Not sure what the problem is, but lately this deck has been really underperforming for me. I played two games online today and missed more land drops than I can remember. Only got to cast SG once (didn't resolve), never activated him, and never really got to do much of anything. The worst part is t...

As of this change the Gravecrawler is finally removed. All that is left are a couple stray zombies floating around that I will eventually replace with...

Re: The Scarab God

There's a Niv-Mizzet, Gaavi and Locust God in my meta(I play the Locust God though). So wheeling will be beneficial to me most the time. I think I'll play around with the wheel idea and see where I want to the extra 2 wheels in at. I think it just might give me the extra angle I've been looking for.

Re: The Locust God

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll have to test these out on cockatrice and see how they interact. On another note, I'm very excited about a card that was spoiled Valakut Awakening // Valakut Stoneforge. This would be great for this deck I think and I can't wait to pick one up.

Re: The Scarab God

I haven't given too much thought about keeping the wheel effects. While I do agree you guys have a vaild point, specially with Notion Thief already in there. I might have to explore this option as well. Maybe Wheel and Deal could fit as well?
