Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

Another cool "trick" is that if you need the land early, you can play it "flipped" and then later use something like Ghostly Flicker to blink it, it will come back as Glasspool Mimic.

Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

Any thoughts on running Gemstone Caverns? I've been tuning my decks lately and realized that any time I run Chrome Mox, I should probably be running Caverns too. I don't think the extra colorless source is that bad for this deck. I would run it over something like Nykthos, since we are weaker in the...

Re: Maelstrom Wanderer a.k.a. The Kool-Aid Man

That's fair. The deck is definitely pretty mean. Out of curiosity, I checked my deck's salt score on EDHREC, and it's literally the saltiest MW deck with a score of 100+ lol. I'll have to find a spot for Kogla then. List is so tight though. Maybe Rhystic Study? Clever Impersonator? Teferi is super s...

Re: Maelstrom Wanderer a.k.a. The Kool-Aid Man

Two other cards I really like are Treasonous Ogre and Imperial Recruiter . Ogre generates obscene amounts of mana to get your plays often a turn sooner. It's baseline is essentially a Thran Dynamo, which is still one of our better ramp pieces. Recruiter fetches everything from Dockside to Selvala, M...

Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

Ah, I don't usually play online (which unfortunately means I haven't jammed many games recently :( ), so I wasn't aware. It's absolutely fantastic in Zirda My personal philosophy with this deck is a slow control deck that lays low until my CA engine is online and solidly protected by my spell-recurr...

Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

Another card to consider is Ranger-Captain of Eos . Tutors Ballista and offers protection during the combo turn. Recurrable with Sun Titan to prevent other people comboing/wrathing on a critical turn. We don't have much of a 1 mana creature package unfortunately. One thing I do dislike is that if Ba...

It's really hard to find slots these days anywho.
Truer words have not been spoken. When I need slots, what I've done multiple times is scratch the list completely and rebuild it with what I remember as the absolute essentials. I've done so twice with Ephara now.

Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

I never got around to adding this to my list. I prefer Unexpectedly Absent so I don't need to give them a creature. And I actually cut Cavalier of Dawn (for now anyway) due to space and because it gave them a creature. I do agree that it is a solid card and if you are trying to protect combos it mi...

Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

Thanks for the feedback guys! I love discussion like this. Familiar's Ruse: this card is mostly a carry-over from the budget days but in a lower-power environment, it's allowed me to rebuy my Archaeomancer (somewhat of a lock for 6 mana a turn), Spellseeker/Recruiter. In an environment where I'm exp...

Re: Ephara, God of the Polis - Flash & Taxes

Hi all, I love Ephara as a commander and wanted to share my decklist as I've been lurking around this thread for while now. It's been a great resource and place for discussion. I've never posted on Nexus before (more active on reddit and Discord, but haven't found any good resources for Ephara speci...
