Re: Niv-Mizzet, Supreme - Maze Farer / 5-Color Kess

On my deck building I came across Sorcerer Class and Hero of Precinct One . I've been trying to put Sorcerer Class in a deck since it came out. I ran in to the same problem I had with Cryptolith Rite where the tokens generated that turn don't have Haste. Hero of Precinct One is about the same as Yo...

Re: Niv-Mizzet, Supreme - Maze Farer / 5-Color Kess

You have 27 instant and sorcery that are 2-3 mana, with a further 5 multi-colored creature/enchantments in that range, so half of your spells. There are only 4 mana dork in the deck and if they are say Birds of Paradise and Noble Hierarch then you are literally only casting 2 mana spells before you...

Re: Niv-Mizzet, Supreme - Maze Farer / 5-Color Kess

Without a doubt the bottleneck of this deck is going to be mana and casting spells at a rate that is going to be satisfactory. You are going to lose most games with a handful of cards that you just couldn't deploy. This is not a storm deck where you are casting and producing mana with Storm-Kiln Ar...

Niv-Mizzet, Supreme - Maze Farer / 5-Color Kess

Looking to trim the fat from this deck I built as well as get input. I think I'm primarily in the streamlining phase where I'm picking the most efficient interaction and cutting some clunky cards. Here's the general game plan: Get Niv-Mizzet, Supreme on board with an Eidolon in hand to enable infini...

Re: Vadrok, Apex of Thunder - Jeskai Mutate Combo Durdle

Another thought I had; If you like Jeskai Ascendancy storm turns, you can run the Dork Myrs (Gold, Iron, Silver, Alloy, Palladium, Plague) and some man-lands. This might help out with your re-mutate mana issue as well as give you some additional ramp and mutate targets.

Re: Vadrok, Apex of Thunder - Jeskai Mutate Combo Durdle

Hi. The angle of Boros Reckoner combo for this commander is beyond sweet. I'm gonna throw together a variant of this list and take it for a spin. Dockside Extortionist + Lore Drakkis or Vadrok, Apex of Thunder + Snap (or any other bounce spell) will generate you infinite mana if there are enough art...

Re: Niambi, Esteemed Speaker - Legendary Reanimation and Mini Blink/Bounce

Grimoire of the Dead is a card that I've wanted to try, and maybe this is the perfect time while not having access to Blacks powerful cards that do this. Its Legendary as well. Also God-Pharaoh's Gift is a card that I've always wanted to get going in Commander. I used it in a Brawl deck I had and i...

Re: Niambi, Esteemed Speaker - Legendary Reanimation and Mini Blink/Bounce

I'm excited about this commander. I haven't settled on a permanent Azorius commander for my deck chest, so I'm hoping this will finally scratch the specific itch. I've tried Ojutai, Ephara, and GAAIV, but none have been particularly great for my play group or satisfying to pilot. This draft of the l...

Re: Winota, Joiner of Forces - More Human than Human

Got a couple of games in tonight. This deck reminds me a lot of Kaalia of the Vast and Narset, Enlightened Master in how it plays. Not enough games to really evaluate the cards, but I did get Breath of Fury to go off on turn 4 for an infinite with Legion Warboss . Might have just been luck, one of t...

Hi Darren. I just finished up my first brew of this deck. As always, your list looks great. Here's the list I'm working with right now: Commander 1 Winota, Joiner of Forces Non-Human (18) 1 Adanto Vanguard 1 Anax, Hardened in the Forge 1 Aven Mindcensor 1 Cartographer's Hawk 1 Eidolon of Rhetoric 1 ...

Re: Shabraz and Brallin - The Shark and His Boy

Hi. These partners are awesome and Jeskai is my favorite way to play, so I was excited to check out what people were brewing for these two. Your list looks really fun but I think you're a little heavy on the mana. 39 lands and 12 ramp feels like a ton to me, especially with the amount of card draw y...

Re: Niv-Mizzet Reborn - Astral-Living-Genesis

I was expecting enemy bicycle lands, but these tricycle lands make the decision making a little easier in my opinion. You need a certain amount of lands that enter untapped to function. I run 10 Shocks, 10 Pains, 5 Basics and 5 Rainbows. This leaves me with 5ish slots for choice lands, which are cur...

Re: Heliod, Sun-Crowned - Life and Taxes

Just saw this guy, super excited to start some brewing. I think running Stony Silence and Null Rod might be the wrong choice because it cuts you off from mana rocks, your only source of real ramp. You could consider Karn, the Great Creator instead because he won't shut off your combo. Diamond Mare i...

Re: Will & Rowan Kenrith - Sparks of Ice and Fire (Superfriends)

Playing in a "competitive" game, do you feel like you have enough interaction to keep up with the rest of the table? In my version of the list, I more or less cut the extra turn spells for a little more interaction. Otherwise, I have found I can't stop the faster combo players. Do you run...

Re: Will & Rowan Kenrith - Sparks of Ice and Fire (Superfriends)

Hey Darren. Have you been running Mystic Sanctuary? Modern and Legacy have been all over it. Its power isn't exactly a secret, but turning your fetches into Time Warp or Cyclonic Rift is really strong.

Re: Will & Rowan Kenrith - Sparks of Ice and Fire (Superfriends)

I love the primer! Really well done. I have a similar deck that I am trying to tune as much as I can. Your thought process definitely helped me make some decisions on what to cut. I was wondering if you ever got a chance to play Planebound Accomplice . It seems like a way to combo out faster than o...

Re: Niv-Mizzet Reborn - Astral-Living-Genesis

The important part is that it leaves your lands untapped, which means that you can freely cycle. I don't really have much instant speed interaction, besides the Astral aspects. Perplex , Violent Outburst , Sylvan Reclamation , Kaya's Guile , Wear // Tear , Repudiate // Replicate are the only cards ...

Re: Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero - Rain Eggs Upon Them

This is a really cool deck. I've played Sydri Eggs for quite some time now, which enables some other combos - especially with the aforementioned Salvaging Station . Having some experience there, I second TheAmericanSpirit's suggestion. I don't think you'll need as many Finishers, as you'll eventual...

Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero - Rain Eggs Upon Them

Introduction How does Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero work? Let's start simple. Gerrard is a 4 CMC Legendary Human Soldier. He has a strong 3/3 body with First Strike. Doesn't seem all that great so far, so what's the selling point? He has a mass resurrection effect. When Gerrard dies, you may then exil...
