I think you could also consider Winota, Joiner of Forces with a hatebear shell. This will play quite differently, and you can include various hatebears to slow down combo decks whilst having a clock and not going full stax. As some others have mentioned, UW control could be something worth consideri...

Especially in this day and age, where most people are trying to win in a single turn rather than eliminate their foes one at a time, by beating them to death as Richard Gardfield intended. If someone wants to say "SR sucks because it's bad at 1v1" then like...sure, if that's a thing that ...

Very relevant: Gavin + Ari talking about White (in Strixhaven, EDH, and elsewhere) Some highlights: If white can set a rule to prevent something, it can also draw cards / generate treasure if that rule is broken (ex: Rule of Law → Monologue Tax / Mangara of Corondor ) Professor of Symbology - white...

[*] Scholarship Sponsor - I'm looking forward to playing this in non-green white decks. I think it will not be difficult to get the most out ornithischians spell, even if one or two opponents also profit a bit. I look forward to playing it with Scorched Ruins and Lotus Field [*] Archaeomancer's Map ...

My top ten in no particular order ( I definitely missed a couple) Intuition - I have always liked the choices and gameplay this enables, and the designing of the right piles for the situation. Life from the Loam - a very strong engine and is also very versatile High Market - it's relatively low impa...

I think this fits very closely the definition of a 101th card. Quite playable, will never be actively bad with cycling, but never makes it into the main deck (except in a cycling archetype).

I would not be against banning tutors per se as they lead to slower gameplay and higher consistency, and therefore less variety in games and a greater tendency to focus on (infinite) combos. That said, the problem with banning tutors is that the impact on the format is very lopsided as the two best ...

With respect to the questions, I think indeed you will struggle for space with both Sunforger and Salvaging Station packages. I think the second has more synergy with your deck, and without ways to make more use of Sunforger (equip cost reducers, etc.) it will be a slow engine in any case. Cutting S...

Archaeomancer's Map seems like a strong card indeed. Having a floor as a slow Tithe is fine, and if there's a green ramp player at the table it can ramp you quite a bit too. I also like how it plays well with the other land search effects in white, in particular Weathered Wayfarer , where you could...

I kind of love the flavor of Monologue Tax . Oh my god, some people with their %$#%$#% eternal turns... From the flavor side it is very disappointing that it does not trigger for spells after the second. The way it's written you will likely only get 1-2 treasures out of it per turn cycle, at which ...

Didn't answer the poll because "other" wasn't an option. I would like to see "outside the game" allow wishes/learn to pull from exile. So, if you really want that wish-for-a-color-hoser, you'll need to eat a spot in the 99, pack effects to exile it, then wish it up. Otherwise, i...

I think Rip Apart still has a place in Boros though, even at sorcery speed. Hitting four permanent types at cmc 2 makes it relevant at all points of the game, and Boros does not have as much flexible removal as some other color combinations (although it has a lot of efficient targeted effects). I th...

Thanks for the explanation! I do have a sword of feast and famine so for now I'll add that in as a test slot and see how it performs, and how often I'm searching for it with Stoneforge Mystic. I'll also check if I wish it was a Shadowspear instead when I draw/tutor for it to compare the two.

I really like your deck and the depth of your write-up, thanks for posting it! Have you tried Back to Basics ? It's one of the strongest hate cards and your list can support it quite well I think. If you do add it, I would cut Prahv, Spires of Order , Arcane Lighthouse , and Temple of Enlightenment ...

In mono red I'd play it in any list I think, even without any graveyard synergies. In other color combinations it has more competition, but at the same time there are a lot more graveyard interactions that it can support. So in decks with those interactions it's probably one of the best cards in you...

Thanks for your post! I've had swords in there before and I can imagine adding one back again; I also feel like three equipment is on the short side for Stoneforge Mystic . What I was struggling with was that the five mana investment was significant and that they compete with Tymna on the curve. In ...

Time for an update with the latest sets - lots of changes! Changes: + Agadeem's Awakening - added as a flexible extra land / recursion element. + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth - added as an extra land to support the mana base. + Jeweled Lotus - this plays well into the deck's artifact theme and allows fo...

I haven't felt that way either, most of the chosen cards look really good in the old border. I'm definitely looking forward to replacing a lot of cards in my decks/collections with these.
The selection is also positive, with the majority being highly playable in EDH.

Sorry, had mixed up Repay in Kind and the life swapping effects indeed. That said I would still consider Tainted Remedy over Rain of Gore , as not preventing lifegain from lifelink is a pretty big drawback, given it's one of the most common sources of lifegain. If you check the gatherer page for Rai...

Rakdos suicide is a very fun archetype, so I'm sure you're deck is also a lot of fun to play. Some considerations: Entomb seems like a great fit here with reanimation spells and great targets. In line with Entomb I also think Kroxa would be a good add, as a resilient threat. You're playing Rain of G...

Witherbloom one ain't at all crap. I mean I've cast Regrowth to pick up a land before, pretty sure this card is better than that =P I don't think it should've been instant either, there'd be circumstances where it could kill two permanents at instant speed and you're only spending two mana... First...

Lurrus of the Dream-Den and Scrap Trawler are two of my favorites for artifacts decks, they enable so many strong play sequences when combined with sacrifice outlets/payoffs. Yawgmoth, Thran Physician can also really tie a deck together as it has so many different synergies. Although not that power...

I think Prismari Command is the best of the five. Kolaghan's Command has always impressed through the usefulness of Shatter/Shock/Disentomb, and I think this will be similar with Careful Study as the third mode. Lorehold Command could have costed 4, but it at least has impactful modes and will alway...

My preference by far has been the Thrones of Eldraine storybook style, I just wish more playable cards could have received it.

Proxies are a good way for people to play with key RL cards and I have also seen this become more common as the RL has increased in price. Banning the reserved list due to price bans a lot of cards unnecessarily and sets a bad precedent (as there are also quite some expensive non-RL cards). One of t...
