I'm weighing either Strands of Night or Phyrexian Reclamation as a replacement for Oversold Cemetery. I've used Reclamation before to good effect, but haven't ever tried Strands. I'm thinking sacrificing a swamp will often be a net positive in here, but I'm not sure. Neither one I think. Strands of...

Any thoughts?

Hi Rumpy, How much Red temporary token generation do you think is essential? I currently run Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, Flamerush Rider, Feldon of the Third Path, and Splinter Twin. I do not run Flameshadow Conjuring or Twinflame. I have 1 slot open in the 99, and up to two slots open because I'm c...

Quarantine online games have been a higher power level overall than I was used to playing (although the groups I played with before seem like they were higher power than the norm appears to be for commenters on this site), so things like this are probably totally reasonable.

Well that's just ridiculous! What do you think about Elesh Norn in here? Just opened one from a Mystery Booster, and it seems like it ticks a lot of boxes here: pumps the team, helps push damage through, does stupid things with Helm of the Host, and even does work if I can make a normal copy, stacki...

Swordtooth is a lowish price, but I don't know that it does enough for me to spend even that much on the card, and I'm not sure what I would cut for it. Also, I've definitely had some games where I had an extra land drop card in play, but had no extra lands to drop. Bumping land count up from 38 wou...

Just had a fantastic game running my Varina deck where I used Apprentice Necromancer to recur Rot Hulk each turn, reanimating the Apprentice +2 more zombies...at instant speed at the end of the last opponents' turn before mine so they are can attack. In particular, this was especially high value bec...

My thinking of Brass's Bounty was that the deck is leaning toward BIG turns, and Bounty would just make for a MONSTROUS turn. I've had some games where I've been light on mana, and some where I really needed to dig for an answer, but also I've had others where just having that additional mana/sacrif...

Most of this I had on hand already, so the building cost wasn't too high, but if I didn't already have all those fetches and such, they wouldn't be in there. As it is, I'd like 2 more at least in Wooded Foothills and Windswept Heath, but I'm not paying for those right now. I do actually have 1 Snow-...

I've put together my own Korvold deck with some similar constraints (no aristocrats or edicts), and was wondering what thoughts you have. Mine is built a bit more around a lands matters theme. How have you found Brass's Bounty and Revel in Riches? The first I was considering putting in, but not sure...

You're too low on lands (40 is absolute minimum for "land matters" theme) and you need more outlets for playing more than one land per turn. You also need Crucible of Worlds and Life from the Loam to reuse all the fetches and sacced lands and keep drawing cards with Korvold. Urborg, Coffe...

Korvold, Fae-Cursed King - Lands-HO! [br] [br] Korvold, Fae-Cursed King [br] Having never run a "lands matter" EDH deck, Korvold jumped out at me as being a solid value engine to anchor a lands focused deck. In addition, I have both a Meren of Clan Nel Toth deck and a Teysa Karlov deck bu...

I didn't include the mana base, largely due to laziness. Definitely do not have the fetches, nor ABUR duals, to increase the consistency further, but I have a compliment of Shocks and most of the other base-land-typed dual lands to fetch off of the non-basic-exclusive land tutors. For the most part,...

I currently have a totally random assortment of deck boxes, some suitable for 100 sleeved cards, and some not quite . Similarly, I have quite the hodgepodge of sleeves, many of which are falling apart, or are too unwieldy to be using when shuffling a 100 card deck over and over. Now, I'd like to sta...

What do you think about The Ozolith?

Winds of Abandon is a good call. I'm concerned about giving my opponents a lot of land, but as far as a one-sided wipe goes, it looks solid. Reckoning is often paid for with tapped creatures (mostly the non-tokens that are about to die anyway). I've definitely paid 0 mana for it more than once. I'm ...

Thinking I'll cut Rampaging Baloths, and two other cards for: Thorn Mammoth Bonecrusher Giant Generous Gift Not sure exactly what I want else I want to cut for those. Also, definitely want to get a Blade of Selves for this. Additionally, I do want to try and work Packleader back in, and am looking a...

So, I got to play with Quartzwood...and he was INSANE! He works so well with the Rhino plan! That game, had an opponent playing Avacyn, and I used Hate Mirage to copy the angel, then populated with Ghired attack trigger to make one that would stick around. Having Avacyn ensured I didn't lose the gam...

This is what my list looks like at the moment. I dropped the Packleader for Quartzwood, but don't think that was the right swap. Top of the curve looks a little heavy to me, but not sure what swaps I would make here. Sorceries 1 Rampant Growth 1 Twinflame 1 Farseek 1 Nature's Lore 1 Search for Tomor...

I'm doing ok. How about you? Glad to see you posting on this deck again. I actually just went through and cut Dualcaster and Feldon along with a few other cards. Quartzwood is in the mail, and on the way. I'm excited for it, although I had been a little disappointed that it wasn't legendary--the dec...

Thanks for this. My comments to follow Since we're on the haste enablers topic I thought I'd mention the ones I've used in the past and just assess them a bit, in case anyone wants to explore a few different options. Flamekin Village Pros: - Land, doesn't take up a spell slot and can probably replac...

I'm not looking for advice in regards to any 1cc creature changes as I've literally just looked through every page of the gatherer about them. I'm more curious to know if there are any really strange effects in RW that generate a mana per creature like Tangleroot or draw a card per creature like Pr...

Any thoughts on non-combat/damage wincons that would fit here? Last night's game became unwinable for this deck, because Muldrotha had Constant Mists, and instant-speed access to Glacial Chasm. Have also seen other decks running effects that make attacking difficult/impossible.

Had a couple of games recently where Hate Mirage did some serious work. In this last one, it copied Muldrotha and Azusa , and I populated Muldrotha to have access to my yard for a few turns. Later, I got it back with an Eternal Witness to copy a Marit Lage token and Teysa Karlov while at 7 life to p...

Been playing a lot of Magic via Zoom or Google Hangouts. You could check those out for quarantine play. I'm in NYC and we've been locked down for over a month. Just put Olivia in my list to try out. I'd removed the haste enablers aside from two lands, but have a couple more cards with Graft to put a...
