Re: Urza - painting and grinding his foes to death

Hey comrade, I've been trying to find a big bomb kind of spell to play in the deck and I'm between Recurring Insight and Consecrated SPhinx . What's your opinion, Theoric ? I'd go with recurring insight. Partly because in metas I've played, people clone or steal the sphinx so much that it's often m...

Re: Kenrith's Battle Royale

I'd love to be playing Selvala when someone pulled out a deck like this. :) If you wanted to take this to the extreme you could take out your basic lands and do hermit druid/cephalid inkshrouder type shenanigans to dump your library, cast dread return on necrotic ooze , make infinite mana with it us...

Re: Outside of the box Sisay, Weatherlight Captain [brainstorming]

Is your intention to slowly grind out mana one land at a time? I went through extensive playtesting of various mana-generating combos during the creation process of my Sisay build. The cephalid/hermit druid was the most efficient, but other ones you might consider are: grand architect + pili-pala ar...

Re: Outside of the box Sisay, Weatherlight Captain [brainstorming]

I made a sisay deck that's packed with flavor (it dumps out 6 members of her weatherlight crew within the first few turns) and then uses Selvala as a mana generator to either cheat out another legendary and/or use ertai to counter someone's spell. It's super fun to play and smashing people with crew...

Re: Lena - Robust ETB Loops

I was gonna suggest an old favorite of mine, Lifeline , but I see you have it in there already. Always loved that card, except for the arguments about how it worked - 'why does it say 'your' graveyard?' 'what happens if lifeline is destroyed before the end step?' etc. Why no wrath of god?

I was having an issue with cards in my hand that needed to be in the graveyard so I swapped out frantic search for faithless looting .

Re: King Arthur (Kenrith), his queen, and the Knights of the Round Table

This is definitely an interesting way to build a Kenrith Knights deck and am going to use it as inspiration for my own build. It will be more Knight's tribal which can backdoor into the Angel of Glory's Rise plan, with less tutors and no Hulk. So quite a bit more casual but able to make that huge s...

Re: Urza, Combo Painter

What do you think about Shimmer Dragon ? Even though it's 6 mana, Urza ability to cast it is pretty reasonable and card draw is exactly what any deck needs. I haven't heard of that card before. Pretty interesting, although for 6 mana I think I'd rather use recurring insight since it's less of a bur...

Re: Newbie rules mistakes you did when you were new to mtg?

I started playing around 1997. One of the things we'd do was attempt to cast a spell but pay no mana, so it fails and goes into the graveyard. We'd usually do that with creatures and one of my favorite plays was putting spirit of the night in the graveyard (which was a devastating creature at the ti...

So the major wincon is the conceding of the opponents after got infinite? That's not a wincon, that's just what usually happens.

Re: King Arthur (Kenrith) and his knights dealing lethal damage on turn 3

I updated this list. The deck has proven to be lightning fast and very resilient. It's a blast to play.
I took out Haakon, stromgald scourge because he's not human so Angel of Glory's Rise doesn't bring him out of the graveyard. But I might put him back in one day.

Re: King Arthur (Kenrith) unleashing all his knights on turn 2-4

Thanks for the reply! Are your Knights able to kill everybody the turn they come into play? Because Hermit Druid mills your entire library, so you need to win that turn to avoid losing due to drawing with no library. The last part of the combo is cracking the lion's eye diamond to cast echo of eons ...
