Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
While I love Loam, I don't really miss it in the games I've played after cutting it. So it might be a fine cut. I also think you could cut some of your beaters, Multani seems like the weaker one. I switched him for Kamahl, and he's way better imo. You also have the goat, so I think you'll do fine wi...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
So, just a tiny game report, again to speak well of Nyxbloom. Played a 1v1, I started well by ramping, but I just drew into more lands and more ramp, so I went out of gas pretty quickly. My opponents board was beginning to get loaded with some pretty big guys, but I stalled a bit with Spike Weaver a...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
It's cool that we have such diversity among our mono green control lists! :) I get your point about Geae's Touch - thats pretty cool, but yeah, can see it being pretty mana intensive. Just goldfished a game with Nyxbloom Ancient . Turn 8, I flashed in the ancient using Emergence Zone . Had Nykthos, ...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
Lots of great discussing! Why do you guys value the "put land into play" of Gaea's Touch so much? Isn't it just a pseudo extra land drop anyways? You still need a basic forest (I only run 23) in your hand. What am I missing? On Castle Garenbrig, would properly never play it. The comparison...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
Yeah, too me Elderscale Wurm doesn't do enough, since it's' very fragile to loss of life when you are down to 7. I don't attack much, either because I don't have the relevent critters or I have Chasm down. To me Ilysian dude does way more then Gaea's Touch . It's not really the struggle with nonbasi...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
I actually replaced Emperion with Elderscale. I think he just does a better job then the wurm, and I don't really think I need a second option. I havn't typed up my build here on nexus, but I always have an up to date build on my deckbox: https://deckbox.org/sets/1053352

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
Played a few games with the new changes. Overall I like the it. Only think I had Ilysian down once, but he made like 5-6 lands into forest that all tapped for 2, which got dumped down a Squallmonger . Definitely not bad. The extra land per turn is gravy. Had a couple of games that both saw Vernal Bl...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
You beat me to it. I was wanting to post my thoughts about the new set, since I'm actually making a quite devestating change. Dryad of the Ilysian Grove was the factor. Well, we don't need the fixing, but Vernal Bloom is a thing I'm already playing, even though I have a high non-basic count. I do al...

Re: Theros: Beyond Death Pauper Spoiler Discussion
So, I might add Hero of the Games to my cube, though there might not be enough spells to support it. But I like him. A resonable body for the cost and a cool effect. Black got some interesting stuff too. I kinda like Underworld Charger , but I might just be too biased about Escape. The best would pr...

Re: Heliod, Sun-Crowned - Life and Taxes
Unexpectedly Absent belongs to every mono white control deck. Such a versetile card!
Argivian Find is also good at recuring your combo pieces.

Theros: Beyond Death Pauper Spoiler Discussion
So far I'm seeing Eidolon of Philosophy that might be good. 1/2 for isn't all that bad, but 7 mana to draw 3 might be too much.
Underworld Rage-Hound also looks interesting. Escape looks decent, giving some value. It might be good in a / sacrifice shell.

This or that thread
Hi, so in making my pauper cube, I cam across a question I didn't have an answer for and hoped someone might do. I run a flicker theme and have Man-o'-war and Aether Adept in, but would Frost Lynx and friends be better? It taps down the creature, so I won't be able to block the next turn either. The...

Re: Kykar, Wind's Fury - Jeskai Tokens
Have you thought about Coastal Piracy and Bident of Thassa? Seems good with lots of tokens.
[mention]OCPunisher[/mention], the lifegain you missed, would Jeskai Charm fit the bill? Works both as a source for life and an anthem, plus it's fetchable via Sunforger.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Summer Bloom
Just had a silly (and rather short) game with my newly brewed Golos, Tireless Pilgrim lands matter deck. My hand was 4 lands, Sol Ring, Ad Nauseum and Summer Bloom . I draw a land (the deck have 50, so it wasn't unlikely. Play land, Sol Ring. Next turn was another land. Tap Sol Ring and land, play S...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
I guess Springbloom does have som fine interaction with Titania. In a similar vein there's also Harrow.
I really love to ramp turn 1 with Green Sun's Zenith and Dryad Arbor. Given, Arbor is fragile and do have summoning sickness, but GSZ is never a dead card.

Nothing that excites me much, but I do like the Omens. They are kinda cute for commons.
Am I the only one that think the lands are really 'off'?

Re: [Titania, PoA] Dead of Winter
Oh, and if you dare go lower on basics, cycle-lands are totally great with Life from the Loam.
Also, about basics, Vernal Bloom.

Re: [Titania, PoA] Dead of Winter
From what I've heard, Concordant Crossroads works wonders with Titania. It's a pretty great way to make use of the beasts you create with Natural Balance or even if Zorb at sorcery speed. A great new card for you to consider, might be Return of the Wildspeaker . Both modes being relevant for you. Ev...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
Yup, Skyshroud Claim is one of the best ramp spells there is. Talking magic-wonder-land here, but it happens that you sit on 6 lands on turn 3 with Claim, thats just gross.

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
I'm with [mention]Rumpy5897[/mention] on the land-ramp issue, and I think we did dicuss it back @ salvation once. The low cmc ramp gets you to where you can start casting Nissa, so you don't miss your next landdrop. I don't play Steve either, but most of the other 2cmc ramp spells. Also, I'd don't t...

Re: Tatyova, Benthic Druid: We bounce a lot.
Skyshroud Ranger > Llanowar Scout . I think your deck would fuction better if you switched to lower cmc ramp cards, like Nature's Lore and Rampant Growth . Though I understand your sentiment about a low landbase, I still think 33 might be too low. I play Tatyova as a P(auper)DH, so only commons, an...

Good to see you roger! Hope you've been keeping well :) Once and Future is decent. I don't run Regrowth , but spell based recursion is Seasons Past and Nostalgic Dreams . I think it competes with Dreams, but Seasons is just significantly better. It may well be worth a try though, Dreams is one of t...

Re: Nissa's Spanish Inquisition!
No love for Once and Future ? I actually think this card is pretty bonkers. Instant speed Regrowth for two targets. I already run a lot of recursion, so I think Regrowth is getting cutted. I not as hyped for the castle. I mean, it takes 5 mana to make 6 mana that even have a restriction. If I played...
