I like Fiend Artisan. What would you cut for it?Outcryqq wrote: ↑3 years agoFiend Artisan might be worth an include too. Intruder Alarm might help you combo considering you're already using Prime Speaker Vannifar and if you include Fiend Artisan.
There is a lot of fetching and blue players in my meta, so I think Carpet should stay (only time it doesn't fit is in lower power games). Drown I am currently testing, and this is the only deck it fits in. I've fallen out of favor with Swan Song (though I still very much use it), as it doesn't hit artifacts or creatures. Still a very good spell, but I'm not running many counters in general. Mortify will eventually become Anguished, I just haven't gotten a copy yet. Don't have any WB decks currently so hasn't been big on the list.Outcryqq wrote: ↑3 years agoFor Fiend Artisan I'd probably cut either Carpet of Flowers (good card but inconsistent) or Drown in the Loch (not always a hit in commander depending on your opponent). I'd probably choose Swan Song over drown anyway. I'd probably also replace Mortify for Anguished Unmaking.
Every deck I have is an in paper deck, I do proxy some stuff but I always have at least a copy before proxying. I'm glad you think its decent, I have worked hard to improve my deck building, and this is certainly a branch out from my usual builds.benjameenbear wrote: ↑3 years agoAnother decent list that is certainly high-powered.
If you're operating with the OP as your in-paper list, then there isn't much I'd recommend.
However, Dryad of the Ilysian Grove stands out as an odd inclusion. Your land count is low to maximize its text although the color-fixing is sweet. If you fix your landbase, I think you could safely cut it.
Your CMC cutoff is 6. Have you considered any 7 drops to lengthen out Pod chains? Or is that too far for what you want to do with the deck?
