Consulate Dreadnought is a nice card (yes, the "magical" CMC1 plays a major role) that I rarely have problems to equip between token producers like Sai, Master Thopterist, Nadir Kraken, Mirrodin Besieged or Urza's Saga. Also, it is not above me to crew a vehicle with another vehicle. I have created quite the monstrosities in the past. Commander's Plate is basically a superior Access Tunnel. Buffing, protection and most of all, evasion. Need to equip the vehicle every single time though.Tevesh wrote: ↑2 years agoI have been looking into getting more beef into the deck, how yieldly is Consulate Dreadnought? I see that it's the magic 1 CMC between all of your search engines, but how easy is it Crew and get in? Commander's Plate is also pretty ingenious, as it gives a lot of protection, turns Omenkeel into an actual clock and exile tons of cards. I'm pretty desperate, looking for ways to actually close out the game out in the mean time. Front runner is Aradara Express and that just hurts to consider.
What do you use Muddle the Mixture to tutor for?
I'm surprised you're running Wonder, it had too many hoops for me to jump through to get Flying, so I dropped that.
Muddle the Mixture's use was to bring Cyclonic Rift, when I used to run it, but now it really depends on the situation. Depending on the state of the game, I can go for Liquimetal Torque (if I want tricks or if there is a Padeem, Consul of Innovation in play), Pull from Tomorrow if I have lots of mana and need gas or Smuggler's Copter/Key to the City if I need a discard outlet for Wonder.
Wonder itself I found too important a card to cut. Evasion for the vehicles is key, Especially in the mid-game, when most opponents will have some kind of blockers available for the non-flying Vehicles. By that time (t3-6) I am usually able to find some way to put Wonder into my gy if I have it. That said, I am also thinking of the possible addition of either a Geier Reach Sanitarium or a Cephalid Coliseum (again, tutorable cards with Expedition Map) to have some more discard options.
