30+ Creature Type Changeling Tribal
Lately I'm focusing less on attack or combat damage triggers (removing, among others, Mari, the Killing Quill, Captain N'ghathrod and Tovolar, Dire Overlord // Tovolar, the Midnight Scourge among others) and more on ETB effects. Voja might be a very good addition in a deck that wants to abuse attack triggers - and I might even try to build a second, more aggressive list for that - but it's not going to make my current build.

I'm in the same boat but the difference between Voja, Jaws of the Conclave and the cards you named is that the wolf doesn't rely on your Changelings to attack and connect to get the triggers it only require Voja to attack which is a world of difference. That leaves your Changelings free to do their tap/attacking silliness.offspring wrote: ↑4 months agoLately I'm focusing less on attack or combat damage triggers (removing, among others, Mari, the Killing Quill, Captain N'ghathrod and Tovolar, Dire Overlord // Tovolar, the Midnight Scourge among others) and more on ETB effects.

There's so much competition for our 5 drops though. :/
I wonder if it's finally time to axe Skyshroud Poacher or maybe I'll just cut Evelyn, the Covetous because she's harder to play logically.
I replaced Moritte of the Frost with An Unearthly Child and really like the change. Moritte was almost always a dead draw because it couldnt target my legends or would essentially be a 5cc changeling. an unearthly child gives great tempo by giving us 3 changelings over time.

I decided on The Eleventh Hour over An Unearthly Child. The first chapter is slightly better. The second chapter is probably a tiny bit worse. The third chapter is expect to usually be better. Glad to hear it's working out well for you though! It looks like a solid inclusion.
I have a hard time cutting Moritte of the Frost as I once copied seraph sanctuary which made Hibernation Sliver go infinite with a free Changeling.

I just played a 5 turn game (admittedly there was a group hug deck powering everyone through the roof). On turn 5, I tried to lethal the table by copying Nyxbloom Ancient with Shapesharer which triggered a massive stack war where I was on the receiving end of Path to Exile, Beast Within, and Boltbender preventing it me from copying the ancient. Then, my next spell ate Mystic Confluence (bouncing two of my changelings that I turned into Psychosis Crawlers) and Magda, Brazen Outlaw ate a Mana Leak. That's the most removal I've ever had thrown in my direction in one turn. If any of my abilities/spells had resolved, I'd have won the game.

There's a new "Outlaw" subtype like party. I assume one of them is going to be extremely pushed. Nothing offensive yet but Discreet Retreat seems like everything I want. Ramp, fixing, and card draw! All on a fairly safe enchantment. There's also a decent handful of non-Changelings this can work on like Seahunter.
It seems like there are some ridiculous includes hinted at in MH3 for this deck.
Omo, Queen of Vesuva
2 - Legendary Shapeshifter Noble - 1/5
Whenever Omo, Queen of Vesuva enters the battlefield or attacks, put an everything counter on each of up to one target land and up to one target creature.
Each land with an everything counter on it is every land type in addition to its other types.
Each nonland creature with an everything counter on it is every creature type.
It's in the Commander set so that decklist could be interesting. Doesn't feel like a slam-dunk but definitely notable. At the very least it helps with fixing. Could combo well with Absorb Identity?

Omo looks interesting, the problem is if she leaves the battlefield her everything counters stop doing anything (if I'm reading her right). So probably a pass on her for me. That being said, she's probably going to have a pile of busted cards in her decklist for us.Tribbles wrote: ↑3 weeks agoIt seems like there are some ridiculous includes hinted at in MH3 for this deck.

Path of Annihilation seems really good. Turning changelings into Birds of Paradise is one of the best abilities early game. Slapping that ability on an enchantment is great and it comes with two bodies? Sign me up. Also, it randomly gains a little life off The Ur-Dragon/Morophon, the Boundless which is nice.

Elven Chorus gives even your non-changelings the mana ability, and provides some card advantage, but without the bodies.

Elven Chorus doesn't allow me to say an additional creature type whenever I cast a Changeling / when a changeling is on the battlefield so it's unplayable here.PrimevalCommander wrote: ↑3 weeks agoElven Chorus gives even your non-changelings the mana ability, and provides some card advantage, but without the bodies.

I haven't played my Changeling deck in quite a while. It's a bit too strong for my meta. The most recent additions I have are Discreet Retreat and Path of Annihilation. I expect them both to be quite good.
I also just read Pyrogoyf again. It also triggers off Changelings, so that's probably getting a slot.
