Group Think: O-Kagachi

[Sinis]

Can I still recommend Domineering Will for combat shenanigans?

[Stapler]

We're lacking in card draw outside of the Monarch cards, so I'll add Expansion as a multicolour card draw option that gives us an outlet for all the treasure we can make that also can be a cheap interactive card in a pinch.

[BeneTleilax]

dread

[KMA_Again]

Keep Watch is relatively cheap cmc draw, especially with forced attacks.

Unfortunately the time for nominating creatures ended a few days ago. We'llbe accepting Spell nominations for another day or so (until we have ~15), then move on to Land nominations. You are welcome to nominate again without waiting a day.

[Feyd_Ruin]

Bring to Light.
Kind of a pet card of mine, but it has a lot of potential targets in here, and it's a lot more exciting than a random normal tutor.

[Outcryqq]

We're a bit low on card draw, for a deck that should consistently have colors I like Painful Truths.

[BeneTleilax]

oh ok borrow 1000 arrows because its a strictly better keep watch.

[Mookie]

"Group Think" is a term/theme from the novel 1984, so I had appended another term from the same novel "Double Plus Good"*

Ha, I'm familiar with 1984, and noticed doubleplusgood. But groupthink is too embedded into my lexicon to make any direct connections with it.

Anyway, this seems like a Conflux deck. By which I of course mean 'it's a 5 color deck, and Conflux amuses me'.

[Henlock]

Bring to Light.
Kind of a pet card of mine, but it has a lot of potential targets in here, and it's a lot more exciting than a random normal tutor.

I was just about nominating Bring to Light.too

So my nomination will go for Savage Beating. Extra combats are very good for our friend O-Kagachi and 4 exile triggers in one turn can turn the tides I was eyeing Waves of Aggression too, as the safer, easier to cast variant but the splendor of the four triggers is just too nice to pass XD

Approximate Total Cost:

Current (un-cut) ratios and weights for consideration:

Color	Card Count	Weight Count	Weight Multiplier
Colorless	13	23	1.77
White	22	25	1.14
Blue	17	21	1.24
Black	12	14	1.17
Red	25	36	1.44
Green	22	24	1.10

*Where Weight Multiplier is the ratio of total costs in a color to the number of cards in the deck with that color in their CI. I use this to multiply against the color's required land ratio to get the total minimum number of mana sources the deck should contain to support that color weight.

[Outcryqq]

I'd nominate Exotic Orchard

[Sinis]

I nominate Command Tower.

[KMA_Again]

Forbidden Orchard
All colors for a minor downside.
Edit: I didn't realize this card got up to 17 dollars. Everything keeps going up while I've been away from most magic.

[Mookie]

Cascading Cataracts
Solves every fixing problem, so we can fill all the other slots with Wastes! :D

[Maluko]

We're lacking on black cards and big spells. Since I hate control decks, and our objective is to make creatures attack us, I nominate Thought Distortion 😈

[Treamayne]

Day 11

@@darrenhabib had a great idea. Doing the land 1-at-a-time could be monotonous. However, I really don't want to be the one to pick any cards for the deck beyond the "starter" we had at the beginning.

So, what I suggest is that if you nominate a dual/tri land, you will be nominating the half-cycle to which it belongs. (e.g. Nominating Indatha Triome nominates all five triome lands; nominating Godless Shrine nominates the enemy cycle pain lands).

[Feyd_Ruin]

Kor Haven

With Manascape Refractor (and Mirage Mirror to a little extent), having some nice utility abilities could prove useful.

[Sinis]

I nominate Krosan Verge. It's ramp, it helps fix, it gets better if we include shocklands or Murmuring Bosk. It's got a drawback, but... it's worth it. Right?

[Henlock]

City of Brass, 5 colors for litle drawback.

[Treamayne]

Day 12, 13

If you nominate a dual/tri land, you will be nominating the half-cycle to which it belongs. (e.g. Nominating Indatha Triome nominates all five triome lands; nominating Godless Shrine nominates the enemy cycle pain lands).

[Maluko]

I nominate the Ikoria Triomes.

How many cards are missing from the deck now?

[Treamayne]

How many cards are missing from the deck now?

That would put us at 37 land, and the goal was to have at least 45 (to have fat for trimming).

[Outcryqq]

I generally like to have at least one sac outlet, so I'll nominate High Market.

[KMA_Again]

Nominating Murmuring Bosk to work with Krosan Verge mentioned earlier.
