Serra Myriad...well thats fun, hasty one is okay.

What the crap is the point of Vigilance on Myriad other than to rub it in Serra Angel's face?

Multiple attack phase cards that don't let the creatures untap?

So like Seize the Day... I guess, and Godo, Bandit Warlord sort of.

Sorry, that's the best I can do.

NM The tokens get exiled at end of combat - I can't come up with a reason.

The blue and Black one kinda had a point to have Myriad but these 2 meh

Well these are certainly boring compared to the other Myriad creatures. Also I /hate/ how much reminder text Myriad has. Good lord.

Strictly better Serra Angel.

That's all I can think of and that's beyond niche.

Serra Angel on EDh...k

Being able to block with it?

Um... so the original can stay around and block, too? Am I missing something?

It's actually nice symmetry from a Mel perspective because the creature attacks all opponents and can block in each opponent's turn.

Sure these aren't really exciting, but they have their uses. The giant is crazy with Warstorm Surge et. al.

Would be hilarious if Myriad had been worded to put them onto the battlefield untapped bc of vigilance and they were exiled at end of turn instead of combat. Exponential Angel Alpha Strike!
...Poor Serra Angel.

Heh. Severral Angel.

I guess the Giant is nice for being able to swing at everyone out of nowhere, but the B and U ones actually did things that made the multiple copies doing combat damage relevant. These...don't. Hopefully the G one is more in line with the first two than the latest two.

So a better Serra Angel and a better Thundering Giant...

who else wants to use multiple myriad dudes with Sundial of the Infinite?

Ohh man, and the copies also have myriad...

Multiple myriad dudes id's the only reason serra myriad has vigilance at all. Somehow, someone will design this deck... I might di it myself since i already had a deck that used ruhan and was myriad before this was even aforethought. Myriad elesh norn with mirror gallery on the board. Everyone hates you fast

Watch Sundial of the Infinite be reprinted, but in a deck that has no Myriad creatures.

Unfortunately, the tokens leaving at end of COMBAT ruins that.

Of course red and white don't even get good combat creatures to go with their combat theme. Myriad is one of the best ways to turn aggressive combat strategies into viable strategies in multiplayer, by making it scale properly with extra players. Then they go and give the color combo they've forced into these aggressive strategies bad myriad cards. Disgraceful design.

Is the boros deck just there to get an extra 30$ out of 5 pack preorders?

Each deck has 2 myriad creatures.

Wait... question. With Doubling Season/Parallel Lives. When I attack with a myriad creature, I get token copies. *Those* copies aren't tapped and attacking, and they don't get sacrificed. Right?

why?

1. just play everything you want in the pre combat main phase...
2. attack..
3. respond to the exile trigger activating Sundial.
4. Profit.

unless I'm missing something, it works just fine.

I'm not positive, but I think they would still get sacrificed because the myriad trigger is still what's putting the tokens on the battlefield, not Doubling Season itself.

Can't you just activate the Sundial with the exile trigger on the stack after damage has been dealt? You won't get a second main, but does that matter?

Edit: Beaten.

But Rhys the redeemed isn't in black or blue...

I attack with one angel, making two more. Populate the tokens before damage.
I attack with three Angels, making 6 more. Populate before damage.
I attack with 11 angels making 22, populate.
I attack with 43 angels...
