I will never buy Black on Black art. It's a dumb concept, and from what I've seen thus far, it sucks. The price tag on it is outrageous as well for such a crappy concept.

Just gonna put this out there, You control Emblems from Planeswalkers such as Venser, the Sojourner and that emblem has a triggered ability. So get an emblem trigger it, copy the trigger. I want at least 6 of these.

I don't see Jinxed Idol being a very viable option unless all they have in play is Sigarda; since they gain control of the Idol they have the option to still sacrifice something even with Sigarda on deck, and with white and green they also have easy ways of getting things back into play (Reveillark, Karmic Guide, Eternal Witness, Sun Titan, ect...) Also the card does not directly deal with Sigarda, it merely affects the player and their life total; Sigarda still remains on deck and you still only have 5 turns or less to deal with her before you are dead.
Keep in mind that when you sacrifice something and Jinxed Idol is passed to the Sigarda player, you no longer control that card, they do. Once they control it they are free to sacrifice as they please.
I know they control it, otherwise they wouldn't even have to sacrifice anyting if sigarda is on the field. I said this card, because it helps keep sigarda under control. It may not be much, but it does get rid of a creature when she is on the field, or it does damage. either thing is fine.

Jinxed Idol yes, you have to sac your own stuff to get it to trigger, but you're playing black, it shouldn't be hard to get back, and it's recurring so long as you don't run out of dudes, and the opponent doesn't have a way to counteract the life loss if they choose not to sacrifice their creature.

I've never understood the hate for Kaalia decks. She doesn't do a lot of the big bad plays that people are afraid of other decks, she doesn't really combo-kill the whole table, she doesn't tutoureveryturnunfairly. So people hate her because I get to go to the combat step with big, awesome flying monsters? isn't this what the "spirit of commander" (god I hate that term) want the format to be about, swinging with big critters?
It's also worth noting that with Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir, Possibility Storm basically stops your opponents from casting spells at all, similar to Knowledge Pool. This is the best of the "chaos red" enchantments we've seen in quite some time, and I'm excited to play it with Melek.
I was playing a 6 player game with some friends. It was very late in the game, with only 3 of us left and not many resources. I was playing MBC Korlash, Heir to Blackblade against Radha, Heir to Keld RG Ramp and Phelddagrif Group Hug.
I was in top deck mode and my board consisted of around 12 Swamps, Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, the Dark Depths i drew my last turn, now with 7 counters on it, Mirror of Fate, and my Korlash. I have one card in exile: Yawgmoth's Will. Phelddagrif had 3 cards in hand, his general out, with about 15 lands, and Leyline of Anticipation. Radha was also in top deck mode with 10 lands, Mana Reflection, and his general out. Everyone is at 10 life or less.
It's Radha's turn and, of course, he draws Emrakul. He casts it and it sticks. He skips the rest of his turn and goes right into the extra one. Since I have no flying creatures he sends it my way. Here's where things get funny:
With the Annihilator trigger on the stack, Phelddagrif flashes in Jester's Cap and uses it on me. He finds my Vampire Hexmage, Aether Snap, and Diabolic Tutor and exiles them. He then flashes in Vedalken Orrery out of his hand, then uses his last card Donate to give it to me. I crack my Mirror, and shuffle my now 4 card library. Pheldd uses his general ability to let me draw. And I pull the Hexmage. I pop the Depths, sack 6 swamps to the Annihilator trigger and block and kill Emrakul with a Marit Lage token.
I killed Radha my next turn, and on Pheldd's turn he played and bounced it 3 times, decking me.
But the look on my other friend's face while Pheldd was setting me up was priceless
Just saying, Emrakul is banned. Other than that, LOL

Oona, Queen of the Fae is my absolute favorite generals to play, as well as Zedruu the Greathearted. But when I play those people normally go ZOMG KILL IT BEFORE IT LAYS EGGS! I enjoy playing against any deck that is extremely difficult to beat. Ghave, Guru of Spores combo, or Sharuum the Hegemon combo are probably the hardest generals I've played against.

Not quite sure I understand this fully, will this be returned to the battlefield along with your creatures after being blinked, or will it return your creatures and stay exiled? I'm pretty sure it's the first one but I'm not entirely confident.
I'm fairly certain the enchantment will stay exiled. Exiling the enchantment is part of the cost, and the creatures being exiled is what the ability does, it then return's "those cards" to the battlefield at the beginning of the next combat. I'm pretty sure "those cards" refers to the creatures it exiled

i run palichron + deadeye navigator. it is good because if you have a lot of mana you can play fierce empath or brutalizer exarch, search for deadeye, blink the creture that searches, get palinchron, play palinchron, blink deadeye, blink palinchron infinitely. it require a lot of mana but you don't spend much slots in the deck just to combo, since only palinchron has few uses besides the combos. the others are good anyway.
Palinchron just figured I'd link it since some people don't know it.

I would take out the Ashnod's Altar for phyrexian altar, and do the combo psilocybianth said with Sun Titan. If you don't want to take out the Ashnod's Altar, I would do the Sun Titan + Angelic Renewal + Ashnod's Altar + Gemstone Array. 4 cards may seem like a lot in order to combo out, but I use this combo personally all the time, this is EDH, the format where these kind of things can happen

Along with this, I'm going to be playing Possibility Storm in my Zedruu the Greathearted deck, because enchanting your opponent with Curse of Exhaustion while this card is on the table is also a lock down of your opponent
