I recently played against a Karn, Silver Golem deck with tons of combos and I wanted to remake that deck but still be able to call it my own. As a result Sydri was born and it is now Karn with counters. I feel like I need some more artifacts in this deck or potentially that I have too many mana rocks but there are a lot of great combos in here and I think it should go over well. I wanted to get some last minute input before I went all out and actually built the thing. Also concerned about basic lands and blood moon wrecking me. Without further ado, here is the list!
Let me know if I missed any combos or if there is something I should cut/add. I think this deck will be able to be extremely competitive for less than $500~ but if it goes over, it's ok.
Thanks for the spelling correction, would have totally slipped me
I'm looking more for cuts. I think adding Memnarch and some other cards might be super cool but I don't know what to sub for.
I still need cuts and opinions on the cards I have in the secondary list :\ I think putting in those inifnites will help, especially the triskelion one.
If you're going to do an infinite combo you should first add some Tutors like, Demonic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, Diabolic Tutor, Diabolic Revelation, and Liliana Vess -2 ability to set up the combo. On what to cut, truthfully it should be up to you, but personally I would cut anything that usually ends up being a dead card in my hand. And you seem to have a lot of sweeper, maybe you should cut a few of those, or some of your high costing creatures to lower your curve.
Pact of Negation and Apostle's Blessing, and some more counters if you really want to pull off the instinct game winner combo. Stuff like Reanimate to get them out of the yard, and Pull from Eternity, is the only thing I can think of if one of your creatures for the combo is exile. And maybe give yourself hexproof with stuff like Witchbane Orb , just in case someone decides to exile your yard to stop the combo.
Need cuts!!!! Ahhhhh this is so hard, I think there are so many combos and things I want to include but having to protect them is going to be difficult.
Cut, Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, Angel of Despair, Enigma Sphinx, Baleful Strix, Decree of Pain, Akroma's Vengeance, Sword of Fire and Ice, Mind Stone, Dreamstone Hedron, Spine of Ish Sah, Sphinx of the Steel Wind, + the ones you picked that are not on this list. Don't try to cram too much into one deck, focus on the combo, and a alternative way to win if it gets shut down.
I think you should go test it a lot, to get a better feel of how the deck works for you. And after that you may find more stuff you decide to cut or maybe add stuff back, then play test more, once you're satisfied go play for real.
