MTG Salvation

Current list, for clarities sake.
make sure that you dont have the titles in the same row as the cards.... it gets werid when it wont pull up the card.

-1 Konda's Banner I agree it sort of sucks here.

EDIT: Because Macius DEMANDS it!!!



happy now?

Quote from SniperMayer

Corrected the list. Please copy the last deck everytime you post.

Quote from Macius

As I said earlier, if they dont want to correct, there suggestions will not be counted.

@All
If there is a post advising a change (-1 or +1 is a change), there must be a deck list showing it.

after this post, no list...and your post is ignored.

Edit: No, because im going all controlling on this thread. But it gets confusing when multiple people are using different list ideas.
Also, I'll reneg on the banner. So its at -2.

Can someone defend the Bushi Tenderfoot. Im not seeing were its that good.

I +1 the Konda's Banner since I've had great mileage out of it in my Kemba, Kha Regent deck. Didn't like Bushi though...

I added an alternate wincon with Altar of Dementia which can combo with Sun Titan and Angelic Renewal.

Isamaru, Hound of Konda for flavor reasons, and because I'm a bad person. Hey, he works with Konda's Banner!

Adding in Cataclysm because it's awesome in voltron deck.

Edit: I'm downranking a few cards.
Dead-Iron Sledge - Unneeded, Konda has a very good chance of killing anything blocking it anyway.
Bushi Tenderfoot - Agree, doesn't do enough.
Oathkeeper, Takeno's - If I could down rank this 3 times in a row, I would. It's too easy to destroy and exile the general.
Explorer's Scope - Are we really hurting for ramp this badly?

Posting a few hours early as I won't be online tonight. I've been here since this thread started and don't want to miss out on it's development

I read the rules but am still unclear about the fate of the Banner.
Here's it's history:
hadoukkened gives it -1
Macius gives it +1
ISBPathfinder gives it -1
Antaeus gives it +1

The current list shows the Banner at -1.

Adding All is Dust, cuz I has a mwahaha.

[/SPOILER]

I gave it -1... so its either at -1 or at -2.... since its a topic of debate, ill leave it at -1.

Bushi is gone....
and still of note is that this is voltron-esque in original thought.....
While im all up for flavor, Isamaru seems kinda meh. If we get to a point where we need to cut cards, Isamaru will be next on my list.....

Also, is true conviction needed? I never saw how good it is, unless your going token route edh


So, current list
[SPOILER]

Im going to -1 all is dust.

antisynergistic with konda. you want to be destroying everything, so that konda will survive.

+1 catastrophe.

Can be a wrath, or if you have a good board position you can bomb lands, and swing.

+1 Armageddon

Not adding any cards, just downvoting some stuff.

Why is Altar of Dementia here? I don't get that at all, aside from wanting a sac outlet, but there has got to be a better option. -1
-1 True Conviction
-1 All is Dust
-1 Dead-Iron Sledge
-1 Elesh Norn (great card, but seems underwhelming here, unless tokens are a big part of your meta. Even still, seems a little hefty on the cost side to kill a few tokens)
-1 Isamaru, because he is useless here.

We still need more ramp, and someone has to add Soulscour.

From my experience playing Konda, I'd like to see a few more pieces of equipment that offer pumps and/or evasion. People don't always block Konda, and he is a seven turn clock without any power boosts.

Quote from Sto0kerz

+1 Armageddon

you can just add card, the + are there to counteract the -'s.

Dead-Iron Sledge is cheap and can also help us remove more powerful creatures that block konda. then again, a blocked konda is an 8/8.

We need an equipment that gives trample and a deathtouch/lure type card. Im a couple hours away from being able to suggest a card, but I have one in mind.

Added Soulscour. Why have I never seen this card before? This is exactly what a Konda deck needs.

Downvoted
Isamaru. Extremely not good as a singleton in EDH.
All is Dust. This is gone now, right? Third vote against it.

yes, also

Ok, where did the -1 to Helm of Kaldra come from? Im removing that because it just appeared. Also, I'll -1 Isamaru.

also, greaves or swiftstride boots?

+1 on oathkeeper, because it exiles konda.... ok, I'll recast him (need moar ramp then)
-1 Altar, I'd rather do other things with Sun Titan..... and true conviction is also kinda meh.
and for my card idea:Sword of Feast and Famine. I really like it in here, but thinking about it, id almost want light and shadow
