Looking for a little assistance, need to cut 5 cards from my neheb list. It's operating well.no matter which five I've cut but I just can't seem to pin down the proper combination of cuts. Any input is welcome.
I see your dilemma on finding cuts. Here are my initial thoughts:
I find Neheb generates enough Mana. I'd ditch some of the mana rocks. Coldsteel Heart, Fellwar Stone, Fire Diamond, Heart of Ramos.
Insult/Injury - The damage prevention is nice but it's not Instant speed. Injury doesn't pay for itself with Neheb
Stranglehold or Blood Moon - Both are very efficient control pieces but the don't do anything to further your plans. I would cut Stranglehold over Blood Moon
It That Betrays or Void Winnower are good mana sinks but, again, not doing much for your cause.
Vandalblast is good but unlike Viashino Heretic, doesn't do much else
Hey Scattered, thanks for you suggestions! I'll take a look at your list too. I've play tested this deck a BUNCH, the reason for the semi-stax package (blood moon,stranglehold, void winnower, price of glory and the land destruction) is because i wanted to avoid the "glass cannon" effect that comes with being a mono color deck. I found that, without these cards, I would win in fantastic faction, blowing up the board turn 5 even with haste-y heartless hidetsugu and neheb and an x spell. BUT i would lose so frequently too with nothing to abate my opponents, I would sit idly as my board state was blown to bits by the various removal afforded by multicolor decks. This is the same reason for the heavy ramp, I've GOT to start fast. I've found i have to get my stax pieces out quick so i can amass a board state. It's become more turn 7-10 wins, BUT it is much more consistent this way. Now though, I am over on cards, and can't make cuts! i will look at your list, but im afraid ill like it and then end up just adding more cards, or cutting some of mine to add some of yours, and end up with the same problem.
Does wildfire eternal allow you to cast a sorcery during combat? seems odd
Yes it does. Gatherer has a specific ruling for this situation, seen here.
Anyway, I really like this commander. For ease of reading on this site, you might consider posting the decklist in your post instead of just a link to another site.
