Caravan Vigil
Was thinking about replacing Borderland ranger in my Naya Deck.
Im gonna be splashing B or U
I think it works quicker and lets you keep greedier hands......
any thoughts?
Ive played with ranger.
I've won fnms with ranger.
I know what he does. But like i said you can keep greedier hands.
I dunno. Im just trying different things.
Im all about greed!
Well my friend, as the saying goes "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Caravan Vigil is a poorer man's Farseek. For 1 mana more and no Morbid, you get to sure-ramp. Borderland Ranger is a beast on any turns imo and he guarantees you a land drop (not ramp) on those turns. Don't you think that's why he's winning you games?

Not sure if this card is gonna get banned sooner or maybe later...
Please don't make crap up. This is such an obvious word vomit it's ridiculous. Something about the internet and people thinking they need to say something to fit in..
Yea I agree he works and stuff, but im always up for trying new things.
It seems like you could keep a lot more beefy hands with caravan
I dunno its just a thought
It's better than farseek with a 1 lander, about equal with a two lander(or a forest with pilgrim), and a slightly better late game topdeck.
But it is usually worse than evolving wilds.
The only reason I see to play it is if you are using a deck that can take advantage of the fact that it is a spell and not a land, like if you had a deck with 4 auger of bolas, 4 snappy and 4 resto angel.
A 40 dollar mythic rare would constitute a must have 4 of that goes in many decks.
Stats About Mythics
-Mythics are on average 40% rarer than pre-mythic rares
(old blocks about 200 rares, Mythic blocks 35+ mythics)
-They are printing more new cards a year not less
(about 665 now vs. 630 in most pre-mythic block)
-To drop the value of a rare by $1 a mythic must go up $2
-In a 3 year time span deck prices doubled. I am petitioning for the removal of mythic rarity. Sig this to join the cause.
I'd play dawntreader elk WITH caravan vigil. I tried a BG morbid based deck to ramp into bigger things that were big for mana cost b/c of morbid +1/+1 counters. Didn't work but was fun.

Its a cute card and if your looking for FUN and just want to play around with cards you normally don't get to then use it. If you want to win more and play competitivly then stick with ranger. He gives you a body which is SO relevant right now. And with the number of lands you SHOULD be playing in Naya you won't come across 1 land hands often enough for it be profit.

I have toyed with that same idea. It is a janky form of ramp, however it activates morbid and can lead into some big creatures and spells, but they are always going to be easy targets for removal.
I feel that the Dawntreader Elk and Caravan Vigil synergy could find a home in simic, simply because they aim to ramp.

The red mage lives by the variance and dies by the variance. May the variance be with you, always.
I like what the card does, but more often than not it's worse than farseek or Borderland Ranger. It's too iffy. If this were a different format, maybe. However, that just isn't the case.
