you can bounce golem with aether adept or similar to end up with the 2 tokens that wont be radianced. and always replay it for 3 more golems.or you can have alot of fun with souls fire.
If they try to Shatter it, that triggers the golem's ability. If you counter the Shatter in response, can the triggered ability copy it still, since the spell's no longer on the stack? I know the triggered ability doesn't target, but can it copy a spell that's no longer a spell?
That's kinda the open question, as Precursor Golem's ability states to copy the spell when it's cast, not when it resolves.
the deck core is the golem with Æther Tradewinds, fleeting distraction or distortin strike being played on it to draw cards, pump and make unblockable, bounce their stuff...
these spells also pump kiln fiend rediculous, then fling it.
counterspells help keep you from taking 9 off searing blaze or ruining your plans.
Landfall helps geopede and get your mixture of R&U.
what else?
maybe mana accell with chalice, or myrs?
Clone can add another golem for cheaper.
I know there are more than 60 cards but......so many to choose from.
I think a mono U control style would be better with mana accel to get metal craft, chalice and the 2 myrs, then golem.

And I can't tell from your post whether or not you want to Fling all of your Golems, but I will reiterate that it does not work.
Maybe a G/x Ramp deck with Precusor Golem and Irresistible Prey? Irresistible Prey works even w/o the Golem, as you can force them to block a mana elf while a fatty gets through. Keep the ideas coming.
y not?
"Whenever a player casts an instant or sorcery spell that targets only a single Golem, that player copies that spell for each other Golem that spell could target. Each of those spells targets a different one of those Golems."
I cast aether tradewinds targeting my golem, then I copy that spell for each other golem and target them as well.
"Return target permanent (golem) you control and target permanent you don't control (their lands) to their owners' hands."

no I meant tradewinds, because then you can bounce oppo lands.
But perhaps this doesnt work because it says "that targets only a single Golem." I was reading this as only one golem, not 2,3,etc.
I really look forward to trying to break Precursor Golem, he just screams build a deck around me. I guess we now know why Electropotence sucks. Pandemonium is still fun with it though, lol.
Me: I play Precursor Golem.
Opponent: Bolt all of them.

Yeah. Searing Blaze and Aether Tradewinds Copy on the Precursor.
Distortion Strike, Vines of the Vastwood, and Twitch are the best spells i've heard for the golem yet.

~Intelligence is Bliss; Ignorance is Denial.
Skill is an ability that relates more so to the type of deck that's built and how said player pilots it. It also relates to the ability to assess the board and use the cards available to you in the most optimal way relative to each situation.
When a deck is filled with above par cards and every play is solid, there comes a diminishing need to "think" for the lack of wanting to use a better word.
I think it's funny that 9 power over 3 bodies is balanced by "bolt kills ALL of them". Distortion strike? stop it. It's going to be like venser again, isn't it...

Æther Tradewinds doesn't get copied.
The copies aren't cast, thus not pumping Kiln Fiend.
Searing Blaze doesn't deal you 9.
And I can't tell from your post whether or not you want to Fling all of your Golems, but I will reiterate that it does not work.

Read Precursor Golem again...
I WANT YOUR DEATH BARONS! Message me if you want to get rid of them!
Oops. Nope. He just read it wrong.
Into the roil could work for card draw though...
Because tradewinds targets 2 things? In that case searing blaze doesnt work as well?
no I meant tradewinds, because then you can bounce oppo lands.
But perhaps this doesnt work because it says "that targets only a single Golem." I was reading this as only one golem, not 2,3,etc.

It says, "[...] That targets only a single Golem," not, "That only targets a golem..."
So correct me if I'm mistaken, but I believe the spell can have other targets as long as they are not one of the other two golems.
AH! thats a good point.....hmm
So for comparison what are some other cards that have similiar verbage? I have only 'been around' since Eventide.
