MTG Salvation

Hi all

Forgotten Ancient is a card that has found it's way into every commander deck I've ever made with green.
And I've chucked it into plenty of decks over the years for 60-card multiplayer, given it scales so well in larger games.

I've got many favoured targets, like Fathom Mage, Sage of Hours, Spincrusher, Crystalline Crawler & Spike Feeder for example.

I'm curious;
What are your favourite targets for it?
Do you generally like it purely for it's "combo" enabling, or for it's pump?

Cheers

Personally I've been loving Hardened Scales and Winding Constrictor alongside Walking Ballista, Hangarback Walker, Mold Adder, Scavenging Ooze, Managorger Hydra, Forgotten Ancient, etc. HULK SMASH!

Walking Ballista, Gyre Sage, Devoted Druid, Marwyn, the Nurturer, Mindless Automaton.

All in the same deck?
I like the synergy between the elves here.... I can't help but think of something like Hydra Broodmaster, but I'm sure you're doing something more degenerate than that.

I run a deck quite similar to this. Hardened Scales & Winding Constrictor together are great.
I used to run Corpsejack Menace, but I've found the little snake to be good enough at 2cmc.

I was merely providing suggestions. No reason it shouldn't work, though.

I like the DD + Marwyn idea, especially with cards like Timberwatch Elf and Immaculate Magistrate :).

Oh.... I like that idea.
