I cut non creatures to add more creatures as creatures are the heart of the deck. I am little worried about running into things i wont be able to deal with easily with creatures. e.g ghostly prison, rule of law, glacial chasm.
I am always concerned I am cutting my interaction.. but but mores birds! very excited about Nimble Obstructionist.
New tribal commander cards!
Looking at the sets the cards I am looking at are Path of Ancestry and especially Kindred Discovery.. that card is exactly the card I want seems like it will turbo charge this deck. I am trying to decide what to cut, Door of destinies might be the best cut I have much more effienct pump spells or those that that work with tokens or are birds themselves.
Too many changes to keep track off with all the tribal-specific things added recently. I also have a lot of legendary spell so historic is actually good for me. Plus low-cost birds with keywords are always great for me
I am currently trying to get my hands on a Vannifar but I am not sure what to cut for her I only want so many non-bird creatures in the deck but she is a wizard which is useful.
Hello, fellow bird trainers that might be reading this nercoed-thread, birds are awesome and it seems WotC has finally noticed and printed a whole bunch of great bird cards and I have been struggling to keep up. This was resulted in me cutting my back up reviellark combo and I still don't have all the new birds I want.
My local FNM after completely fialing to get people to show up for months has swapped to Casual commander FNM and we are getting good numbers now (note there is no virus here) so I have had more chances to... spread my wings.
Experience so far is this deck is terrofying, kills one player and then gets boardwiped and struggles a bit as public enemy number one.
- Crib swap, its a bird but not a creature
- Beck//call, high mana cost for not a lot of gain
- Prophet of kruphix, banned wow i haven't update this in awhile
- Rootbound defenses, I'd rather have a counterspell.
- Beast within, somewhat concernd about this
- Evolving wilds, slow and awkward, have real fetches now.
- teramorphic expanse
+ Birds of paradise, reobtained them after reprint
+ Cloudfin raptor, more one drops the better
+ Aven riftwatcher, this is a bird apperently
+ Lieutenant Kirtar, got to have the complete set
+ Aetherstorm Roc, New from Kaladesh a bird that grows and taps blockers
+ Thawing glaciers, I have heard deveri breaks this.
+ plains, a lot of double white costs compared to everything else.
