MTG Salvation

Given that the GW section of most small/mid-sized cubes is seemingly airtight, this card isn't really a consideration for those folks. That said, if someone has a larger cube with a fleshed out token theme in White/Green, this card suddenly becomes quite a bit more interesting. I've always enjoyed these effects, from Decree of Justice to White Suns Zenith to Secure the Wastes, as they often push decks with token-synergies over the top. Secure is almost certainly the best of those three due to it's efficiency, and this card has the possibility of both being even cheaper, and creating better tokens. Convoke is certainly not without it's drawbacks, given that you need creatures on the board AND they have to take a turn off of attacking (barring Vigilance) to effectively use.

So with all that said, is anybody here considering giving this card a test?

I feel like this is a trap card. I'd much rather play something like launch the fleet. That a least wouldn't rot in my hand in an aggro deck. I just don't see myself taking the turn off atttacking and having a good chunk of extra mana. On top of that it's a guild card.

So March of the Multitudes made the SCG Con 360 list, and Justin Parnell hyped it hard on Solely Singleton. His explanation almost sold me!

This card was totally glossed over on this forum. Did anyone try it?

Haven't tried it but still curious, actually. I think the lifelink adds an interesting aspect to it. Overall I think my biggest reservation isn't that it isn't good, but I just like other GW cards I have right now a little more. But, since I am experimenting with a W/x lifegain theme, might be worth a shot anyway...

This never looked good to me. I've been surprised to see that it's managed to escape being a bulk mythic. Secure the Wastes seems so much better, but I'm willing to be proven wrong. It's possible I've completely underestimated convoke here. This does have something I like in that it both supports and is supported by a token theme.

My cube is such that I could easily find room for this if I had a copy, but it never seemed very interesting to me. Decree of Justice does seem like the most comparable card, but the card draw from Decree always looked better than the convoke and lifelink you get from March. I'd be interested to see people's experiences.

Selesnya is aggro in my cube, so a definite pass from me. The creatures are all already turned sideways.

IMO, this card is only "over the top" in Standard because of the ability to chain an end-of-opponent's-turn March into another one on your turn. Without multiple copies in Cube to enable that line, it just doesn't interest me much.

I'm highly skeptical this is better than Secure the Wastes. Why not just run Trostani Discordant?

Listened to the solely singleton podcast, very good analysis from justin! I've independently come to similar conclusions about archetype balance.

I'm skeptical about this card in a normal cube though.. Their list is very light on sweepers AND runs additional token support that inflates the power of the card relative to a normal cube. Their breakdown referenced a 2 draft sample and standard/limited results, which is not the best argument, but multiple people on the podcast claim cube results, which is promising

I'll probably test it at some point
