MTG Salvation

Endless Whispers + Phage, the Untouchable/Bronze Bombshell/Bone Shredder

Cool to see this deck updated!

Here are some cards I actually used that didn't get mentioned:

• Kor Sanctifiers
  
• Recruiter of the Guard
  
• Stonecloaker
  
• Dusk // Dawn
  
• Legion's Landing
  
• Spear of Heliod
  
• Westvale Abbey
  
• Windbrisk Height

Kor Sanctifiers is not Knight of Autumn but it does solve problems.

Spellskite is also pretty nice.

It's not "competitive tryhard the best" but I like the slow value-based Living Death decks that don't rely on self-mill. I'll just durdle with Baleful Strix, Jace, Vryn's Prodigy, Kalitas, Traitor of Geth, Faerie Artisans, and Recurring Nightmare, and then at some point cast Living Death. If there happens to be a Consecrated Sphinx or Sheoldred, the Whispering One in my graveyard, great.

If you want the best Living Death deck, you should probably build the Vintage version of Modern's Living End decks. Combo style.

Quote from Umaro »

when you have 1 and only one, it's not a when you drop i turn 2. That isn't realistic and you know it lol.

I've heard a very similar argument from people playing with cards that are heavily frowned upon. (In my meta, Armageddon would be an example.) "I'm only running one, so it's OK." Well... sure, it's OK as long as you don't draw it.

Just like turn 2 Hermit Druid, it either happens or it doesn't. The average scenario does not actually exist. It's like saying the average person has one breast and one testicle.

But does that mean it gets an F? I wouldn't run Cs, but that doesn't mean they're Fs.

Great review!

A bit harsh on Sphinx of Foresight. I'm sure we all had games that we wouldn't have lost if we had a 4/4 flyer for 4 that scried on upkeep.

Steely Resolve helps, as does Farseek. I'd rather spend my third turn casting Cultivate than Dragon Egg.

Pestilent Spirit + Electrickery/Pyrokinesis
Judith, the Scourge Diva
Teysa Karlov (BFFs with Judith)
Verity Circle
Alternate art Ruric Thar, the Unbowed
Biogenic Ooze for the mono-green ooze deck.
Rakdos, the Showstopper, either in a Krark's Thumb deck or in a demon/devil deck.

Obviously, Vannifar and Electrodominance are crazy good, but they're too goldfishy for my tastes. And Hydroid Krasis is good but currently overhyped because of Standard.

Mmm... Electrodominance for RR -> Wheel of Fate -> second Electrodominance for lethal. At instant speed.

I don't like plain Fog or Angelsong. I like Settle the Wreckage, Comeuppance, Angel of the Dire Hour, and Arachnogenesis. Those do a much better job teaching people not to attack you. Plain Fog is just "well, I guess we'll just have to do it again next turn!"

Gahiji, Honored One is also perfect for those colors and that theme.
