I used to play a Damia, Sage of stone deck and found the ability of drawing to 7 wasnt that great. Those were also being in so functional colors, GREEN BLUE BLACK and having all kinds of stuff. Yes, she doesnt "discard/counter cmc" but that drawing felt... weak and meh
We need testing on this though and a proper manabase to support it consistently
The "2x wastes" cost didnt make it more powerful, but weaker. Annihilator used to be our "win condition" and menace is no where the same
depends on how many creatures you have and/or token generators
i have gotten it to war with even sac'ing kozilek, sac pentavus 1/1's, sac thopter assembly 1/1's, and sometimes getting away from a random tuck effect. its a little slow to setup, but for me, im heavy creatures and less combo and i find it very good
first is weak, considering the other 7-8 mana planeswalkers
nicolbolas destroys a noncreature permanent, karn makes someone exile a card in hand, garruk just destroys a planeswalker or protects itself with a 3/3 deathtouch
yes. it does. go google around for Kingdoms, it eliminates FFA aspects but gives everyone an objective
its been a success at my LGS and i've always played it when its possible.
whether you are the king, or the bandit, this deck itself is already a blast so just enjoy it. you wouldnt get 4 people trying to kill u instead too
It seems like a funny and interesting card to run, especially in a slighter casual arena..
In the more cut throat play groups/LGS, i think that's a slight waste of a slot
My LGS usually plays kingdoms (king,bandit,bandit,assasin,knight) format, and I can see how this interestingly would make the annihilator triggers go around
on Ashnod's Altar
i have enough so it warranted a slot since day1.
having an additional sac outlet helps in many ways
Sac Kozilek from stealing
Sac Kozilek to recast and save the 2mana
Sac tokens for mana
Sac artifact creatures that need to go to the grave
Infinite Combo's
actually, i was never unhappy with it in my hand (maybe except t1-t4)
Sorry juwdah but for the rest i have a suggestion;
Just because Juwdah said something bad about the card doesn't mean u shouldnt try or run it
thats just "net-decking"
run it, try it and it might suite other lists, styles and meta and thats what we all are here for. brewing up ideas and making ideas better. not following a list.

Temple of the False God
Maze of Ith
Eye of ugin
Ancient Tomb
its a little budget, no stax, creature heavy....
my list is in my signature, though probably i didnt update it but its about 95% the same...

Have you considered Copper Gnomes
the discount it brings to churn your a giant/big artifact at instant speed has been helpful, well at least in my meta
was the deck broken, in the league?
