darrenhabib posted a message on Partner Commanders - NONO R Zombie Token SwarmI think the best cards in the deck to make it function on most cylinders are Gaea's Cradle and to a lesser extent Growing Rites of Itlimoc. Probably by proxy Hour of Promise then becomes your most powerful mid game draw. With this in mind, Reap and Sow will be powerful in your deck.Posted in: Multiplayer Commander Decklists
For similar reasons its nice to have at least one all purpose "tutor" card for the deck, and I'm sure its just because they are $$ expensive for the lower casting cost ones that you don't run any, but Beseech the Queen can be got for $3.5 and is great in your deck, because often you might just be searching for that Gaea's Cradle with it, so not worried about number of lands in play.
Diligent Farmhand is similar enough to Sakura-Tribe Elder. Can be used same way with Ravos, Soultender.
Save those pennies for a Cabal Coffers, you will not regret it -

Really depends on your budget But you have a lot of draw cards, and not a lot of ways to convert that into really good mana, so you will always have spells in hand and just not be able to cast out in a timely manner.Quote from idtapthatformana »
Quote from darrenhabib »Its like the concept But the mana cost are through the roof. Realistically you'll never spend a turn doing an "Emblam" cost, because if that is all you are doing then you're probably losing. You're going to have to balance out some of the synergy for straight up mana cards, so that at least you can get to some of your pay off cards, in a manner that isn't too late, or not impactful enough.
Thank you, and yes you are very right. Sometimes it feels like my mana costs are inefficient, I am always looking to lower my curve so I may just have to make hard cuts. Any suggestions?
Cabal Coffers, as Hour of Promise can fetch up this and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth. I know you probably had dreams of getting two Zombies off getting deserts, but you really are more likely to get Gaea's Cradle from Hour of Promise than a desert.
Any mana doubler is good, but the only one that is $$ cheap is Zendikar Resurgent.
IN:
Sakura-Tribe Elder, Wood Elves, Yavimaya Dryad (can be reused with Ravos, Soultender)
Cabal Coffers
Zendikar Resurgent
OUT
Rotlung Reanimator (only 3 clerics in the deck, so very underpowered, although nice on theme)
Undead Warchief (without really being able to use the less costing ability for Zombies, the creature buffer is like a "more winning")
Altar of Dementia (unless you have an actually infinite combo, not good enough)
Huatli, Radiant Champion (seems bad)
Novijen, Heart of Progress (you'll never have the mana for this and Cabal Coffers will be replacing it)
Anything which allows you to play out additional lands is really good, because you have some busted ways of drawing lots of cards potentially: Exploration, Burgeoning, Azusa, Lost but Seeking, Oracle of Mul-Daya, Sakura Tribe-Scout.
Cards I'd put in without a budget:
- Exploration
- Burgeoning
- Azusa, Lost but Seeking
- Oracle of Mul-Daya
- Mana Vault
- Mana Crypt
- Seedborn Muse (amazing with Thrasios, Triton Hero)
- Earthcraft
- Doubling Season
- Exploration

DementedKirby posted a message on Partner Commanders - NONO R Zombie Token SwarmI'm really liking this idea! It's like a white Sidisi, Brood Tyrant! Zombies are an amazing archetype and you're going the token route, which is my preferred zombie making route as well. Adding W is great because then you have access to all the white zombie matters cards and Anointed Procession.Posted in: Multiplayer Commander Decklists -

You can only have one copy of each non-basic land in your deck. It would go nicely in a land-based EDH theme of that sort.
Pretty linear and restrictive in what it does. It becomes a huge beast that's easily chumped at its height.
'buster
Land based decks mostly uses basic land cards because they are easier to ramp, making this card worse. Its jsut a run of the mill beater.It has plenty of stronegr competition if you want one. Sorry but no, its not usefull in edh. No all cards are good in edh and this one isn't. Unless someone finds a secret tech for it. -

BlazingRagnarok posted a message on Izzet ChemisterPosted in: The Rumor MillQuote from idtapthatformana »Unsure about timing restrictions. Can I cast the sorceries I've exiled at instant speed?
Any spell or ability that instructs a player to cast spells, usually without paying their mana costs, (as opposed to allowing a player to cast a spell from a certain zone) always ignores timing restrictions. Keep in mind that this creature has you cast spells while resolving its ability, a time when players can not cast instants, much less sorceries. -

Yes. Targeted Removal in BW looks like:
Path, Swords, This, anguished unmaking, utter end.
That seems good.
