After the recent spike in Heritage Druid and finding out personally that Ghostly Prison is actually surprisingly expensive, what other cards should we be digging out to put in our trade binders?
I feel like keeping the gates would be the most flavorful. I was thinking of making all the legends in the deck the maze runners. Cutting the bounce lands because they are bad with all the tapped lands. I don't own any of the nephilims but I considered them. I was also thinking of playing the Eidolons that return to your hand from the graveyard when you play a multicolor spell but that seemed a little weak.
This is only the first draft. More suggestions please!
The General is Horde of Notions (because Ravnica lacked a 5 color legend). My primary concern with is that I wanted to stay on theme but my lands are extremely slow and awkward in the few games I have played with the deck. By the time I finally feel stable the game tends to come to an end point. Also some of the creatures in the deck don't really do anything because there is no support to them.
I am missing some of the preferable legends. I think I should be playing Momir Vig or Prime Speaker Zagana over Experiment Kraj. I want to play Tolsmir Wolfblood over Trostani. I have a few off theme cards I realize. I could cut some of the spells and play guildmages too but it feels like a control deck right now so more spells seem better. The primordials have so far been very weak in the deck doing pretty much nothing. I want to keep the same general theme but I want to be able to win so speeding the deck up might help with that. Thoughts, suggestions, comments?
So I got this idea for Merieke Ri Berit as an esper control general (I'm sick ofSharuum and Oloro heading these decks and Dakkon Blackblade hasn't worked for me in years). I have a ton of EDH decks but this is going outside of my normal comfort zone because I want to use some obscure things in this deck so I am looking for ideas.
I also plan on using some blink interactions to trigger my general and typical control cards like wrath effects and Sphinx's Relevation. Any other ideas?
I very rarely play mono red in any format or attacking decks, but Urabrask is my favorite of the legendary praetors and one of my favorite red legendary creatures. Which leads to my problem: This deck just can't keep up or it just dies first. I want to cut down on some of my converted mana costs and try to gain some staying power with the deck. Please help without just linking me to another Urabrask deck.
I need help finding a general. With Innistrad being released in about a week, I'll have access to a bunch of highly flavorful cards that I can use to make a deck based around two of my favorite TV shows. Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel. Problem is Innistrad doesn't really have a legendary human who is obviously female. I'm hoping for ones in the later blocks but for now I'll have to settled with another general.
All I know is that the card should obviously be female. Is decently good in combat/killing creatures, and should probably be white, probably black as well, and possibly one other color (although 5 would be cool if there were ANY good options there).
I will start on this deck list once I can find a general. And yes I do know of Rashka the Slayer, but I am looking for something that isn't just mono white.
Topic pretty much sums up my problem. Help please.
I was told somewhere that I get 10 tickets just for signing up. Was I told wrong? I went to the wizards site where I thought I read that and it is not there. I'm assuming I'm wrong now but if not I would like to know how I get it.
So I won my second game with my version of the deck. I ended up not drawing any win conditions other than sprout swarm and ulamog's crusher. Crusher got super token blocked so I ended up winning the game by sprout swarming for six tokens a turn. I blew up child alara 3 or so times that game.
I still like Ninja of the Deep Hours. I do not like Okiba Gang Shinobi so that is getting the cut from my list. I'm playing Resounding Silence and Resounding Wave for good results and I cut Crookclaw Transmutor for Disturbed Burial. I think I'm going to end up finding room for more cards with transmute so I can tutor up my recursion a little better.
This is only the first draft. More suggestions please!

Are there any other white/black cards with a person obviously punching/kicking like in Gallantry?
Obviously, I will be playing Wooden Stake. Lets get this together!
All I know is that the card should obviously be female. Is decently good in combat/killing creatures, and should probably be white, probably black as well, and possibly one other color (although 5 would be cool if there were ANY good options there).
I will start on this deck list once I can find a general. And yes I do know of Rashka the Slayer, but I am looking for something that isn't just mono white.
Cards that use Superman's abilities to get through:
Repel the Darkness
Blinding Light
I also feel like you should change the general to something U/W just so you can play Pemmin's Aura which is an anagram for I Am Superman.
Arcanis, the Omnipotent
Archivist
Soratamo First to Dream (probably mispelled that)
or maybe alternate art a Spy Network to have a picture of oracle on it.
As for Nightwing I would use
Ninja of the Deep Hours/Higure of the Still Wind/Okiba Gang Shinobi.
All of them give me a Nightwing feel. If you choose Higure I suggest adding more ninjas and try to find a reference with them.
