Child of Alara come to mind as a good multiplay commander. Being able to wipe the board pretty consistently is nice. Now if they are asking you to change because you keep winning with rhys and they're sick of it, then I suggest doin Atogatog simple 5/5 for 5 that gets you into whichever 5 color deck you want to build. Personally I built a 5 color infect with him. There is always sliver queen but that ropes you into slivers hard. Good luck with your deckbuilding!!
Hello I have a new request. I would like in the signature:
the two heads from Shared Fate, split with the woman on the left and man on the right looking into the center
In the center the hands from shadowmoor Manamorphose each holding a Pentad Prism, or if you think it looks better have both holding one bigger prism.
Beneath the hands the text "Share The Love" however you think looks best.
I would enjoy if the whole thing had a bit of a blue theme but not too overpowering, maybe offset it with black ,red, or green whatever you like.
ohh triton tactics is sick!!! can't believe i missed that. its like shock and it turns my dudes into walls of frost. Thanks for that. I don't know if the combo is worth playing the elite arcanist. I had considered the arcanist before but decided against it because it can be serious card disadvantage. Triton tactics though thats a seriously nice card.
So I brewed this up the other day and have been really enjoying playing it. The mana is slow, but I have won games against esper control. I don't think it's anything teir amazing but I would enjoy any help with the concept as you would like to give. The basic idea is to land as many pingers as possible and then land a prophet of kruphix, simple.
So I was running burn before rotation and it was good. Well except for all the Thragtusk and Sphinx's Revelation. Thraggy is gone, thank jebus. We now have Whip of Erbros but that's not as splashy or as good IMO. The Burn package has changed a bit because of rotation but it still looks pretty good. I lost some 4+ damage spells, Vexing Devil, and Brimstone Volley. However I gained access to scry, and that lets me play Chandra Pyromaster main, as well as upping consistency by a lot.
I've tested the deck a good amount online and it seems to do well. I don't think I've been playing top tier decks necessarily, but i think it has promise. The fact that all of my maindeck spells are instants helps lots at keeping my opponent guessing. I know there is no Mizzium Mortars. 2 reasons: 1. it's not an instant. 2. It can't hit my opponent directly which is what I really want to be doing with all my burn. Here is the deck.
There are two sideboard strategies. One is to side out almost all of the creatures for more burn. I usually do this vs anyone playing black. I'll keep in just Ash Zealot, and on occasion the goblin. If i'm lucky they keep their removal in or even side more in to deal with Reckoners. another is to side out burn, or any irrelevant cards for Chained to the Rocks or relevant removal. Trouble comes in as extra hate vs sphinxs revelation as well as vs Jace. I often give them all 3 cards when they reveal them then laugh as i hit them for 5-7 to the dome.
So here is house cats dec. so far. It's pretty bad if i do say so myself. The mana base is horrid and only stable because it's exensive. I plan on proxying the whole mana base. Hey its cats i need the money to feed them not to buy mana. Entrails Feaster seems good but I don't know if I'll be killing enough creatures for it to work I'll have to play a bit. There are 6 spots left so I figured something else with awesome cat art, or if I can't find anything just something really awesome to give this deck a fighting chance. KITTY!!!!!!!
Thanks for the response. I should have mentioned that I have already searched Gatherer for everything containing the word cat. What I really need help with is finding cards with cat pictures that do no reference cats. Diminish is a good example. Thanks again for trying to help.
So i've been thinking about a cat deck. Totaly casual but all cards must be cats, or have cats in the picture. I'm pretty sure the colors are green, white, black. Some of the cards I am Liking a lot are.
I was inspired by a new card from M14 with a picture of an enlarged cat diving into a merflok village. I will be playing that card as well. Any help is welcome, mostly for good arts or cards on theme. Thanks.
Here is a fun little thing i made to abuse the interaction between blaze commando and Mana clash. Let me know what you think. Equal Treatment speeds up the kill by doubling my damage.
I loose pretty hard to anything playing more than 8x lifegain cards. Right now I think that's just Bant. I can survive a Thragtusk or a small revelations without skullcrack, and if I have 2 skullcrack its usually my game. Of course there is the auto loose to witchbane. Need to be good at knowing who has it.
Your decklist if fine, but honestly guttersnipe is just good. Every time I play him I think would the Vishino be better and I find that usually it isn't. Thing is Viashino is probably just doing 4 to the dome but can sometimes just do nothing (except turn of morbid). Guttersnipe will make up the +2/+2 with 1 spell if he swings. Sometimes neither is swinging and the snipe gets in for 6 or 8 and that's really where he shines. I really like him vs 5/5 wurm tokens as he makes my 3 dmg 5 and puts the race in my favor. Also he can block just as well as an attacking vishino to turn on morbid, though you will not get the extra 2.
I like more artifact hate since I don't want to me mulling to find it. However, for me I think I'd rather a spell or nothing as it works better with guttersnipe. For your deck the fiend should work fine. I think this deck is a bit before it's time, honestly. It performs well however but the meta hates it naturally. It will loose some powerfull burn after rotation, but lots of life gain will go with it. I'm building it now and hoping for lightning bolt in M14.
Edit: You really want pillar of flame main. You need that turn 1 play, and it's a devastating play with a 3 drop turn 4. Granted I'm playing Guttersnipe so i may be bias. This deck is so low on 1 drops, it makes the cut just because of that. Plus I can't think of when you'd side it in. You don't want to point burn at dudes unless you have too, or you have a guttersnipe and are getting value. I guess, i'm still saying play guttersnipe. it's just so good.
