Aluren is there to protect Omnath. It lets you cast him at instant speed without paying for him no matter how many times he's died so you don't lose any of the mana in your pool.
I've been working on this deck for a while and want some suggestions for adds/removals from the deck. I'm trying to avoid any cards that cost $20+ and are preferably under $10. My playgroup is fairly casual, we often play games without the general damage rule. I'm not looking for competitive suggestions, but things that will help me in a 4-6 player environment and won't be insanely boring for the other players.
I'm just going to type the order of actions below. I want to know if this is doable.
1. Attack with Tireless Tribe
2. Opponent lets it through unblocked
3. Discard five cards to raise Tribe to a 1/21.
4. Opponent passes priority.
5. Cast Twisted Image on Tribe.
6. Opponent target it with any creature killing card.
7. I cast Condemn targeting Tribe.
Will I gain 21 life from the Tribe when I Condemn it or will Twisted Image change it's p/t first?
Also, if a person tries to kill the Tribe in response to me discarding to raise it's toughness, can I resolve my Condemn before it dies and gain 21 life?

Its hard to get the skull clear because the only pictures i can find of the card's art are 600 x 500 pixels and I need about 700 to go the picture clear. The shoulder spikes and energy swirls on the guy are little blurry because I had to create them myself because the actual card art doesn't show the entire character. Feel free to use it or not, I'm really just looking for an excuse to practice my image editing and thought, seeing as you have only 12 posts and most people require at least 100 for them to bother making a sig or avatar, this would be a good one to do.
Hey there! I have recently come to the realization that instead of sitting around and doing nothing during this massive quantity of free time that I have, I could make people avatars and signatures. So, request me some stuff!
My only stipulation is that you don't give me any outrageous requests with sixteen different card arts on it.
All requests will probably be completed within a two or three days from the moment I respond to your post. If it takes any longer, I'm probably busy; But I will get to it eventually. SO DON'T RUSH ME
