Frantic Search is such a beast
1 - its instant
2 - its *free*
3 - its banned in legacy ( that should be a good hint )
4 - dont forget the power of (fixing mana) mid-late game if needed
how .. well you only have 1 green producing land .. tap it .. for something other then frantic reasearch .. and untap it so here goes your second mana you didnt have
and .. last but not least
5- it can actualy ramp you if you have a budget list .. like me and you are using dimir aqueductgolgari rot farm
the first thing I will point out, is that my decklist above that .. you would agree is far from being... optimize
is already winning a little more then 60% of the games I do.. and, I dont want to be *that guy*
Reanimate ($)
- I think there is no way arroud it .. I kinda do have to purchase it
- Or i can just buy Life/Deathand gimp myself a little Living Death ($)
- I think I will have to purchase that one too.. no more running ! Phyrexian Metamorph ($)
- Hes a staple I should really put him in Putrefy ($)
- cant hurt having more removal Buried Alive ($)
- another strong card i think I kinda have to put in Sheoldred, Whispering One
- probably going to buy her, she fits really well in the list + gives good target to mimeoplasm, pretty expansive but .. i think she brings alot to the table to justify her price ($) Twincast ($)
you have it right, its not that great, but i just cant remove it, everytime I draw into it, I kinda get exited of the endless possibelity ( even if its stays in my hand the whole game) I still like the card fun wise
Necromancy ($)
- I get motion sickness by looking and reading the card, so I will pass for now Phantasmal Image ($)
- Hes strong, but, a little on the week side, So I will pass for now
for the money I prefer other options listed above Sphinx of Uthuun ($)
lovely card!, nice art, lovely ETB, low $$ NICE!, but, This deck.. alrdy draws to much, if it makes any sense,
I play tested my deck, and maybe I wasnt pilloting it the best way possible, but, I did find myself whit alot of cards options most of the time
i think I should remove some of the slower card draw, and possibely add Sphinx of Uthuun later on.. at this state I'm not sure what to remove Fauna Shaman ($)
strong and a little pricy cards, and ... heres a secret, I'm not a huge fan of (toolboxes) they remove a little of the random effect, and drag the games a little
I would 100% put this card in if my deck was not consistent or not winning enought, but it is not the case, I will pass
about counterspell,
I am really tempted to run cards like exclude that .. would wreck in 1v1 in my current meta, but I decide against it .. not sure why
I do enjoy countering spells, but I think I want to avoid them a little for now
I prefer, clonning / killing / threats more
----
now what would you remove..
that would maybe the top 3.. so .. +1 because my decklist was missing 1 card, so thats 4
still probably need 2 more spot, I'm really not sure what to remove beyond this point
-barther in blood
-strategic planning
-fathom mage
- Praetor's Grasp : it seems to be more of a 1v1 powerhouse card, none of my friends so far play competive combo's
but i will keep this card in mind if I go a bit more towards the competive type or I loose hard from one of my friends combo deck
- Anvil of Bogardan : lol what a funny card, I actualy quite like it, but.. I wont run it due to my meta using the graveyard, it would be helping them too
- Withered Wretch : thank you for that idea, he is going to be in my sideboard* (lol) I will try to include him if I need his service
--
reason why clone is so good
- normaly cheaper then the bomb itself
- super fun to have, because you never know whats he will end up becoming
- is good in a the mimeoplasm deck because if the clone is in your graveyard, that meens the mimeoplasm can target your clone targeting a creature in play !
- Vesuvan Shapeshifter i like the morph, i'm not a fan of cards my friends has to read 4 times, hes fairly cheap, good idea
- Sakashima the Impostor super good ! but 8$ is a bit steep
- Phyrexian Metamorph .. i kinda think i have to use that one
- Sakashima's Student ! i hate you for suggesting him, he is soo much fun and strong, Look at his FACE ! ! i love ninjutsu !... someone give me 8$ please
- evil twin - cost 50 cent, he copy for 4, can remove a threat if needs be, and he (put himself in the graveyard whit no help)
so you can target him whit mimeoplasm, I didnt playtest him, but to me its pretty damn alright
thanks to you too, metalheadmark
- Spelltwine looks like a fun, it looks like a sorcery type of Diluvian Primordial
-- what I like about spellwine is that, it that it targets me too, and cost 1 less to cast
-- what I dont like is that it doesnt have a 5/5 flying body
-- It doesnt target all my opponents
thank you for your idea I will think about including him, if after a few games I wish I had more Diluvian Primordial
this is my Mimeoplasm!, any advice or sugestion would be more then apreciated!
the commander:
Hi ! this is my take on a commander I have been brewing for a while
Why did I choose Mimeoplasm in the first place ?
- interactive commander !
- helps make every game different !!!!!!!!!!!!
- my 3 favorite color in mtg
- Is it a ooze, is it a raptor no its BOTH !
First I will say what this deck is trying to acheive 1 - Be Really Really fun to pilot
2 - strong enought to win
3 - fair to my oponnents
4 - budget friendly
I play commander really casually, whit friends, we do like building our own decks and we play magic in a non-competitive fashion
I have playtested this deck a few times alone and, at this stage it is fully functional BUT
now I'm looking at ways to make it either a bit more budget friendly or more fun to pilot
Examples of what this deck want to avoid
Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur - I dont like playing alone nor loosing friends Damnation - too expensive for now Snapcaster Mage - wish it wasnt 20$
I'm also trying to avoid having to many tutor's, I like the random factor in MTG, and working whit what I have,
tutor's are probably the best type of cards in commander, and I will add a few if my deck ever seems .. lacking.
- not running to many tutors change the game up more for my point of vue
- helps me not always fetch the same creatures
EDH is what bringed me back to MTG
Pauper+peasant is what kept me from droping again
EDH + (pauper/peasant) = is what keeps the game interesting for me
EDH is great whit its singleton idea, the casual aspect and the great synergy of awfull spell is a blast
big spells, multiple way to victory, you have a general !!!
pauper/peasant, is pretty competitive, super cheap, deckbuilding is AMAZING, because you are never .. never .. ever... limited by money..
if your deck suck, thats your fault
thats what I love about those 2 little format,
Hi,
after watching and reading about a really popular and sucessfull deck in pauper
called Boros kitty, the deck is brewed by turbokitty3000
you can find alot of neat information at: http://puremtgo.com/articles/pauper-gauntlet-finals
so here I am trying to make my own vertion of the deck whit peasant in mind ( 5 uncommon )
I started looking at uncomons that could fit the deck spirit quite well
here is the list I came up whit Wall of Omens - is my first choice, my meta is almost 100% aggro and this card can be bouced back whit skyfisher + provide good defense, it also makes the deck consistent by a fair margin Shrapnel Blast - great finisher could replace Kuldotha Rebirth Piston Sledge - another great options, perhaps a bit slow Epochrasite - seems compleatly retarded but perhaps not in this deck
a big thanks to everyone
I finaly ended my choice on The Mimeoplasm
I made myself a deck that is still under construction and it looks highly interactive and fun to play, ( didnt put any infinite loop )
one of the reason is... while play testing .. Prophet of Kruphix i think i'm addicted
my second choice was : Wrexial, the Risen Deep
I can easaly see myself dismanteling my mimeoplasm in a few months to try this guy out
the other thing I liked about mimeoplasm, is that I will be able to change the commander to: Damia, Sage of Stone and Vorosh, the Hunter whit very few changes
giving me hours and hours of good time,
i will probably post my budget deck list soon in the forum for comment so you guys can wreck my face whit ideas!
woah great suggestion.
I really think i'm partial to blue
reason being I have grown in loving ( Rite of Replication , Rhystic Study , Cyclonic Rift, ponder ) from my rafiq of the many deck -- that got converted into a saffi deck.
rafiq was to (( all out )) great offense, awfull defense.
making him a nice target.
Its also important to note that my meta is far from highly competitive, my saffi .. deck is .. as of right now .. kinda steamrolling and its far from being optimized.
( I think the reason being is that my meta is mainly AGGRO and my saffi deck is the only real wombocombo deck )
so .. if i take back my original list
:symb::symu::symg:Vorosh, the Hunter
like the colors, but i'm scared the commander would be a bit dull
:symb::symu::symg:The Mimeoplasm
Looks FUN + replayability !! but .. i'm scared of a few things
1 - saffi get wrecked by graveyard hate, so if both my deck get wrecked by graveyard hate i'm scared my meta would start to implement them in their deck and get 2 hit 1 stone
2 - most player seems to play him combo ( and I dont want a second combo commander )
:symb::symu:Oona, Queen of the Fae
looks fun, and different... not sure about replayability
:symb::symu:Sygg, River Cutthroat
who doesnt like drawing cards !! ( i like cheap commander ) see saffi !!
+ he looks amazing haha
:symb::symu:Lazav, Dimir Mastermind
seems like a gimped mimeoplasm (in a good way ? )
i love the hexproof + replay ability, but coments on him seems that he doesnt bring alot to the table
:symu::symr::symg:Animar, Soul of Elements
seems a bit to burst oriented, I want to run board whype, not cower in fear from them
:symu::symr::symg:Maelstrom Wanderer
haha, looks like alot of fun, but i'm not sure his chaos (random) nature would make him really unstable and .. boring after a while ( random factor )
:symb::symu::symr:Nekusar, the Mindrazer
seems good enough, but I really have no clue of .. how someone could build a little around him ( group hug draw ?, mill ? )
im not a fan of jeleva
and yea I was planning to buy the deck
whit the release of the new commander set (nov 1)
I'm looking to build my second commander
my current one is :
:symg::symw: Saffi Eriksdotter deck that is combo oriented
what i'm NOT looking in my second commander
- mono colored or 5 color
- *infinite* combo oriented (interactions are more then welcome)
- not wrecked by graveyard hate
what i'm looking for my new commander deck
1 - FUN to play, and nice Replay ability
2 - multi-player oriented !!!! (2v2 and 3-5 player FFA)
3 - needs 2 of the 3 colors i'm not using ( :symu::symb::symr: )
4 - will be a budget deck, will avoid 10$+ cards....
so the deck has to function well whit cards around 5$ and less
5 - does not attract to much board HATE ( Jhoira of the Ghitu ) doesnt need to be low profile, but a homing missile turn 1 is never fun
6 - interchangeability commander would be a plus nice little bonus ( think of Rafiq of the Many and Jenara, Asura of War )
Hi, i'm really trying to make a workable maybe not competitive, but fun to play landfall deck since a few days
I have brewed ideas, from (mono green, to UG, to GW)
now i'm looking for constructive advice and feedback on a casual, but hopefully powerfull landfall shenigans
of all the cards, i think the card i like the least is augur of skulls
because he is way to slow .. i think i will try to remove them and place hymn of torach instead.
so .. maybe i should try it out whit scepter
i was considering trying out shriekmaw and scepter, and switch augur of skulls
1 - its instant
2 - its *free*
3 - its banned in legacy ( that should be a good hint )
4 - dont forget the power of (fixing mana) mid-late game if needed
how .. well you only have 1 green producing land .. tap it .. for something other then frantic reasearch .. and untap it so here goes your second mana you didnt have
and .. last but not least
5- it can actualy ramp you if you have a budget list .. like me and you are using
dimir aqueduct golgari rot farm
oh .. and the card is 25 cent !
its free, it can fix !
to me its alot beter then cumpulsive
ok, lets tear it down
the first thing I will point out, is that my decklist above that .. you would agree is far from being... optimize
is already winning a little more then 60% of the games I do.. and, I dont want to be *that guy*
Reanimate ($)
- I think there is no way arroud it .. I kinda do have to purchase it
- Or i can just buy Life/Deathand gimp myself a little
Living Death ($)
- I think I will have to purchase that one too.. no more running !
Phyrexian Metamorph ($)
- Hes a staple I should really put him in
Putrefy ($)
- cant hurt having more removal
Buried Alive ($)
- another strong card i think I kinda have to put in
Sheoldred, Whispering One
- probably going to buy her, she fits really well in the list + gives good target to mimeoplasm, pretty expansive but .. i think she brings alot to the table to justify her price ($)
Twincast ($)
you have it right, its not that great, but i just cant remove it, everytime I draw into it, I kinda get exited of the endless possibelity ( even if its stays in my hand the whole game) I still like the card fun wise
Necromancy ($)
- I get motion sickness by looking and reading the card, so I will pass for now
Phantasmal Image ($)
- Hes strong, but, a little on the week side, So I will pass for now
for the money I prefer other options listed above
Sphinx of Uthuun ($)
lovely card!, nice art, lovely ETB, low $$ NICE!, but, This deck.. alrdy draws to much, if it makes any sense,
I play tested my deck, and maybe I wasnt pilloting it the best way possible, but, I did find myself whit alot of cards options most of the time
i think I should remove some of the slower card draw, and possibely add Sphinx of Uthuun later on.. at this state I'm not sure what to remove
Fauna Shaman ($)
strong and a little pricy cards, and ... heres a secret, I'm not a huge fan of (toolboxes) they remove a little of the random effect, and drag the games a little
I would 100% put this card in if my deck was not consistent or not winning enought, but it is not the case, I will pass
about counterspell,
I am really tempted to run cards like
exclude that .. would wreck in 1v1 in my current meta, but I decide against it .. not sure why
I do enjoy countering spells, but I think I want to avoid them a little for now
I prefer, clonning / killing / threats more
----
now what would you remove..
that would maybe the top 3.. so .. +1 because my decklist was missing 1 card, so thats 4
still probably need 2 more spot, I'm really not sure what to remove beyond this point
-barther in blood
-strategic planning
-fathom mage
.... other cards that could be fun
1$ - Tempt with Immortality but the cost is 5 O.o meh not worth it
2$ - Surveyor's Scope
- Massacre Wurm
- Notion Thief
- Forbidden Alchemy
- Beacon of Unrest
-Thada Adel, Acquisitor
- Praetor's Grasp : it seems to be more of a 1v1 powerhouse card, none of my friends so far play competive combo's
but i will keep this card in mind if I go a bit more towards the competive type or I loose hard from one of my friends combo deck
- Anvil of Bogardan : lol what a funny card, I actualy quite like it, but.. I wont run it due to my meta using the graveyard, it would be helping them too
- Woodfall Primus : he is still on the verge to see play
- Withered Wretch : thank you for that idea, he is going to be in my sideboard* (lol) I will try to include him if I need his service
--
reason why clone is so good
- normaly cheaper then the bomb itself
- super fun to have, because you never know whats he will end up becoming
- is good in a the mimeoplasm deck because if the clone is in your graveyard, that meens the mimeoplasm can target your clone targeting a creature in play !
- Vesuvan Shapeshifter i like the morph, i'm not a fan of cards my friends has to read 4 times, hes fairly cheap, good idea
- Sakashima the Impostor super good ! but 8$ is a bit steep
- Phyrexian Metamorph .. i kinda think i have to use that one
- Sakashima's Student ! i hate you for suggesting him, he is soo much fun and strong, Look at his FACE ! ! i love ninjutsu !... someone give me 8$ please
- evil twin - cost 50 cent, he copy for 4, can remove a threat if needs be, and he (put himself in the graveyard whit no help)
so you can target him whit mimeoplasm, I didnt playtest him, but to me its pretty damn alright
thanks to you too, metalheadmark
- Spelltwine looks like a fun, it looks like a sorcery type of Diluvian Primordial
-- what I like about spellwine is that, it that it targets me too, and cost 1 less to cast
-- what I dont like is that it doesnt have a 5/5 flying body

EDH is great whit its singleton idea, the casual aspect and the great synergy of awfull spell is a blast
big spells, multiple way to victory, you have a general !!!
pauper/peasant, is pretty competitive, super cheap, deckbuilding is AMAZING, because you are never .. never .. ever... limited by money..
if your deck suck, thats your fault
thats what I love about those 2 little format,
the combination of those 2 format is my Mojo
after watching and reading about a really popular and sucessfull deck in pauper
called Boros kitty, the deck is brewed by turbokitty3000
you can find alot of neat information at:
http://puremtgo.com/articles/pauper-gauntlet-finals
so here I am trying to make my own vertion of the deck whit peasant in mind ( 5 uncommon )
The decklist I came whit is :
4x Ancient Den
1x Boros Garrison
1x Forgotten Cave
4x Great Furnace
4x Kabira Crossroads
4x Mountain

4x Journey to Nowhere
4x Galvanic Blast
4x Lightning Bolt
1x Shrapnel Blast
I started looking at uncomons that could fit the deck spirit quite well
here is the list I came up whit
Wall of Omens - is my first choice, my meta is almost 100% aggro and this card can be bouced back whit skyfisher + provide good defense, it also makes the deck consistent by a fair margin
Shrapnel Blast - great finisher could replace Kuldotha Rebirth
Piston Sledge - another great options, perhaps a bit slow
Epochrasite - seems compleatly retarded but perhaps not in this deck
the original boros kitty deck list (pauper)
4 Glint Hawk

my current meta is :
Sliver
simic - Lorescale Coatl
I'm open to idea's !! !
i'm really sorry - please delete or donc comment so this post cycle out quickly
I finaly ended my choice on
The Mimeoplasm
I made myself a deck that is still under construction and it looks highly interactive and fun to play, ( didnt put any infinite loop )
one of the reason is... while play testing .. Prophet of Kruphix i think i'm addicted
my second choice was :
Wrexial, the Risen Deep
I can easaly see myself dismanteling my mimeoplasm in a few months to try this guy out
the other thing I liked about mimeoplasm, is that I will be able to change the commander to:
Damia, Sage of Stone and Vorosh, the Hunter whit very few changes
giving me hours and hours of good time,
i will probably post my budget deck list soon in the forum for comment so you guys can wreck my face whit ideas!
for currious minds, here is what the list look like:
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/mimeoplasm-20-10-13-1/
ps: the Nemesis Mask represent the nemesis in the new commander set
a big thanks to everyone
I really think i'm partial to blue
reason being I have grown in loving ( Rite of Replication , Rhystic Study , Cyclonic Rift, ponder ) from my rafiq of the many deck -- that got converted into a saffi deck.
rafiq was to (( all out )) great offense, awfull defense.
making him a nice target.
Its also important to note that my meta is far from highly competitive, my saffi .. deck is .. as of right now .. kinda steamrolling and its far from being optimized.
( I think the reason being is that my meta is mainly AGGRO and my saffi deck is the only real wombocombo deck )
so .. if i take back my original list
:symb::symu::symg:Vorosh, the Hunter
like the colors, but i'm scared the commander would be a bit dull
:symb::symu::symg:The Mimeoplasm
Looks FUN + replayability !! but .. i'm scared of a few things
1 - saffi get wrecked by graveyard hate, so if both my deck get wrecked by graveyard hate i'm scared my meta would start to implement them in their deck and get 2 hit 1 stone
2 - most player seems to play him combo ( and I dont want a second combo commander )
:symb::symu:Oona, Queen of the Fae
looks fun, and different... not sure about replayability
:symb::symu:Sygg, River Cutthroat
who doesnt like drawing cards !! ( i like cheap commander ) see saffi !!
+ he looks amazing haha
:symb::symu:Lazav, Dimir Mastermind
seems like a gimped mimeoplasm (in a good way ? )
i love the hexproof + replay ability, but coments on him seems that he doesnt bring alot to the table
:symu::symr::symg:Animar, Soul of Elements
seems a bit to burst oriented, I want to run board whype, not cower in fear from them
:symu::symr::symg:Maelstrom Wanderer
haha, looks like alot of fun, but i'm not sure his chaos (random) nature would make him really unstable and .. boring after a while ( random factor )
:symb::symu::symr:Nekusar, the Mindrazer
seems good enough, but I really have no clue of .. how someone could build a little around him ( group hug draw ?, mill ? )
im not a fan of jeleva
and yea I was planning to buy the deck
I'm looking to build my second commander
my current one is :
:symg::symw: Saffi Eriksdotter deck that is combo oriented
what i'm NOT looking in my second commander
- mono colored or 5 color
- *infinite* combo oriented (interactions are more then welcome)
- not wrecked by graveyard hate
what i'm looking for my new commander deck
1 - FUN to play, and nice Replay ability
2 - multi-player oriented !!!! (2v2 and 3-5 player FFA)
3 - needs 2 of the 3 colors i'm not using ( :symu::symb::symr: )
4 - will be a budget deck, will avoid 10$+ cards....
so the deck has to function well whit cards around 5$ and less
5 - does not attract to much board HATE ( Jhoira of the Ghitu ) doesnt need to be low profile, but a homing missile turn 1 is never fun
6 - interchangeability commander would be a plus nice little bonus ( think of Rafiq of the Many and Jenara, Asura of War )
commanders on my radar are :
:symb::symu::symg:Vorosh, the Hunter
:symb::symu::symg:The Mimeoplasm
:symb::symu:Oona, Queen of the Fae
:symb::symu:Sygg, River Cutthroat
:symb::symu:Lazav, Dimir Mastermind
:symu::symr::symg:Animar, Soul of Elements
:symu::symr::symg:Maelstrom Wanderer
i'm open to suggestion and opinions
I have brewed ideas, from (mono green, to UG, to GW)
now i'm looking for constructive advice and feedback on a casual, but hopefully powerfull landfall shenigans
the deck list
4x Baloth Woodcrasher
3x Grazing Gladehart
2x Kor Skyfisher
2x Quirion Ranger
1x Ruin Ghost
4x Sakura-Tribe Scout
4x Steppe Lynx
2x Yavimaya Elder

2x Sejiri Steppe
4x Selesnya Sanctuary
2x Sunspring Expedition
2x Mwonvuli Acid-Moss
cards that are omited for now, but i keep coming back to look
I actualy tested a little bit the deck, everything seems to be working well,
I also tried a mono black variant ( http://pdcmagic.com/gatherling/deck.php?mode=view&id=23573 )
that is also good
of all the cards, i think the card i like the least is augur of skulls
because he is way to slow .. i think i will try to remove them and place hymn of torach instead.
so .. maybe i should try it out whit scepter
i was considering trying out shriekmaw and scepter, and switch augur of skulls
