    You know that Collected Company is an auto include right? Less clunky spells, more creatures, just cast that thing eot, gain value, Witness, sink+repeat.

    Stern Proctor? Not exactly the same, but it's ok if you need to deal with pesky permanents and then go off.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Whoops didn't see the missing Strix md, yeh I'm suggesting it md and cutting wishes. Strix is good, as coiling is, in fact I'd probably run a 4/3 Coiling/Strix split, considering that you want G...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Drop something and add Chain of Vapor, at least 1. 22 Lands are too many, considering you are playing Deathrite you should be fine with 21. Play the 4th Coiling because it's the best creature in the...

    Splashing white gives you E-tutor, but it's not worth it even with this creature.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Well, I think is ok to run Dream Stalker considering that it has a marginal utility pre-combo (non targeted bounce for your Coiling Oracle, play Oracle again next turn for value, leave a 1/5 wall on...

    You can go off through Raven + Harpy, and you need less life than Harpy+ Coiling/ Strix.

    Strix is perfectly playable if you still play Wall of Blossom since is a Wall you can combo off with. But Agent? never thought about that and never tried it. But cascading into more combo pieces, or...

    I guess it's time to test different builds/solutions. Therefore congrats to Nonex to bring that innovative build in a competitive environment and doing well. I'm going to test...

    Well Nonex, what else can I say, congrats on getting top16 with Recless Aluren. I'm definitely going to test your build.

    Probes: they should be important in the Ubased.deck matchup, for example...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    So here we have this list, which is a reelaboration of the old Explorer/ Intent lists we were brewing 2 years ago.

    1 Parasitic Strix
    4 Cavern Harpy
    4 Coiling Oracle
    4 Selkie Hedge-Mage
    4...

    Re: the new Strix

    I'd say its a decent alternative to Wall of Blossom, you can now run up to 8 2 cc creatures which pitch to fow and let you go off with an Aluren and an Harpy. Sometimes blue count is a problem, and...

    Playing more than 1 Parasitic Strix is useless, as you never want to see it pre combo.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Ok srsly Nonex where are Fows? :)

    I'd probably cut Phantasmal Image, as I don't really see Natural Order being a problem for Aluren. You need (and should use properly) protections, in the form of...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    The solution is:

    a) Ignore the turn 1 lackey (I am not going to worry about a deck which represent less than 2% of the meta) as in the past I've raced turn 1 lackeys easily...just drop some...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Hey, that's an old list of mine. I'd really increase the number of Coiling Oracle in it, probably cutting a Selkie Hedge Mage.

    Edit: and probably upping the land count to 21.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    I dislike Hymn in Aluren. The fact is that playing them forces you to get BB, and if you want BB turn 2 while having the possibility of casting Aluren turn 4, I think you should play more Bayou, and...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Correct. For example, facing an aggro deck, casting Recruiter fetching Wall of Blossom, cantripping while having 2 chumpblockers is a neat play. Of course I'd do this only to prevent fatal damage.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Good luck and please write a report. :D

    And: only 3 Recs? is that a budget issue?

    By the way, God knows how much I'd want non Rec Aluren become playable...but this is impossible right now.

    I never tested it in a Non Rec list, and I'm not sure it can perform as good as in the Rec list. The fact is that probably the former version has a very tight list in which you cannot make room for...
