It's been a while since something was printed for this deck, but man is Electrodominance spicy.

Made a few changes:

Nephalia Smuggler

Sower of Discord

Conventional wisdom says no - you're trading your 1 card for 1/3 of your "opponent's" cards, and the average toughness of a creature in this format is something like 5 or 6. Let's not even talk about...
Wow, Apostles are $5 a piece? Time to see if I've got any laying around...
As for scry, I've been sticking Crystal Ball in more and more decks lately for the same reason. It's not a creature for...
I would see the -7 being potentially good if the +1 made the token, but as it stands the two abilities you actually want are -X abilities and therefore actively work against each other. You have to...
Really? The +1 doesn't seem like it does all that much for you basically ever. A thopter is fine, but your deck doesn't care about artifacts or gaining life, and plenty of walkers make tokens if a...
Quick update:
- Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist, + Twilight Drover
Stumbled across Twilight Drover in a box of cards and it seems like it could be good in this deck. Mirri doesn't really have a ton...
Intangible Virtue hit the cut pile fairly early on because it doesn't really do much. Turning a pile of 1/1 dudes into 2/2 dudes can actually be kind of rough if you want to get Skullclamp going, and...
The first draft of the deck had Sundering Growth instead of Sundering Vitae because of the populate. I made the switch because they have basically the same effect - I can tap Emmara for the convoke...
I got a couple GRN packs for the holidays and opened a copy of Emmara, Soul of the Accord. At first, I was more than a little underwhelmed...but I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I brewed this...
Yeah, you're right. I don't know why I didn't get there yesterday.
Made a quick change:
Out:
Vedalken Orrery
In:
Ghostly Flicker
It is and it isn't. The catch is the way Silumgar is worded, and also how soulbond works. If I soulbond with Silumgar and flicker, I lose whatever I had previously stolen. Smuggler is a little...
Necroing the hell out of this thread because I keep coming back to this deck for whatever reason. It's together for a while, then it's apart for something else...but I keep putting it back together...
Insurrection is honestly too easy and a little boring sometimes...but you've got to win somehow, right? I definitely recommend a sacrifice outlet or two if you're going on that plan. Goblin...
Thanks to the current trend of red cards being purely aggressive and/or strictly worse than existing cards, it's been quite a while since there was something new for this deck. I did make one change...
A few changes:
- Reflector Mage, + Man-o'-war
I know Reflector Mage is the better card, but after I got burned by the "can't cast" part of Reflector Mage following a weird sequence where...
Is it? Atraxa proliferates at your end step, and the counters come off of your relic in main phase 1. Either way you do it (charge in main phase 2 to proliferate or charge in opponents turn and tap...
:cool:
At the risk of sounding dumb (just ignore me in that case), is Stronghold actually useful? Mimeoplasm wants the fatties in the graveyard so he can become them, so there's about half...
Been having a lot of fun with this deck - turns out casting free eldrazi off of attack triggers is fun. A few observations:
Cataclysmic Gearhulk is kind of cute, but 'everyone keeps their best...
Cataclysmic Gearhulk is in there too...but yeah, the deck is sort of light on wrath effects. I think if I were going to include another it would probably be Tragic Arrogance, which has a lot going...
I would expect that the Ass Trophy will be a staple in BGx decks basically forever. 2 mana to destroy a permanent at instant speed is pretty hard to leave on the cutting room floor, and the...
Do you even care about the "find a basic" part of Assassin's Trophy? I guess it's free "value" you're giving up in the event that it's pointed your way, but is the consolation prize of a basic land...
Turns out reading cards is tech. Who knew?
It might be kind of funny to slam it down and name 4 when I have a dominant board position, but eh...there have to be better things to be doing.
I've got a Sanctum Prelate sitting in a binder somewhere, but I've never really considered it in the context of EDH. I wonder what number would be the most effective to name in this format? 4 springs...
My first thought about Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign was "huh, neat". I built Aminatou, the Fateshifter instead. Then someone else in my group built an Aminatou deck with many of the same cards, and I...
