Master of Cruelties is the usual silly pick for effects like that.
Yeah, it's the same as Kaalia of the Vast.
Grenzo, Dungeon Warden seems to have grindy creature based synergy with Gyrus. For some MtG formats, you could probably build a card advantage engine around them.
1st - Land(Islandish) - Mana Dork
2nd - Land(Mountainish) - Buried Alive (Anger/MOC/(Wonder for Evasion))
3rd - Gyrus FTW?

Actually . . . if you can do Buried Alive . . . why not just go for Anger/Karmic Guide(or Body Double)/Grizzy, Gyrus etb, haste, attack, get Karmic Guide(or Body Double), get a 7/7 lifelinker demon with haste. . . i guess you can conitnue a combo or something, but that seems solid as is? (Although yes, way less complicated ways of getting Grizzy out).
What are the rules about creating tokens with replacement effects? Like can I attack with this, grab Clone and clone something?
Yes.
Yeah, that's the reason people talk about the 'value' thing. If you're spending the effort to cheat stuff into play, then there are better ways to go, but if you're running jund with etb stuff like Bedlam Reveler and Abbot of Keral Keep it might work to give reach.Originally Posted by circe
Looking through the most Modern (minus DRS) Legacy Jund creature basis I see:
Dark Confidant
Scavenging Ooze
Grim Flayer
Tarmogoyf
Bloodbraid Elf
Grim Lavamancer
Eidolon of the Great Revel
No real ETB creatures - but I guess you can recur Goyf/Frayer for outsize beats . . . You obviously can't run BBE, since you need to spend mana to cast Gyrus . . . so I guess the question is whether Gyrus > BBE & if you would want to rebuild Jund with more ETB creatures.
"Traditionally" in the Oozing strategy, Buried Alive (Necrotic Ooze, Triskelion and Phyrexian Devourer) + Reanimate targetting Necrotic Ooze will win the game on the spot without even going into combat. 2BB and 2 cards sure is a lot of resources, though, and the combo pieces are nearly dead weight without the combo (excluding Necrotic Ooze attacks, no blocks, before damage Entomb for Phyrexian Devourer, activate Ooze N times, deal 60+ combat damage).
For what it's worth, I've just noticed that Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow combines nicely with Mirror Entity as it makes everybody a ninja. Throw in some Bitterblossoms, Lingering Souls, Strixes and TNNs and go to town. Not sure if that's a viable midrange plan, but it sounds fun to screw around with, as it draws cards AND drains the opponent. Since you're probably going to have multiple triggers, putting stuff back with Brainstorm becomes extra deadly.
