Power levelling power saccing power milling power pumping power spawning spiders

You'll have so many spiders

FOUR HUNDRED SPIDERS

Give your spiders Craterhoof and they'll all get TRAMPLE!

They'll hit as hard as DRAGONS!

They'll be attacking like DRAGONS people will think they're actual DRAGONS and they block a bunch of DRAGONS and they'll trade off and be deported off to TARKIR.

Craterhoof! The only creature that'll make you AAAAAA SWINGS AAAAAAAAAA

Yea, card does not seem fair in the slightest.

 

 

Anyway, talking to my friend about building a Karlov deck and I came across an interesting topic. What cards do you think are near staples? Like things you'll almost always play if your playing that color. On the topic of Karlov and WB I immediately thought of Sun Titan, Elsepth, Sun's Champion, and Erebos. Curious what you guys have to say.

Honestly I was really starved for ideas and just pulled a mana creature out of my ass. Craterfoot Behemoth in anything Green with aggro?

 

I threw together a first draft of Arjun (the Izzet sphinx) on TappedOut, thinking of building him, as he initially struck me as really weird and not very useful, but the more I look at him the more silly and crazy combos emerge. Here's the list, if any of you wanna take a look, it's my take on an Izzet mill. Would love your thoughs on it (ignore the Niv-Mizzet in the commander section, that's a placeholder till Arjun gets added)-

EDIT: Got half on an Ezuri deck made as well: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/e-zur-is-a-pain-in-the-a/

Sounds like you need Oracle of Mul Daya and Courser of Kruphix.

 

Also, if we're posting decks. One of my first two babies. Very proud of it. Don't plan on making any changes with C15 so this is what will be like until I find something new and sweet to add.

And since I know some people like seeing a written list. Here it is on Tapped Out

Flamey, your deck is begging for Primal Surge. You already have all permanents, so you might as well spew them out in a blaze of glory.

 

Everything in the deck is a permeant. I never realized that. Yea, if surge is good anywhere it would be here.

 

Verdant Eidolon is all kinds of brilliant in here.

 

Dracogenius feels underwhelming.

Draco is a win con if I get Untap guy + Deadeye. Though maybe I don't need that many since I already have several others.

Nearly anything can be a wincon when you get infinite mana through Deadeye Palinchron.

Niv can also win off of Palinchron+Animar, which with Fauna Shaman and Fierce Empath, both of which can be searched by Woodland Bellower, seems like a fairly consistent combo.

 

I think this deck could really use a Mosswort Bridge.

I actually did something similar a couple days ago. Woodland get Empath get Palinchron with Deadeye in play.

 

Agree that Mosswort Bridge should go in the deck. I've been meaning to pick up a few copies but keep forgetting since other cards come along and take my focus. The new commander deck reminded me and I'll likely get some in the near future.

So, I'm at a bit of a dilemma here.

 

Keranos has assimilated some elements of the Izzet C15 deck, but my experience playing with the precon has informed me that Mizzix is incredible functionally. (I Word of Seizing'd an opponent's Tamiyo and ulti'd her. The result was friggin' glorious.)

 

Trouble is that Mizzix heavily favours X spells and Inexorable Tide, in contrast to Keranos who likes his permanents for devotion purposes.

 

Keranos gameshow or Mizzix the Science Izzet? "Why not both" is not an answer here due to how thinly resources are spread if I take that option.

I think Mizzix is far more interesting to build around.

Looking to improve this deck. It was my first Commander deck, and I'd really like to draw it up to the level of my other guys. Description of how I'd like to change it is in the deck description, I'd love your guys' insights on it.

Elspeth. 100% put Sun's Champion in the deck. I think she fits into any white deck since both abilities are insane on her and white normally wants at least one of them. New Gideon is also good, but he costs a fair bit. Hero of Bladehold also fits very well into this deck but that too has some cost issues. Sun Titan is also the best thing ever in any White deck.

 

One of the things that really helped me when I made Iroas was looking to see what other people did. You can find some really cool tricks that you might not have thought about otherwise.
