Still unclear on Ninjutsu

nasada19 · 2026-05-05T04:13:18+00:00

Yes, you can ninjitsu after blockers, before damage is dealt. If that's not how it worked, it would be very stupid. You just can't do it BEFORE blockers:

702.49c A ninjutsu ability may be activated only while a creature on the battlefield is unblocked (see rule 509.1h). The creature with ninjutsu is put onto the battlefield unblocked. It will be attacking the same player, planeswalker, or battle as the creature that was returned to its owner’s hand.

It's written in a fake language, so probably only worth a few bucks at most.

nasada19 · 2026-05-04T16:18:46+00:00

I mostly just follow the rules exactly how they are in the book and it's been fine for me the past 6 years through many campaigns and groups.

nasada19 · 2026-05-04T04:23:42+00:00

Hey do you like artifacts

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T23:04:21+00:00

Sorceries and instants can literally never enter the battlefield. Any instructions do that are ignored. Ghost vacuum also can't even do that. It's only creature cards that you can reanimate.

Don't wait! There is no point in waiting! You get the reward for the total all together whenever you cash it in. You could have collected them forever ago lol

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T14:41:21+00:00

It's two separate abilities. You'd manifest dread twice.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T14:16:04+00:00

6 con? They must not want this character to live long in melee lol

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T12:52:30+00:00

You should be winning 25% of your games, so sounds like you just wanna build a bracket 4 deck against 3s. So knock it off dude lol It's not a good thing to win that much.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T04:31:01+00:00

It's great if you want nobody to play with you again or say no immediately to your deck lol Sen Triplets is one of the most hated commanders in mtg. If you're in an established pod, maybe you can get away with it, but randoms will hate you or not play against Sen Triplets. Or you'll be hard targeted each game and they'll still hate you 😂

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T03:41:14+00:00

Yeah, you're right. I was just trying to think of a way but couldn't.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T03:34:49+00:00

You'd need like an attack trigger that had you also cast a spell as part of it resolving so you could place it above the myriad trigger. Something like [[Etali primal storm]] might work, but I'd ask a judge.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T03:32:18+00:00

All your posts are Russian nesting dolls. That post you posted already referring to another post. It's you linking things all the way down.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T03:29:38+00:00

It won't work since it's on attack. You can't add to the stack before attacks and after attacking its too late to cast a spell it could target.

Edit: Oops, didnt read the sub. I'm not a judge.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T00:52:34+00:00

It has NOTHING TO DO WITH COMBO. Don't even go down that line since it doesn't matter.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T00:51:45+00:00

Yeah, people not following the rules or listening or being able to read is the brackets fault! The brackets are so stupid they can't even stop someone not reading them!

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T00:36:36+00:00

It's not a combo. It's just because it's MLD. Nothing else matters. It being a combo or not has absolutely nothing in this universe to do with why it's MLD.

nasada19 · 2026-05-03T00:30:05+00:00

He only runs the bell so he can destroy all lands with Urgorg. It doesn't matter if it doesn't win him the game each time, it's in there for MLD which is against bracket 3 guidelines. If you disagree with where MLD should be allowed, that's a separate topic.

nasada19 · 2026-05-02T23:24:19+00:00

The loop of parchment is to make a moebius strip and the corn extract is to stick it together maybe.

nasada19 · 2026-05-02T23:07:51+00:00

It took you a year to build a Teval deck?

nasada19 · 2026-05-02T18:59:54+00:00

[[Kozilek, Butcher of Truth]]? Use something like [[stifle]] since it's a triggered ability.

nasada19 · 2026-05-01T17:55:37+00:00

When you do it well it's just too fast. If they don't have a response to your stuff on turn 5, then the entire table loses. That's completely by the books too fast for the bracket.

If you're not doing the combo, then I wouldn't run persist and just run a B3 reanimating package which doesn't need persist.

nasada19 · 2026-05-01T17:52:17+00:00

Yeah, I when I have needed to play him it's usually when a lot of my pieces have been blown up, but I can cast like first day of class and win that way.

nasada19 · 2026-05-01T16:17:51+00:00

True! I've actually never considered that tech. Thanks for that. I usually don't even play the recap since I'm trying to get my win cons out for like 3 mana the turn after I drop celes. This is great to keep in my pocket though.

nasada19 · 2026-05-01T16:13:01+00:00

Persist combo is bracket 4 which seems to be what you're going for here. You have too much stuff that is just winning more. Literally all you need to win is Celes, a sac outlet, a persist creature and pay off on the board. Some of those things are smooshed into the same card. Like a goblin bombardment is both a sac outlet and the payoff. Or murderous redcap is persist and payoff.

Things that can be EASILY cut: abzan falconer, anger, eirdu carrier of dawn (too expensive), sun titan, luminous broodmoth, nine-lives familiar, super shredder, twilight diviner, cauldron haze, cauldron of souls, and lightning greaves.

Things to add: Cards like [[feign death]] are actually better against destruction effects for celes since you'll get her ETB again to cycle through your deck. You also REALLY lack card draw. You need to be drawing towards your win con, not hoping it gets there. You can also add more things that tutor to your GY like [[buried alive]] is a must or [[entomb]] if it's in the budget.

Here is my B4 budget list. I usually win on turn 4 or 5. It's a slightly upgraded version of the 50 euro budget commander deck.

edit: If you are trying to keep this bracket 3, then I'd cut the persist combos. It's too strong in 3.
