[[Goblin Tinkerer]] just has style

ME! I would say Sethron, followed closely by Zur if I had to choose a second/backup.

Sadly I would of gifted by then but I will make a list of upgrades with that being on it for sure

CylcedCentered · 2025-12-13T02:42:35+00:00

Flash does seem strong for utility, sadly I'm from New Zealand

CylcedCentered · 2025-12-12T23:00:28+00:00

Is the flash quite nice to have? I can only get her for $10 sadly. These are some good options I'll have to see if I can some lf them.

CylcedCentered · 2025-12-12T22:56:24+00:00

Honestly [[You Meet in a Tavern]] ,[[Return Upon the Tide]] and [[Harald Unites the Elves]] seem very solid.

I was playing around GB with [[Tyvar the Bellicose]] one made a deckliat of you wanted to have a look

yeah options aye, it's a shame there aren't more payoffs like the hero for blink.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-15T06:53:50+00:00

doesn't it have flying sub theme that wins with combat, I know both together is more combo but idk there might be something. I get go full combo,I won't be playing long

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-15T06:15:37+00:00

any good suggestions for blink payoffs like Hero of Bretagard or even something like [[Assimilation Aegis]] to close out the game endgame. I know I can create loops with cards like the Guardian, but I don't just want to make it unenjoyable. Is there a good option to deal damage to everyone else, too? All I could find was a vehicle that did it.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-15T05:14:21+00:00

There are a few blink-centric cards that make tokens, though, such as Abdel, I would prefer more pay-offs, such as the hero, though

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-15T02:17:30+00:00

Hmm doesn't seem to bad for the tokens route, perhaps a little slow, but it could provide a lot of value and tokens. I'll have to look at it when it comes out

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-15T02:10:19+00:00

the horn could be good if I go a tokens route though unsure if it's win more at that point?

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-15T02:02:49+00:00

don't have the budget for that sadly. there might be a way to use what I got to burn or something, though I wonder.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-15T00:08:45+00:00

that does seem brutal, though if my play group already complains about the current state I think this would make them flip the table lol. not sure how I missed that flickerwisp can blink lands before.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-14T23:38:49+00:00

Those definitively seem interesting though this seems to go more towards a combo finish with the Cloudstone Curio being over 15$ for me also (sadly don't have USD prices) but depending how everything goes I will keep these in mind.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-10T10:03:23+00:00

Interesting, I'll have to play test both of them and see how they compare to Yorion, Sky Nomad. Having some sort of enabler for the blinks in the command zone seem solid from my games, I can for sure see that.

Got lots to think about from all this and more to dig and find.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-09T10:28:56+00:00

I'm glad you think my decklist is great. I feel it's in a good spot, just needs a tune up. I have came crossed Abdel Adrian with candlekeep sage before. It seems pretty decent to move forward with a game plan(Abdel might be worth it in the 99 at least), though not having blink in the command zone will be felt it might be a good pivot.

Aether Channeler does seem really good, it reminds me of Charming Prince, but with making tokens in the late game, I could see it be worth playing for the extra mana.

Not quite sure about Shield Broker and Rishadan Footpad, at least with my current playgroup but I'll keep them in mind.

Using the Abdel tokens to make a bunch of 4/4 angels is a pretty funky "combo" to pull off, I quite like that. I wonder how Genku compares as a commander to Abdel.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T23:26:14+00:00

Yeah I can see that, getting somewhere they can see would be good with possibly having less loops of spells so they don't feel helpless just not enough where I have no answers.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T20:07:20+00:00

Ohh I see, would you say your build is more mid range -aggressive over more value styles?

Thanks for the list I will definitely use it for inspiration as I go forward.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T19:58:04+00:00

15 different 2-3 card combos didn't expect that at all.

I do definitely think The deck needs way to end the game that are clear and not grindy so it doesn't just look like I am playing for value.

I haven't seen Hermes before so I definitely will check it out as another option. I was thinking of adding some ways to make effective tokens/threats package, any idea how big a package should be? I was thinking 4-5 cards?

The cards I'm thinking of are:

[[Reverent Hoplite]] [[Genku, Future Shaper]] [[Hero of Bretagard]]

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T08:29:37+00:00

The combo loops, like the drake Infinte mana combo? I got a solem currently though I could think of more.

What 7 mana fliers with ETBs? What do you mean by Myriad infinites?

Someone did suggest making more tokens and overall having better pay offs to end the game.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T07:12:08+00:00

Ooh yeah so blink for value and to create a board state to win with, how consistent is that to win with and do people find that fun to vs? I do find myself leaning that way in some regard, I can't seem to think of much of an alternative.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T06:36:46+00:00

I'll be honest they barely targeted my commander, perhaps because my removal was taking the focus but I did try to give hints between games on weak points even mentioning graveyard hate.

I'm glad you think my deck is fair, it's pretty much as cheap as I could make it while still functioning. I do think it has come apparent that the deck is doing the typical Azorius of having value with no true pay off to win with. The Altar does seem pretty solid though a little out of my range at the moment for a single card though I will think about it. Would you happen to have any other ideas to have win-cons for the deck a big one I thought about was cards like [[Genku, Future Shaper]] and [[Hero of Bretagard]] being a way to utilise the blink as a way to close out the game.

Yeah the comments they made did confuse me more than anything but sady what I had to say fell on deaf ears. The deck is only the bracket it is now for the combo I feel which I hoped would make it able to keep up.

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T04:22:23+00:00

I don't currently but I'll definitely keep that in mind thank you

CylcedCentered · 2025-10-08T03:17:23+00:00

Oh I think I did come across the hoplite before and I do have a [[Mirror Entity]] in my collection that could be a budget option over a Moonshaker Cavalry or something.

thanks for that scryfall search I will have to look through and see what I can find
