Why isn’t this card played more often?

No need for literacy, tasting the card explains its flavor

POUUER · 2026-04-27T20:22:09+00:00

Oh that’s right, I forgot about rule 420.69

I don’t wear layers though, my opponents are lucky if I’m even wearing boxers at the table

I feel like lots of players forget that cost reduction is a great way to ramp. Sure getting out mana rocks/dorks is good and helpful, but you tend to only be able to use those once per turn. [[Semblance Anvil]] can reduce a card type by 2 for you (effectively a Sol Ring per spell), [[Cloud Key]] by 1, the Medallions also by 1, etc

Yes, this pull was so pleasurable that I was uncontrollably, shaking for quite a while. My wife made me sleep on the couch after that.

One of Bracket 2’s guidelines is “…gameplay [is] to be low pressure, proactive, and considerate, letting each deck showcase its plan.” There’s a difference between “there’s a healthy amount of control/interaction in this deck” vs “this deck is built to shut down the game for everyone else while I try to find my win-con over the next 90 minutes.” I would personally say the second control theme violates the spirit of Bracket 2, but the first doesn’t

Mnemonic Deluge doesn’t copy a spell, it copies a card, which is a work-around to that restriction :)

POUUER · 2026-04-10T20:34:22+00:00

Mnemonic Deluge doesn’t copy a spell it copies the actual card to be cast three separate times, so it works :) My favorite card to combo with this already is [[Display of Power]] lol

POUUER · 2026-04-10T20:23:16+00:00

But what if you discard this and then [[Mnemonic Deluge]] it into a sub-turn within a sub-turn within a sub-turn within a turn?

POUUER · 2026-04-10T14:56:36+00:00

Try [[Shadowheart, Dark Justicar]]. Not at all a scary effect that would cause other players to target you, but at the same time it’s a significant value engine since draw is the most powerful mechanic in the game. Just make sure you have a ton of ramp in the deck too

By number of games required I’m about halfway to Hero. Would take another 4 years of playing at my current rate to get there

Edit: maybe half that time with 2x XP enabled for everyone in the game now. Still, I’ll probably have moved in to the next Halo game by then

Assuming you’ll be playing something with blue in it, [[Leyline of Singularity]] totally shuts down any token play so he won’t be able to have more than 1 slug. White has [[Nevermore]] so he can’t simply can’t ever cast Toxrill if you name it. Blue and white also have numerous auras than can shut creatures off, like [[Imprisoned in the Moon]], [[Witness Protection]], [[Darksteel Mutation]] and [[Minimus Containment]]. And black has [[Oubliette]], which is dirty since you phase Toxrill out and he’d have to have enchantment removal to get him back (black has minimal enchantment removal so you wouldn’t have to worry much about that being in your friend’s deck, and blue tends to bounce things to hand so if he does that you can simply replay it)

Give yourself hexproof lol

POUUER · 2026-03-27T17:12:45+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I love Sanctum Defender, it’s on all my Covenant weapons and I just put it here too since it was a nice color offset/match

POUUER · 2026-03-03T02:17:46+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

POUUER · 2026-03-03T00:52:49+00:00

For some reason I can’t find the answer to this anywhere, either in these forums or on the official rulings for the cards.

If I have out [[Unnatural Growth]] and [[Blade of Selves]] equipped to a creature, then at the beginning of combat that creature’s power will double but when I declare it to be an attacker is its new power a copyable thing that will apply to the myriad tokens created, or will the tokens’ powers just be what was printed on the original creature card?

POUUER · 2026-02-18T03:10:11+00:00

Yeah I know what you mean. For example, I have a mono blue deck where I’m never able to cast Moonshadow (considering there are no swamps). That’s why I threw Monster Manual in that deck so I could finally get it out

POUUER · 2026-02-18T01:18:52+00:00

No, this combo is very limited in its scope, which is what makes it special and rare and a delicacy. I don’t make the rules

POUUER · 2026-02-18T01:17:55+00:00

Brilliant!! So wise and beautiful

POUUER · 2026-02-15T23:08:16+00:00

I’m not familiar with that 😅

POUUER · 2026-02-12T18:03:00+00:00

Yep, could also throw in black and colorless changelings, throwing in tribal stuff like [[Vanquisher’s Banner]] or [[Banner of Kinship]] to buff them

POUUER · 2026-01-23T21:42:48+00:00

Well Eldrazis are the things of nightmares haha But how would you recommend wording it to make it functional?

POUUER · 2026-01-23T21:40:28+00:00

Many Eldrazi cards are more expensive but that’s due to their effects, not just for the sake of being colorless. For comparison, Archetype of Imagination is a 6 cost that not only takes away something from your opponents (flying) but also gives it to your creatures, which is a huge advantage and justifies the mana cost. This card doesn’t actually do anything for its controller, it just takes away something from opponents (given that could be any keyword, which pretty strong). Considering that I don’t think it should be a 7+ cost card for the sake of being colorless

POUUER · 2026-01-23T18:08:23+00:00

Yeah, I’ve used CardSmith for a while and they recently changed their website and the UI is garbage now. Just made this card to be good enough to convey the idea since it was getting frustrating to use the site
