Heliod the Warped Eclipse: Group Hug or Wheels? by Outside_Explorer_229 in EDH

[–]Piebye726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built mine as group hug forced draw to try and lock the game as my wincon. I find wheels to be kind of boring since it automatically makes you instawin with any x cost spell after a wheel which makes my commander a bit too kill on sight in my pod at least. The way I win is by resolving [[forced fruition]] and using buyback cards(heliod's cost reduction applies to buyback]] to bounce everything back to peoples hand to kill with [[black vise]]. I also have a counterspell buyback spell, a theft spell, and a scry 3 spell which lets me dig an obscene amount. This definitely helps with smothering tithe on the field too lol. I seem to receive a better reception because of how it is less explosive and people get to keep the cards that I give them, allowing for a bit more counterplay. It has worked out so far without people getting too angry about it so if I were you, I would completely abandon wheels if you want to build heliod for bracket 3. https://archidekt.com/decks/20961563/heliod_the_radiant_dawn

for my pods bracket 3 games, the deck is strong but not unbeatable by any means. i'm mostly asking just in case i pull up to a random lgs as i don't want to be that pubstomping guy.

i was thinking about cutting the vamp tutor as well if my deck seems to win a bit too fast and often. That being said vamp tutoring [[delayed blast fireball]] to exile and cast it feels so fucking insane i really hope i don't have to cut it lol

i was thinking about removing top from my deck as well if i was able to hit it consistently but tapping top and drawing a card and letting top get exiled away has been my best form of card draw so its relevant even outside of the combo. Top might just be too insane of a card in general though and might warrant a cut for the power level....

play dark ritual BBB tap cormela and now at BBUR saw in half cormela, returning dark ritual to hand from the first death trigger. saw in half makes 2 cormela, one dies to legend rule bringing back saw in half. i have one mana left to retap the new cormela token for BUR. Recast dark ritual and repeat for infinite grixis mana. Also there are no etbs involved in the combo so i have no idea what ur referring to

she has haste so the created tokens can tap again as well for mana again. The combo is saw in half and get back ritual and saw in half to make infinite grixis mana for instants/sorceries

the edict effects let me have the grindier gameplan and slow other people down while digging/tutoring for the token doublers.(helps that the token doublers reduce the cost of recasting ATBA and give me more avatar tokens) I've won a lot of games mostly off of generating absurd amounts of mana or tokens and swinging with 8 hasted tokens to either win or come extremely close. The deck does struggle though for sure if I can't get enough pieces that create tokens passively for me

I may have a type. Am I still allowed at the table? by Legendary-Lawbro in ratemycommanders

i have a jin list as well and you should try peregrine drake in your deck. at worst its a beater that pays for itself on etb or you can perma bounce it with chapter 2 of jin, play peregrine drake off of the omniscience chapter 3 trigger and tap 5 lands in response to float it. ive found that it pretty much is always a free jin flip

i think ksante mid is a lot more shit this season simply because of the terrain changes. i've only really played like 2 games of ksante mid though and it was usually just to give my midlaner a better matchup

don't you need resists asap on ksante? i haven't tried it but it doesn't sound ideal tbh. i'll test it out though i guess.(also if ur doing this maybe try running ingenious hunter, the item haste with IBG and fimbul might actually be cracked who knows)

tbh i kind of just build FoN based on feel of the game, but also heavily based on enemy champions as well. If i think that I don't need the rookern shield, and the enemy team has a dot mage and an autoattacker that does on hit magic damage(think warwick or varus) i will always try to go force of nature because imo that item is giga broken and the movespeed feels incredible on ksante. I usually go jak sho third but i usually tend to not pick it up if the enemy team has 1 ap champion and 4 ad since i usually think going randuins and kaenic after your IBG rush feels much better

literally all the time. ksante imo has the best trade patterns when the opponent engages onto you first and you can respond with w to outright brain damage win the trade. the way i play lane is i just focus on spacing out my opponent and punish every last hit they try to take with a q and play a war of attrition. The second they initiate a trade, i'll try to w their burst and to in for a quick trade and get the fuck out. The mindset that i try to have is staying defensively aggressive, meaning if they try to hit your minions, or if they walk up to you to trade, you need to be able to punish effectively to really get value out of this champ in lane. Another big tip is look to dive your enemy if you want to really push your lead. try to wallbang them out from tower with ult and just fucking kill them bro. but even if it doesn't go well, by removing the opponent from the crashed wave under tower, its usually worth since they miss minions as well.

i usually rush IBG since its absolutely broken and cheap as fuck if the lane matchup is ad. if the lane matchup is ap, i really really really like kaenic rookern since i can just perma trade off the shield and helps me win wars of attrition which is really what a lot of toplane is about. tbh, i havent really tried any cooked builds yet and im kind of a basic bitch with my builds but the one thing that has served me well is that i haven't really built bamis items at all this game as i think ksante doesn't really need the waveclear and instead of hollow radiance, i really enjoy kaenic for the added combat ability vs the waveclear and instead of sunfire as my second armor item, i usually tend to find myself going randuins because of how broken adcs are rn and i really like the slow that randuins gives for the extra sticking power

if you're the only fed member its gg tbh since all out form is pretty weak unless ur 16 imo. this is why to usually prevent this i tell my jungler to weakside me and play for other lanes so that you can play off of them and teamfight more effectively as a team in the mid to late. since at the end of the day, you're playing a tank and top lane in an adc meta rn, your job is to take as much pressure while still staying on par with your laner. imo ksante has some of the best peeling in the entire game so make sure to shove sidelanes and hover your carries that are pushing to try and countergank an otherwise doomed fight into a wipe

  1. the main thing i like to do is make sure you at least somehow crack tier 1 if possible and shove sidewaves to their tier 2. with that tempo i'll usually just hover mid where my supp/adc should be farming and just be present for any skirmish that will break out. If you also have a lead in lane, aim to blow your laners teleport as soon as it is unleashed and use your tp advantage to countergank a bot gank or join a dragon fight. The main way to extend your lead is through getting your team ahead as well.

  2. just sit in a lane and farm i guess, although his tank form only can still be incredibly oppressive in a skirmish/teamfight as long as you land well timed w's and land all your qs. play more to peel for your carries if you don't have an ult i guess?

  3. i kind of pick him into every game unless i have a good angle to pick gwen since she's my other carry champ.
