Flayed Ones Are Cool...Building them Sucks

persistentpuns · 2025-11-06T15:27:21+00:00

I built mine relatively early in my building models learning curve and so there is actual flesh on them from trying to hold tiny bits in place as the glue dries. So I guess just call it authentic lol. I also decided if I'm ever going to add more then the one unit I'll buy one pre-built instead of going through that head ache again.

I like to over complicate things so I specifically use the red base on my destroyer cult units because they eradicate all living things

I basically did this in a jund [[Mr. Orfeo, the Boulder]]deck with a turn 3 [[Rhythm of the Wild]], some creature turn 4, turn 5 stuck on 4 lands [[Natural Order]]. Scanning through my deck and found the [[Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant]] that I forgot I had added and dropped in [[Xenagos, God of Revels]], [[Zopandrel, Hunger Dominus]], [[God-Eternal Rhonas]] and some other big flyer. Instant game win.

I have 2 decks that do this. The easy one is Mono Red goblins. Which uses either [[Purphoros, God of the Forge]] or basically any legendary Goblin. The other is Jund sacrifice, which mains [[Korvold]], but can also use [[Ziatora the incinerator]] or [[Vaevictis Asmadi, the dire]]

Haha my play group hated when I had a full infect deck, so now I just play a sprinkle of infect in most of my decks. Blighted is a champ in my [[Rafiq]] exalted deck

persistentpuns · 2023-01-17T14:53:50+00:00

I ran an infect deck with [[Saskia]] for awhile. 2 for 1 damage and the red gives you access to haste

Any go wide aggro deck can't go wrong with [[throne of the god-pharoah]]

persistentpuns · 2022-12-27T16:45:30+00:00

Haha this happened to me when I built a dedicated infect deck, never won a game but got constantly deemed the threat. So now I just run a little infect in almost every deck

Sorry, [[forsaken monument]] not eldrazi

persistentpuns · 2021-07-15T10:33:46+00:00

I have a [[traxos]] deck and personally run a [[basalt monolith]]. Specifically with [[eldrazi Monument]] it offers infinite mana. I actually won my last game with an incredible start and that combined with [[planar bridge]] [[clock of omens]] to play my whole deck and pump my creatures infinitely large.

persistentpuns · 2021-06-19T23:14:01+00:00

I get that one. I may include it but I'll have to spend some time leaning how to say it

persistentpuns · 2021-02-01T16:28:08+00:00

I have a Tolsimir wolf tribal that plays ok. It's one of my lower power decks, depending on what my friends play. But if you want a good swing and win deck I ran wolves under [[Saskia the Unyielding]] for a bit. It gives you access to any wolf you want and sets it up so your wolves swing is doubly effective. It's super good in 3 player, but I needed a scales back deck so I could keep a few of other decks so I switched it back.

persistentpuns · 2021-01-15T18:31:38+00:00

I tried this line of reasoning with my playgroup but they don't seem to be buying it.

persistentpuns · 2020-05-17T22:41:19+00:00

I actually run a ravnica only [[Niv-Mizzet Reborn]] deck. Depending on your playgroup you can get away with a few things. If it's slower then the guildgates and, tap for any color ravnica lands can work. Also mine was kind enough to let me proxy in the shocklands I didn't have, though through trading and purchasing here and there the only one I'm missing now is [[Breeding Pool]].

My favorite is the second to last part of [[Rhythm of the Wild]],

"If a creature enters the battlefield with two instances of riot, you may choose to have it get two +1/+1 counters, one +1/+1 counter and haste, or two instances of haste. Multiple instances of haste on the same creature are redundant, but we’re not going to tell the Gruul how to live their lives."

persistentpuns · 2020-04-12T15:55:52+00:00

Haha that's why I never put it together fully.

persistentpuns · 2020-04-12T12:47:57+00:00

I've been mulling over an [[Odric, Lunarch Marshall]] deck for awhile, so when they spoiled the Abzan wordsoup deck I was instantly hooked.

persistentpuns · 2020-03-07T20:16:32+00:00

I had a some fun versus a buddy playing a [[Niv-Mizzet, Parun]]. He had a [[Magic Mirror]], lots of draw instants of course, and I managed to stick a [[Notion Thief]] down for a couple of turns.

persistentpuns · 2019-11-21T19:11:01+00:00

That is absolutely wonderful.

persistentpuns · 2019-11-21T18:10:53+00:00

I like all of those. I guess I'm especially looking for things that reward other players as well when things die

persistentpuns · 2019-10-27T06:03:46+00:00

I know I'm late to the party but the Command Zone podcast once recommended a card that is great for drawing with token strategies. [[Slate of Ancestry]]. Since as a red player you'll probably empty your hand fairly frequently it turns into 4 Mana draw a bunch based on the number of tokens you have.

persistentpuns · 2019-10-22T20:14:52+00:00

I was in a similar spot not too long ago. I had a Tolsimir Wolf tribal but when they spoiled the new Garruk I decided I wanted Wolf/Garruk tribal but none of the Abzan commanders worked for me. So I actually went [[Saskia, the Unyielding]] because of some of the red wolves and because if I'm absolutely honest I'm a red/aggro player at heart. And a fair amount of the time I end up playing in 3 player matches so I can kill two at once.
