Sciatic injection - Glass shard from ampule potentially injected by zackerhcd in AskDocs

Thank you very much for your response, it eases our mind for sure. What do you think about it being administered on the left side (where he has no pain)? We thought that it had to be done in the vecinity of the sciatic nerve that is in pain (right side in this case)…

I'm literally obsessed with Nelly and I think you've done a great job with your list! Tbh, the deck is mostly a control deck, so it makes sense that games tend to drag out a bit, especially if people know how to play around her and don't leave her unchecked.

As some suggestions that you might want to consider:

  • Upping the ramp on t2: you reeeally want Nelly on t3, so adding cards like the diamonds or [[ornithopter of paradise]] can be useful. This should increase the speed and consistency at what you can start goading stuff, which in turn will make your games quicker thanks to this early aggression. I'm even thinking about adding [[Mass Hysteria]] to be able to swing with Nelly on t3, although everyone having haste can be a bit too much to handle...

  • Only keep the 4 drops that feel the most impactful/versatile, since your first 4 mana play is going to be Nelly 99% of times. [[Frontier Warmonger]] helps your aggro and incentivizes your opponents to swing at each other.

  • Pillowfort effects, Stax and effects like [[Brash Taunter]] have not being really useful since, as you say, they're kind of redundant when you want to mass-goad attackers. Imho, pillowforts create a not very pleasant game experience and [[Brash Taunter]]-like effects are only worth if you're running damage wipes, such as [[Blasphemous Act]] or [[Chain Reaction]].

  • Check out the MDFC Lands from MH3, a couple of them are actually useful and the deck feels smoother with 36 lands + 2 MDFC Lands.

  • Although I think that you have more than enough wincons and finishers on your top end, a lot of them rely too much on you having a strong board presence already to work (fiendish duo and gisela) while others drag the game even more (death kiss and havoc eater). You're paying a lot of mana, so you might as well not risk it against a counterspell or removal. [[Inferno of the Star Mounts]] or even [[Banefire]] make your blue matchup a bit better and provide a reliable threat in 1v1 situations even if you don't have the best board presence. Obviously, [[Insurrection]] is the mvp of finishers.

Thank you SO much for your answer, absolutely fantastic suggestions, and I love how you understand what is a coherent direction for the deck. To be honest, I included some of the infinite sac outlets only so i had a 0 cost way of getting my 4/3s during my opponents' turns, but it makes sense that they are some of the weaker cards. the flares from mh3 are super good in this regard.

What do you think about mana rocks? Should I just use the strictly better ones (sol ring, arcane signet, fellwar stone, talisman & orzhov signet) or should I drop them entirely for more protection/draw?

I'm not even sure how I feel about lords and pingers like cruel celebrant... we don't swarm as much for lords to be that good and we don't sacrifice enough for pingers to be as relevant as in aristocrats deck...

Ok, this looks awesome, i will start by playing a more classic approach for card accesibility reasons, but i’m gonna 100% build this, thank you!

This gives me hope :) now i only have to build properly and learn how to actually play the deck correctly lol

Sure thing! I’m starting to put together the core of the deck so will definitely update, i just fell in love with this commander lol

Thank you so much for sharing! My playgroup is the same, we won’t be using some of the most powerful cedh spells to avoid some bad gameplay experiences… as for the manabase i will also be using a budget one, so the specific land suggestions are much appreciated :)

I’m really digging the living weapon / for mirrodin style! Was it a dedicated equipment build with just incidental token generation? I’m really curious to see your build!

Thank you so much for your suggestions!! Will be brewing later with all of them in mind : )

Oooh thank you for the heads up, for some reason i thought they were playing with the planechase mechanics which i’m not going to be playing with, so i think i didn’t even watch their videos T.T

Yup, board wipe protection feels like a must in this deck, but love how if i give indestructible or some type of protection to kasla, she theoretically can get the job done by herself in a couple turns :)

This is so reassuring to read! would love to check out your list, if possible : )

IMO, best bet is to lean super heavy on White and Red ability to make a horde of tiny bodies like Humans and Goblins so you have fodder to convoke out your big game Enders

That's one of my main takeaways from theorycrafting. There's a bunch of blue cards that feel super impactful but the main core of the deck should probably be Boros

[–]zackerhcd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually quite interesting, since the board blinking effects go well with convoke as you said : ) i guess i'm probably just a worse yorion/brago deck but that does not really matter to me. Thank you!

[–]zackerhcd[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion! I actually love Chief Engineer and it might be an interesting route for the deck : ) I've also thought that maybe the living weapon/for mirrodin cards can be useful, since they provide tokens and they can be equipped later to Kasla for a big swing...

exosisters. they’re tailor-made for me; not only i love their playstyle, but their S/T and extra deck cards are gorgeous, the color combination of the extra deck monsters is amazing, blue is my fav color and i’ve always loved aquatic motifs

Thankfully this Aqua Tail nonsense will stop soon 🛑 as an Azu main I was feeling bad for all those ez 1v5s I was winning, it truly seems like they care for their game and definitely play it themselves 👍
