the mono black teysa karlov double death trigger
it can also give itself indestructibility
while any target "kills" creatures on board is bad, i think the worst part of horobi is that it forces players to sandbag important pieces in hand or straight up cant cast their aura/ equipments
the hyper focus on killing also means the deck is weaker against non creature decks
thats a weakness that is harder to cover

Hello again @deft belfry! Small request this time around but I built a new deck around Fire Lord Azula with an aggro gameplan and I want to fit in "The Rise of Sozin" and/or "The Legend of Roku" and can't quite figure out what to cut. What could I cut in order to add them in? And are there any good aggressive pieces that I missed? Here's the deck: https://archidekt.com/decks/17074766. Thank you in advance!

in a [[the wise mothman]] deck im figuring which ramp to run, do i go with fast mana dorks bop,halfling,deathrite shaman, etc, go for land recursion, +1/+1 / power focused dorks like devoted druid or fanatic of rhonas, or do i use the average green spells to ramp. just looking for thoughts and opinions

its essentially more consistency / tutor for the combo, but isnt something that is necessary
anything that say "same name" works with it
deft belfry
in a [[the wise mothman]] deck im figuring which ramp to run, do i go with fast ...
i will answer this first seem i think i have a somewhat more clear idea;
any decks that say "counters on creature" will prefer having creature over non land permanents. BUT when it comes to mana base/ mana source, it just somewhat subjective on "how fast" and how "consistent" you get to that mana curve for the powerspike. to put it in simplier perspective, if all mana dork has no colour identity, and every deck can run 
: 
for any colour mana. a bunch BoP(s) would be very efficient in getting out your big spell eariler than all other players; at the risk of losing all that after a single boardwipe.
also, more counters on more creatures doesnt really matter if those creature is never used for combat
i think i would rate: Mana fixing > acceleration (ex. [[temple of the false god]] whatever taps for 2 or more) > land ramp ability > creature ramp > mana rock
shrewd zealotBOT
Land
: Add . Activate only if you control five or more lands.
Those who bring nothing to the temple take nothing away.
deft belfry
i would first consider the mana dorks that cares about +1 counters, i remember at least 2 of the top of my mind
and then fixing that is immunity to creature removal
hoary moth
In my list im running gyre sage, devoted druid, and Kami of the whisper hope or something. They can technically scale infinitely with counters but i have a mix between dorks to accelerate fast and dorks that scale

i dont have halfling and will probably never own one, but if i have to get BoP for mothman, i would. flying blocker is good
deathrite is somewhat of a mixed bag, it can also do many other things, but isnt guarantee mana back

Yeah early turns is debatable but mid game probably guaranteed based on everyone milling
deft belfry
i really enjoy mass ramp so [[open the way]] would be something i try to play if i can

if you care about T3 mothman, that one wouldnt work tho
hoary moth
Yeah in non mill recursion decks i would be more inclined to play onetime spell ramps but for the most part those cards become more inaccessible to me
Yk like i can eternal witness, reclaim, or some sort of flashback like effects

deft belfry
use scryfall tagger for all the rampant growth effect
hoary moth
Its also hard to beat 1 mana dorks too which sucks and my two mana doeks scale pretty well so its like a toss up between consistency and power
deft belfry
i mean, if all your lands are [[dyrad arbor]] that can die to pings
shrewd zealotBOT
deft belfry
would you still play all of them
so 1 drop man dork is either an aggressive game plan/ low curve or just
supplementary mana source
once you have enough mana, and they get big enough, they are additional attackers/blockers
people often cut/drop land count to the extreme low end because getting flooded feels awful
but decreasing the chance of topdecking lands both end up getting more gas and less mana to play the big stuff
i somewhat get away with many [[thran dynamo]] 1 card = multiple mana sort of ramp in my own decks

its that .... dichotomy? of the deck is either having too many cards that you can get the one you want or 99 is too restrictive and there are no room for more unique fan janks
i think Cedh and B4 are kinda the example where the card pool becomes restrictive enough where there are just no lee way for weaker/high cost cards
have you chat with "pastlebox" when it comes to zombies/combo. he know all the ins and outs for zombie tribal

@frank bolt adding you to my thread* π [[ashaya wild]] is probably the green card i mentioned the most. Consider your commander basically turns all your creature cards into a landfall, Ashaya is going to be the redundancy and machine gunning out more lands
shrewd zealotBOT
deft belfry
it also somewhat overlaps + synergy with mirari's awake due to having more lands to tap for mana
frank bolt
wow thats great. just to be sure: creature spells enter as forests so they trigger landfall of other cards, right?
So basically Ashaya and Karametra on the battlefield makes that when any creature is cast a land is fetched ->landfall and when the creature enters as forest creature->another landfall.
And ashaya will be huge. [[badgermole cub]] also works well with it similarly to miraris wake.

@full murali saw your Master Multiplied deck, as long as you can ramp out the 6 cmc commander; not have to recast and not get hit by a boardwipe, it is usually a decent win con on its own. So it is nice to have a backup plan that doesnt rely on having commander out in the 99. I would cut [[Cyberman Sqyadron]] because there are hardly any non legend artifact creatures in the deck 7 is overcosted in here.

once you finalize the cards in the deck, readjust the mana sources so there are more red than black instead of the other way around

cant help that one too much, because i need a direction or else i have to overhaul the entire thing
good luck with it
jaunty cipher
Im making a b3 Avatar Aang deck, and trying to only include cards from TLA/TLE (lands not included).
The biggest thing Im trying to balance is the 4 bending types.
Anyone with experience playing the bending mechanics have any suggestions (too much/little of one type, missing powerful bending cards, etc)?
deft belfry
lot of things going on, curve has many 4 drops and lot of small value cards with little to no synergy
i think the overall cost can be WAY higher
depends on your goal, it is a very pricey deck to put together
can be more functional at like half its price tag
jaunty cipher
Yea, Im still very much in the early phase, trying to figure out a gameplan. The deck seems to be stuck between wanting to go more Aang voltron and an ally typal deck. I am so torn on which way to go. I want to lean voltron, but I need allies for bending
The price tag is high because 1) Atla just released 2) all the prints are premium and 3) the mana base.
Im still a ways away from ordering cards, full theorycrafting atm π
I will probably cut cards like Wan Shi Tong, who is less valuable in b3 than in higher brackets. I have also been resisting pulling cards from outside of TLA/TLE, but I think ive reached a breaking point there
deft belfry
Anag is partly 5c so that player can put in all the avatar cards in a single deck, but since many of them dont have synergy, they dont really do anything with bending
to start with the obvious, even tho it has black, technically you dont need black mana to do anything in the deck, if you cut out that colour it would give more room to work with and avoid dead cards like [[heartless act]]
shrewd zealotBOT
deft belfry
[[sokka tenacious tactician]] and few others doesnt have bending of any kind of them
shrewd zealotBOT

and since it is creature heavy, non creature dont have a good balance atm

That one too. I think im leaning to a more voltron build, but its time to pull from outside the set. it needs real artifacts
deft belfry
hmm, i think ATLA does have enough cards, it s much easier from outside the side
because all those "free" spells that say commander on them, are much more conditional when your commander is harder to play
[[flawless manever]] [[deadly rolick]] [[obsuring haze]]
deft belfry
i wouldnt put all of those in a single deck unless thats my theme
jaunty cipher
voltron?
deft belfry
its okay to add other fire bending cards since anag still draws off those
i dont think you have set a direction just yet
jaunty cipher
I want to try voltron so see what it looks like, im stripping cards
deft belfry
a 4 cost 4/4 flyer isnt exactly a good candidate for voltron
jaunty cipher
ah
jaunty cipher
so you think a go-wide ally deck?
deft belfry
i would do card advantage mid-range
[[niv mizzet reborn]] is probably one of my favourite 5c commander. itself is an engine so it basically "draws" me a new hand
shrewd zealotBOT
jaunty cipher
So draw engine to overwhelm the board?
deft belfry
anag is drawing you lot of cards as long as you are consistent bending once he is out
because other than firebending,and maybe earth bending, the other two arent "forced" to happen, as you have the option to hold them for the right moment
anag is the draw engine itself
jaunty cipher
Right, but in terms of win-cons
deft belfry
[[toph the first metal bender]] not a bad card, just that there arent as many artifact like you said
shrewd zealotBOT
Legendary Creature β Human Warrior Ally
Nontoken artifacts you control are lands in addition to their other types. (They don't gain the ability to for mana.)
At the beginning of your end step, earthbend 2. (Target land you control becomes a 0/0 creature with haste that's still a land. Put two +1/+1 counters on it. When it dies or is exiled, return it to the battlefield tapped.)
3/3
deft belfry
if you flip anag and start casting 5 mana spells for free
i think it shouldnt be hard to win
earth bending has lot of combat related abilities so a big land will hit hard
firebending cards that are available but not in the deck also do lot of damage in general; red doing red things
if you want to do tokens go wide, that fine to but it is another direction
token makes waterbending much easier regardless of its cost

that was my thought, but artifacts can do that as well

that is true. maybe a ally deck is the better option
deft belfry
[[sokka's charge]] this is basically [[true conviction]] with reducted cost

even if you nearly tap yourself out, the life gain can often keep you in the safe spot
having a board of allies before those win con comes out would be the key if you want to focus around allies

Here's my newly upgraded Scarab God deck. I know you already looked at it some time ago but I've made changes and I actually think it's pretty much finished. While playing it I really hope to hit a combo but I don't need to regulary win early turns π
Sac outlets: [[Warren Soultrader]] and Fallen Ideal. Warren Soultrader has an upside with the treasure token it creates but [[Fallen Ideal]] might be a good finisher if the combo can't finish a player itself but doesn't produce any mana or treasure on sacrificing.
Repeatable reanimation: [[Liliana, Untouched by death]] - free recasts, [[Havengul lich]] - needs +1 mana to cast from the grave.
Sac Targets: Obviously the MVP here is [[Gravecrawler]] which lets recast itself on it's own if sacrificed to WS. [[Shambling ghast]] can wipe the board with -1/-1s but needs to be sacrificed to WS or needs [[Rooftop Storm]] to be recast again for free OR [[Roaming throne]] to create two treasure tokens instead of one. Another one to clear board is [[Accursed Marauder]], Gary, [[Sidisi, Undead Vizier]] to tutor whatever you want, [[Cryptbreaker]] - 1 mana to cast.
Combo beneficiaries:
- Drain - Diregraf Captain, Bontu's monument, Gary
- Token generation - Headless Rider, Wilhelt
- Wipe - Shambling Ghast, Noxious Ghoul, Accursed Marauder
- Finisher - Feral Ghoul - possible infinite number of rad counters, Fallen Ideal - flying finisher
Another combo on it's own is Duskmantle Guidlmage + Mindcrank

but before i get off track
starting with the meme version, prehaps 16 is too low for the same name mechanic to work properly
the lands and spell focus should be fine but other than casting spells and sometimes mill, theres not much synergy.
ideally the deck does what it needs to do without relying on the commander
if SAH at 3 mana cost is the barely acceptable range, having to cast a creature for 2 more mana makes it an overcosted 5 mana spell
so imo, a self mill deck need a mechanic that is allowing that directly turn into some form of value [[treasure cruise]] delve or much stronger synergy with sorcery/spellslinger and creatures
