#Ms. Bumbleflower: Communal Brewing
1 messages · Page 9 of 1
$100 is usually a good middle ground
Nice, I'll try to make decks there
Between super budget and not budget at all
I feel like all my decks end up approaching about £450
Tbh I’d start with the precom and edit from there
Half of which is the mana base
Yeah the precon isn't too bad ootb
Me looking at my $1400 bumbleflower list… 😅
xD
OG duals eat like half that budget
They aren’t actually included
I go budgetless but in reality no cards over £100
Mine is mostly labor costs
The website defaults to the magic online promos which don’t have a price
I also don’t have real duals because ew
Dang
So that works out
My "target" bumbleflower is like 500 eur but that's because I've intentionally not put in lots of free Counterspell
Which would make it stronger
Also it's a go wide build and I have no clue if that works
Mine is currently ~$200 going by tcgplayer prices
Deckbuilding to a budget might be a fun exercise
But like... I don't think I would ever play a deck like that?
There's really little difference besides the staples
It feels bad to be playing suboptimal cards just for the arbitrary deckbuilding limit
Many times, you can find a cheaper approximation to an expensive card
Commander isn't about running the best thing at all times anywho
"best"
Of course. But playing a tapped land (for budget reasons) because I chose not to put in an untapped land feels wrong to me
I would rather have fewer decks than more decks which are hindered by budget
I only really have two decks built which aren't upgraded precons, and they don't run any tapped lands except for surveils because they're fetchable and surveil is strong
Working on full foiling your Bunny list?
Yep! I made some progress the other day when I double sleeved my bumble deck and picked up cards but I really need to order the cheap cards online
That's awesome, I actually just finished full foiling mine out recently thanks to my partner
The pièce de résistance
DAAAAAANG
Jealous
Shit, man, I might see if I can't trade up into one
If I can snag one at MagicCon I absolutely will
It's a very nice card, but I wouldn't encourage spending 300 on it
Right, no shot am I spending [[$bumbleflower]]
$1.19 • €0.99 • 1.23 TIX
$479.65 • 0.20 TIX
wheeze
Oh yeah she's gone up
My partner helped me cop her 6 months ago off TCGPlayer when she was still in the 300 range
https://moxfield.com/decks/WtAFxP9tKEieKxVM7qc_pQ
What do u guys think? I just played around a bit
What’s the combo?
[[Evolution Witness]]+[[Ms. Bumbleflower]] + 2 0 mana value artifacts
Creature — Elf Shaman Mutant

: Adapt 2. (If this creature has no +1/+1 counters on it, put two +1/+1 counters on it.)
Whenever one or more +1/+1 counters are put on Evolution Witness, return target permanent card from your graveyard to your hand.
She remembers every breakthrough, from the gene's mutation to the new life's propagation.
2/1
[[Rosie Cotton]] + [[Basking Broodscale]]
Creature — Eldrazi Lizard
Devoid (This card has no color.)

: Adapt 1. (If this creature has no +1/+1 counters on it, put a +1/+1 counter on it.)
Whenever one or more +1/+1 counters are put on Basking Broodscale, you may create a 0/1 colorless Eldrazi Spawn creature token with "Sacrifice this creature: Add
."
2/2
I am not sure if those are good combos or even considered combos.. I just think those cards work well together
True
I probably should rename xD
What is a funny idea is that anything that lets you cast a spell infinitely wins you the game since her draw is required
https://moxfield.com/decks/kMILB5nXqke1SGvsGRioMg
I played around with the hippo line
Do you think [[Teferi's Ageless Insight]] is too expensive for bumbling?
Nah, I run it
It’s probably just me but I do not
I'm just addicted to drawing cards
My only problem with Teferi's Ageless Insight is that it immediately turns you into the problem. I find that my Bumble wins often come because I'm largely left alone until it's too late.
Same - or you are able to land a one sided board wipe to really tip the scales
I try to stay true to the group hug philosophy, so there are no board wipes in my deck - just targeted removal for whoever is the biggest problem.
Black Vise and similar pain on draw effects are really the only cards that make people openly hostile to me.
When I have the time, I'm excited to go through this thread and see what people like to do! I love me some Bumble and group hug.
Heck yeah - I wouldn’t dig too deep, though, we’re nearly 8,000 messages in now lol
Holy crap we did surpass 8k
lol
We are now blazing a trail to beat the general deckbuilding thread
We need a pinned message with every user's decklist link lol
My problem is that you can’t see pinned messages in threads on mobile
It’s weird
But eh
Oh, weird
Oh! You can apparently! It’s in the settings option (that I’m not sure you can see)
Heck yeah
So weord they don't put pinned messages right there next to settings lol
So feel free to post your decklists and I’ll pin them
https://archidekt.com/decks/8498400/bumbleflower (Currently experimenting with some mill pieces)
Mine ^
I've decided to make a big proxy order. My idea is to buy proxies of all the staples which I can't afford to buy like 5 copies of just because they go in every x colour deck... so now I can actually make my bumbleflower!
Also, fun news - I am hunting for a raised foil bumble at MagicCon
Good luck
I did that long ago, it’s worked out well
I will not be getting it if I can’t trade down to only having to pay $100
If I don’t get one I don’t, which is fine
I have like 5 bumbleflower deck lists open in my browser at all times, I just have to figure out who is who...
Lmao
How does that work
Like finding someone who has it and you have stuff they really want enough to ignore the ~$300 difference?
I've not been much of a trader
I’d also hope they trade for value, but yeah. ~$380 of trades + $100 cash
My worry is the slippery slope of just ending up being a big proxy king
Oh right yeah that makes sense
I would absolutely do that deal, I have... $5k of cards I dont play with
But actually trading is hard for me
Sad thing is that isnt including everything bought in the last month becuase I got lazy with scanning
I think if I can put together a bumble list I really love and it becomes my favourite deck
I'll maybe sell all my weird high value stuff (foil future sight stuff etc.) that I dont even play with and buy the bumble
Do you have a list? I'm putting one together on moxfield but always good to get ideas
I'm thinking, staples which will go in every deck (landbase, ramp etc), high value cards which will likely go in a couple of decks (burgeoning etc)
but not gonna proxy cards where I likely only ever need one for a very specific deck
My plan is to own at least one of each of the cards I proxy
So I can, in a pinch, make the deck real
Ty this is dope
It might’ve broken in the transfer between Google sheets and an excel file, but it also had a pivot table that helped auto create the list of staples you need
Yeah I might also just throw in the og duals because... why not, it's gonna be abulk order 😄
so you can copy paste into whatever proxy creator you want
What did you use
I'll probably just make a moxfield deck for my list
Wow your quantities are... high
I've only got two proxies, and only two paper decks so far, but imagine once I'm free of the burden of manabases I can suddenly build whatever I like
I typically bought 10 of each so I had backups + extras to give to friends
As for the lands I needed them far more often
Considering leaning into how powerful she is and just adding Aluren
Aluren would be very funny
Just draw everyone out
Also enables potential win combos
Take that, constant mists
I’d rather win with my large rabbit, but if not…
[[Aluren]]
Fun with [[whitemane lion]]
as long as your opponents have no interaction that you can’t handle you just deck them all
Updated my list! I added back Selvala cause I got the secret lair and idk she just is super pretty. Also added a bunch of counter doublers and Sab-Sunen. I figured if Sab-Sunen is played into a counter doubler, she is going to stay even most likely and will just grow ridiculously fast.
Feel free to pin 🙂
[[dismiss into dream]] looks cool but too expensive
So expensive, but pretty sweet actually
Excited to play my updated bumbleflower tomorrow. I think it will feel alot better
Pog, good luck
Bumblers I won with [[teferi temporal pilgrim]] today by ulting him twice
Legendary Planeswalker — Teferi
Whenever you draw a card, put a loyalty counter on Teferi.
0: Draw a card.
−2: Create a 2/2 blue Spirit creature token with vigilance and "Whenever you draw a card, put a +1/+1 counter on this token."
−12: Target opponent chooses a permanent they control and returns it to its owner's hand. Then they shuffle each nonland permanent they control into its owner's library.
Loyalty: 4
It was glorious
Card is a one card toolbox for bumble
Makes a fucking huge guy, draws cards and eventually just resets someone’s board
Oooooo I’ll add him to my wishlist
I’ve had him in there for a while
Planeswalkers in conjunction with [[dreamtide whale]] just means you’re winning the game
Creature — Whale
Vanishing 2 (This creature enters with two time counters on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter from it. When the last is removed, sacrifice it.)
Whenever a player casts their second spell each turn, proliferate. (Choose any number of permanents and/or players, then give each another counter of each kind already there.)
7/5
Oh that makes sense cause proliferate works with the planeswalker counters! Maybe I’ll add back evolution sage when I add him. I removed alot of my proliferate cause I felt it wasn’t doing a ton for me
But I also wasn’t running any planeswalkers at the time
Yea it was on the chopping block for me
I felt counter doublers > proliferate idk why
Yeah. I’m a big fan of [[ozolith shattered spire]]
Got that in there 🙂
It kinda does it all in one package if you need it
Also [[hardened scales]] and [[conclave mentor]]
That + hardened scales + vorinclex + innkeeper’s talent + conclave mentor means I pretty consistently get at least one
Don’t have vorinclex but I’ll also add him to the wishlist!
[[pir, imaginative]] is real nice for planeswalkers too
Legendary Creature — Human
Partner with Toothy, Imaginary Friend (When this creature enters, target player may put Toothy into their hand from their library, then shuffle.)
If one or more counters would be put on a permanent your team controls, that many plus one of each of those kinds of counters are put on that permanent instead.
1/1
I haven't yet seen [[radstorm]], but I'm hoping for the day
Yea I saw that card in alot of your guys decks
My frenemy has a Storm (the superhero card and the archetype) deck, so it might be a funny surprise if he plays it.
I’ve been looking so hard for a copy ;-;
Good news though - got about 5 more foils for bumble today!
A lot still - I checked cardkingdom and for the version of each card I want I’d have to drop another, like, $1k on the deck to finish it out
And that’s not even exactly the shiniest version I want
Like the expeditions
Yikes
Yeah, vorinclex alone is $30 for the cheapest version
But I wanna get the step and compleat foil
Yea I just saw vorinclex normal is like $70 🤯
My man got a fucking great henge and I thought that was ridiculous
Some of these cards man are too damn expensive
Oh nice! You know I’ve got two delneys and I have no idea what to do with one let alone 2. We should try to trade some of our more expensive dupes
Yep! That’s the plan.
Delney is so good
I’m stocking the hell out of my trade binder when I go to Chicago to hopefully get a raised foil bumble
Delney would be good for bumble if you never put counters on her
She’d immediately draw 2
Oh you're so right
True but I feel like voltron is where she belongs
Problem with that is i would also want it to trigger my other stuff and i need those to get big too
Like atp I’d rather have Sakashima of a thousand faces or Mockingbird
Yea! Maybe with like Generous Patron you could use your counters for more group hug type stuff
I added [[sab-sunen]]
Nice. Let me know how you like her
Will do! Hoping I draw her!
Also (and let me know if this isn’t allowed) i got this Dr Seuss themes bunny token so hoping I draw tempt with bunnies lmao
Pog
Custom tokens should be no problem. Proxies either as long as it's clear they are custom.
Share a pic, I'm curious what that would even look like lol

Ikr dude!!! Omg I got this super cute saproling one too for my slimefoot and squee deck
I fell in love
I got fogliokens (Phil Foglio's token set) but no bunnies 😔
Awww well would recommend they came pretty high quality!
Nice. I'll consider them if I have a token I end up using a lot
I guess I use plants and beasts in my landfall deck, but my other token deck is [[volo, guide to monsters]] and those tokens are a little unique lol.
Legendary Creature — Human Wizard
Whenever you cast a creature spell that doesn't share a creature type with a creature you control or a creature card in your graveyard, copy that spell. (A copy of a creature spell becomes a token.)
"The beholder told me I had a good eye for details. Who was I to argue?"
3/2
Same
Haven’t drawn her yet but bumble’s ability to control the counters on sab sunen means you get the best of both worlds constantly
Yea! And I was thinking even with a counter doubler, she stays even and just grows super fast
That part I don’t like, actually
But tbh it’s a worthwhile downside
Gets huge, if you can keep it even
If not it’s a good draw engine but it’s not grest atp
Just sac it to [[disciple of freyalise]]
Creature — Elf Druid
When this creature enters, you may sacrifice another creature. If you do, you gain X life and draw X cards, where X is that creature's power.
"Freyalise is gone, but her song lives on."
3/3
Garden of Freyalise
Land
As this land enters, you may pay 3 life. If you don't, it enters tapped.
: Add
.
The Juniper Order safeguards secret places that still thrum with traces of Freyalise's life-giving magic.
True
Do you have any idea how freaking hard it is to find that in foil?!!
There is not one in my entire city it seems
MH3 was such a popular set, I would've figured they'd be all over the place
I have not been able to find it despite the foil being the same price


It's so worth it
It really is
You guys all talking about bumble is making me want to build mine more bah
But it's so expensive
And proxies will take weeks to arrive if I order now
I love Delney, I have 3.
I'm thinking about buying some og duals or trading for them if I ever see someone trading... but my problem is my trade binder is so widely varied that it's unlikely anyone would want the mishmash of card in there, even at considerably over value
It's interesting seeing how everyone builds their deck. I moved away from the counter enablers entirely, and have gone full group hug cards / payoffs, with the goal being alt-win cons. I know someone who went full poison counters with it.
I think Bumble can be an exceptionally mean commander, but I've chosen to stay full group hug. And it wins at an absurd rate. I'll have to get my decklist updated and up here.
This is why I love bumbleflower. It's a super versatile deck and I just love the flavour
Hey guys, I got my hand on the precon, so I'm switching plans from building a bumbleflower deck to upgrading one first. I know there are many ways to go from here. Which one would you recommend?
Whichever one speaks to you! There’s tons of ways to build her
What’s something you like to do?
You can use her "Give +1 and Flying" to be super aggressive, or you can use her card-giving to manipulate the table and profit from it in the long run. Or anything in between! Lots of ways to have fun! Just do what speaks to you!
Ill probably play it out of the box for a bit to get a feeling for the group hug/ politics behind it and ill decide after that 🙂 So looking forward to play the bunny 🙂
https://moxfield.com/decks/B8zzpDQtNkGBPXpSWrXH8w
hey y’all, I brought my super-gross-so-doesn’t-exist-anymore list back down to a reasonable position for people to view as not-cedh (CURRENT LIST)
It’s still a bracket 4 but it also drops the most recently banned cards and fast mana and adds in some more fun stuff
I’m not going back to this list but I figured it’d be helpful to those who wanna abuse the cards she gives away to the max
So to our newest several bumblers, @clear aspen, @wicked cove, @modest lion, and @tall blaze: have you gotten a deck together and gotten games in? If so, how has she played for you? If not, is there anything past actually getting the cardboard together (ex. $, time, etc) that’s keeping you from doing it?
I've been running Bumble since she came out. I had started playing not long before Bloomburrow, so I was really excited at the idea of a group hug deck, as it was new to me. Since then, I've run Bumble probably more than any other deck, and it wins at like a 90% rate.
Being able to manipulate the board via card draw on any turn, play genuine group hug cards that keep me from drawing hate from the table, and letting my board state build have all turned out well for me.
Lastly, I try to win via alt win cons (Triskaidekaphile, Toed Toad, etc) when possible, but having the board state I do by the end of the game helps me win with combat if necessary.
(90% rate probably means the need to re-evaluate what PL it can play at fwiw)
I'm new to the forum, but not new to Bumble. I just run her more kindly than most, I think. Mine is very mid-power, meant to be run in pods that are better than precon level, but aren't necessarily "Win by turn 7 or you lose".
Yeah, I've thought about that. I have wondered whether I'm playing it against lower power tables, but I try really hard to make sure it's run appropriately. 90% is an exaggeration, but it definitely wins more often than I'd have guessed.
I'll look closer at that for future tables, but I've only got four decks, so sometimes it's the default choice if we're in the mid-power range. That might be part of the problem.
Another consideration is that bumble is kind of volatile with board states
Very seldom does she get down and dirty and scrap the table, usually you’re either rolled because you gave away too many cards or you roll the table because you can stop the card advantage you give from being useful
But she 100% plays higher power than you’d expect
Still waiting on the precon. And I might play her some as is before upgrading in any direction 🙂
Heck yeah, I’m excited for you homie!
The precon, like others, has a dozen or so useless cards, but it's still pretty good.
I wouldn’t call them “useless” so much as “not a good fit for bumble”
Well okay, fair. Insofar as no card is really useless.
Although it does make me wonder if anyone is using that poison squirrel treasure guy
tbf I have no clue what those cards are yet or which direction I could go with bumble
Oh
I forgot that was in the bumble precon
Tf
Nah you’re right Levi that card sucked
Top decks for it on edhrec are bumble, just because it came in the precon lol
And people are running it in squirrel tribal (???)
I have edited my deck a ton and probably played 10 games with her. I really struggled with lethality until I switch to really focusing on counters. Originally I focused on draw abilities and I found I had alot of trouble getting the necessary lethality for my lgs and especially against my boyfriend Ygra eater of all artifact deck, i just couldn’t scale enough without counter doublers and the like.
I swear, tribal players just see the type line
Oh actually, it might go pretty well in a [[kibo, uktabi prince]] deck
Legendary Creature — Monkey Noble
: Each player creates a colorless artifact token named Banana with "
, Sacrifice this token: Add
or
. You gain 2 life."
Whenever an artifact an opponent controls is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control that's an Ape or a Monkey.
Whenever Kibo attacks, defending player sacrifices an artifact of their choice.
2/2
Hardened scales effects are so useful in bumbleflower
They literally just double the effectivity of her counters
Mhm!! Loving it so far! I literally have 4 counter doublers in her haha
I just destroyed my friends in a game online making bumble a super scary threat
I thought about going big bunny with her, but I build another go tall deck and got told, that i will not work at all..so I am scared trying that strategy again
^ Agreed with this. Doubling 1 isn't very huge either.
And also have other stuff attached like lae’zel, kami of whispered hopes, etc
Innkeeper's talent is great though. Partially because you can upgrade it in steps, and each step does something amazing.
💰 though
Yea I have a bunch of cards from several of your guy’s list that are a little higher in price that I definitely want to upgrade into though
For no good reason ;-;
It was used in standard for a decent while
With the Vraska PW that gives poison counters
Since you can play her and immediately poison your opponent for 12
Oh it was 18. [[vraska, betrayal's sting]]
Legendary Planeswalker — Vraska
Compleated (
can be paid with
or 2 life. If life was paid, this planeswalker enters with two fewer loyalty counters.)
0: You draw a card and you lose 1 life. Proliferate.
−2: Target creature becomes a Treasure artifact with "
, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color" and loses all other card types and abilities.
−9: If target player has fewer than nine poison counters, they get a number of poison counters equal to the difference.
Loyalty: 6
I'm held back by the fact that ab unch of the cards need are in my zimone deck
This list isn't 100% accurate (the give away is that it has 101 cards), but it's very close. I have a couple changes I want to make to upgrade my ramp, as well as another hug instant or two.
It's still in the "early draft" phase for me, which means I haven't optimized ramp and removal - just trying to focus on synergies and find out what cards perform best - but as a group hug deck, I don't think I'm going to play a whole lot more strict removal. It'll still be stuff like Invigorate, which I can use to swing a fight in someone else's favor, hence pseudo-removal sticking to the group hug intent.
One sided wipes would be extremely beneficial to bumble. Or at least a lot of protection.
Any way to offset a board wipe in your favor is best
For sure! You could use a [[damning verdict]]
I also orinally had scrawling crawler and psychosis crawler in there and scrawling crawler was great but psychosis crawler I never thought I got much out of. Ending up cutting them both cause I went with counters instead
Has anyone messed with windfall much?
Ooh me
I feel like it’d go really hard in a mill shell
How is it?
I have a deck out plan as a backup, and I quite like it.
I do own a ton of mill cards, I should make a millflower
Me too!
Levi actually I think recommeneded it to me
I also run [[tolarian winds]] to help deck myself lmao
I just have the spark jace as a backup for a real long game
Could go hard with [[Sphinx's tutelage]]
Or [[psychic corrosion]]
Actually, millflower here I come.
Very smart. I've leaned away from the counters, and I think I get enough from those two cards to make them worth it, but we'll see - both have gotten limited use.
They're usually a way for me to close the game out late when people are already whittled down. Both Crawlers + Black Vise can kill someone in one turn late in the game, if they're low and I need to win a 1v1.
Ooo black vise seems good!
Black Vise is one of my favorite includes. It flips the group hug dynamic immediately on its head, so I only play it on someone if they're clearly the problem, or if it's late game and I know I'll need to win a fight (if alt-win cons aren't an option).
Both Crawlers + Black Vise + Psychic Possession + a handful of cheap casts to maximize what someone is drawing = a very damaging turn.
I am going to spend so much on ff cards. It’s going to be bad
Big same. Just reading the article now. Very excited.
Sleepy hath returned???
Whaddup dawg!
Yeah Tidus is going in for sure
It’s a slam dunk in the deck
Ahoy
Actually got a commander game in last night woo! Not with Bumbleflower though , played some Magar 🤣
Hey, still glad you got to jam, good to see ya back in the saddle
Y’know something else I’m excited for with Tidus?
It also means the 99 is going to be counter shenanigans
We’re gonna get some sweet new cards for bumble this go round
Buckle up!
I hope there are cool precons. I want one that I don't upgrade.
I'm keeping an unmodified bumbleflower around as one of my precon level decks for when I need one
Once I do my box proxy order (still need to finalise my card list) I'm going to finally build my real bumbleflower
I have been telling myself for about six months now, "Once I finalize that list, I'll be able to build out the decks I want". Still haven't done it. We can finish this mission together, friend.
https://moxfield.com/decks/IcRftPSZ202sMEiTE32nKQ this is mine so far
question for anyone who plays TTS: how do I remove/search cards from exile?
Should be an exile pile you’ve made, right click there should be a search option
Hey I was told to come here to link and learn potential upgrades to my bumbleflower deck! Honestly this is my favorite deck and would like to make it stronger but also keep it fun
Welcome!
Helloooo, nice to see I am with people with similiar interest lol
Feel free to look at the pinned messages for a bunch of decks to take inspiration from!
I took a look at yours and it looks so cool! I love the unique cards that I haven’t thought of and I will consider
I especially like the flavor/theme of the cards too. I sort of lost my way in that regards and definitely want to fix that
https://archidekt.com/decks/8356667/counter_blessings
I suppose I'll throw my list here too
waht does maybe board mean?
Also I really like your deck. It is super different than mine and seems much more stronger than mine in the sense of a stronger board pressence
I do wish I had an esper sential
Cards that will maybe go in your deck
A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON
(Welcome fellow bumbler!)
Gotcha I didn’t know that
Thank you lol, I love improving my deck especially this one
Make sure to check out the pinned messages to see the everyone else’s lists
I have looked at a few peoples list already. I definitely feel out knowledged lol but it’s all good. I love the many ways you can play the deck
Absolutely! It’s why we have such a fervent following of people haha
A bunch of bumbling buffoons
the first time I ever got this deck is actually all by luck too.
I assumed that this was the only deck on the shelf at walmart and after purchasing it, i realized there was another one, but at that point, i was like whatever, a cute bunny deck is okay
You are right, it was fate. no complaints from me
Half my decks are cause they are cute no judgement here
I bought my first ever deck and the exact same day like 30 minutes later, I bought bumbleflower so my friend and I could 1v1. I will not lie, I had a bias and didnt think this deck wouldnt hold up compared to the other deck. But this deck is way more fun for sure
finally gettring around to pinning my deck. My group hasn't been playing as much lately so I haven't gotten a bumble game in, in almost 2 months 😦
+1/+1 Bumble
I think someone else needs to pin it for me
Yeah, Umaru will get around to it. Only those with permission can pin.
Gottem
Does anyone else’s play group consider your bumble deck a fake group hug deck?
I never purport my bumbleflower to be group hug.
In fact I usually (jokingly) say that bumbleflower gives away cards so people can keep up with her
I dont consider mine group hug
I only really give out cards using her. Everything else only benefits me 😅
I also noticed I run a lot more lands than most of the other pinned decks. I think I ave 38 lands and like 2-4 MDFCs
I run 36 lands inclusive of mdfcs
Nope, usually it’s fine
Gameplay loop wants to get bumble out ASAP, then start double spelling every turn, so if I have that I’m good to go
Bumble's card draw is enough where you really have no issues finding lands
In agreement with the others, bumble isn't really a group hug commander by necessity. Although you could build her as one. Targeted card draw is far more powerful than group hug that helps everyone at the table.
The reason I didn't go the group hug route is because that usually takes you down the alt wincon path, and I dont have a ton of fun with those
Bumble can be built as a Group Hug deck, but most people tend to build her without that in mind at all. You'll see a lot more mean Bumble decks than hug ones.
I built mine along the pure hug route, as much as possible. You're looking for alt win cons or late game board states that are just too big to deal with.
Funny enough, even though I had 30-ish cards that could benefit someone other than me at the time, I had people complaining at me that it wasn't group hug enough. Some people just like to complain.
I think the best part of my deck when I can pull it off, is to help everyone draw their cards (group hug). I like it when they draw their cards and then have to discard them all at the end 😂.
But I do like how many different avenues she can go down and be played as
May I suggest [[forced fruition]] then?
I'm slowly but surely brewing a mill bumbleflower
Hey Guys 🫡
I'm new on the channel and have read a lot about Ms. Bumbleflower here and how you could build her which are a lot of different routes.
I have searched long now for a new Commander Deck but can't find any strong and fun ones to play but here. GOSH this commander seems to have a lot of potential.
So my question is .. from the Decklists here posted what would you guys say is the "best" Strongest one for a Commander Bracket 3 kind of playgroup? 🙂
Let's bumble 😄
I don't think I'd say there's one "best" way to build her.
Yea I just think they are all different. i think alot of us are going more voltron with her but it’s a pretty diverse commander that you can take many different ways
It’s whatever speaks to you!
Yeah I flew over a lot of Decklists so far and they are really all different.
But since I don't want to combo or play stax I think the best route for me maybe is just +1/+1 counters since my playgroup mostly plays combat based Decks .
Any recommendations for some unique "must play" cards for this commander overall?
I really like [[generous patron]]
Stuff like [[freestrider lookout]] is pretty staple-y
Creature — Human Rogue
Reach
Whenever you commit a crime, look at the top five cards of your library. You may put a land card from among them onto the battlefield tapped. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. This ability triggers only once each turn. (Targeting opponents, anything they control, and/or cards in their graveyards is a crime.)
3/3
[[kros defense contractor]] has put in a ton of work for me too
Legendary Creature — Cat Advisor
At the beginning of your upkeep, put a shield counter on target creature an opponent controls.
Whenever you put one or more counters on a creature you don't control, tap that creature and goad it. It gains trample until your next turn. (Until your next turn, that creature attacks each combat if able and attacks a player other than you if able.)
2/4
Yeah, Kros is cool. I cut him, and the whole goad package, but he's neat.
My favorite card as of late is [[duelist's heritage]]
Okay nice I think I will carefully brew one for my self and maybe get some advice afterwards that's easier I think.
I really do like to put just "good stuff cards" randomly into decks haha like [[Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath]] but not sure if it's fitting or [[Subtlety]] as a free spell maybe?
I will see what I can cook and back again with some Flowers 🙂
Legendary Creature — Elder Giant
When Uro enters, sacrifice it unless it escaped.
Whenever Uro enters or attacks, you gain 3 life and draw a card, then you may put a land card from your hand onto the battlefield.
Escape—


, Exile five other cards from your graveyard. (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its escape cost.)
6/6
I mean, those both could fit
I usually value synergy pieces over just good cards, but those could both work in whatever deck you're making
Free spells go hard with bumble
Trust lol that’s already in the deck😅, I haven’t been able to played that card though yet
I still need to [[fractured identity]] it
Has anyone ever been able to pull Tamiyos Ult before?
For the ones that do run it
Yes. Game is over when it happens 99.999% of the time
Usually get it with [[innkeeper's talent]] doubling I assume
Enchantment — Class
(Gain the next level as a sorcery to add its ability.)
At the beginning of combat on your turn, put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you control.
: Level 2
Permanents you control with counters on them have ward
.

: Level 3
If you would put one or more counters on a permanent or player, put twice that many of each of those kinds of counters on that permanent or player instead.
I just got mail and wondered what the Bumbleflower Mains think about this card [[Brightglass Gearhulk]] ?
Artifact Creature — Construct
First strike, trample
When this creature enters, you may search your library for up to two artifact, creature, and/or enchantment cards with mana value 1 or less, reveal them, put them into your hand, then shuffle.
"A new day dawns for Avishkar, and we shall draw our power from its light."
4/4
99% of the time it’s dreamtide whale
If you’ve got particular cards you’re wanting to tutor for it’s great, otherwise it’s fine?
esper and spore frog
Curves well from bumbleflower t3 -> brightglass t4 -> cast 1 drop you tutored for
I’m just trying to think of what all you could get
Also grabs hardened scales
And also would get exploration and mystic remora, hardended scales and what about walking balista would this work too?
I just looked up Dreamtide whale and that’s actually super cool
Do you know hypothetically if I was able to move one of the time counters onto another creature, would they be sac when it got removed or is that not how that works
Yeah, dreamtide is another staple
Not how that works
Vanishing is the thing that removes counters and also sacrifices the thing
Where is the room for it though?
What about the upcoming Commander unbans ?
Could this be unbanned for todays current powerlevel 😮
[[Prophet of Kruphix]]
Creature — Human Wizard
Untap all creatures and lands you control during each other player's untap step.
You may cast creature spells as though they had flash.
"Time is fluid as a dance, and truth as fleeting."
2/3
I hope they don’t ban sol ring I just got the future sight of it lol
Sol ring is so bad for casual commander
There's a lightyear's difference between having it early and not.
Did someone here already tested or consider [[Submerge]]?
Just found it while going through bulk and also found a [[Carpet of Flowers]] and a [[Seedborn Muse]] and a [[Hadana's Climb]]
Legendary Enchantment
At the beginning of combat on your turn, put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you control. Then if that creature has three or more +1/+1 counters on it, transform Hadana's Climb.
Hadana seeks power in the service of peace.
Winged Temple of Orazca
Legendary Land
(Transforms from Hadana's Climb.)
: Add one mana of any color.


,
: Target creature you control gains flying and gets +X/+X until end of turn, where X is its power.
seedborn muse is obviously crazy
Submerge is exceptional in almost every pod - someone’s probably running green. And if they’re not, just include [[yavimaya forest]]
It’s honestly one of my fave removal spells
Yeah, it's probably free a majority of the time
So this is my theorycrafted list, never built or played, but I'm gonna start working towards it. Biggest blocker right now is the landbase and some of the pricy land-based cards
eg boseiju
I play [[ravenous rumble]] in my list over any 2 mana ramp spell. Such an underrated card
No card found for “ravenous rumble”
[[malevolent rumble]] sorry i was working on my gitrog ravenous ride deck
Sorcery
Reveal the top four cards of your library. You may put a permanent card from among them into your hand. Put the rest into your graveyard. Create a 0/1 colorless Eldrazi Spawn creature token with "Sacrifice this token: Add
."
What emerged from Turntimber was even more twisted than the forest itself.
That's not ramp though
It seems decent, especially with graveyard synergy, but it's not quite the same as land ramp.
surely not but with a decent land base it still makes me cast bumble on turn 3. Biggest upside is that it's such a better card to draw than fareseek or similar cards after turn 3
How much 2 mana ramp do you run?
I got some possible upgrades to my deck, one of them being hullbreaker horror. What do we think about that
To me it does have good synergy but it cost so much
It is really good, and lets you singlehandedly take control of the game
But the mv is so high, it's hard to double spell with'
That is fair it’s a potential add for sure, might have to see it in a game or two too determine
I run a pretty heavy ramp package so the high cost doesn't spook too badly
Currently brewing on my deck and trying to find some cuts.
What do we think of this card here so our gifts are not completely free?
[[Scrawling Crawler]]
Not a fan - usually those cards put a lot of heat on you, and you also don’t wanna feed them cards that you can’t control
Yeah true and while brewing and looking through other Decks as well I don't understand why everyone runs so much counterspells I understand the goal of this commander to play 2 spells a turn if possible and with that much counterspells don't you end up just gifting cards ?
You would typically follow it up with something else like a draw spell
So you hit that second one
Although casting 2 on everyone’s turn is a pretty specific build that doesn’t play out well imo
So its more a balancing act between if I want to double spell in my turn and get in for combat and protecting my stuff wisely?
I'm brewing one atm but want to go more into the +1/+1 combat build I think but really don't get the Deck so far how its playing out and "winning" 😄
Yeah, basically you’re accruing value, double spelling, and controlling the board until your board state overwhelms the rest of the table
It happens much quicker than you’d think
That’s how I built mine, anyway.
A few big turning points for my deck are:
- landing a hardened scales effect or two
- stopping/protecting from a board wipe
- board wiping (mine are all completely or nearly asymmetrical)
Once I hit 2 of those 3 I’m usually far enough ahead to close out the game
Okay nice then I will have a closer look on your list I guess 🙂
Thanks for the tips (Y)
Does someone know if [[Brightglass Gearhulk]] can find a [[Mockingbird]] don't know about the X Spells how they see their mana value?
Artifact Creature — Construct
First strike, trample
When this creature enters, you may search your library for up to two artifact, creature, and/or enchantment cards with mana value 1 or less, reveal them, put them into your hand, then shuffle.
"A new day dawns for Avishkar, and we shall draw our power from its light."
4/4
Creature — Bird Bard
Flying
You may have this creature enter as a copy of any creature on the battlefield with mana value less than or equal to the amount of mana spent to cast this creature, except it's a Bird in addition to its other types and it has flying.
"Laughing at you? No, no, I'm laughing as you!"
1/1
Yes it can search for mockingbird
Tbh mockingbird is one of those that keeps popping up as “man this is really good”
I’d argue phantasmal image is also good but you can’t give it counters
That would work! Because it put it into your hand, you're fine. if it were to put it right onto the battlefield, then you'd run into issues where X was 0 and thus the effect is reduced.
Okay okay good to know I think I will try it out in my first Bumble Deck 😄
I upgraded my deck, and I cant wait to test it out. I do think that I put some recommendations that yall said and try to apply it. I am interesting in what yall think about this card I added. I think there could be some merit with it but who knows. [[Xolatoyac, the smiling flood]]
Legendary Creature — Salamander Serpent
Whenever Xolatoyac enters or attacks, put a flood counter on target land. That land is an Island in addition to its other types for as long as it has a flood counter on it.
At the beginning of your end step, untap each permanent you control with a counter on it.
6/6
Seems okay as a [[seedborne muse]] at home
wait yeah, yours is just better
It’s really not
Just run [[awakening]] instead

Ish
About half
More resilient as an enchantment too eh
Ohh it does all creatures and lands though
Interesting
It could be a wild game with that and tidal barracuda lmao
I just found this card as well [[Vnwxt, Verbose Host]] early drop and with our flyers we really get the step going fast?
Legendary Creature — Homunculus
Start your engines! (If you have no speed, it starts at 1. It increases once on each of your turns when an opponent loses life. Max speed is 4.)
You have no maximum hand size.
Max speed — If you would draw a card, draw two cards instead.
"Racers! Start! Your! Engiiiiiines!"
0/4
Speed as a whole is too slow of a mechanic in my opinion
If you don’t get it down early,
It likely won’t do anything for you
This weekend I'm gonna put together as much of my bumbleflower as I can
Will be missing some of the ramp but will swap in alts for now
I do worry that by curve is too heavy on the 4s
I played in a 3 man pod today and of the 4 games played, I busted out Ms. Bumble once. Was so close to one shotting the Indominus Rex player but just couldn't get there
Hey there I finally also brewed one and need help I guess 😄
I need 10 more cuts and if someone could look also over the massive Maybeboard would be nice I own all the cards in the link shown so budget is no limit.
My goal is ot make a +1/+1 counter Deck with her and try to get political and steal the win somehow 🙂
Currently my table does not want to make a lot of deals but maybe with this commander I could make it work out somehow.
Here is my Decklist:
https://archidekt.com/decks/11484851/thumble_into_flowers
I don't think I'm a huge narset fan
I don't think I like Ezuri's Predation
It mostly seems fine.
I think I prefer [[dreamtide whale]] over metastatic evangel
Creature — Whale
Vanishing 2 (This creature enters with two time counters on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter from it. When the last is removed, sacrifice it.)
Whenever a player casts their second spell each turn, proliferate. (Choose any number of permanents and/or players, then give each another counter of each kind already there.)
7/5
What do you plan to flash out with leyline of anticipation?
Everything
Having flash on things feels very good.
You do have a very high quantity of instants as it is though
Has anyone tried any of the aetherdrift cards yet? Im going to the cardshop today and wondering if I should snag any
My table doesn't make deals either, so what I do is say, Im going to go around the table in order giving people cards until they do something to slight me and then they wont get any more cards
That way they dont feel like they are making a deal, but they also will give me more leeway because they dont want to stop gettingn cards when everyone else is getting them
I might add ripetide gearhulk to bumble and my [[Zinnia]] deck. The only issue with [[ripetide]] is I dont really have a way to flicker it
Legendary Creature — Bird Bard
Flying
Zinnia gets +X/+0, where X is the number of other creatures you control with base power 1.
Creature spells you cast have offspring
. (You may pay an additional
as you cast a creature spell. If you do, when that creature enters, create a 1/1 token copy of it.)
1/3
No card found for “ripetide”
[[riptide gearhulk]]
It might just be good without flickering tbh
yeah double strike flying is strong
Doublestrike prowess is one hell of a combo.
Its just even better if you can flicker
For sure
The selesnya gearhulk is good too. To fetch up hardened scales and other 1 drops if you have them.
Those really are the only 3 I'd consider from the set. Maybe Aetherspark too, but meh.
I actually only have 1 1 drop lmao
[[brightglass gearhulk]]
Artifact Creature — Construct
First strike, trample
When this creature enters, you may search your library for up to two artifact, creature, and/or enchantment cards with mana value 1 or less, reveal them, put them into your hand, then shuffle.
"A new day dawns for Avishkar, and we shall draw our power from its light."
4/4
I didnt even think of grapping hardened scales
Aetherspark is too expensive for my tastes.
I don't run the stapley cards like esper sentinel, sol ring, shadowspear, etc, so I don't think it'd be too good for me
Yeah, getting two of those would be stronk
My group also cut all of our sol rings, they make the games too swingy
Yeah, sol ring is so bad for casual commander
It peeves me that it has an untouchable status
yeah same. Our games got way better since we cut them
One person shooting ahead randomly because of it definitely makes games feel a lot worse.
It being "just 1 in 99" makes the problem worse, not better. If everyone had 10 fast mana cards, then you'd see them every game, and everyone would be ramping equally.
(I don't like fast mana in general though)
Excuse my daily sol ring rant
Im with you. Its way to random and the power is way to great. If it was more consistant it wouldnt feel so bad
To those with a little more experience regarding the best bunny. I am thinking about playing the deck right out of the box. But if I wanted to make an impactful upgrade with little changes. What should I focus on? My precon is not here, so sadly I cannot test for myself yet.. Any suggestions?
Just found out about Homunculus Horde that card is so funny
Sab sunen crazy good
I was gonna pick that up today! Now im starting to wonder how many 5+ mana drops I can fit because of Sab and the gearhulks lol
add any +1/+1 synergy and cut all the cards that allow your opponents to play extra lands
giveing your opponents extra cards AND extra lands is just a good way to lose the game
I ended up cutting it cause It never really gave me much value. You are welcome to try it though!
Omg this is so true that lady grew to a 24/24 for me with 2 counter doublers out and Ms. Bumbleflower stuck in the command zone! Crazy good.
Good to know, thank you 🙂
Kind of everything but mostly creatures or cheap entchantments I guess but yeah need to make a few cuts anyway. Currently trying to figure out what are the top 5 cards in each category for this deck 🙂
Yeah seems a good approach for me as well 🙂
I've wanted to put the alt-art (lil critters squeezed against the glass) of this in the deck just because I think it's hysterical.
It's not raelly good enough to hang around if you're trying to power the deck up, and doesn't really fulfill a group hug role if you're doing that, but it's a hysterical card.
I think I bumbled a little too hard last night. My table said the bunny is kill on sight now
Oh noo!
Did you actually
He traded in cards for it iirc
Price tag is very real
I’m still shaking a bit
Okay, now set it on fire
Journey’s End games is honestly such a great company, they had a trade in rate on their non hotlist cards of 95-115 tcglow
No u
Okay, come over here big boy
Pretty card though, congrats on the find and the deal
Are you going to keep it in a case of some sort?
Don’t tempt me with a good time dawg
Yeah, gamegenic has a sidekick kinda thing that’s a hardshell
Welcome to the Raised Foil gang my brother
Thanks! I can’t wait to jam with it today
Are all your shocks expeditions? Kinda jealous of that ngl
I’ve been in the raised foil gang with Muerra, but the Bumbleflower was my white whale
Not yet! Just the temple garden, and I also got a misty just now
That's insane, she's really skyrocketed out of nowhere
Yeah, she crept up and up and up from the $300 she started at
She’e likely to just keep going and going too
I remember when a friend of mine sold her on prerelease for what was the equivalent of $150
Probably 120 actually
RIP
How sooooo teach me your ways
Also do you guys know if there are any worth getting cards in the new set coming out (dragon tarkir set?)
There’s sure to be some solid ones. I’m primarily looking for the final fantasy bant precon
I see that’s fair, honestly I can’t wait to see some new cards to add.
Yeah, Tidus might be pretty nice
Could anyoen go through my deck please? I’m thinking of cutting some cards but I do not know which ones seems either redundant or unnecessary. I would like another perspective
Gamers, I am here to remind you to run [[court of garenbrig]]
Enchantment
When this enchantment enters, you become the monarch.
At the beginning of your upkeep, distribute two +1/+1 counters among up to two target creatures. Then if you're the monarch, double the number of +1/+1 counters on each creature you control.
it has single handedly won me so many games, including one today
Right?? I had to trade like half my bulk binder and a few huge hitters out of my big boy binder
Congratulations on the success! What did you trade for it?
I've never traded much as I have no idea how to find people with cards I want... and also historically whenever I've traded away a card, I've later needed it for a deck so I don't even know what to trade away
ok, hear me out
what if
mill politics
making them draw 2 is kinda mill 2
you could loop fog effects to continue alive until they mill out
it would make so you wins take a lot of time though
@pastel agate any thoughts on this?
Yeah we've been discussing mill a little bit off and on
Probably not full mill, but partial
i might use her for a turbo fog deck
I would just like to say that one of the most memorable games I've ever played was an Archenemy game where the Archenemy player had a fog effect 6 times in a row, completely keeping us from hitting them. Every turn was, "He can't have another one, right?".
So, I highly support anyone going full fog with a deck. Especially since it technically fits the group hug dynamic, because it can stop others from being hurt, too.
yeah i think you all convinced me to make a turbo fog deck that has mill as a win con
What's that expensive fog with buyback?
the one that you sacrifice a land?
[[constant mists]]
[[$constant mists]]
0.29 TIX
$10.02 • €6.91
$12.18 • €10.36 • 0.22 TIX
Oh, not that expensive actually
i think the biggest problem is it not being available in foil
[[moment's peace]] is pretty good too
I put a fog in nearly every deck
neat SLD art
yeah i will brew this deck after i'm done brewing the other 3 decks i thought in brew
genuinely one of the best cards for the deck. seriously.
It's so easy to swing a game with Selfless squire and then just casting a spell on your turn w/ bumbleflower out to make it flying
Bumble has a surprisingly low winrate at magic con!
Good threat assessment abound
I also popped off way too early a couple times which led to me being dealt with, in addition to playing against a suuper good [[marvo]] list that would make pontiff proud
Legendary Creature — Octopus Rogue
Whenever Marvo attacks, clash with defending player. (Each clashing player reveals the top card of their library, then puts that card on the top or bottom. A player wins if their card had a higher mana value.)
Whenever you win a clash, draw a card. Then you may cast a spell from your hand with mana value 8 or less without paying its mana cost.
1/8
Clashing seems so pog
[[psychic corrosion]]
[[Rhystic Study]] a card that would be okay in the bunny deck?
No card found for “Rystic Studies”
Rhystic study is a good card in any deck my man.
Yes
Did people just know how to deal with her and kill her early? Or what was the biggest issue you had
I kinda kept not great hands, or I got dealt with with a well timed board wipe after getting too greedy developing my board
Wait this card might have to be added to my deck
I'll convert my deck into a mill deck tonight I think
I kinda want that new frog artifact from aetherdrift though
A mill deck sounds super fun I won’t lie
When do we think we will get a bloomberrow remastered lol. I’m looking forward to it
I worry I might end up just turning bumbleflower into generic simic bs with some white for extra removal
Ramp hard draw hard
Just be careful with mill effects - most people hate milling, even if it's a relatively slow win con, etc. It just draws people's hate, in many pods. I had Psychic Corrosion in my deck just to play around with it and see if that was a route I wanted to go. It drew hate every time - not great when I'm trying to play a "fly under the radar" deck.
So, just play it with intent and know what reaction you might get. No wrong answers.
However, [[!Psychic Possession]] is a blast that doesn't draw hate, in my experience.
Yeah, psychic possession is great
I'm already the archenemy every game, so it's business as usual
That card is already in my deck, I do love it a lot and tend to get a lot of value
And of course, people don’t like milk and I get that might get a negative reaction. I will play it with caution
Mmm milk
Maybe those who hate mill are just lactose intolerant
Very interesting idea, I will test this the next time I play with my group
Mill package assembled
Added these cards to help:
The idea is for the mill to be based off my card draw hopefully. Sun Titan is meant to recur the important 3 mana enchantments for that.
I also already run forced fruition and such though
Nothing wrong with that!
Pretty much what I did at first
Based, lemme know how it goes. Remember to include the mindskinner
Oh cool, you did get it
Also [[teferi’s tutelage]]
Enchantment
When this enchantment enters, draw a card, then discard a card.
Whenever you draw a card, target opponent mills two cards. (They put the top two cards of their library into their graveyard.)
"Tarassel's sixth law of temporal recursion is easy to understand as long as you know the first seven."
you’re still drawing a lot
I’d also recommend running [[thraben charm]] if you’re going the mill route
Oh true, those are both good
I was considering RIP, since I already own a copy
Plus I love wilds of eldraine art [[rest in peace | WOT]]
Yeah I’d slot rip in mill
I think it's really the only place that makes sense
Unless you want to just randomly say fuck you to GY decks
Nah, I’d only run it here
Cultivator colossus is so hot
It just reads as a draw your whole deck
Especially with bouncelands lol
Well, he doesn’t play very nice with the bouncelands
If you have 2, don't you just draw out if you want?
No
Ohh I see
The triggers for the bounce lands don’t go on the stack until the ability fully resolves
Gotcha
Since the ETB is all one thing, then yeah. Nothing happens until you’re done doing it
Woo my second copy of the bloomburrow precons is in
Now I can always have an untouched bumbleflower
For when I play precon games
Back to crafting bumbleflower... trying to get maximum power out of her, probably high bracket 3 or somewhere in bracket 4
But I'm still wondering what the win con is other than just big flying beaters
Or... maybe that's all you need
I think I hate brackets now lol
I'm used to playing a style where I never attack, until the turn I win, where I attack for 300 damage
But I guess bumbleflower should be chipping more with that big flying bunny butt
What do you want to do with bumbleflower?
Give out cards to balance out the game so nobody has a "non game" is the main motivation. Also draw a crapload of cards.
Lab man could be a fun win con but I can't see myself consistently drawing out
IDK, a lot of the time it's not chip damage, but a single bunny butt that hits for the win
Gotta do that 3 times though
It's not extremely difficult to run through drawing out
I want to basically just do simic ramping and drawing loads stuff, and then I guess use the cards and mana to win
No you don't. Just have your opponents kill each other
I struggle with that in Zimone and kind of see the same here but maybe not since bumble has that evasive vigilance
Stuff like [[misleading signpost]] is very good
Honestly my table just scoops before I have to hit them each to kill them
Ill get such a strong board state that they realize they wont be able to interact with it
Lmao I love that
Why can't they interact?
Yeah she's great too
I used to run both, but they were kinda too oppressive, and didn't really fit my plan of drawing half a billion cards
I run both (in my theoretical deck) and expect them to be really annoying
Looking for some trample enablers. Maybe [[Shadowspear]] for when flying just isn't enough?
I've never once felt that trample was needed
You dont need anything except bumbles flying counter
Ive never felt the need for extra invasion
I still run [[rogue's passage]] just in case
The best trample is [[sergeant Benton]]
What do you guys do about hand size limits? Reliquary tower is a given, but there are a couple of others and not sure which to go for
Hmm I should cut lightning greaves. Shroud on bumbleflower kind of defeats the point.
I run reliquary tower, thought vessel, decanter of endless water, proft's eidetic memory
Yeah, I don't run boots
Swiftfoot still seems like a good idea
I am not really a fan of boots
We don't really need haste for anything
espeically in blue decks because Ill just counter anything you throw at her. Plus bumble has green so you ramp so her dying isn't a huge deal
Yeah, my protection exists in phasing out and counterspells
Unwind and rewind my beloveds
Run a control package
It’s easy to kill 3 opponents when they can’t touch you
Discard to hand size, dig for [[evolution witness]]
Creature — Elf Shaman Mutant

: Adapt 2. (If this creature has no +1/+1 counters on it, put two +1/+1 counters on it.)
Whenever one or more +1/+1 counters are put on this creature, return target permanent card from your graveyard to your hand.
She remembers every breakthrough, from the gene's mutation to the new life's propagation.
2/1
I have 19 pieces of removal so far
I'm starting to really love [[Shigeki, Jukai Visionary]]
Legendary Enchantment Creature — Snake Druid

,
, Return Shigeki to its owner's hand: Reveal the top four cards of your library. You may put a land card from among them onto the battlefield tapped. Put the rest into your graveyard.
Channel — 


, Discard this card: Return X target nonlegendary cards from your graveyard to your hand.
1/3
Shigeki is great
I run it in two of my decks
In Zimone it's just an instant win card for me
Mid game getting all the best stuff out of my bin is wild
Creature — Rabbit Mercenary
Vigilance
When this creature enters, if an opponent controls more lands than you, you may search your library for a Plains card and put it onto the battlefield tapped. Then if an opponent controls more lands than you, repeat this process once. If you search your library this way, shuffle.
3/3
Sorry, [[clifftop lookout]]
I never really like shigeki’s non-channel ability
It's kinda like an expensive steve that mills for me - if played on curve
Channeling is definitely what you put it in your deck for, yeah
It's just the modular ability which is nice
I've never used it. I just like it for the hard to interact with recursion and mana dump
True
Legendary Creature — Eldrazi
When you cast this spell, target opponent exiles the top half of their library, rounded up.
Ward—Sacrifice two permanents.
Ulamog enters with a number of +1/+1 counters on it equal to the greatest mana value among cards in exile.
Ulamog has annihilator X, where X is the number of +1/+1 counters on it.
7/7
10 is so steep though
It is cute
I like the idea of shoehorning in eldrazi in non-eldrazi decks
But i have no way of cheating it, so probably a pass

There's no way you could double spell it
The counter synergy is cool though
I need to put [[riverchurn monument]] in
good with the untap walker guy
Oh, it;'s exhaust, so I guess that part doesn't matter
[[deepmuck desparado]] is decent too eh
Creature — Homarid Mercenary
Whenever you commit a crime, each opponent mills three cards. This ability triggers only once each turn. (Targeting opponents, anything they control, and/or cards in their graveyards is a crime.)
"Heard you've been horning in on my turf. How about I introduce you to some surf?"
2/4
I'm feeling like tuning up my list a bit
I probably don't need Evo Witness AND Skullwinder... Also the Second Doctor has kind of been off my radar
I once considered Ulamog and his pals in my Omo deck (I pulled Ulamog from a pack and got excited), but I'm trying to keep it a lower power Maze's End wincon deck. So even though I've got plenty of mana and it's a great use of it, he's a little out of place in my "I might win eventually" deck.
@solemn hamlet I was actually thinking of trying a deck in your style. My group has caught on to my deck so I think its time for a change soon and yours looked fun. Whats your typical win con?
Survive until th 1v1?
Yep, most of the time. My build is a very defensive playstyle. Since it's wincon is very open-ended, its success kind of relies on moves your opponents make. Stuff like [[Reins of Power]] can end the game on the spot, though.
You've gotta really slap people hard when they try to interact with your stuff, and encourage them to look elsewhere. That can be tough if you don't have a politically inclined table, though.
Sorry if that doesn't exactly answer your question. But it really does rely on what the other players at the table are bringing imo.
That should be used when they’re at 50% of their library
Yeah for sure. But it also has some anti synergy with graveyard hate
Second doctor is uncontrolled group hug and I’ve been off that a minute
SLEEPY
DID YOU SEE I GOT THE RAISED FOIL
Dunno why it’s upside down but whatevs
I am still v excited
Damn those are pretty
It’s so much prettier in person
Yes... PEAK!
Yeah Forgotten ancient is probably coming back in
So I’ve had Danny Pink in my list until I find a Pir and Toothy
And tbh it’s been pretty disappointing
Idk why
Just don’t like it
Danny Pink is a house in my Marchesa deck
Long May She Reign! :crown:
It's definitely slower in Bumble tho
Sure, he’s solid in Marchesa
Long May She Reign! :crown:
Marchesa marchesa
Long May She Reign! :crown:
But 4 mana and you gave to cast something after usually sucks
[[Danny Pink]] He just does counters stuff eh?
It just checks if it has that text in it, it’s a yes or no not a full parse of the message
Legendary Creature — Human Soldier Advisor
Mentor (Whenever this creature attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on target attacking creature with lesser power.)
Creatures you control have "Whenever one or more counters are put on this creature for the first time each turn, draw a card."
"I don't want to see more things. I want to see the things in front of me more clearly."
4/3
He seems like he'd be really good, hm
The cards with just the regular names from the Dr Who set make me laugh every time.
That is another reason yeah
But also, idk
He doesn’t make brain chemical go
So I don’t like
That's valid
I just got the Kami of making mana, so I'm interested in how that'll go
Quality
Hardened scales attached to “tap mana for power” effect is precisely what you want in bumble
Yeah for sure
Oh, by the by, I had two games where I got to untap a bounceland and an artifact with [[teferi slows sun]]
Legendary Planeswalker — Teferi
+1: Choose up to one target artifact, up to one target creature, and up to one target land. Untap the chosen permanents you control. Tap the chosen permanents you don't control. You gain 2 life.
−2: Look at the top three cards of your library. Put one of them into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in any order.
−7: You get an emblem with "Untap all permanents you control during each opponent's untap step" and "You draw a card during each opponent's draw step."
Loyalty: 4
Very demure, very mindful
I sorta removed him to put in my mill stuff
Before he had a chance to hit the table, poor fella
He basically paid for himself at that point then eh? Or I guess only cost 1 mana
Instant
Spree (Choose one or more additional costs.)
— Mill four cards. You may put up to two creature and/or land cards from among the milled cards into your hand.
— You may put up to two creature cards from your hand onto the battlefield.
— Creatures you control with power 4 or greater gain hexproof and indestructible until end of turn.
thoughts?
Yeah, he was really good for that. Ramping the turn he comes down makes him real useful
The heroic intervention for big bois seems insane
Yeah Smuggler's Surprise is cool.
I only know it from an MTGGoldfish video where Seth used it to cheat out [[phyrexian obliterator]] as a blocker
[[heroic intervention]]
They’re really good in Muerra too
You will almost always use it for the last mode, but have the options of the other modes. I love modal cards, and this one is great. I don't run it in Bumble, but I have it in my Kyler deck, I believe.
I'm a casual Bumbler, but a hardcore Kyler-er.
I think I cut that card just because all my creatures were low CMC, so the other modes weren't really helping me very much. But even just the last mode is a great fit.
True true
How do we feel about [[minn wily illusionist]]
Legendary Creature — Gnome Wizard
Whenever you draw your second card each turn, create a 1/1 blue Illusion creature token with "This token gets +1/+0 for each other Illusion you control."
Whenever an Illusion you control dies, you may put a permanent card with mana value less than or equal to that creature's power from your hand onto the battlefield.
1/3
Seems like it could be pretty good
I've run it in my Bumble deck for a while, but honestly have only gotten to play it, like, once. I love the card, so I'm keeping it in, but I think it may end up being too slow / weak unless you're playing a lot of instants to draw on everyone's turns (I tend to, but not everyone here has the same deck build).
I built a Minn mono blue deck instead, and have been very happy. She's phenomenal.
Could be very good! I’d be down to test it but my thinking is she’d take up a beater slot
Since she makes big beater illusions
Yea true. Better than homunculus horde imo.
Yeah, 100%
Anyone messed with [[alandra sky dreamer]] yet?
Interresting. I never feel like I draw enough to make the second effect worth it but maybe some wheels would make that card real good
Wheels yeah, I suppose we really don’t draw 5 all that often huh
I also feel like burning 4 mana makes it so hard for me to play the low cost instants on other turns in that cycle that I need to get the multiple card draws right away. But casting cost is my hangup with every deck I run, in general.
I might have put that card in my Minn deck. The mana curve on that one is weird, because of the replacement ability. I can't remember.
Dang just lost a game playing as Zimone because I milled myself out
Lab man time!
Turns out I didn't need to mill out because [[Aesi]] is optional draw, so I just threw the game...
Multiple cards match “Aesi”, can you be more specific?
[[Aesi, Tyrant]]
Oof
I was one card away from a Triska win before the token deck did some infinite shit. Only a 3 player game, so my normal "draw when they draw" stuff was hamstrung.
Yeah, bumble in 3 player games is sus
Any thoughts on [[Spike Weaver]] 👀
you could almost fog for eternity with it
I see you also watched the spike feeders’ most recent video
Tbh the spikes in general are pretty solid
Could replace spore frog
I did! I was wondering if anyone else would notice XD
It was a cool card!
Spike feeder and spike weaver are both pretty deece
4 mana vs. 1 kinda sucks tho, for spore frog vs. fog spike
we cant loop spore frog easily though can we?
I use the MH3 creature that recurs a card from the graveyard whenever you give it a +1 counter. That kind of stuff. But yes, another way to do it is always good.
It's a great card for that fog effect in this deck, for sure. I guess it would just depend on what your curve is already, whether it'd be worth the cost or not.
seems like everything in my bumble deck cost 4 mana lol
Makes me wonder about things like [[hamza]] or [[nylea keen eyed]] - if there’s a superdensity of 4+cmc creatures it might be valuable to get cost reduction
Legendary Enchantment Creature — God
Indestructible
As long as your devotion to green is less than five, Nylea isn't a creature.
Creature spells you cast cost
less to cast.

: Reveal the top card of your library. If it's a creature card, put it into your hand. Otherwise, you may put it into your graveyard.
5/6
I think most of my 4MV cards are a mix and not mostly creatures
I also have been thinking that amount of draw cards, 9, being too many. I think I might swap them out for either brust draw or replace them with something else all together. Bumble draws so much on her own I feel like I only need like 6 or so draw
A lot of payoffs are higher mana, which is the struggle.
yeah which luckily hasn't been a huge issue for me. But mid game you only want so many 4 drops because its hard to double spell with a 4 drop mid game. I run a lot of ramp in bumble to help with that
Yeah, that's definitely the issue. I try to load the deck up with 1 cost instants (or thereabouts) so that I can still play a meaningful payoff (Trouble in Pairs, for example) and then have room to double spell when needed. Ramp can easily be a replacement / supplement for that strategy as well.
That's a pretty cool fog
I guess I'm pretty similar with 4 mv stuff
Just so many good 4mv things
Probably should be skewed lower tbh
Actually, funny that we only run 3 of the same 4 drops lol
Has Giggling Skitterspike been any good for you?
