But does nothing for lands

robust socket
#

i can say the cage also isnt gravehate

mortal kestrel
#

except if they are milling 3 cards, in something like hearthhull, your pulling one land while potentially feeding them up to 2 more

robust socket
#

i use it in my higher power grave recursion deck

#

realm breaker is more of a supplementary card in that sense

#

you dont want to target the grave player, or you want other grave controlling stuff

frail sierra
#

The tree is a ramp more than anything

robust socket
#

i think for the all versatile, if not for its price, the vacuum is one of the best

#

i dont think this deck lacks that ramp with all the rocks

#

double tapping things that taps for 3+ is already so much mana

frail sierra
#

I agree

#

Once I won with the current list and 2 lands

#

Pentand prism is one hell of a drug

robust socket
#

i think i lost track but i was going to mention

#

[[abstergo entertainment]] after the desert and before erech

frail sierra
#

Ramping for lands is not great, a tutor and get cornucopia for X=0 does a better job

glass cedarBOT
robust socket
#

i dont think it fits your use

#

but it would be my choice because of the potential colourless fixing and returning an artifact

frail sierra
#

So basically a second [[buried ruin]]

glass cedarBOT
frail sierra
#

I can see its use but I have other lands in mind before this one

robust socket
#

the mana fixing is somehow relevant with all the colourless mana source

frail sierra
#

Fair

robust socket
#

i am not a big fan of the mycrosynth there

#

but its okay

#

if you find the perfect artifact to copy

#

lol [[clear the mind]]

glass cedarBOT
robust socket
#

just saw a (spell commander) with that name too

#

a play test version which it can be your commander

#

[[remoseful cleric]] if need more hate, can add this one on top of other grave stuff

glass cedarBOT
robust socket
#

if the idea is just low cost,doesnt actually need to activate
[[sentinel totem]] can force some play the same way tormod does

glass cedarBOT
robust socket
#

my biggest issue with soul guide and stuff is the activate cost, have to have mana open

frail sierra
#

Na

#

The hate I am looking for has to be tutorable by the current package

#

Not much use in having a solution you have to rely a lot on luck to get

robust socket
#

its only luck if there are no enough card draw

#

tormod crypt is less of a nonbo because you do have ways to return artifact

#

also. if i draw 20+ card in a single game, i wouldnt be scared of the reanimation deck and think i need grave hate for it

#

would just run over the board with my own game plan

frail sierra
#

So to get the current progress:

Lux artillery
Boon of safety
Chandra > Saheeli that does everything
Soul lantern > torulud cript/ghost catcher/stone of ere

(Lands will be dealt later by me. I know more or less what to do)

robust socket
#

torulud XD

#

[[anime pakal thousand moon]] maybe

un-clock or whatever untapper seems fit

glass cedarBOT
#

Legendary Creature โ€” Human Soldier
Whenever you attack with one or more non-Gnome creatures, put a +1/+1 counter on Anim Pakal, then create X 1/1 colorless Gnome artifact creature tokens that are tapped and attacking, where X is the number of +1/+1 counters on Anim Pakal.
"If we are to protect this world, we can no longer hide within it!"
1/2

frail sierra
#

What about one of these guys

robust socket
#

assume overseer is coming back at this rate

#

scry bad jank

#

station is sorcery speed

frail sierra
#

This one is cool too

robust socket
#

loot also not netting gain

frail sierra
#

Filtering has its worth

robust socket
#

is it because you only want aritfact creature ๐Ÿ˜…

#

i mean those are bulk commons if you dont mind starting with some jank and upgrade down the line

#

they do what you want

#

i think at worst, trying the cards you want to play whenever they are good or not is the best experience you can get out of both brewing and playing

#

much better than using the best available to you because it would end up limiting your imagination

#

i think this applies to a lot of fast mana (ramp), and universal card draws

#

a small part of why i dont like game changers in my decks

#

for decade

frail sierra
#

Btw what do you think of poor man tolaria academy here?

frail sierra
#

Anything that can be protected by inspirit is immediately 10 times better in my eyes

frail sierra
#

Oh there is also the corgi

#

This one is ass tho

robust socket
robust socket
#

at the very least you can play them turn 2, station on commander T3 (if you have all 3 colours untapped) and start getting rid of cards in hand

#

but that would means MUCH more cuts

#

like 38 lands so you can actually discard extra stuff

robust socket
#

thats why the type is just dog, and not cyborg/robot

#

the same way a human is just human

#

grave hate tho ๐Ÿ‘€

#

it literally dig up the grave and sneak it back where it came from

robust socket
#

btw my favourite saheeli is [[sublime artificer]]

glass cedarBOT
robust socket
#

[[tezzeret the seeker]] is it too boring ?

glass cedarBOT
robust socket
#

i kinda like the -5

frail sierra
#

Both are pretty cool

#

The tezzeret in particular

#

But I like the walkers with the more flashy last abilities

frail sierra
#

@robust socket one dude at the lgs has an extra [[flare of denial]] can I slot that in?

glass cedarBOT
robust socket
#

artifacts are mostly colourless, harder to cast it for free

frail sierra
#

@glacial oxide you around?

#

I need a bit of help

glacial oxide
#

I am at work, will you be on around 9 est?

frail sierra
#

Sure

frail sierra
glacial oxide
#

On my way home

frail sierra
#

Kk

glacial oxide
#

home

frail sierra
# glacial oxide home

long story short i managed to get (some were gifts tbf) some extra pieces:

[[lost jitte]]
[[urza saga]]
[[esper sentinel]]
[[protection magic]]

glass cedarBOT
#

Enchantment Land โ€” Urza's Saga
(As this Saga enters and after your draw step, add a lore counter. Sacrifice after III.)
I โ€” This Saga gains "manat: Add manac."
II โ€” This Saga gains "mana2, manat: Create a 0/0 colorless Construct artifact creature token with 'This token gets +1/+1 for each artifact you control.'"
III โ€” Search your library for an artifact card with mana cost mana0 or mana1, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle.

frail sierra
#

any help for how to fit them in?

#

also if you see I updated the list a bit since last time you saw it

glacial oxide
#

you could cut a couple lands

frail sierra
#

You sure? I improved a bit the manabase but inspirit needs to hit the field fast

#

Maybe the bouncelands but going below 34+3 of those flippy things seems risky

glacial oxide
#

35 with MDFC is probably okay

#

Its worth considering at least, at some point adding cards is hard

frail sierra
#

On one hand. True

#

On the other these are all quite good here

#

Oooooh

#

Wait

#

I forgot one

#

[[isocron scepter]]

glass cedarBOT
frail sierra
#

I would love to have this in the list

glacial oxide
#

You probably want to cut fair/generic cards for these very unfair cards

#

like jitte makes stoneoil look a bit silly as a counter target, even though both cards are good

frail sierra
#

Oh the categories got all messed up

#

Stonecoil was supposed to be in the "mana sink" category

#

Angel of ruin can go
Stonecoil goes too
I love it but dreamtide whale has to go
Both the bouncelands

#

@glacial oxide how do these cuts look?

glacial oxide
#

good to me

frail sierra
#

Any other comments about the deck as of now?

frail sierra
# glacial oxide good to me

Inspirit, Flagship Vessel - Commander deck

(1) Commander โ€ข (1) Clones โ€ข (1) Copy โ€ข (2) Counters โ€ข (14) Draw โ€ข (2) Finisher โ€ข (1) Instant โ€ข (33) Land โ€ข (1) Mana Sink โ€ข (1) Planeswalker โ€ข (6) Proliferate โ€ข (6) Protection โ€ข (11) Ramp โ€ข (2) Recursion โ€ข (12) Removal โ€ข (1) Sac Outlet โ€ข (4) Tutor โ€ข (1) Untap

#

List btw

glacial oxide
#

Let me look

#

It might be possible to trim the protection package still

#

And scepter is actually not my favorite card, but dont let me stop you its fun

frail sierra
#

Also counterspell on the stick is amazing

frail sierra
glacial oxide
#

You can go up too, its a meta and strategy choice

#

And you have to counter three things with iso-counter before its destroyed to even go +1

glacial oxide
#

Great with the untappers, its just fragile

frail sierra
#

Since it will also eat a removal

#

I do like it to solidify the fortified position once inspirit is online

#

Also these 3 are pretty big with it even if the counterspell is the more """"fun"""" option:

[[Three steps ahead]] (i gotta pay more but the deck has ways to get mana)

[[Boros charm]]

[[Ripples of potential]]

glass cedarBOT
#

Instant
Proliferate, then choose any number of permanents you control that had a counter put on them this way. Those permanents phase out. (To proliferate, choose any number of permanents and/or players, then give each another counter of each kind already there. Treat phased-out permanents and anything attached to them as though they don't exist until their controller's next turn.)

frail sierra
#

@glacial oxide you still around?

glacial oxide
#

Im at work still, lunch break

frail sierra
#

Sorry, have a nice day

glacial oxide
#

Np

glacial oxide
#

I am home

#

wassup

#

And awake lol

frail sierra
#

Hello

#

Today I have a "weird" task at hand

#

Manabase

#

I am not too happy with it

frail sierra
glacial oxide
#

let me investitage

#

Im looking now, but what are you specifically not happy about

#

You might have a few too many colorless lands, and youre on the edge of how many comes into play tapped lands im willing to play

frail sierra
#

Ye that

#

I feel like I need mana faster

glacial oxide
#

Mhmm

frail sierra
#

Since inspirit is a pretty big piece of the engine

glacial oxide
#

This is where optimization meets fun

#

Manabases are rough honestly

frail sierra
#

I prefer 1 or 2 colors for that

glacial oxide
#

I think I saw 4 utility colorless lands, they're all awesome

frail sierra
#

I will not remove nesting grounds

#

Everything else is fair game

glacial oxide
#

I think its heavily preference based, they're all comparable

#

Except urza's saga

#

That one is not comparable lol

frail sierra
#

That is less of a land and more of a tutor

glacial oxide
#

For CIP tapped lands its hard too, they are mostly either fixing or utility

frail sierra
#

That gives mana

glacial oxide
#

Correct

#

Which is what you want from your colorless lands IMO

glacial oxide
#

I just consider them spells

#

Comes into play tapped

#

I consider CIP tapped lands as a "semi spells" in a way, and colorless lands in multiolor decks as basically full on spells.

frail sierra
#

The mycosinth garden is another land that has me puzzled

#

On one hand for 0-2 mana I can get another one of my best pieces

#

On the other trashy filter land

glacial oxide
#

I end up cutting it as often as I play it frankly. Its really hard to beat just being able to cast your cards on curve

frail sierra
#

Well ye

#

But this deck in particular loves to abuse the cheap artifacts with counters on them

glacial oxide
#

It sure does

frail sierra
#

Karn bastion on the other hand

#

Buried ruins too

#

Not sure about them

glacial oxide
#

those two I think are very cuttable
