#

Is [[ tree of perdition ]] good on a competitive level with this deck?

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

I do not know

#

It is 13 toughtness for 4 mana

#

Also very funny with [[soul immolation]]

elfin folioBOT
crisp shoal
#

True

#

I love [[ champion of the weird ]], such a funny card

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

He is great. I also need some extra goblins

#

Otherwise casting him becomes harder

sonic sluice
#

[[Park Heights Maverick]] is kind of a fun one for Auntie Ool

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

I do not see it

#

Is for the proliferate on hit?

tardy peak
#

yes

#

btw, why are you running cathartic reunion? just cause it was in the precon?

sonic sluice
#

Prolif on hit + just an annoying guy who puts +1 on himself so you can blight him without dying

tardy peak
#

true!

errant plume
tardy peak
#

it's not a very good card, i must say

errant plume
#

I kept almost all of the precon playable cards I feel

tardy peak
#

and the art where the chandra hugs her mother is better anyways

errant plume
#

[[cathartic reunion]]

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

It's fineeeeed

tardy peak
#

it is fine

errant plume
#

There is better shrs

#

Sure*

tardy peak
#

but i would rather run [[tormenting voice]] over it lol

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

Well now

tardy peak
#

you draw less, but you discard less as well

sonic sluice
#

You're forgetting [[Archfiend of Ifnir]]

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

Discarding is a win

tardy peak
#

it's a great card

#

but do you have enough discarding in your deck to fit it

sonic sluice
#

I dunno, but it's also in the precon and the card is baller

errant plume
#

Not in my current list for that

tardy peak
#

the six sol rings lmao

f1c2493ef1558055.png
errant plume
#

Should have a lot more discard for the demon to work

#

But i do like him

sonic sluice
#

Run cycle lands!

errant plume
sonic sluice
#

and landcyclers!

errant plume
#

Plan to end up on 10 ramps

sonic sluice
#

Please tell me you use Pot of Greed as a placeholder for draw spells

errant plume
sonic sluice
#

😂

tardy peak
tardy peak
#

!

#

well, the double ones

sonic sluice
#

the desert ones too

errant plume
sonic sluice
#

sac a desert and MLD your friends with [[Scav Grounds]]

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

i use POT OF GREED to draw THREE CARDS FROM MY DECK

#

that is right!

#

i use POT OF GREED

#

to draw THREE CARDS FROM MY DECK

#

or was it two

sonic sluice
#

wow, I thought Scav grounds was a strip mine effect for a moment

#

I'm dumb

tardy peak
errant plume
#

Yugioh it was 2 ye

#

Scav grounds is great so long as you do not use the grave much

tardy peak
sonic sluice
#

[[Lazotep Quarry]]

errant plume
#

I was considering if it was worth adding more creature recursion

sonic sluice
#

This land is also neat as a desert combo

elfin folioBOT
#

https://scryfall.com/card/m3c/79/lazotep-quarry

Lazotep Quarry

Land — Desert
manat: Add manac.
manat, Sacrifice a creature: Add one mana of any color.
manaxmana2, manat, Sacrifice a Desert: Exile target creature card with mana value X from your graveyard. Create a token that's a copy of it, except it's a 4/4 black Zombie. Activate only as a sorcery.

errant plume
#

[[victimize]] and [[reanimate]] are always beaconing

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

adding reanimate never hurts

sonic sluice
#

Idk what lands I'm adding if I upgrade this precon tbh

#

I have a [[Ziatora's Proving Grounds]] that's a shoe in

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

thankfully i am not interested in either of the precons

sonic sluice
#

I couldn't pass up on Jund goblins tbh

tardy peak
#

unthankfully i wanted tribal decks for lorwyn precons

#

a tall ask, i know

tardy peak
sonic sluice
#

...I would've bought a Faeries deck

errant plume
#

[[ammit eternal]]

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

Cute

errant plume
#

That ashling is great

tardy peak
sonic sluice
#

Okay but they should've printed a Sultai faeries precon

tardy peak
#

and 5c

#

and grind

errant plume
tardy peak
#

all things i don't like about modern magic

errant plume
#

And an abzan walls

tardy peak
#

just give me my kithkins and i will go home

sonic sluice
#

Doran and Maralen should've been precon commanders

tardy peak
#

:(

sonic sluice
#

it's true

#

Treefolk are baller

errant plume
tardy peak
#

whenever opponent casts a spell

#

you draw a card

#

i love rhystic study

#

or was that remora that draws on every spells

[[mahadi master]]

elfin folioBOT

3/3

tardy peak
#

he's fun

errant plume
tardy peak
#

ah

errant plume
#

I like him

#

They forgot nontoken

tardy peak
#

wait, no way they put a 2 card combo in a precon

20b499b29709c177.png
errant plume
#

They put 2

tardy peak
#

oh my god

errant plume
#

[[flourishing defenses]]

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

the one with scarabs also i assume

tardy peak
sonic sluice
#

Scarabs ain't in

tardy peak
#

it's not?

#

huh

#

well, defense sucks compared to it

#

5 mana is a tad bit too much imo

sonic sluice
#

look at the price chart for Flourishing

#

it's fucking hilarious

tardy peak
#

genuine peak

errant plume
tardy peak
#

bro costed 23 dollars at the peak what the hell

tardy peak
errant plume
#

Slow reading

#

Anyway 5 mana is worth the multiple copies

tardy peak
#

what about yawgmoth

errant plume
#

Too rich for my blood

tardy peak
#

good point

#

not blue enough

errant plume
#

I ma trying to stay below 10 bucks a card

tardy peak
#

[[persistent constrictor]] is kinda goated, no?

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

The ones expensive already in the list where already in my collection

errant plume
#

Genuinely would not play it if it was 1 dollar

tardy peak
#

lol

#

i guess 5mv is too much

sonic sluice
#

Persistent Constrictor seems okay to me, but it's probably too much mana

#

[[Eventide's Shadow]]

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

this card is so fucking funny

errant plume
#

Hell ye

#

[[peer into the abyss]] at home

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

[[harbringer of night]] is hilarious

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

but it costs an arm and a leg

errant plume
#

Also like 30 bucks

sonic sluice
#

Kill target planeswalker and draw cards equal to its loyalty counters 😂

errant plume
tardy peak
#

finally

#

a counter to superfriends

errant plume
#

Only opponent ones too

sonic sluice
#

When I saw this card revealed I actually laughed

errant plume
#

Truly funny card

#

Might be funny to run [[susur secundi]] and the red one just to sometimes leech off the energy counters

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

he he he ha

sonic sluice
#

Also

#

[[oftnabbed goat]] this is my new favourite draw spell

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

literally GOATed

errant plume
#

The true GOAT

#

Political tool too

sonic sluice
#

I've been joking with Goatnap since I started playing magic

tardy peak
#

i hate this website sometimes

errant plume
#

This one goatnaps itself

sonic sluice
#

This set really hit home with me lmao

tardy peak
tardy peak
#

way better than marvel or whatever shit they are doing

errant plume
sonic sluice
#

My box of ECL is stuck in Germany for some inane reason though

tardy peak
errant plume
#

It was 1 buck for months for a good reason

tardy peak
#

it's just the precon effect

#

[[crumbling ashes]]

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

now this is speculation

#

44 dollars

#

ain't no way

sonic sluice
#

What about the kill spell that connive-convokes?

errant plume
#

Ye, speculators swipe everything, prices rise up, people see "card that matters with precon and is expensive" and add it everywhere without thinking if it is ass or not

sonic sluice
#

[[Lethal Scheme]]

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

Love that one

#

Sure why not

tardy peak
#

lethal scheme is so awesome

#

and cool

#

and swag

sonic sluice
#

💯

tardy peak
#

real

#

i love when they do stuff like this

sonic sluice
#

Connive is one of my favourite mechanics

tardy peak
#

keywords that make sense

#

together

errant plume
#

Still got 6 empty spots

tardy peak
#

WHY DID THEY PUT [[LILIANA DEATH WIELDER]] IN A PRECON

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

WHAT

sonic sluice
#

Yeah

errant plume
#

I mean, it is not the worst card I have seen in a precon

tardy peak
#

it's so bad, what are you doing

sonic sluice
#

It's liliana though

#

people love lili

errant plume
#

I do

tardy peak
#

i guess

#

but she's so bad </3

errant plume
#

I will add her to my pet project liliana tribal deck

sonic sluice
#

Actually hold on

#

[[Spymaster's Vault]]?

elfin folioBOT
#

https://scryfall.com/card/mh3/230/spymasters-vault

Spymaster's Vault

Land
This land enters tapped unless you control a Swamp.
manat: Add manab.
manab, manat: Target creature you control connives X, where X is the number of creatures that died this turn. (Draw X cards, then discard X cards. Put a +1/+1 counter on that creature for each nonland card discarded this way.)

tardy peak
#

arguably liliana from the actual amonkhet set would be better

errant plume
#

Goated card too

tardy peak
tardy peak
#

you sacrifice efficency for a theme

errant plume
#

But I can manage the ramp, and land part of the deck just fine

tardy peak
#

this is just

#

sad

errant plume
#

She was the planeswalker for the old precons

sonic sluice
errant plume
#

The ones that where designed for kitchen play without any collection behind

sonic sluice
#

so could just be they wanted a reprint slot

tardy peak
#

that is the whole reason why i am baffled

#

i remember buy kaladesh chandra precon in like 2018 or smth

errant plume
#

Small tangent but i fucking love [[dread tiller]]

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

real

errant plume
#

Will play the capenna "fetch lands" just for this bad boy

tardy peak
#

he's awesome

#

[[deity of scars]] is funny

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

probably very bad

#

but funny

errant plume
#

Agreed

#

Wait a minute

#

[[morselhoarder]]

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

yeah this guy

#

was about to post

errant plume
#

What about. This thing?

tardy peak
#

another druid

#

but for 6

errant plume
#

They work in the opposite direction actually

#

This one can handle infinite number of counters

#

Hold on

#

Do I want boots?

sonic sluice
#

what about [[Ashenmoor Liege]]?

elfin folioBOT
#

https://scryfall.com/card/2x2/174/ashenmoor-liege

Ashenmoor Liege <:mana1:292901508373282827><:manabr:292901508939382784><:manabr:292901508939382784><:manabr:292901508939382784>

Creature — Elemental Knight
Other black creatures you control get +1/+1.
Other red creatures you control get +1/+1.
Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, that player loses 4 life.
Cinders carry an ancestral grudge that makes them slow to trust and quick to retaliate.
4/1

errant plume
#

Pass

tardy peak
#

fits thematically not mechanically

errant plume
#

Cannot handle even one -1/-1 counter

sonic sluice
#

Or [[Creakwood Liege]]?

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

This one gets you a free sac body

errant plume
#

Wait

#

I purchased these two bad boys the other day

sonic sluice
#

they're a cycle from og Lorwyn/Shadowmoor

#

and almost all of them are good

#

Ashenmoor is prob worst

errant plume
tardy peak
#

beledros

#

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

sonic sluice
#

nevermind lol [[Boartusk Liege]] is kinda mid too

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

trample 🗣️ 🔥

errant plume
sonic sluice
#

Strixhaven 👀

errant plume
#

I could also move [[the meathook massacre]] from another deck to this one

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

Bet you the new Strixhaven cards are going to rock in this deck too

errant plume
#

It does not fit 100%

tardy peak
#

i want more lorehold cards

sonic sluice
#

My boy Quintorius

tardy peak
#

he is literally me

#

i also don't want to go to army and would rather read books

#

🗣️

sonic sluice
#

...and you have a big trunk?

tardy peak
#

no need to spell it out like that

errant plume
#

Wait

sonic sluice
errant plume
#

I fogot to put in [[atomize]]

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

I had it already too

tardy peak
#

it's peak

#

proliferate is always good

errant plume
#

Got to 100 cards

#

How does it look so far?

tardy peak
#

it's fine

#

i see no major issues in this

errant plume
#

Idk. I feel like something is amiss

acoustic night
crisp shoal
errant plume
#

First game ended well

#

However

#

I think I have too little to put -1/-1 on my own creatures

#

I thought "auntie ool will be a great draw engine"

#

which she is

#

If you get the ball rolling with the counters

errant plume
tardy peak
#

i think you need cards that put counters on themselves

#

like, more cards like [[devoted druid]]

elfin folioBOT
errant plume
#

This one is already in the deck

#

I need some more@tardy peak

tardy peak
#

can't rn

errant plume
#

Didn't mean to interrupt sorry

#

I was sleeping

tardy peak
#

it's fine

errant plume
#

@tardy peak when are you around?

tardy peak
#

right about now

#

but i still need a bit of time, like 10 minutes

errant plume
#

Kk

tardy peak
#

[[serrated biskelion]]

elfin folioBOT
tardy peak
#

there aren't many that put counters often

#

[[warren torchmaster]] kinda cool-looking

errant plume
#

Ye, the good pieces spiked out of their mind

#

I think this is basically all I can include

#

I could get some tutors tho

#

Those would help getting champion of the weird out more consistently

strong kestrel
#

Trying to build this as well from pieces of my Yawgmoth deck, which I put Yawgmoth in Auntie lol

#

Wondering if Phyrexian Altar would have a place here

sonic sluice
#

[[Basking Broodscale]] is also a fun choice

elfin folioBOT
sonic sluice
#

It has adapt for mana1manag, but it generates mana1 doing so,, so blighting kinda nice here

strong kestrel
