the chances of having a plummet by the time stormbreath hits the field are slim at best, unless you run a full set. if you do that though, you run the risk of drawing a second or even third and killing your draws that couldve been something more useful

kalonian doesnt benefit from xenagos at all until he is decent sized, and he only uses a few hydras so he isnt worth the space needed to add him. corpsejack isnt necessary here because he doesnt focus on +1 counters, so including him would be a waste

im not hating. just making a funny

^ failed Doge meme attempt

yeah dont even joke about taking out polukranos. ive played a buddy's modern green devotion and watched him activate his monstrous for 34. my entire field vanished in an instant. poluk is hands down the best hydra in the game in terms of sheer brutality

zhur-taa ancient takes too long to get out and it benefits everyone, so that would also make his opponent able to speed up their strategy. savageborn i think could be a viable alternative to mistcutter, primarily because of the double strike. chumps wouldnt do you much good vs that

i never said it was worth keeping in here mcjordalini. it depends on one thing: what sees play where you are. most of my frineds play casual games, and most run modern tribal decks, so i dont normally get to use big guys like hydras because they load their decks with tokens. on the flip side to that though, decks i run with big guys usually have some form of trample or more direct damage. ninjastyle isnt wrong or right in saying that it wont work here, because he is looking at it from a competetive standpoint, while most other people will likely see it from a kitchen-table point of view. it is up to the player to determine if something is worth the overall inclusion into a deck.

not everyone will have elspeth though because not everyone has the luck or $$$ to have her, and of the ones that do, most only will have 1, MAYBE 2. the main reason i love mistcutter is because he has haste. i consider being uncounterable a bonus

with enough weenies out, xenagos can ramp into his god-form that right there is a board i would love to see

i think he would prefer xenagos for the ability to buff his hydras fairly easily. if it werent for that, i would totally say go with domri

a very sexy jund deck. although i would reccommend dropping a polukranos for a mistcutter. with polu being legendary, you wont be able to play him again until the one out dies (or needs killed off for whatever reason). mistcutter is all kinds of sexiness no matter how ou look at it. just a thought :D

if you are trying to say that phantasmal would kill itself then no, it wont. lord of the unreal has passive abilities, so they arent targeting the creatures, more like altering the playing field as a whole, thus if you image the lord, it will still work

and what exactly is the combo here? besides isochroning the obvious spells

its a theme deck man. it fits the theme. thats really the only answer you need. so its too expensive to cast? so what. unless he is playing in a tournament or something, he will likely be able to get it out when he has the mana for it. its a kitchen table deck, so chillax

glad we could help :D

no. the targeting of an illusion means it will die, even if the spell is countered. only hexproof and shroud can stop it from dying

this is where lord comes into the mix. kira wont save the illusions, but it WILL stop lord from dying. that is where it really comes in. with lord and kira out, you cant touch any illusions until you waste a total of 3 kill spells. thats why she is so useful in here

^ that right there is precisely why its a good fit. Hoplites are the bane of standard right now

i want to make this so i can try it out. looks so fun to play :D

the chances of running into a good ooze deck in standard is low. maybe in modern. master is another story though...
