Deck discussion for Derevi, Empyrial Tactition EDH

There's so any ways to draw cards with blue in the mix I'd hate to run Howling Mine and let everyone else draw them, too. After all in a four player game you're only gaining one card to your enemie's three. Rhystic Study could well draw you 3-4 cards in between turns, and I've seen Mystic Remora draw double digit cards in a late game without even having to pay the upkeep once. Just a thought.

those both seem pretty amazing. I'm definitely going to look for them. the reason that I have mine in here is that I can pretty easily untap it during my turn, then tap it with a derevi trigger so that the opponents can't draw. and if the opponents draw some, I don't really mind much, I try to play casual-ish so that my friends don't hate me. thank you for the suggestions however.

I forgot Mine was still considered one of those old mono-artifacts. Good point re tapping it with Derevi.

I like your take on Evasive Maneuvers. I also have this deck and made changes as well. If you get a chance can you take a look and give some advise? I have done pretty well with it so far, but it can always be improved. http://www.mtgvault.com/xwarxmongerx/decks/bant-bag-of-tricks-edh/

Hi, in need of some help I see.... I won't personally own a Derevi EDH but there are some changes/additions to your EDH deck that woudl suit her ability and also gain what you want: card draw.

Repeatable Draw: One EDH staple capable of said action is Arcanis, the Omnipotent. In Derevi you can abuse the untap effect which can be enhanced either on Derevi with the addition of Strionic Resonator, or on Arcanis through Illusionist's Bracers.

Upkeep Draw: One slightly higher up the curve but stiff packing a late game punch is Staff of Nin. This artifact allows you to blow up mana dorks and 1 toughness generals. This also allows for you to draw an extra card at the beginning of your upkeep which is every handy.

The King of OP: Jace, The Mind Sculptor answers to this name and this dominant legacy icon leads to a powerful brainstorm each turn with not only gaining card advantage, but fixing draws too.

His little minion: Not really a left hand man, but Sensei's Divining Top allows for the similar card fixing for your draw step or multiple draws at the beginning of your upkeep, definitely worth investing in one of these.

Hope I helped.

If you are looking for other ideas or synergies, I don't have a Derevi decklist on Vault but feel free to check out my Oloro Control EDH, to see if you can take/implicate any themes/ideas to turbo charge your Derevi.
