The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...
Start typing a card name and use the auto-complete feature to quickly select the card you're trying to add. Enter a quantity and add that card to your sideboard!

Why I love New Phyrexia :D BTW: I am fully aware of that fact relies heavily upon Melira and that the turn one extraction combo would obliterate this deck, but it's only meant to highlight potential uses of Melira, not be a fully functioning deck. Melira + Phyrexian Unlife = Invulnerability :) Melira + Etched Monstrosity = 5 mana 10/10 :) Melira + BSZ = LOLZ Melira + Phyrexian Hydra = Unkillable 7/7 :)

A couple canopy covers for Melira? One bolt and you're done.

Ahhh a good addition kind sir. Very much appreciated :)
Overall a nice deck Cut the canopy covers for asceticism Also i dot know if the monstrosity works with melira because it enters play with them... I love the ramp part though With this i took a more aggro approach Please check it out http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=178316
Asceticism is SOO expensive though... Plus the pseudo-flying of Canopy Cover can really help Phyrexian Hydra and others get through easy...
i agree, ascetecism is the way to go
The Etched Monstrosity/Melira combo does work, I had a judge rule it, and they said that it works.
Get some Glistening Oil! Stick it on their creatures when Melira is out and they can't touch you with combat damage. Recurs all game long! Just gotta focus on protecting that sly little gal any way you can.
wow. excellent addition. thanks bro :)

i can tell u all that the she and the etched monstrosity work and if u are still feeling uneasy about it add torpor orb and its a done deal. 10/10 for 5.
Not sure that would work, Torpor Orb only affects activated abilities to trigger when they enter the battlefield. The wording of Etched Monstrosity is "Etched Monstrosity enters the battlefield with five -1/-1 counters on it" which isn't an activated ability. The way it works with Melira is that her ability is passive and so affects the Monstrosity the moment it is cast. (I think that's how the judge I asked worded it)
Counters being placed on a creatures counts for when they enter the battle field as well. So etched monstrosity would enter the battle field with 0 -1/-1 counters.
Lol I was actually questioning that combo when I snuck it in here, so it's good to know that you guys are on top of it lol
I would do this if I were you -2 darksteel relic -2 mox opal -2 carapace foger -2 ezuri's brigade -4 ornithropter -4 memnite -2 glistening oil -1 norn's anex lands -5 forests -3 plains +2 green sun zenith +4 death's shadow +4 hex parisites +2 soul conduit +4 wall of omens +1 melira +1 canopy cover +1 etched monstrosity Lands +3 sunpetal grove +3 razorverge thicket +2 stirring vast woods +4 Marsh flats Side board 4 noxious revivals vs extraction ( in response to your surgical extraction I cast noxious revival =D) Overall it felt like you were trying to do two things with this deck. What I intend by my suggestions is adding a more stable land base, taking out metalcraft, and adding even more interactions with melira. side note hex parasite can kind of do the job of melira for some of your monsters and it completely destroys planswalkers.
Of course these are just suggestions and it is your deck =)
Hmm I totally get what you're saying about Metalcraft in here... I actually do not remember why some of the cards in there or why I thought they were a good idea. I will definitely fine-tune this one by removing the Metalcraft. Thanks man :)
Melira + BSZ = lolz ...I just got an idea! =D
Yeah that combo has to be my favorite just for the blank-faced confusion and awe in your opponents face. The first time I did it my friend was just like, "........wait........ hold on.....hmm..... okaythat works.... daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn......"
wudnt u want 4 melira, or do u think having 3 melira and 2 green sun is enough? idk though u can play test and find out, but good deck :)
Playtesting has found that 3 is "usually" enough with 2 GSZ, but depending on the deck im playing against, Ive sometimes even played 4 with 3 GSZ lol
I really like the idea's, and honestly am unsure about what to suggest for you! Really appreciate the feedback from my deck, and I'm sorry I can't help out more!
why is there a darksteel relic?
Darksteel Relic was originally put in here to make sure Mox Opal has metalcraft out. Unfortunately, it hasnt been playtesting quite how I want it...
I would maybe use darksteel plate. to make melira indestructible =) that would protect from direct damage like lighting bolt and destruction like doom blade or go for the throat. i really like what you did with this. I also love new phyrexia. i would like it if you checked out some of my decks. they are heavily based off this series and block.
yay front page! Believe it or not, this is my first of 168 decks to make it onto the front page. Thanks guys :)
the mana curve seems absurd. Especially with the lack of ramp here. Also - if you're going to highlight her uses in a deck for show over the internet, I love the deck! it's super fun! :D but if you want to play the deck and show off how good she is, i'd work on a few things. Namely, providing ramp, and some of the cards you want to get the combo out faster with. Also, running protection for her is nice, as is NOT running a darksteel relic. Rofl. Maybe try throwing 4 overgrown battlements in there, and possibly some green sun / phrexian metamorph / birds of paradise / other tapsacs to get lotus cobra. Metamorph and green sun can either provide further crazy ramp with battlements, or it can copy a titan they have, or green sun can be used to search up your star. :D birds helps with the awkward mana base, and cobra + tapsacs help with that further, and they provide awesome ramp, as well as some deck thinning. :) Not to mention overgrown battlements provides an awesome defense that can holy back opponents for a very, very long time. Hope the comment helped! check out my new deck? Like for like? or Comment for Comment? http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=214558
If you go for that combos (I don't think etched works),you should have 4 melira,3 unlife .. Mox opals can go out,birds of paradise is good,those elves should go ... This can be tournament quality deck ... if you go wit BSZ you don't need Elesh ... glistening oil is perfect addition... I see this have future ... Just imagine Valakut down with a single thing ... What about Twin Exarch ? You should also go with fetch lands,to be quicker...
I really like that combo with Melira and BSZ........and also Melira and Phyrexian Unlife......a couple darksteel plates wouldn't hurt, and how about a couple of Diabolic Tutors to find the Melira or other supporting cards.....just a thought......I love decks like this.....well done sir
With Melria you can now use Phyrexian Vatmother without getting thoughs pesky poison counters every upkeep. Not that it would be cost effective.
Hex Parasite to remove those counters from Etched Monstrosity which gives it a bonus to boot.
Those combs all look like they just wreck, but even with Melira + Phyrexian Unlife = Invulnerability, how does it hold up against a mill deck?
Every deck has its weaknesses. Unfortunately unless you plan on adding cards such as eldrazi or elixir of immortality it's kinda hard to counter mill...
Nice deck and combos. I might have to borrow some of these ideas for when I play next.
i liek your cards
why the use of canopy cover over swiftfoot boots ?
and also, why not use diabolic tutor? to ensure the probability of these combos?
Can anyone of you guys come check out my white cards and give me some guidance on making a half decent white weenie deck. I just put down my what cards but i got a lot of other colors and artifacts. I would really appreciate it if you could come check it out thank you!!! here is the link http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=215571 nice deck BTW
umm 3 color standard with absolutely no duel lands? like you'll throw in Mox Opels but no sun petal groves or fetch lands?
I love the feel of the deck. It really works, I've been wanting to throw together something around her for a while. I think my favourite Melira interaction is how she works with Persist creatures.
id scrap carapace forger and the metalcraft, green has enough mana ramp/filter and you dont really need metalcraft in here. Please comment on my artifact/dragon deck! :)
