Clout of the Dominus? Maybe?You are low on first turn drops.Clout would make it very hard for your opponent to kill one of your better Flying Creatures.Good luck!
Suggested a card Red, good luck!
Deadly Allure, maybe? Make them have to block your deathtouch creature, then bring it back with Shirei.
These two static abilities combined, can't go wrong there.
Done, with WLinezanelli! :)
Sorry guys. Been swamped lately!!! Busy with home life.
Lots of stuff is, that I would of never thought would be!!! Like the Seething Song i was going to suggest. Only thing I can think of is that must of been same Modern decks having too much of the same card. So they had to bring up the monotony by banning key cards, that way there would be more variety of types of decks.
4 different mana colors. You what I was referring to, dork! :)
Nice. You realize that it is slow to build, so you added cards that slow down your opponent.The nonbasic land you are running is very themed (nice addition). At first, Angelic Page seems weak, but her ability is very nice for mid game! A decent Angel deck, that is cheap, is very hard to do. I think you pulled it off nicely! I would one up your deck anyways, but the fact that you took the time to put down 75 Angels in the Sideboard gets your deck liked by me! :)
Flash is on the list, but yeah, no one covered. Will look at WLinezanelli's decks as soon as i can. Commented on the Deathtouch deck. Promise, will get to the rest. Yes, that is one of my favorite movies, by the way! You rock for quoting it, WLinezanelli!
Commented on and liked!
Running 4 lands, i commend you my good friend! I never have the guts! I stick to 3 or under. I admire that!
Your first comment made my week. This comment made my month! Somewhere else, in another part of the country/world, my deck is being played (successfully) at a comic book store/magic shop!!! And 75 percent, isn't too shabby! Especially for a deck that isn't modern/standard and cost less than 20 bucks!!!!!Yes, it does require strategic playing!! Gitaxian Probe almost needs to be in here, somewhere. That way you would better know what would be beneficial to bounce. I usually aim at lands and creatures. Way I figure it...the less lands they have, the less options they have at slowing my bounce down. By you even stating that it requires strategy tells me that you are a sound player. :) Your suggestions sounds very solid. Please tell me how it goes. "Big Breast Deck"I should change the name to that, but not sure if Magic Vault would approve!!Again, thanks for making my day!!! I know you said you found weaknesses. I have found one too. I have found...stuff like Distortion Strike and Wings of Velis Vel...if you already have Clout (in my case) and Zephid's Embrace on your Constable, the Velis Vel and Distortion strike becomes a dead card!! That is where Cryptoplasm comes into play. You can clone one of their creatures and pump it up with Velis Vel.P.S. Have you got your opponent down to, in a game, to where you are board swiping every turn? Haha. Bounce/control like decks are evil!
The Mono white protection (wife's) had me down to 4 life. IT is the way to go. Gave her creatures Flickering Ward. Then giving my Cephalid, Recumbent Bliss. so that it can't attack/block.
Thanks!! And it is an honor that you would do that!! To proxy the deck. That made my freaking week!!! Just curious, how did the deck do against your friends? I am undefeated with the deck...but my wife had me down to 4 life last time I played. Only way I won was having 3 Constables out. Yep, if you don't get Constable out, SUPER EARLY, it is going to be rough. That is where Drift of Phantasms and Impulse comes in. Drift lets you, for 3 mana, put a Constable in your hand. Impulse lets you look at the top 4 cards in your library...that is very strong!!! Impulse, lots of times, actually gets you the Constable. In the very least, Impulse is going to get you a bounce card to help you live long enough to get Constable out. Distortion strike...actually do not run that in this deck. I added it because surewhynot suggested it. Look at that guys decks!!! He is one of the best deck makers on this site!!! His decks put mine to shame. But I run Clout of the Dominus instead of Distortion Strike. Main reason is, Dominus gives Cephalid SHROUD and +1/+1. Main issue i was running into, was people trying to bounce/doom blade my Cephalid. So, for 1 mana, I was casting Dominus on my Cephalid AT THE SAME TIME I CAST Cephalid. High tide is iffy. But on the 4th turn, if you have a Constable out...High tide can get you both a Wings of Velis Vel and Zephid's Embrace on a Constable!! And if he goes through unblocked, it is 6 permanents being returned to your opponent's hand!!! That usually is the game. Most people do suggest taking out Capsize. IT is worth considering. Thank you so much for your support and suggestions!!!
Over 80 times. I imagine the worst thing that could happen with Emra, is your opponent stealing it!! That would piss me off to no end!!!
Lots can kill him. Executioner's CapsuleDamnationApocalypseMerciless Eviction WorldfireDeathtouch creatures!!! Not fair!(It can be stolen with blue cards like Empress Galina, Cytoplast Manipulator)Royal Assassin Mangara of CorondorIntrepid HeroBrittle EffigyO-ringKarakasJourney to NowhereGeth's VerdictDiabolic VerdictCruel VerdictImperial VerdictChainer's VerdictDay of JudgementWrath of GodSpoilHumilityReaper from the AbyssReaper KingExtirpateKalitasWord QuellerI may be wrong (i suck with rules)...but, "Activated, triggered, and static abilities are not spells."And the key word here is "target." Wrath of God will kill Emra because it doesn't target Emra. Even if it has protection from white. Wrath of God will still kill it. IT makes no damn sense, but that is the rule. There are more cards that will kill him, I am sure. But I listed a lot. :)http://www.essentialmagic.com/Articles/Protection.aspLink to why Wrath of God, Damnation kill Emra.So...bottom line, he is hard to kill...but not impossible. Make it even harder to kill him, by making sure you have counterspells!Good luck!!
Turn 2 or 3, having a 15 mana card out, is amazing!The Dissolve looks tricky...only because it is double blue mana. The thing is, as soon as Emra hits the table, he will be enemy number 1!! So, you need a way to protect him. Dispel might work over Dissolve (he doesn't have scry though).Spell Pierce is brutal too. Almost any card that might kill Emra is going to be covered in Spell Pierce, not all of them, but a lot of them! Negate also works.
What the hell, Seething Song is ACTUALLY BANNED in Modern? Who knew?!I was going to recommend it.
