cheetah7071 posted:Unless I'm missing something massive, your altered egos will never outpace their Elesh Norns. You briefly, before state based actions are checked, have n+1 Elesh Norns where n is the number of Altered Egos you've played. Then the n+1st dies, the next triggered ability resolves, and you have n+1 very briefly. At best, you are gaining one Altered Ego a turn. They will always gain one Norn per turn. It's a tied race where you occasionally have to take time off to draw cards. There's no slight modification that can make it function. You have to actually make it so the number of Norns you have (even temporarily) increases by more than one per turn. Has anybody suggested Kagemaro, First to Suffer yet? Get a giant hand and play that, sac it and wipe their board. e VVVV Right, forgot the Eidolon RembrandtQEinstein fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Mar 28, 2018 |

If you can untap a non-basic land, you could cast Apocalypse and solve it trivially. I'm not seeing a way to break through the hard lock.

The next eldrazi set has a pretty decent chance of breaking the lock. Anything with a cast trigger that can untap a land would do it and twiddle on a flash eldrazi is a card that designs itself

Since Elesh Norn is white I could use Sky Hussar to draw Emrakul every turn once I have two Egos and take infinite turns. With 4 Egos I have whatever I want in my hand. This helps less than it sounds since Emmy takes up my one spell a turn and I'm finding a lack of non-spell-based ways to break that.

Can anyone figure out how to break the lock if it's missing Sigarda, Host of Herons or Ivory Mask? If it's missing both, Bearer of Silence works, but I don't see why they are both necessary.

If you break any one piece, you can rip the whole loving thing to shreds in any number of ways, I've noticed. It's only every piece interlocked that makes it difficult.

Yeah but I can't think of any way you can force them to sacrifice permanents if you can't target them, or things you can do targeting them if you can't make them sacrifice permanents.

In fact I've posted how to do that for every piece except for Sigarda or Ivory Mask. Those two currently seem redundant, only one of them is needed.

Matsuri posted:Is Cast Down really going to be a $5 card? Dang. No. For an uncommon standard card to be 5+ it has to see quite a bit of play outside of Standard. Hell, Standard rares aren't $5 unless they're staples or also played in Modern. The only two cards that are uncommon in Standard right now and anywhere near $5 are Field of Ruin and Fatal Push. The number of rares that are in Standard and $5 is already pretty low. It's like Anointed Procession, Heroic Intervention, Walking Ballista, Vraska's Confession, Search for Azcanta and a bunch of lands.

I think for 1.50 or so its a fine price to pre-order it. It will see play outside of standard but not anywhere close to fatal push levels. Look at terminate numbers per deck but just more decks. Don't order it somewhere where they are going to change you nearly the same amount for the playset in shipping though. Wait for tcgplayer pre-orders to start.

Having them be uncommon is cool and good because you will see them running around in Draft a lot more. I like it better than having them be pushed for constructed, really.
