It's got a lot of upside, and cycling isn't top concern as the goal tends to be to kill them as fast as possible, on the other hand in this deck, 2 mana is hugely more expensive than 1.

I already have 4 Firedrinker in there. And yeah Crusader is definitely the optimal one drop, but I really like the redundancy of Hoplite. He adds one power to the board for every Heroic trigger just the same, and most of the time that extra damage coming from another creature is going to be better, but sometimes you want that bigger body. Hoplite can get out of range of Anger of the Gods, for example, whereas Crusader is always going to get blown out by it. I think you're right about the Mantle though, after taking it down to 2 copies I almost immediately miss the cantripping. I might try splitting 2/2 with Lightning Strike and Fist for curve reasons and keep it at 4 Mantle.

It is a very technical deck and not like a burn deck at all and requires very expert use of your mana as their are a ton of mana sinks in the deck. There are so many lines to go towards in order to do 20 damage to the opponent and definitely going to sleeve it up for game day. Samael fucked around with this message at 15:32 on Sep 24, 2014 |

What kind of fixing would I need to have UU (Dig Through Time) and BB (Drown In Sorrow and Hero's Downfall) in a Villainous devotion deck? Should I not bother with either, sticking with Treasure Cruise and Sultai Charm? I'm also a little worried about being weak to Thoughtseize but hopefully being traditional with Arbor Colossus and Polukranos as well as being able to restock when flooded will prevent too many problems when the Villainous Wealths get countered or Thoughtseized.

19 black sources to cast your removal on time, 16 blue sources to cast Dig around turn 5 or so, maybe 9 green sources to cast Wealth the turn afterwards. You can shave those numbers a little (especially the green) by accounting for your card drawing and selection, but it's still really greedy. You really just can't play CC-costing things across three different colours without having both fetches and typed duals to make up your manabase.

Also to be fair, four white sources is not a suitable mana base to cast anything with. I mean, even if you really really can't afford tapped lands (you can probably do fine with a couple of tapped lands), at least put some basic Plains in there or something.

Angry Grimace posted:This is almost identical the final deck I'm sleeving up this weekend (assuming I get the cards, of course)  I played against a friend of mine and didn't like Despise in the main much - Elspeth I thought about more and would rather have her in the sideboard against stuff like Control or other Midrange decks. I added another Anafenza and two Wingmate Rocs, my thought process being that Anafenza is a house and having a slim chance of drawing her is a bad thing, but I don't want to always draw her. Wingmate Rocs would help against aggro, and having two fliers in the sky is great. I might re-add Cut again, just need to know what to cut for it though. Maybe 1 Abzan Charm and 1 Banishing Light? Offer is still up to playtest in Cockatrice because that would be hella useful before ordering some of the pieces.

They provide a little extra reach from the graveyard, but are better suited in an aggro strategy when you just need to push through the extra 2 damage. Sylvan Caryatids would be better replacements for them in my opinion, they should help you power out your bigger creatures earlier. OOF -- $12.99 a pop, nevermind.

The Dredgescape Zombies are actually from the Speed vs. Cunning duel decks, but Tapped Out wasn't displaying that properly. I originally put them in because I thought they gave me more graveyard play--I could discard them for Sidisi or the Vizier, and then play them out of the grave. I guess they don't do as much for me as I had intended. I can't afford the Sylvan Caryatid right now, but maybe I can trade someone for it the next time I'm playing. Thanks for the suggestion on the Bloodsoaked Champion. I bought one just now and will update my list to reflect that. Coming back more than once means I can be a bit trigger-happy about sacrificing/discarding/swinging with him. Edit: Ahh crap, I bought the card while you were making your edit. Edit2: So I've been winning in the past by stalling the game out with zombie tokens, then swinging with Become Immense on one of the big creatures (especially the Terra Stomper). If the game lasts, Garruk's emblem means I'll go whole-hog, since even the zombie tokens will be killing machines. I've been losing to mass flying, fast aggression, and gods like Purphoros that can damage me each turn without me having a response.

I guess they don't do as much for me as I had intended. Bloodsoaked Champion is a really good card anyways, and you won't be sad for having bought him. I'm considering buying 4 before everyone gets the idea that he's The Real DealTM. He just might not be optimal in this build. If you even have a passing idea of making an aggro deck in black, Bloodsoaked Champion's your man. So it looks like you're going for big beefy beats mid-to-late game. As I suspected, Dregscape Zombie doesn't really fit into that plan too well because 2/1 quickly becomes irrelevant, even coming back from the graveyard later. You're almost definitely going to need more spot removal. This set's Murderous Cut is exactly what you're looking for, and I would try and get my hands on at least two of them, if not the full complement. Windstorm is a great answer in green for mass flying creatures, and it's been reprinted from here and back, so it should be negligibly cheap. Plummet is probably your next best cheap option. Green has access to some real God-hosers, notably Fade Into Antiquity (seeya forever Purps) and Unravel the Aether which will give you some breathing room at instant speed. Also, I don't know why, but Reaper of the Wilds is still stupidly cheap and a really good Golgari card. 4/5 potential deathtouch/hexproof is a really flexible creature. You should reliably be able to use it's scry ability with all the zombies you should be pumping out. Drown In Sorrow and/or Bile Blight is good removal against early aggro decks, and I don't think they're terribly expensive right now. Sagu Mauler has hexproof and trample, and is a great target for Become Immense. Treasure Cruise as a one-of would be a really good way to keep your hand stocked and make use of those delve cards. Also, Nighthowler could be a wicked card in this deck, but probably prone to massive fluctuations in P/T if you delve often. Still, it's a $1 rare. I'm sure there are others here who have more advice, but there's my two cents. What the hell: I have some time at work today, so I'll go through your deck and offer my ideas, keeping in mind you're on a budget: -Ancient Silverback. A decent finisher creature, stays on the battlefield for a while, but doesn't synergize at all with your graveyard, and has zero evasion. I would replace it with the aforementioned Reaper of the Wilds. -Bloodsoaked Champion. As mentioned before, a great card, but maybe not at home here. -Dregscape Zombie. Illegal in standard. Cut ASAP. Like Bloodsoaked Champion, but worse. There are plenty of other cards you could put in. -Grim Haruspex. Personally, I like this card, but the "nontoken" clause really hurts in in this deck. Still, not bad, and oddly enough, combos well with our ol' buddy Bloodsoaked Champ. -Mystic of the Hidden Way. Nice budget card, and a great target for your Become Immenses. It will eat removal very quickly. You could eventually do better, but this is a nice clock while you gum up the groundworks with zombies. -Necromancer's Assistant. Good way to enabler delve cards, and a decent body. It's doing what you want this deck to do, so keep it in. -Necropolis Fiend. Tight, you could play this out pretty quickly and get out to a good lead. It wouldn't hurt to have 1 more. -Prognostic Sphinx. Also a good card, evasive, a naturally big butt, and a massive delve enabler. Scry 3 is big too. I love it. -Rakshasa Deathdealer. It's a really good card to stick early and keeps some relevance late game by being a mana sink and resilient, but the lack of evasion makes it a subpar choice. Not bad, but one of my first considerations for cut. -Rakshasa Vizier. Yeah, this dude gets super swole just being around while you Delve. Opponents are going to need quick answers once you've stuck them. But, as usual, they're just big bodies with no evasion, so they will eventually be outclassed by anything with regeneration or deathtouch. Still great synergy with your plan, and a late cut if at all. -Ruthless Ripper. Ruth the Ruthless Ripper, she's a bit of a toss-up. If you morph her, it's really up to your opponent to read your poker face or block with a creature they don't mind losing to her. If you sit back with a morph, your opponent will just assume the worse and fly over. I think she's redundant in your deck and can be cut for proactive removal instead. -Satyr Wayfinder. Great card here. Good early play to fill your yard and you're pretty likely to hit a land. I'd keep both of them. -Sidisi, Brood Tyrant - Yeah, if you've got 3, play 'em! She's gumming up the groundworks while simultaneously enabling delve. No qualms here. -Siege Wurm. Here's the evasion you need. I think this is a decent choice for you if you've got a few zombies on the ground that can convoke it early. Be warned that as soon as you stick your Become Immense on it, it's going to bait out removal. Keep it in though. -Sultai Soothsayer. - Good as a 1-of. Dig a little, delve a little. the 2/5 body is pretty nice. I wouldn't run more than 2 though. -Terra Stomper. Yeah, go for it. There's that trample, and uncounterable is gravy. Same as Siege Wurm, it's gonna bait that removal. -Singing Bell Strike - This is exactly the removal you don't want. This is designed to allow aggro/tempo decks to get in their last few hits. You want your deck to go late game, and by that time this enchantment is totally outclassed. In fact, I would consider hitting my own creature with it to give it "6: Vigilance." Number one choice for cut. -Sultai Ascendancy - Quite a good card for this deck, and I love that you don't necessarily need to toss anything in the yard if you don't want. The mana cost is tough to get early, so I wouldn't run more than two. -Become Immense- This is your finisher spell, dovetailed with a trampler/flyer. You definitely need to be hitting something with evasion, otherwise it's chump-block town for you. I'm not sold on this spell honestly, and I think you can do better even on a budget. -Empty the Pits - Go for it. Make 11 2/2 zombies. Now you've got a wall of 2/2s. Swing in for the win. (Don't run more than 1) -Sultai Charm - Very versatile, and almost never dead in your hand. Keep it in. -Unmake the Graves - I'm not usually sold on "return target creature from your graveyard" spells in constructed, so I rate this pretty low, but considering you'll have tons of 2/2s on the ground, I think this could often be better than a Raise Dead, so I'd say keep it as a one-of. -Restock - Blegh. 5 mana? I mean, it's nice to hit an instant again, but it's not worth it. You want to be exiling cards to delve, not grabbing them back. Cut it. -Scout the Borders - Nah, this is Satyr Wayfinder's job. You've got better things to do on turn 3. Cut em both. -Taigam's Scheming - Should definitely be Commune with the Gods, which doesn't net you -1 card like Taigam's Scheming does. Cut it for Commune with the Gods. -Garruk, Apex Predator - Great card, keep it. Dungeon Ecology fucked around with this message at 04:22 on Sep 26, 2014 |

Just FYI for you and everyone else who are worried about card prices etc, the EV of this set it currently like $5ish per pack. That is a dollar over MSRP and way way to high. This set can not sustain the prices it currently has once supply opens up. Sorin and Sarkhan are not going to sustain $30, the set is not going to sustain 10+ $5-10 rares etc. in addition to the fetches. Either fetches become $5 or the standard playables are going to come down.

The MTG finance crowd will have a price floor on fetches, 8-10 absolute worst case for fetches, but 12-16 is more reasonable. If a card isn't mythic, it won't hold its price. Even most of those will crater to mythic bulk status. Here's my calls: fetches, sarkhan and 1 mystery card stay in the double digits, everything else tanks.

Sorin's price has more than DOUBLED in a week (106% to be exact). Don't gauge anything on right now prices...we have a VERY limited pool of cards that people are jumping on to get in ahead of the curve, but this set will likely be the most opened set in the past year. The market will be FLOODED with opened Khans cards in 2 weeks time. On the other hand...NOW is the time to be selling the cards you open. I had 2 Sorins and a Sarkhan that I sold this week for $30/ea. and I don't regret it. The only cards I am holding for now are Rattleclaw Mystic, Siege Rhino and Bloodsoaked Champion because I think those cards are stagnant where they are or will go down to level out some.

An LGS is going to be having a win a box tournament on Sunday. Khans block only. it's to drive early sales of products and but lol last time it was won with MBD consisting of mostly uncommons and a couple Nykthos. Anyone have any suggestions on what I could bring? Assume I've gone to enough prereleases to have access to any common/uncommon but no planes walkers. I don't think anyone will be rolling in with a junk midrange deck featuring all 4 sorins but you never know. It's usually just what people were able to grab from prerelease and FNM tomorrow. I was able to get a playset of utter ends and a couple siege big dudes so I'm thinking junk midrange with the morph life linker.

Highlight cards to grab: Siege Rhino and Utter End, as you said Ainok Bond-Kin, first striker lord Abzan Falconer, flyer lord Abzan Charm, uncommon, instant speed +1/+1s Mer-Ek Nightblade, deathtouch lord Armament corps, +1/+1 granter that is a must-have And then any rares: Duneblast, High Sentinels, Ivorytusk Fortress, Anafenza, Ascendancy, Hardened Scales, Herald of Anafenza, Sorin. Make sure to get as many tri-lands and refuges as you can in color. The morph lifelinker is only ok and lifelink in general isn't very necessary unless the other deck is seriously fast. You just get big then smash. Trample is ok for the same reason, but seriously it's just win-more. Also final note: Brave the Sands is a non-bo with Anafenza and Ivorytusk Fortress.
