Reposing in new thread.

On a budget and stuck between Phyrexian Bae and Saskia as my second deck(my frist is Breya).
I already have a lot of the tools for Atraxia in my Anafenza deck so I feel it's kind of a waste but I love the art and abilities she brings to the table(though her Partners make me sick). Is it worth getting a deck I already practically have or should I go with the dogpile deck instead to try something new?

Also, why is Breya's mana base dogshit? I know it's an artifact deck but for fucking cereal, not one filter or check? That's some bullshit.
>>

Should I try making a pure Samurai deck or mix Samurai with Mardu?
>>
>Implying anyone's actually built Opal-Eye
>>
>>50034824

Even in testing with shocks and such I've been having a little trouble on the manabase with my Breya deck, on the one hand I want to run a low land count like 34-30 cuz it's filled with mana rocks, but even with every signet and talisman colors can be a bit wonky sometimes cuz no green for that sweet fixing
>>
>>50034844
samurai isnt good regardless of which way you build it, so build the kind that you think you will enjoy the most.
>>
>>50034844
Mardu doesn't have the dude that regenerates samurai, though. I'd go Naya unless there's decent black samurai I'm forgetting.
>>
>>50034849

The fucking BEST samurai
>>
>>50034895
He's pretty divergent from an actual samurai list, though. He just does his own thing and happens to be a samurai.
>>
>>50034881

Sigh

Yeah I realize that fetches are actually the key to a working multicolor manabase

Sucks that they are so damn expensive. Even the ally ones are not really what I'm looking for in terms of price range. The enemy ones are absurdly out of reach

I think ABUR deals can be left out if you have the fetches, because fetches make basics work in 4 colors which is pretty amazing because basics fucking suck in 4 colors normally
>>
>>50034911

Samurai don't do anything but have okay combat stats so it's hard to see how anything could be "out of place" in a samurai deck
>>
>>50034955
Well, presumably you're wanting to beat people with samurai. That would be called aggro and regenerating them seems important.
>>
>>50034849
I personally think 30 is too low. Do you have lands like city of brass? Those lands could help with the mana.
>>
>>50034844
How about saskia as the commander with samurias being the bulk of the deck?
>>50034938
Fetches are really good. They really help with mana fixing
>>
>>50034849
>30 lands
Jesus that's too low for any EDH deck. Lowest I've ever gone is Slobad with 34, and I have a shitload of rocks to back it up.
>>
>>50034864
You'd also just want green win cons like Craterhoof Behemoth, Collective Blessing, etc. just to have any hope of winning. Samurai are awful.
>>
>>50035023
I play 30 lands Also as slobad, it works if you make up for it with manarocks, but only then.
>>
>>50035005
I don't like Saskia for the meta she'll bring to the table.

>>50035025
I don't care that much about winning, I normally play a rakdos deck with 0 win conditions.

There's a few lists on MtG Salvation but only one of them seems any good.

>>50035050
How about the partners? Find a combination that works.
>>
>>50035023

I mean I've personally seen decks with 28-30 lands work incredibly well so I can't agree, BUT I think in the case of Breya, somewhere near 34 lands is more appropriate
>>
>>50034990

Yes the list I was testing with 30 lands had city of brass, mana confluence, glimmervoid

The best draws actually involved one of those

>Opinion on the filter lands for the 4 color decks? They seem like they would be useful and I want to buy some before the price goes up

Why would their prices go up? They area old-ass cards finally getting a reprint. That drives prices down...

I already have most of them in my decks. They've been in the $1-5 range.

>>50035147
There's something wrong then. If 5 color decks can do it, then 4 colors can. Can you post list?

Comin over from previous thread, looking for Atraxa inspiration. I saw some other posters talking about Consulate Surveillance which gave me the thought of taking an Energy-counter route. However, looking over the energy cards available, it doesn't look like the optimal route. Aetherworks Marvel and the Modules could have potential, but outside of Standard/Draft, the mechanic seems less efficient than other potential builds.

I had a great time playing with Queen Marchesa (long may she reign) tonight. Some flicker to give myself Monarch when I needed it, enough mana fixing, and I pretty much kept enough answers and threats in my hand to keep people from attacking me and at each other's throats until I could easily take them out. Still a couple of cards I'd like to put in (like Ghostly Prison and Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs) but other than that Queen Marchesa (long may she reign) has been pretty fun.

meta cycle.png
64KB, 800x800px
>>50035645
>>50035546


Ive never understood these hairbrained attempts at fixing a meta. The shifting of powerlevel of a meta is a natural, fluxuating cycle. Fucking with the natural processes does more harm than good. Don't mess with it!

It's like the circle of life in a way.

Decks start out pretty weak and play like battlecruisers, very unfocused or too gimmicky/durdly. This is the TIMMY phase. After the TIMMY phase, a healthy meta begins to experiment with alternate win cons and combos. The JOHNNY phase begins. This is generally the best phase to be in, as deck prices are do-able, and the meta is pretty accepting of all skill levels. Next, an event only known as the ARMS RACE begins, where the meta warps into the SPIKE phase. This is the most dangerous phase, as players can get needlessly salty, and spend extreme amounts on decks. These metas are very inclusive, and actually are a big point in the meta's life. There are two paths that can be taken from here. Either the meta reverts back into TIMMY phase due to the players agreeing to make decks based around jankier commanders/lower power builds, or the meta DIES. The death of a meta doesn't mean all players involved quit magic, just that group stops playing together as an organized meta from this point on.

I attached a diagram, excuse the quality, I'm phoneposting, and I've got gorilla hands.

What if I Storm into a new Cascade? Cascade doesn't care if it comes from the hand. Apparently doesn't even care if you Cascade again.
>Cascade (When you cast this spell, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less. You may cast it without paying its mana cost. Put the exiled cards on the bottom in a random order.)
>5/1/2009 If you cast the last exiled card, you’re casting it as a spell. It can be countered. If that card has cascade, the new spell’s cascade ability will trigger, and you’ll repeat the process for the new spell.

It helps if the people in a playgroup are open minded, willing to consider the fun of the arms race and powerful consistent decks, but also willing to consider making decks that play slower and play more Timmy/Johnny, that way each player understands all the perspectives and nobody is blinded by being only able to see the game the eyes of the spike, or the Johnny, etc

>Shu Yun

Absolutely terrifying to play against. Probably his greatest asset is that he says "Target Creature". Shu Yun can double strike for insane damage with a single prowress trigger, your Gisela can wipe someone off the face of the earth because you countered the defender's removal spell, or any creature on the field can get double strike.

You just don't see him nearly as often as every other jeskai commander because Narset exists.

Obviously. If you cascade into a spell that has cascade itself, it will trigger again, but doesn't do anything with Storm. If you want things to cascade reliably, you cast from hand, since Yidris only applies for those spells.

this is just my opinion, but cards like spine of ish and scour from existence are trash. don't bother with 1-for-1 artifact/enchantment removal in monoblack. instead, put in your staple tutors and then some mass removal. nevi disk, all is dust, the new boompile, etc. then clear the board whenever the non-creature bullshit gets too obnoxious. and since you're monoblack and they're not, they'll probably gas out and you probably won't.

>>50038104
Anything that is fun to play, really.
I don't plan to compete or anything, just play with friends who have really budget decks.
One creature I thought would be really cool to build around is Mizzix of the Izmagnus, but I'm open to any suggestions.
>>50038083
Hey, that looks like it would be fun, too.
>>
>>50037998
best budget options are:

build-around commanders like :

edric, spymaster of trest is a mega-spike, mega-budget option since all you need is tiny flying evasion dudes that no other deck wants and some counterspells and then some cheap goodstuff to win with (pathbreaker ipex, overwhelming stampede, triumph of the hordes)

a fun option would be zada, hedron grinder, who similar to edric only requires goofy power buffs, token generation and targeted cantrips. you use those dumb cards to one-shot the table. cheap as fuck and fun too

you can also build cheaper colors, like monoblack, which is also pretty cheap and strong. it might not be the best idea for a first deck because your answers to artifacts and enchantments range from "welp" to "destroy everything on the board, including my own shit"

rakdos and monored are also pretty cheap, but not the most top-tierest of colors

the most expensive colors are probably UGx, and they're the best colors too, who woulda thunk it. manafixing is expensive in general, so i'd stay away from tri-color decks (they're boring anyway)
>>
>>50036970
Jeskai has fuck all for commanders in general. The only thing they really have going for them is Narset, which is shit to play against.

>>
>>50038645

>>
>>50038513
There's Ruhan and Zedruu but people say they're too gimmicky to the bad end of the spectrum. And Narset is just too damn boring and linear.

>>50038757
Rakdos one.
>>
>>50038645
Really depends on the rubinia. Brago plays differently than Rubinia, so tweaking from there, it's gonna end up goodstuff-y. At least that kind of feeling I get.
>>
>>50035838
I've wanted to build jeskai for a while now, I think he's a solid choice. Do I just build a cantrips deck and swing with him twice after pumping him in some way, or is there something I'm missing? Seems good, but not Uril good.
>>
>>50038645
Brago is a combo engine so it's a little different. I don't know if rubina would be a straight upgrade, but at least you would have access to different tech. Most brago lists are relatively samey and I find he's pretty powerful and consistent of built correctly. Now, the critical weakness is how easy he is to blow up, so if that's frustrating I suggest just building whatever you like.
>>
>>50038804
>>50038842
Since Brago relies on blink I though of going from blink to steal and then blink to get etbs for me/steal permanently. Also access to green helps to ramp which has been though on just UW on budget. My wincons were Elocutors (I had some protection and tap down stuff) and Brago voltronized. I'll whip up a list tonight when I get home and post here to see what I could change.
>>
>>50035319
>these will never be reprinted as a normal rare and not as that fucking stupid Turbo Rare thing they've done
>>
>>50038895
If you're hellbent on stealing, I would pick Merieke instead, for blinking I would have Roon.
Keep in mind that redudnancy is good in decks, but if you just focus on stealing with Rubinia, you won't accomplish much. You're better off just using clones from opponent's creatures.
Roon is pretty close to Brago, so all is not lost with him.

Sure man, I'd love to take a look when you finish up. Spicy tech for your deck either way is palace jailer, identity thief and ninth bridge patrol. Throw in a phryexian ingester and a duplicant and you're going to Fuck people's day right up. Elvish Piper might be worth it in Rubina as well.

>Zedruu is too gimmicky

It's actually a fairly strong pillowfort deck. You give people shit like this to draw into your win combos. Eldritch Moon was very kind to Zedruu she got a functional reprint of Donate.

What does /EDH/ think of WE WUZ GAYZ 'N SHEIT? I think they can work pretty well since they also draw you cards. Pretty nifty how the deck comes with all the nice pillowfort cards except for Dissipation Field.

also a 3 hit kill with assault formation

I've tried Roon and didn't really like how he plays. It's probably a better choice though. Also yeah I'd go clones but saince I'm building the deck with cards I have plus some budget stuff I don't think I can dedicate much to that.

>>50038920

My Rubinia deck uses a lot of temporary steal effects (Rubinia, Overtaker, Reins of Power) and then trades them to other players with pic related, or keep them forever with Cloudshift and Conjurer's Closet.

I hadn't considered populate, but it seems pretty good with Dance, Progenitor Mimic, Saheeli's Artistry and the like. Sweet tech, anon.
>>
>>50041204
Funny enough, I added that to my Trostani deck! It's mainly a lifegain deck, and I decided to use "big tokens" as a subtheme (since my Ghave deck goes wide, I wanted this one to go tall), and I ended up adding a few "make a copy of things" artifacts to have fun tokens to populate. Notably Mimic Vat and Blade of Selves.
>>
>>50035836
I think this is a really great model that I have seen occur a few times with different groups I've played in. The pivotal moment is when the arms race of the spike phase reaches an apex and the group has to have a sobering conversation that makes or breaks the group. The groups needs to talk about why the game isn't fun (or as much fun) anymore and sometimes its because one or two people are outspending the rest of the group or just because someone is a playing an inherently "unfun" or oppressive strategy. I've had groups where I realized I was the problem in one group because I tend to get a little too spikey and when my group confronted me about it I agreed to tone it down. I found the most fun in trying to push inherently sub-optimal strats so I'd end up with a net-medium power deck. I still pull out one of my good old decks from time to time but the table acknowledges that those games I'm the "villain" and it plays out like archenemy.
>>
Can I get some help on this deck.

I'm trying to make a fairly powerful deck for a new playgroup and I want to try UG Rashmi control/elfball.

>>50042149
you are correct, those are Legion sleeves.

The "worst" I've ever seen was a kid playing a Dragon deck with dragon-scale sleeves. After about 5 minutes I realized they weren't dragon scale sleeves- they were brown sleeves, onto which he had sloppily drawn dragon scales with black sharpie. Every sleeve.

This is the correct answer. My group has 2 players who refuse to alter their decks. One refuses to buy cards unless he drafts them, the other only plays precons or 60 card intro decks. They are the ones who came up with this idea as it will, in their mind, even the playing field. I know my group is shit but I live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere so its either play or no group

Oh, it was a neat CONCEPT, but it was done badly. And my main concern is that it was done so badly that no two sleeves really looked remotely the same, pattern-wise, so there was a serious "marked cards" problem in the mix.

Reminds me of the time I sat down across from a dude in his 20s who had sleeved all of his lands in brown sleeves and his other cards in sleeves that matched their colors and didn't understand why that wasn't allowed.

I'm returning to magic after a long time and I finally cobbled together my first commander deck. I'm still a bit rusty on the 2010 and later rule changes however.

>>50042554
The nearest card shop is 50 miles away, they have occasional commander tourneys but they're mostly just 2 player tiny leaders.

And the whole place gives me the vibe that they wouldn't really have too much patience to deal with folks like me, though I'm sure I would adapt quickly. I mostly want to refine my decklist more, because I'm still not quite sure about what tempo I'll have to adjust to for a commander game, how many low cost vs high cost spells, how much heat will I be eating from removal spells and whatnot.

How do you feel about unglued/unhinged cards?
http://www.strawpoll.me/11547207
>>
>>50041050
you should probably put in creature tutors and more utility fatties like hellkite tyrant and bane of progress. i believe i told you the last time that just plain old beaters are kinda weak with xenagos. the point of xenagos is that you can give haste to anything, so you can instantly get effects off stuff like balefire dragon, godo, and so on. focus on strong ETBs and strong "when this creature attacks/deals" combat damage. i don't want to micromanage your deck but just cut the most bland fatties and add some more utility stuff and maybe draw and it'll probably be better

good shit you missed in addition to tutors and draw:

>selvala's stampede
>godo + good equipments (typically at least loxodon and skullclamp)
>siege behemoth
>archetype of endurance

if you really wanna go top heavy and make people mad, you can go mega battlecruiser with fatty cheat effects (elvish piper, deathrender, garruk, tooth and nail) and then add some ridiculous fatties like blightsteel colossus, pathrazer of ulamog and so on
>>
>>50044252
what

you should definitely never play illegal cards unless you ask your group if they mind beforehand
>>
>>50044260
>>50041050
also you might want some more pump spells too, depending how you want to play your deck. i mostly with my xenagos when i take the board down with an extra combat or a pump or something like that. temur battle rage and relentless assault are good ways to pump up your dood (world at war is kinda poopy since you should never need the extra combat)

They can occasionally be funny, but it's something you need clearance for ahead of time. Not a warning of "Hey, I have un-cards", but confirming that it's okay before you even slot them in. Like, have a few Un-cards set aside that you slot in, in place of specific other cards, in case they say no.

>>50044766
You would probably want to avoid ramp spells that can only get you 1 basic land type, like skyshroud claim.

You're better off with things such as rampant growth, search for tomorrow, and the artifact land ramp like wayfarer's bauble because they're much more versitile

39 lands, 4 ramp spells, and 6 mana rocks
>>
>>50044847
Yeah, I used to have arguments with a friend in a VASTLY different meta because he had a seething hatred for land-based ramp and always wanted me to put in way more rocks, whereas I thought his decks were nuts because he would lose 30% of his mana sources to an errant Austere Command were he in my area.

So, let me amend that: I'd advise swapping a fair few of those rocks for ramp spells, unless you have a lot of MLD, in which case adjust for taste.

>>50044862
Skyshroud Claim can find shocks. That's pretty good in a 4 color deck.
>>
>>50044875
That's a good point didn't think about the shocks, kor cartographer and night of the white orchid could also be used to find plains shocks in the same way, plus you'll probably have a deadeye navigator in their anyway for that manta ray

I ordered all five commander 2016 decks. I think I will keep the Breya and the Yidris deck and take the rest apart to build decks with less colors, probably BU and WG.
What will you do with yours?
>>
I feel like I want to cut exsanguinate out of my recur/lifegain deck. am I retarded? my gut says that there isn't much value in casting a sorcery for 7 mana to gain 15 life when i can cast a recur spell on kokusho to gain the same amount for less, and also trigger a bunch of sac/ltb effects

i guess exsanguinate scales better to the mega late game so i guess there's that?

Cascading Ogre and Metal Waifu are objectively the best.

Wizards really wants me to build a cascade deck: Maelstrom Wanderer reprint, Rashmi and now Boner Ogre.

Dang!

So I have not paid attention to the new deck at all, which one is the best?
>>
>>50045472
none of them are great but the cascading one is probably the best (afaik?)
>>
>>50045501
are any of them even close to being worth the money?
>>
>>50045608
look at the decklists and figure out if you want like 70% of the cards there. if you don't, don't bother
>>
>>50045608
you can buy the singles in the decks for less than the MSRP of the decks IIRC.
>>
>>50045608
Strictly technically speaking, they add up to around 120-150 dollars of singles.

However, the vast majority of that is "dollar" junk rares.

Alright EDH General I need some advice what strategies does Karn fit in best I am having trouble deciding what deck I should slot him in.
Decks are as follows
Melek Chaos (probably soon to be retired)
Pheldagrif: Group hug
Karametra GW: Litterally a timmies wet dream (probably soon to be dismantled or heavily reworked)
Sliver Overlord: Literally every sliver edh deck minus queen and legion
Marith Beast Tribal: Literally a prebuilt I was given as a gift and turned it into tribal.
Mormir Vig/Ezuri Evolve & Sage of Hours Deck:
>inb4 blue green is easymode it absolutely is

Idk maybe karn could slot into a artifact edh I have had on backburner for a while but it is nowhere near finished.
>>
>>50045901
it's good for monoblack at least

How do you actually win with hugbox decks? If everyone is playing to win aren't you just sitting there doing nothing?
>>
>>50046075
It's good in elf decks. I have it in Ezuri.
>>
>>50037862
Guy in my group used creature karn to make artifacts into creatures and wrath/doom blade them, although it was kind of janky.
>>
>>50046075
It's good if you can regularly have two or more creatures on the battlefield. I would want one if it weren't for the price tag.
>>
>>50046244
But time to assemble combo pieces and blow someone the fuck out
>>
>>50046244
you have to build in come combo that wins the game when you get it
>>
As an experienced magic player with the vast majority of reprints in this set, convince me why I should bother with this set of precons.

In my opinion, everyone would be much better off just buying whatever singles you like from the set and saying Fuck it to this mechanical jank-a-thon. I literally don't know who these decks are for. New players won't get it, turbo autists will roll their eyes, tweener players already have all these reprints. Seems silly.
>>
>>50046306
I was asking because I got one for cheap so I was just seeing where it'd be best.
I play Rith and Sigarda so I assume either is good.
>>
>>50046244
I fucking hate this card art. I want to burn all of them.
>>
>>50046244
That prebuilt commander performs similarly to most grouphug decks in that its main win cons are A: Commander damage & B: Mass Draw spells such as prosperity when you have double mana with things like a dictate of karametra.
>>
>>50046379
It's one of the most powerful lands ever printed that synergizes with having creatures. You're not gonna go wrong having it in anything.

The new commanders seem fun
>>
>>50046390
Why?
>>
>>50046373
You shouldn't. The decks don't have a competent enough skeleton to use even if you want to build around one of the new commanders, and the new cards are either underwhelming or cheap enough you can just pick them up. If you don't need the reprints, fuck it.
>>
>>50046421
This is also the problem: they don't seem fun at all. How are you supposed to play these janky things without investing in a 4c mana base full of shocks and fetches, which might as well be 5c?
>>
>>50046373
also the fact that non of the good dual lands got a print in any of the sets on top of the fact that chromatic lantern is only in one deck instead of all of them gives me no reason to buy any of them immediately especially when I can still find the meren prebuilts from last year at my local walmarts for around 25 bucks a pop.

Cards are generally bad and most 2016 decks promote controversial playstyles.

Just but singles dude.
>>
>>50046756
2015 decks were the best imo
>>
>>50046756
The cards in the C16 pre-cons are just overall quite sub-par in power.
Add to that the fact that 4 color is literally the hardest kind of EDH deck to make and make well, and it's not a beginner product at all.
If you want to buy a Commander pre-con of any kind, I'd suggest C14 or C15 instead, since those are 1 or 2 color and tend to have a good amount of strong cards.
>>
>>50046910

Those were the shittiest though for sure

The 2014 were the best
>>
>>50046910
Not really. Meren was the only especially good deck. The others ones were mostly shit out of the box. Ezuri was okay too, I guess.
>>
Here's that Rubinia thing I talked about earlier today. Yeah it's mostly junk assembled from what cards I had already, so throw me cheap cards to slot in and tell me what can go out. Or tell me it's bad and to kill myself, whatever floats your skeleton ship.

>>
>>50046932
the out of the box meren deck is pretty shit honestly. the only amazing thing about it were the legendaries
>>
>>50046956
It was decently playable if you're playing them against each other. It supported its own strategy fairly well.
>>
>>50046932
Mizix and Ezuri were pretty good outta the box.

I'm tempted to say that Mizix is the strongest Izzet commander printed since Niv-Mizzle himself.
>>
>>50046976
ezuri blew meren the fuck out right out of the box
>>
>faggot greek commander
>an entire set based on pooping in the streets
>still no loli commander
>>
>>50046985

Mizzix is the best since niv mizzet for sure, but the deck wasn't great, none of them are worth the price at all, the c14 ones were close though, especially the daretti deck
>>
>>50045266

Dude, you're supposed to have Caged Sun or Nirkana Revenant or whatever AND THEN cast Exsanguinate.

If you cast it with no mana doublers on the field it's not gonna kill anyone.
>>
Four color is as consistent as you want it to be.

A two color deck trying to curve nantuko shade into shorecrasher elemental into phyrexian obliterator is going to have worse issues than a four-color deck that has generic mana symbols and a centralized color composition.

People bitch about how much mana bases cost when the reality is that if you're on a budget, it's more efficient to buy cards that don't have conflicting mana costs than it is to jam your deck with every goodstuff card you can find and then hope you have enough money to make the manabase save you. Lands are much more expensive than buying spells that better fit your colors.

There is no denying that fetshocks is the way to go, but this is not directed at those that have the lands. You could easily run a deck with many splashes. For example, if you build a monoish white deck, a plains and a city of brass or a vivid land gives you access to
WW
WR
WG
WU

If you construct a deck in this fashion, a four-color deck feels like a two-color deck. It's not a perfect solution, but do what you can until you can get your fetshocks.
>>
>>50047250
Mainly cause people that bitch are morons that want to be spoonfed or find a way to bitch. There's also the fact that artifacts help and those with green has access to creatures like birds of paradise.
Although i do agree that the precons mana base is not that great, mainly cause the lands enter tapped(which i just plain hate), this doesn't mean that the 4color commanders or partners are unplayable
>>
>>50047250
This method doesn't help you cast your 4 color general on t4 very well, which is the point of a few of them.

If it wasn't for that, you could say to make the decks all artifacts, or monocolor save for the general and it would make it easy on you. But the generals are there, and it does put a strain on the deck. You can't say that these decks are as consistent as you want them to be on a budget when the generals themselves have no generic mana.
>>
>>50046910
There's only one that's playable and the format is over saturated with it.
>>
>>50047462
>mainly cause the lands enter tapped(which i just plain hate)

Tapped hate is absolutely a meme. I've seen way more players lose a game because they refused to play vivid lands than they did because a land came into play tapped.

When you play a tapped land, it may end up slowing down one of your turns. You know what slows you down more than having to cast a four drop on turns 4 and 5? Not being able to cast your 6 drop until you draw the color you need. Commander decks will go off-curve or waste mana at some point in the first five turns of the majority of games anyway, so as long as you run enough lands, you can save your tapped lands for the turns where they aren't a factor.

>>
>>50046661

They're humans alright, not desirable ones for a healthy society though.
>>
>>50047197
true, but consider the following:

if i have a mana doubler, i can also often just use corpse dance and bounce kokusho through various zones and kill everyone, all the while triggering grave pact, smothering abomination, blood artist, etc. etc.

and if i use a exsanguinate with 22 mana, there's a big chance that someone will decide to counterspell it.

that won't really happen if i just play a ton of goodstuff cards right out of my hand, and since i'm playing monoblack i'm in no danger of ever gassing out

the thing exsanguinate has going for it is that it ignores board state, for good and bad. it doesn't make your board better, but it also doesn't care if your board is bad. i guess that's the good thing about it. even a 7 mana exsanguinate can save your ass in a pinch sometimes, that's 15 life.
