Retooling some power levels —Aug. 6, 2019
The opportunity to sell ABU duals came up, and I've been wanting to tweak the power level a bit.
Cuts:
- Taiga
- Volcanic Island
- Tropical Island
- Forgotten Cave
- Tranquil Thicket
- Lonely Sandbar
- Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger
- Verdurous Gearhulk
- Siege Behemoth
- Kiora's Follower
- Time Reversal
Add:
- Karplusan Forest
- Shivan Reef
- Reflecting Pool
- Mana Confluence
- Cinder Glade
- Sheltered Thicket
- Echo of Eons
- Garruk Wildspeaker
- God-Eternal Rhonas
- Scourge of the Throne
- Ilharg, the Raze-Boar
Mostly this is just continuing the eternal quest to never play a land that CIP tapped if I can help it, while also selling off the ABU duals and taking the opportunity to grab a few more foils for the deck. Creature-wise, I wanted to try out the untap ability from Garruk Wildspeaker over the more flexible, but slower Kiora's Follower ability, which really only shines if I have a Mana Vault or Ancient Tomb in play.
Ilharg, the Raze-Boar seems fun as well, and I got tired of having Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger getting targeted by [card:Bribery] every chance someone got. I don't need the effect that badly - the deck has more efficient ways to ramp, you can't cascade into him, and he just turns you into a giant must-kill target right away.
Time Reversal updated to Echo of Eons - it's a fun effect, and filling your hand up is nice.
Other updates are just new foils I picked up.
