Why Not Karador

Because Birthing Pod + Felidar Guardian are legal in EDH and having 3 CMC in the Command Zone gives us vast potential to end the game on the spot. Birthing Pod can often be our least mana intensive rout to Victory. Due to the sheer number of combos in this deck it is Absolutely Vital to understand the best lines of play at any given board state.

This is meant to be a fast combo build looking to win by playing our extremely low curve and out-valuing and out-pacing our opponents. There are more than a dozen combo lines to try for with some being obviously more effecient than others. With the amount of tutors we always want to take the cleanest and fastest lines of play, so it is very important to know all of our many interactions.


Sidar/Tymna operates on a # of multicard combos, I will try to make this info as clear as possible. We need these 3 stars to align for victory.


•1st)• We need any sac outlet.

- Altar of Dementia - (also a finisher).

- Blasting Station - (also a finisher).

- Cartel Aristocrat -.

- Carrion Feeder -.

- Viscera Seer -.


•2nd)• Combine one of the above with any of the following Loops.

- Academy Rector (grabbing Pattern of Rebirth)-.

- Pattern of Rebirth (on any creature)-.

- Boonweaver Giant (grabbing Pattern of Rebirth )-.

- Protean Hulk -.

- Recruiter of the Guard (trickier lines of play but doable depending on game state)-.

- Sun Titan + Animate Dead + Karmic Guide -.

- Sun Titan + Dance of the Dead + Karmic Guide -.

- Sun Titan + Necromancy + Karmic Guide -.

- Sun Titan + Animate Dead + Renegade Rallier -.

- Sun Titan + Dance of the Dead + Renegade Rallier -.

- Sun Titan + Saffi Eriksdotter -.

- Sun Titan + Angelic Renewal -.

- Sun Titan + Fiend Hunter -.

- Saffi Eriksdotter + Renegade Rallier -.

- Saffi Eriksdotter + Karmic Guide + Reveillark -.

- Renegade Rallier + Angelic Renewal -.

- Karmic Guide + Reveillark -.


•3rd)• and Finally the Finisher's.

- Zulaport Cutthroat -.

- Cruel Celebrant -.

- Blood Artist -.

- Altar of the Brood -,

- Altar of Dementia - (also a sac outlet).

- Blasting Station - (also a sac outlet).


There are a few spell based sacs as well for a one shot,

- Life's Legacy -,.

- Diabolic Intent -,.

- Altar of Bone -,.

- Eldritch Evolution ,.

(these are good with Boonweaver, Protean Hulk, or Pattern of Rebirth to start a combo).
