Thanks to Orpheus124 for giving me some inspiration for this deck. His build is quite different. Check it out here: Bruna's Beatdown

Sweet! I've just realized something though--Vanishing--kinda like Flickerform but for a lower cost!

Orpheus124 I thought about Vanishing. I might use both. The thing with phasing is that the creatures and the auras attached to them don't leave the battlefield, and therefore don't re-enter when phased back in, so Vanishing wouldn't trigger Constellation like I would like it to.

That makes sense--haha, if you're going for Constellation, makes more sense to have real ETB _

Better off with Cloudshift stuff, and Deadeye Navigator if your trying to flicker your commander. So that constilation happens

griffstick I thought about that, but she loses her auras if I use Cloudshift or Deadeye Navigator. She can pick them back up again during my next attack phase, assuming my graveyard doesn't get exiled, but Flickerform is definitely the ideal option.

Yea thats a good one. Is that the direction your going with this deck?

December 25, 2014 1:44 a.m.

NoSoyYucateco says... #8

If it means protecting her or triggering Constellation, yeah, though it's really mostly a voltron deck. I'm going for self-mill with Thassa's Devourer, some polymorph stuff, but mostly just beating the crap out of people with a beefed up Bruna.

Im gonna try to help you out here. Forget, discard 2 enchantments draw 2 cards. Then attack, attaching the discarded enchantments.

Attunement, and Hatching Plans seems like a good idea.

NoSoyYucateco says... #12

For draw, I was trying to go with more permanent stuff, especially auras, like Ophidian Eye, Curiosity, and Righteous Authority, though draw/discard stuff like Forget or Compulsive Research aren't bad. Basically, if it can be done in aura form, I'm trying to do it that way as much as possible, though I also don't want to put all my eggs in Bruna's basket, so to speak.

NoSoyYucateco says... #13

I seriously considered Attunement when I was making this deck. If I go with any extra draw, it will definitely be that, I think. Something I can use and reuse.

I will probably also be adding the Land Tax + Scroll Rack combo when I have the funds too.

I have a B/W artifact deck that kinda sucks. This commander seems like more fun. Im gonna try to build a new B/W edh deck. Thanks for the inspiration @Orpheus124 and TwoMagicDudes.

Bruna is way fun. And you can build a good Bruna deck on a budget, too. The only thing in this deck that's more than a dollar or two are the lands and Eldrazi Conscription. Oh, and Avacyn, Angel of Hope, but you don't need her. Most of the cards in here can be picked up for 25 cents or less.

Hey last thought what about Strionic Resonator lots of things can happen with cards that say "when", "whenever", and "at". Eldrazi Conscription + Strionic Resonator annihilator 2 turns into annihilator 4. And im sure theres lots of other things you can do with this

December 25, 2014 2:34 a.m.

NoSoyYucateco says... #18

Oh yeah! That's a good one. Double draws from Curiosity, double angels from Moonsilver Spear. Good idea!

December 25, 2014 2:36 a.m.

If you're wanting to self-mill, why not throw in a Traumatize and get half your deck's worth of enchants ready for Bruna's next attack? :) Also what do you think of Mesa Enchantress and Kor Spiritdancer?

December 31, 2014 7:43 a.m.

Also Seal of Cleansing instead of Disenchant maybe? If you add Sun Titan, you'd get multiple uses out of it along with other non-aura permanants that happen to hit the yard. Same goes with Soul Snare. Sorry for double post.

Thanks for the recommendations, GeminiSpartanX! I will have to take these under consideration. Anything that can be done in enchantment form definitely works best here, obviously, so I like the stuff that fills the roles that my instants are doing (though they'd be especially handy if I add Leyline of Anticipation.

I don't think I'm going to use Kor Spiritdancer (I just don't think she does quite enough to justify including her in a polymorph build--I'd probably feel let down if I polymorphed into her) but the rest all look good.

For whatever reason I didn't think of Traumatize. I usually associate it with budget modern mill decks XD. It would be great in here though.

I really like the idea of this deck good stuff man so many synergies with all the enchantments, card draw and self mill, very nice protection against GY Exile as well. You also have my most hated card in here Cyclonic Rift haha. Sphere of Safety just cracks me up with this it'd almost be worth fitting in a game winning Planeswalker just to get the ulti off for giggles. Just curious how fast does Bruna get setup for voltroning everyone?

NoSoyYucateco says... #23

Ulturas: Well, with 30 enchantments, not all of which are auras, it's not as fast as you might think without extra draws or self-mill beforehand, but I was able to swing for 14 damage (unblockable) with her on turn 7, and 22 damage on turn 8, in a game today. She's vulnerable to sacrifice, so I might add Assault Suit back in here, though once she has shroud from Greater Auramancy, she can't be equipped any longer.

NoSoyYucateco says... #24

I'd add Planeswalkers, but I have so few creatures that I think in most scenarios they'd be too vulnerable. It just depends on what I can get out before I drop them.

Ulturas says... #25

Still seems pretty solid and a fun kinda deck. Assault Suit would add definitely give you that sac protection as well as an interesting board presence which with Voltron Commanders would be quite funny. Not sure but Academy Rector might be able to pick up its pace?
