Invisible Stalker is almost as good some times better than blighted agent

Well the invisible stalker has hexproof so in a spot removal heavy meta its a good alternative and it is unblockable to so commander damage will add up quick. I'd run both just in case

Is there a reason for not running Consuming Aberration or Lord of Extinction for buffing Mimeo?

Those cards would have to fill the ability buff rather than the power and toughness buff for Mimeo, and I don't think they're like strong enough or worth it to replace any cards for :P Thanks for the suggestions though !!

Torrent Elemental also lets Mimeo swing wide, plus he is reusable.

Also, I fail to see how using Doomgape and Dreadnought for 10/12 counters on Mimeo is better than using Lord of Extinction and Consuming Aberration for 5 times as much. But, that's your prerogative.

Probably does not realize that those 2 power/toughness is still determined by their abilities. Also, Torrent Elemental is a beast in my Urborg School for Mimes.

I'll consider Torrent Elemental thanks :) and I won't be using conssuming or extinction because they would fill Mimeo's ability slot just to have good power / toughness whereas I could be using the ability slot for like an unblockable infect or something, thanks for viewing though ! :D and I'm not sure why that is pviollier, maybe check out some forums online as they have plenty of info on this sort of stuff !

Just in case you weren't understanding.. A common tactic with Mimeo is to pick two creatures out of the graveyard. One, he becomes a copy of, like Blighted Agent. That means he gets all the abilities and base P/T of the one creature. The second creature, like Lord of Extinction only supplies +1/+1 counters. So you basically get, say a Blighted agent with 50 +1/+1 counters. It doesn't remove any abilities. That's what makes Mimeo so good.

noah_sealy says... #16

oh ok, would it still apply even if Lord of Extinction doesn't have the ability?

rob_shifflett says... #17

When would it not have it?

March 2, 2015 5:36 p.m.

nagonjin says... #18

Yes. One creature supplies the body, the other creature is the counters. What I meant to ask above is if you have to exile a creaure for the counters, why pick Death's Shadow over Lord of Extinction. DS gives whatever creature Mimeo copies 13 counters. Since Lord of Extinction has a CDA (Characteristic Defining Ability), his P/T is still calculated regardless of whether he is in play or in the graveyard. It is always equal to the total number of card in the yard. Therefore, you choose between getting 13 counters (Death's Shadow) for free or getting 50 counters for free. The creature you pick to give counters does not affect the body of the creature Mimeo clones.

I'm not sure what you mean by LoE lacking an ability, but yes he is a common win condition in Mimeo decks.

alright, i missunderstood that ahaha, I'll definetly be adding in Consuming Aberration and Lord of Extinction , that'll get some crazy power on mimeo ! Thanks !!

I just posted up my own Mimeo deck a few minutes ago and a piece I think you might be missing is the lowly Putrid Imp This little fella has sped up my own deck so much as he is a fast discard engine, flying commander blocker and just a cute little zombie imp to boot! Just a suggestion.

noah_sealy says... #21

That does seem like something I've been missing ! Thanks ! I'll consider fitting it in to the deck :D

March 3, 2015 9:31 p.m.

Interesting deck. +1

Remove Spellbook and Animate Dead. Add Putrefax and Survival of the Fittest. Spellbook is useless without more than 8 or 9 (major) draw spells, you only have 5. Animate Dead is counterproductive, I know you have fatties and wincons that would be great turn 2, but how often does that happen? You want to be able to put creatures into the graveyard (like Putrefax) to target with The Mimeoplasm, and Survival of the Fittest is great for that.

If you need any more ideas, this is an ultra-competitive Mimeoplasm combo deck I made, The Slimy Druid of Death.
