A Few Adjustments —Nov. 30, 2016
Took out a few things to experiment with some new cards as well as add in some needed cards
Add
- Alhammarret's Archive this does everything we want to do in here. Extra life gain plus extra card draw is great.
- Arena of the Ancients this card seems bonkers and cutthroat to specific decks. We're not attacking with Ayli often, so we can benefit where others will lose out.
- Ghostly Prison finally got a copy with C16 coming out.
- Restoration Gearsmith might be a little pricey, but it returns creatures and artifacts, which might come in handy.
- Knight of the White Orchid just a better card
- Rings of Brighthearth pulled a masterpiece from a booster pack and this seems like a great card to copy either of Ayli's abilities. Also is bonkers with just about anything: planeswalkers, fetchlands, Righteous Aura, Burnished Hart, Trading Post. Can't wait to kill two players at once with this and Aetherflux Reservoir.
Removed
- Ivory Mask trying this out; this card might not do enough. Roughly depends on the meta
- Kor Cartographer just too slow
- Gift of Immortality too dependent on the board state. I needed something more versatile.
- Soul Warden great 1 drop, but not sure if it can cut it. This is also temporary
- Sorin, Solemn Visitor not directly on theme. Doesn't get me to 50 life very quickly if players don't attack me where I can block.
- Proper Burial extra life gain that is outclassed by Alhammarret's Archive

terribleplayer how did I not know about this? This seems really good. I tried to focus on lots of effects to put creatures right to the battlefield, but that card seems very good.

I have a deck where I combine it with Gempalm Polluter for uncounterable life loss. Good times.

One of my favourite recursion cards is Haunted Crossroads. In addition to be recursion on a stick, it also gives you a little protection from mill.
