Sarcasm is hard to transfer over the Internet.

There needs to be a universal /sarcasm font.

generally that's why I put :P at the end of not serious comments.

Serious flipside though, do you know what you're going to take out for awesome tutor?

For testing purposes, I'm replacing Diabolic Revelation but actually removing it feels almost blasphemous...

If anything, i wouldn't take out Diabolic Revelation for it. In my opinion Revelation is better, as you one have to pay more to get the exact same effect without discarding your hand. While you stated that discarding your hand is more preferred in this deck, I guarantee there will be times you'd rather not discard it over searching for three cards. For example, say you already have your one combo pieces in hand and Behold the beyond. You want to get the other combo piece. It is far too dangerous to play one piece without the other.

I still think you should put the tutor in, I'm just saying you shouldn't take out revelation for it.

Also, what do you think about the new Drownyard Temple?

It works with Dust Bowl and with urborg out it also works with Lake of the Dead and Strands of Night.

It works with neither Lake of the Dead, nor Strands of Night. Both of those specify swamp. Drownyard temple is not a swamp

"With Urborg" it does work.

enpc think I'm going to cut Eye of Ugin for it. It also works with discarding and then getting it back.

@Mastertoa If you look closely, Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth was mentioned in the post. So under the right conditions, it does work with those cards.

On the topic of Behold the Beyond, I think it's worth it. Discard stuff and then reanimate it all back with whatever I tutor for, and that's assuming I don't just combo off.

My apologies, read it too fast I guess.

What do you guys think about Mind Stone, Grim Monolith, Mana Vault and Basalt Monolith?

Trtl says... #13

Mind Stone is junk but I don't know about the rest. Sorry I couldn't help more!

CuteSnail says... #14

Trtl mind stone is the only one on that list that can be refunded later game, once it's use has been deadened.

Trtl says... #15

Huh, I didn't think of it like that. I guess I helped even less then I thought.

I like Mind Stone and Basalt Monolith out of those.

Mind Stone since you need the semi-consistent ramp, and the card draw is nice.

Basalt Monolith because the mana battery is useful, and it can go infinite with Rings of Brighthearth

CuteSnail says... #17

For the time being I added Grim Monolith in the place of Mind Stone.

What do y'all think of Asylum Visitor?

I like it.

It looks great, I was thinking I'd grab one myself. I can't remember if I've posted it already, but here is my liliana deck. Liliana, Defiant Flipwalker

I want to test out Ever After. It's seems expensive, but powerful.

March 30, 2016 12:26 p.m.

CuteSnail says... #22

Yep, tested it out yesterday with a turn 1 Vampiric Tutor, Grim Monolith is awesome. It allowed a turn 4 Sidisi, Undead Vizier into Cabal Coffers so I could pay for the untap as needed. It was fun.

Sounds like fun. :D

I'm thinking about constructing this commander, and I like the deck list you've come up with. Currently I run Gisa: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/gisa-a-girl-with-a-shovel/ I have access to the following, and wondered if you'd run them, and what you'd cut: Imperial Seal, Grim Tutor, Bazaar of Baghdad, Diamond Valley.

Thanks,-Chris

VonClause to clarify, you're going to buy my deck list and attempt to add the noted cards? Because your Gisa deck already runs them.

The Imperial Seal is good. You can probably cut Batterskull as it isn't too relevant to the combo route. And Bazaar of Baghdad might be worth it if you focus more on Reanimation. The other two is iffy.
