Illness in the Ranks?

I've had it in before but it always felt horrible to draw in multiples. It also really didn't do much to stop whatever threat my opponent played themselves. But perhaps it could come back as a 2 of.

Hey man! long time no talk. How you been? :P

I've been really busy with school, but after somehow managing to get my girlfriend into magic I've been back into deck making. Annnnnnd I realized something scary.

Panharmonicon doesn't only double your etb effects... it also doubles the effects of any permanent with "whenever a creature enters the battlefield. On regular conditions, a blood seeker plus phantasm would only deal 5 damage. Panharmonicon not only doubles the amount of tokens phantasm gives, but it doubles the procs from blood seeker. That's right, add only one panharmonicon and that's 20 damage just from a blood seeker and a phantasm. shudders

I've been working on other decks, but this discovery compells me to rethink Salt sisters :D Im looking at a more original, 4 colour approach cause my UW control was just unpractical tbh. Cya around!

going back to the original 4 color? i can respect that. thats what my hard copy version of the deck is. i was also looking to get a few copies of Panharmonicon for that exact reason.

I posted my rough idea on my page :P It's really unbalanced yet (and landbase is unfinished) but we'll see what it can do. Things like thoughtseize and counters are probably going to be more prominent.

Thoughts on Collected Company?

i have yet to actually test CoCo. i'm currently testing Panharmonicon in the 4 drop slot. so many good cards. not enough slots. Ugghhh. but personally i don't like CoCo without at least 24-26 creatures. so i'd like to add some more before i play it.

I guess if collected company manages to hit 2 phantasms it would be game. It sounds pretty good. I might try it in my list, but I guess of hunted troll was 3 mana it would be a hell of a lot better.

Hey! I see that update... I never even knew essence warden existed! Seems to be coming along... I noticed you got rid of mainboard mercy killing. It costs three mana which sucks, but keep in mind that the whole deck is built around getting bonuses from giving your opponents creatures, and forbidden orchard/ hunted phantasm might not be enough for it to be worthwhile. Also, remember that blood artist is only really good if you can actually kill your opponent's tokens... I've been working on some other projects recently, but hey, I might take another go at this list :P

Hey man, I just saw the Amonkhet spoilers and saw something that may be an auto-include here... Trespasser's Curse So Basically, it's a blood artist that A) doesn't need to kill the creatures, and B) doesn't die to creature removal or board wipes.

If it doesn't appear here (maybe if the card hasn't been added to tapped out yet) I'll explain it's effects. 1 black mana, 1 colorless. Enchantment player. Whenever creature enters battlefield of enchanted player, that player loses 1 life and you gain 1.

So uhh... yeah! It seems good here!

aholder7 One card that would be phenomonal with this deck is a Panharmonicon. This would cause Hunted Phantasm to make ten goblins instead of five, also, this would cause Blood Seeker for example, to trigger twice as well, making twenty instant damage to the opponent. And that is just with the Blood Seeker.

This deck isn't actually up to date with a lot of my changes I believe my paper copy does have pan harmonicon. I'll try and update this soon
