It used to be in here for a long time. I noticed that it seems to draw hate in my playgroup (as weird as that is) because they don't like it when someone gets more than 3 life counter dice. I ended up cutting it for an equipment because ultimately the better I can voltron, the faster this deck is. The archive also doesn't make the infinite life drain combo with Exquisite Blood any faster. I'm not saying Alhammarret's Archive is a bad card. It's just that my deck is centered slightly more on voltron to win than Life Drain, which I use to stay alive and as a back up win condition.

I see that you have Underworld Connections while I do love that card I am more of a fan for Necropotence in a deck with a good bit of life gain. Yet just another suggestion you do have a really nice black/white commander

I have had my eye on Necropotence for a while. I really should get one.

It is a good card

What a beautiful deck! And I wholeheartedly agree, she is one sexy centennial! I'm stumped at suggestions, and I usually always have something to offer - so good on ya!

Cliffhaven Vampire also combos with Exquisite Blood. It is honestly the best of the 4 since it says each and thereby gets around hexproofed players.

Confused, how does Hedron Archive make here an 11/11? Oh you mean Hedron Matrix. Also, a lot of people are using the word "ramp" on here and I don't think that word means what you guys think it means. Oreskos Explorer, Land Tax and the like are not ramp cards, they are strictly mana-fixing as they don't put the lands into play and require you to be behind on mana anyways. Just a PSA.

It is Matrix. Thank you for pointing out that typo. Those are two radically different artifacts.

Lol yup they are haha np.

Did you see my above comment on Cliffhaven Vampire?

Voltron3030 says... #12

Yes, thank you for your input. He is in my maybe board now. I need to look through my collection and see if I have one. Another trigger for infinite would definitely help my odds of winning and a 2/4 flyer is never bad either.

viperfang4 says... #13

I actually pull him more often than any other thing to go with Exquisite Blood just because he is harder to avoid, costs the least mana of all of them, and the trigger can start off of him entering while a soul sister is out.

Renegade Map just came out, Walking Atlas is always good, you might like Reaper from the Abyss in your creatures, Yahenni's Expertise just came out, Liliana of the Dark Realms helps with grabbing swamps, Endless Horizons grabs plains, Thawing Glaciers is the only fetch land that goes back to your hand, Gilded Lotus is good despite the mana sink, Sorin Markov pings someone to ten, Tree of Perdition too, Hell's Caretaker, Champion of Stray Souls, and Debtors' Knell all grab creatures from your grave regularly, Dark Confidant is like phyrexian arena in a way, Vow of Duty and Vow of Malice could be nice on teysa, Entangler is ridiculous on her, Conqueror's Flail would be good too, and I will come up with more stuff later, that's enough for now.

Another land that you could add is a Rogue's Passage. Gives one of your creatures unblockable for aturn. Drawback to it is that you tap four mana for it.

I am confused, what is your angel synergy? Or demons...

January 29, 2017 4:47 p.m.

Voltron3030 says... #17

There's not any. It's just sort of the theme I envision with the deck. Plus, more hubs more views.

enpc says... #18

"more hubs, more views" is not a good reason for incorrectly tagging a deck. "Orzhov" or "lifegain" are two hubs you could have easily tagged which are actually in line with the deck.

Those are probably more fitting

cool i like it yeah the only thing i see is adding Mox Opal, Mox Pearl, Chrome Mox,Mox Jet and Mana Crypt to speed things up in your early game but if you don't compete they are not necessary and quite expensive. Blade of Selves that could really help you hitting more then one player at a time or getting extra effects out of creatures with etb effects, if you equipped this on Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite for example in 4 player game that is 4 Elesh Norns sure you don't keep them because of the legendary rule and u still keep the original and probably just board whipped everyone and you are untouched.Sculpting Steel would benefit this deck as well Beacon of Unrest could be a nice addition as well and since you are white, black Treasury Thrull is fantastic. other poss.Etched Champion, Armory Automaton and Whispersilk Cloak.

In case you weren't sure, none of those cards mentioned by the previous poster should be in this deck. It really needs no explanation but Teysa is not a competitive general and you shouldn't build EDH decks to be uber-competitive pseudo vintage.

golgariizzet says... #22

EternalBrewmaster those cards are plenty good and i don't play competitive i don't run mox anything or mana crypt. i even stated that they are not necessary and everything else is good and would be great in a tron deck. see you based what you posted off your opinion and that is fine but i just gave a few options and let this person decide because in reading his description this what i thought and is my opinion. don't shoot down other people because of what you think just give your ideas and be done with it man.

February 18, 2017 4:01 p.m.

I wasn't stating that they aren't good, just that they don't belong in the deck. First of all, people shouldn't play competitive EDH except 1v1, and shouldn't try to kill a single player ASAP in a game because that's a poor long-term strategy, rude, and will leave that person feeling really unhappy and left out for a long time while the game continues. Also, the owner of this deck said he wasn't looking for expensive options and many of your suggestions were expensive. Many of the other cards you mentioned are just not good enough most of the time for high-level EDH. They are good in some situations and in metas where nobody is playing spot removal, but without addressing each one, I just blanket said they weren't worth it. My opinion is based on thousands of games played over 7 years of almost exclusively playing EDH and brewing 27+ decks among other things. What is yours based on?

Is there anything wrong with playing pod cEDH, no, there is an entire list on here dedicated to discussing it and is easily the most popular page on tappedout. It just depends if everyone present is ok woth it. EDH, is not fun unless everyone's decks are roughly on the same level. This is a mostly casual list to play in fairly casual pods. The goal is to have fun. Moxes are banned in edh btw, so you have not seen the banlist. And your other cards are ok for a casual deck but have issues. The only decent suggestion was elesh norn, which is ok in price. The rest are not that great of equipments as legend rule breaks one of them, the returning artifact ones are not that helpful for their mana, and whispersilk gives shroud which means no more equipping equipment to it after that.

February 18, 2017 7:27 p.m.

Elesh Norn wasn't even a suggestion as it's already in the deck. Yeah I hadn't even noticed that he suggested the OG moxen, that's hilarious.
