Just a suggestion, I would remove all the changelings from the list, except leave one or two of the best ones such as Mirror Entity. Anyone can just run a search for cards with the world "changeling" in its rules text once they know that the keyword exists. Many of the changelings on the list contribute nothing aside from the fact they happen to be whichever creature type you're trying to build around.

dude. I wish I could upvote your deck more than once. I've lost count of how many times this list has inspired me, or helped me out. You rock! Stay frosty!

What I did with all the changeling creatures is build a 5 color lord deck. 20 some lords and 20 changelings with Sliver Overlord as the general so he can tutor out any changeling I want. Also gain control of any creature with Amoeboid Changeling.

Unfortunately, this list is for cards that work for any tribe.

The kind of list(s) that would like those would be the two by Legendxp:
Part 1
Part 2

Engineered Plague??

It's the older enchantment-version of Plague Engineer which you already have listed

I guess it's more anti-tribal than tribal deck-build, but idk - you can decide if it belongs on the list or not.

Apollo_Paladin - I have Plague in the SB. I put Engineer in the main since it's a creature, but I should probably be consistent and move it to the SB as well.

I believe I've met your challenge.

Jodah, Archmage Eternal.

He himself isn't a tribal card, but when you pair him with Morophon, the Boundless, you can drop your creatures for free. That combo is for sure a necessary inclusion in 5-color tribal decks.

Lightningtow - Unfortunately, very good synergy does not qualify for this list.

Keep up the searching though :)

Tajuru Paragon . Helps with a few different tribes, anyway. Mistwalker and Orvar, the All-Form are changelings.

Thank you for creating this and updating it, by the way. I used to try to make tribal work a ton, even if only in casual, and I recognize how huge a resource this is for people who just need a few changelings to round out the decklist.

@Sorin_Markov_1947 - Well that's embarrassing :P I guess I forgot to go back through KHM once it was fully spoiled (and uploaded to TO).

Thank you for the kind words :D

It's my pleasure to keep this up to date.
