if you really want to protect Daxos as much as you can, you need more pillow fort cards. stuff like Norn's Annex , Propaganda , Sphere of Safety if you're running a lot of enchantments, etc.

If you have Rapid Hybridization , might wanna run Pongify as well...

also needs more Storm Crow

also also Bident of Thassa

Sword of Feast and Famine would be helpful for equipping it to Daxos as it would let you untap all your lands so that you could use them to cast whatever he exiles and it also makes him bigger than anything that can block him.

Why Storm Crow ? It's vanilla, doesn't do anything, just curious...

Really diggin' this deck, I was hoping to make my own Daxos deck, but this is an impressive enough build that I may run it myself. Possibly run Sublime Archangel ?

LiquidKid it's a joke that stems from early Magic. because it is a vanilla creature with nothing special to it, blue players ran it so they could chuck it as part of Force of Will 's alternate cost. someone made the joke that this particular use made it the most powerful card in Magic and it just got ran with from there.

also jorjo10 I'd look into Meddling Mage as it's fun to drop her and then name someone's commander.

Ah I C

Thanks all of you for your suggestions and comments. As for Propaganda cards - no, I think I won't run those kinds of cards, I just don't have space for them and I rather then them would play a board wipe and then cast my commander again.

Pongify , yes. I knew there was a similar card to Rapid Hybridization . Thanks. I will try to find a place for it.

Yeah, swords will come in. Soon.

I always loved Sublime Archangel and I will probably give it a try here. Don't know exactly when, because now I have a lot of changes in my head to do on this deck that should be tested and after those tests I will see, what will I find.

Meddling Mage would be cool, but I will set a course of this deck to "friendly" version, because I have another EDH that is competitive enough, so this would be more for fun - I won't run there any things that ruin the fun. But I will add it to sideboard, as well as Nevermore , in case I would be rebuilding the deck to be more competitive.

Thanks again to all of you for all your comments and both +1s. I appreciate that feedback!

Celestial Colonnade is really needed! Animate lands are essential, especially because for example your opponent plays a Sleep card. Then you still have a blocker, that they can easily forget about.

Also, Magosi, the Waterveil + Medomai the Ageless = Trolololololol

No Mystic Gate ?

actually WaFfLeZ10 that won't work. Medomai states that it cannot attack during extra turns. It doesn't state during extra turns generated by its own ability, so it includes any extra turns generated, including those provided by Magosi.

Because mana is so abundant in EDH, Mana Leak and Daze become dead cards after a few turns. I'd consider pitching them for your Dissolve s and Dissipate s. Just a thought. Nice deck overall.

@canterlotguardian I think WaFfLeZ10 was aiming for a way around skipping your next turn with Magosi, the Waterveil so that you could bank eon counters and eventually unleash them every turn for an end game move.

Propaganda would be nicely suited with Ghostly Prison . Redundancy is rarely bad in EDH. Not to mention if you stumble across both of them with your card draw and lay them both down. I also agree with awalk07 on the counterspell swap(s). I see Jace, the Mind Sculptor is in your maybe board. If you own one it's hard to make a case to not run it. You shouldn't play him without massive amounts of ways to deal with the hate though. He scares people (rightfully so) and he tends to become an immediate target when out. Fiend Hunter may not be a bad idea either.

Thanks for all your comments, guys. Firstly - counters: Well, I know that it will probably look not very efficient, but I like both Daze and Mana Leak here - I usually don't have much mana left in my turns, so cheap counters are always welcome. Daze is extremely good at least when the game starts, and after some time, when my opponents see I am usually countering some spells, they are always very interested in how much mana left I have, so they can play their huge spells - and that is where Daze is coming. It was good many and many times. So Daze will stay, as well as Mana Leak .

Well, I don't like neither Propaganda , nor Ghostly Prison . It means that you are playing more a defensive deck and I don't like that - if something goes wrong, I usually have a board wipe in my hand, and I rather play board wipe than spending my whole turn on casting an enchantment that could be destroyed. That is how I see it. At least in my playgroup those enchantments were played by many players and each of them took them out just because they weren't so good as they expected. But thanks for those suggestions, though.

And about Jace, the Mind Sculptor - sadly, I don't own even a single copy of him, but I really want to. Once I have the money, I will buy him, because I would just love to run him. But firstly, I will acquire Elspeth, Jace from RtR and Geist, after that, the Mind Sculptor will come. Looking forward to that day.

Thanks again for all your comments and suggestions! Keep them coming!

Fireshrieker is great for either Daxos of Meletis or Medomai the Ageless .

Spin into Myth , Griptide , Time Ebb and Vanishment are great for helping Daxos of Meletis make the right decision when it comes time steal from your opponents.

We're running very different decks, but check out Daxos of Hilarious for my Daxos EDH deck in the making.

Thank you for those suggestions. As you said, we're running quite a different decks. I found that relying on Daxos of Meletis is like a highway to hell.. In my playgroup there are EDH that are running black, so he is often dead, of they are running blue, so he is countered. That is common. He is back in my command zone like 1-3 times each game and by that time I could re-cast him, the game is usually decided.

So instead of relying on Daxos, I have here some other creatures, that are either protecting him (Kira, Great Glass-Spinner , Mother of Runes ) or are strong enough to replace the role of Daxos. His effect of exiling the top card of some library is definitely not my goal.

My goal is to control the game (strong creatures, walkers, copies, counters, board wipes), Daxos is just a great tool that is helping that strategy, nothing more, and, to be honest, I don't have tome to cast spells like Vanishment and others you mentioned. Guess this depends on the way you use Daxos and on how much you use him.

I think that the fact I win more often that loose with this deck against more expensive and longer tested decks than this deck is is a good sign that I'm heading the right way.

daxos done right only card i would play with differantly is bribery

Thanks. Good suggestion, I added Bribery to my maybe board.

Storm Crow?! At least give your opponents a fair chance!

I know.. I am such a terrible person! What more, I bring it to matches alongside my EDH and tend to put it somewhere on the desk so that it is clearly visible: now, imagine the faces full of terror when my opponents see it! But then again, they often seem to be relieved when they realize that since it is on the desk, in it not included in maindeck!

Nice deck +1. Could you review and upvote my Aurelia Boros Voltron?
