Red Elemental Counter Help

Deck Help forum

Deck is here:RockemSockemRobots?

I am trying to use the Kulrath Knight ability to lock my opponents down, are there any cards that give all creatures +1+1 or -1-1 counters? I know of Black Sun's Zenith but it is the wrong color for my deck.

Also, any suggestions for this deck in general? It is brand new and i will be buying the cards to build it in a few weeks.

Thanks

Contagion Engine ? I can't really think of anything else in just Red that'll put any sort of counters on all of your opponent's creatures.

Serrated Arrows , maybe?

Well...What about other colors? I may tweak the deck if I need to to get it to work.

Actually, I think ANY kind of counter works...it does not need to be a +1+1 or -1-1 counter. A gold counter would also count, example: Aurification

Correct, though Aurification would negate the need for Kulrath Knight entirely.

Yeah I know, but its an example of putting any kind of counter to activate the ability...But I am just having a lot of trouble finding cards that give many creatures counters at once.

I figured there would be a card out there with something like..."Do something pretty cool, but then you have to give all your opponents creatures a +1+1 counter as well as a sideeffect of being so awesome"

or

Yeah, Green probably gives you the most options, with things like Forgotten Ancient , Sheltering Ancient , and Thrive .

If you want to add Black instead, there are plenty of cards you probably already know about, and Aku Djinn from olden times.

Rhadamanthus I am not really aware of any black cards either. List what you can think of! :)

Alright, there's Black Sun's Zenith , Contagion , Everlasting Torment , Fevered Convulsions , Harbinger of Night (not an Elemental, but very good), Incremental Blight , Soul Snuffers , Cannibalize , Spoils of War , and another Red card I remembered is Retribution .

What about good old Fire Whip ? Stick one of them on your Knight and lock down till your hearts content.

Plain old Scar will do.

skanedog Fire Whip is a great idea. in my deck seen in this thread might allow me to swap out Cinder Pyromancer . I dont play many instants or sorceries in that deck; ill test it.
