Hey,

Saw you added my Iron Man deck to your folder. I built it in paper and it's been a blast. Thought I'd give you some quick thoughts on how it plays.

  • It is very vunerable to aggro attacking strategies since often Iron Man and his clones are your only creatures and they will always swing. This can be stressful but also creates a fun race against the clock.

  • Keeping Iron Man alive is essential, so often first tutor is Commander's plate, doesn't hurt that it also makes him a command damage threat.

  • As expected of a deck like this, it is very consistent. I've found the 5 mana play of Ugin's Nexus almost always ends the game as Ugins > sac to Iron Man > Gonti's means you're taking 3 turns in a row, and with extra combats and fliers that's often enough to bully all real threats out.

Hope this helps and you enjoy testing!

Jlongblade, I am so glad you are enjoying my Elminster! He definitely is a lot of fun, and he is pretty flexible in what cards he can run because of how open-ended he is.
