The Siphoner is a callback to powerful black cards like Dark Confidant and Phyrexian Arena, but gives you more control over when and how you make the trade, and can just generate energy for other cards if you don’t need to draw extra cards for some reason. There were enough crazy cars and trains to recreate episodes of Top Gear, for one thing and cards like Glint-Sleeve Siphoner that dealt with energy counters did some cool stuff, even if it could feel bad that you can’t interact with energy as an opponent. The fact is, it had a lot of other interesting things in it. I tried to focus today’s list not only upon giving players the most Zombie bite for their buck but also making sure the deck is packed with powerful Zombie synergies and on-point undead flavor.It really is too bad that the main thing we remember about Kaladesh right now is the banned cards and the craziness that had to do with tournaments at that time. Zombies are a sweet Magic tribe with fantastic flavor. For instance, a Dictate of Erebos and a Grave Pact would cost essentially the same amount as my entire 100-card deck! The powerful cards of the format, like Grave Pact, tend to be individually expensive.
I generally think tribal-based swarm decks are a lot of fun to play (especially on a budget) and tend to be one of the best budget strategies in multiplayer.Īs has been my mantra for my budget Commander series, the key is to focus on building for synergy as opposed to building for individually powerful cards. Our choices about who to target first, second or third will have a lot of implications at forcing specific players to take actions (instead of simply ramping and building up resources). One of the things I love most about playing aggressive decks in Commander is that it gives the pilot a lot of decisions and control over how games play out because we’re able to leverage who and where we attack each turn. In combination with lots of effects that force all players to sacrifice a creature, the strategy is quite potent and well positioned for multiplayer games. We tend to have a lot of cards that do similar but slightly different things but all have tribal and recursive synergy with one another. Magic The Gathering - Syphon Sliver (117/249) - Magic 2014 Visit the Magic The Gathering Store 100 ratings 1915 About this item A single individual card from the Magic: the Gathering (MTG) trading and collectible card game (TCG/CCG). One of the great things about playing Zombies is that there is so much redundancy in terms of lords and synergies. It’s probably the best tribal Zombie block since Onslaught Block, which added a ton of excellent cards and really put Zombies on the map as a tribe to be respected and, dare I say, feared. It’s also worth noting that Innistrad: Midnight Hunt and Crimson Vow both added a ton of fantastic Zombie tribal options especially in terms of budget options and I’ve utilized a lot of those cards to give my deck some depth and sustainability. In the case where we get to untap with bodies on the battlefield, we’re able to use lords and anthems to bolster our forces to add additional damage during combat. The general idea of the strategy is to put a bunch of power and toughness onto the board to overwhelm our opponents and be able to rebuild quickly if something goes wrong. So, even when our Zombies get swept away, there’s a great chance that we’ll be able to replace those bodies with extra cards to help rebuild. It’s particularly fantastic with the edict effects I have baked into my deck that force all opponents to sacrifice a creature (and thus allowing Gisa to take a creature from each player).
It shuts down opposing graveyards and recruits all opposing slain monsters into our mob of undead. Shortcode: PRM Promotional Released on Monday, January 3, 1994.
Much as we’d expect to see in a Zombie horror flick, the goal for today’s deck will be to amass a huge swarm of undead to overwhelm and overpower the other players at the table.įirst of all, Gisa, Glorious Resurrector is an absolute gem of a Commander. Promotional - Deckmaster for Magic: the Gathering (MTG) Cards Magic: the Gathering set released on Monday, January 3, 1994. Zombie tribal as a strategy is pretty straightforward and has great flavor. Over the past week or so, I’ve been working on a non-budget version of Zombie tribal and I noticed that the core of the deck (including a lot of basic Swamps!) is actually quite budget friendly to assemble and even without the expensive staples still functions with both power and consistency. There’s nothing that pleases me more than a deck that harnesses the ghastly power of basic Swamp to great effect and today’s deck is geared toward sharing my love of “Black Magic” with all of the necromancers on a budget.
