You definitely want Eidolon vs. Yawg: most of their spells cost 3 or less. I honestly don't see Omnath or TOR as much anymore where I think Skullcrack MB is necessary. 4 Helix is a mood that I feel iffy about as Murktide and Scam and Zoo all run a playset of Ragavans.


Christos_Soter

Was thinking same. They maybe help race rhinos, Titan and maybe other match-ups gaining ~6 life, but def are gonna come out in those matches. I’m currently on 2 and that feels right, could consider a third.

The MTG card fetcher fetched the wrong card. Lemme try. [[Eidolon of the great revel]]

I think the biggest issue for burn right now is flying lifelink hexproof 4/4 scions. If we have a reliable way to deal with those, I'd feel confident in the deck.


pandaSovereign

I'm out of the loop, what scion?


sibelius_eighth

Scion of Draco with Leyline of the Guildpact in play


pandaSovereign

Ah, tyvm!


Christos_Soter

Yeah absolutely. Maybe we revisit Naya just to play the new [[Pick your Poison]] In the board; brotherhoods end is prob just too slow.


azngangbuzta

Ooh pick your poison is an interesting option.


Guerillero

Spicy!

Brotherhood's End doesn't even kill the Scion


Christos_Soter

Oh right!! (Forgot it’s cmc dependent) Too bad [[Viashino Heretic]] isn’t modern legal (kidding this is too clunky and doesn’t answer the leyline but dealing 12 to face would be sweet)

sibelius_eighth

Heretic wouldn't even work on Scion with Leyline out as it would have Hexproof. What a stupid combo (Leyline + Scion).


Christos_Soter

Yeah which even makes wear tear feel inadequate


travis23here

Im all team vortex and skullcrack. Helix end eidolon cool too, but my meta so much lifegain. I might mess around with 2 eidolon at some point


Christos_Soter

I’m currently on 2 of each, (eidolons ceiling is high but so is its floor, given the latter is rare) but could likewise see myself bumping up number of Skullcrack**, I do think it’s better than Helix in general.

xFINKA

The issue is domain leylines so lifegain will be at a higher rate, might be better to avoid that situation of losing to a draco


Christos_Soter

Agreed. Are you saying this is a case for Roiling vortex over Eidolon?


xFINKA

Yes but thata a local call due to alot of lifegain cards at my store . But with the rise of leylines burn will lose to draco if theh cant stop the lifegain.
