So I have a friend who plays hanna, Ship's Navigator as his general with a bunch of steal effect enchantments and ways to sacrifice the stolen permenants knowing that he can just get back and replay them via hanna. Sure, it's an expensive, but reusable Vindicate. At first I built Llawan... which proved to play very well against this deck (just counter the stuff that would steal Llawan). But he's still playing it, so I've decided to give him a taste of his own medicine... so here it is:
It needs a lot of cutting (103 cards not counting land=43 cards to cut)... also, did I miss anything worth it?
Some of the easy cuts are:
Flickerwisp (in it for Merieke, also gets back my stuff if stolen)
Ritual of the Machine (not worth it with all the other quality stealing effects)
What should I cut and add?
I'll put the land in once I get a better idea where the colors end up (looks like it'll be U/B/w). The higher costing spells, and the less focused spells probably need to be removed... any other spells like Annex that help my mana situation by stealing theirs?
About Freed from the Real - it depends on your mana. At worst, it looks like X2U
Spend only blue mana on X.
Destroy X target creatures. They can't be regenerated.
It's really good. I've wanted to make a Merieke deck for a while now (I pulled a foil Timeshifted one in TSP). I have a GCO EDH now, but I just lost all of my cards older than ZEN (other than Merieke, my decks, and a few others), so I have nothing to put in for blue atm.
Deck's colors:
Blue is the heaviest color, with white and black as splashes. It may be more beneficial for me to cut expensive white and black cards (like Blazing Archon and Mjojin of Night's Reach) for cheaper blue cards, but what they do can not be done with blue. I may end up cutting those if I don't see this working.
