If it doesn't work out you could also try Shrine of Loyal Legions Which is one I've been trying to get into my list for a while

There are a couple of reasons why I don't think EDH is a good format: 1. The "Social Contract" and the idea that in order to have a good EDH game you have to be playing for fun and not to win. Whenever the "fun" way to play a game and the "best" way to play a game are at odds, it's poorly...

I've been doing this for a while and I like the results a lot. It means you have to be cleverer about getting your sword hits in as you can't rely on it to be unblockable, and doesn't remove counterplay from the opponent by cutting off their creature removal.

One thing that is a bit weird about Eternalize is that none of the eternal creatures in the set are 4/4s, and they all (mostly? I didn't check) have Afflict which I don't think any of the Eternalize cards do. So there's kind of two different types of eternal which is slightly jarring.

In the context of Cube Love: Wasteland Mutavault Rishadan Port Hate Strip Mine Cavern of Souls Maze of Ith There are plenty more I wouldn't play but I wouldn't say I actually hate any of them.

Gaea's Cradle Survival of the Fittest Primeval Titan Birthing Pod

I was also going to mention Battle Box Magic, where you have a shared library you draw from with no lands, and a set aside pile of 5 basics and 5 ETB tapped duals that you can play one of each turn. It's like a cross between Magic and Hearthstone where you always get 1 land per turn, although...

A big difference between Hearthstone and Magic is that in Hearthstone mana doesn't have any colour, and they get around the problem of people playing all the best cards by splitting them up into classes that can only use their own or neutral cards. I much prefer the Magic risk/reward system of...

That last sentence was rather negative but I do like the game a lot, just not the tournament decks. Playing with just the starter pack or with just a few extra cards was really fun.

There's also the way Netrunner approaches "combat" with its run system. It's asymmetric so one player is always the attacker and one the defender, with the defender (the Corp) having various servers in which it can hide objectives the attacker (the Runner) needs to steal, which it does by...

How has As Foretold been performing? That's a sweet card.

There's some games which have a "lane" system as well - the only one I've played is the Heroes of Might and Magic TCG but I think the Elder Scrolls TCG has it as well. When you play a creature, you assign it to a particular lane, and it can either attack opposing creatures in that lane or the...

It's kind of interesting as an alternative to Exploration that's worse early but a better topdeck in the lategame. It's also more easily tutorable.

Snatchcaster Mage? Backcaster Mage? Snapcaster Thief?

I don't know how hard it would be to program but you could also do it like the Jhoira avatar on MTGO which gives three random instants/sorceries and then you choose one to cast, limited by mana cost like Onder suggests.

I do love Flickerwisp, but I already run Restoration Angel and Kor Skyfisher as similar effects and I'm a bit wary of including too much flicker as it does add to on-board complexity. I couldn't fault anyone for doubling up. e: Sorcery speed flickering isn't so bad actually with regard to...

Merry Cubemas!

I'm a big Vendilion Clique fan. It does a bit of everything but it never feels too oppressive, and is very skill testing.

Riptide Laboratory in the ULD and human being a relevant type.

Rishkar was the other one on my list. I'll give him and Nissa a try.
