What cool things can players do with a More or Less? Same question for that Very Cryptic Command.
Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight
- Thread starter Grillo_Parlante
- Start date
I'd pay 3 mana for a More or Less that also affected "a".
Some of the craziest stuff I've seen with more or less is
-Change Crystalline Crawler and Faeburrow Elder from one mana to two
-Change Havengul Lich's ability to cost 0
-Make Tuskguard Captain look for +1/+2 counters so all the creatures lose trample
-Tooth and Nail
-Magmasaur to deal 10 damage to everything without flying (this only works with the original Tempest version)
-Intuition choose 2
-Killing the player of a Midnight Reaper
-Triskelion deals 2
Also pretty good with
-Pretty much any Planeswalker
-Any Field creature boost (ala Hero of the Pride)
-Any Command or Charm
In my group we determined that Afterlife N and Fabricate N should also work, but slightly unclear
Can do the other way and go -1 for all of these as well, making a stifle or counterspell for very specific targets
Also just a nice Ping or Combat trick in blue
Hopefully one day I'll see this

In my 360 core cube, which is 12 of 15 cards in each pack, I have the following:
All ten Fetches
All ten bicycle lands (the enemy ones are custom)
The five onslaught cycle lands
Terramorphic Expanse
Ash Barrens
A landfall and a selfmill theme
Is this enough to make this guy a good guy?

Yes! I need to get my hands on that guy myself.

I would say no to Scaretiller unless you run a delirium theme. Best case scenario it will provide a free land for 4 mana along with a 1/4.
Am I missing something?

It looks like great value, but Velrun is probably right. It's very weak and very slow and rather conditional. Is Ramunap Excavator proving itself too good? Being a turn faster and not having to crash into the red zone is a big deal.

I actually put Scaretiller into my The Grand Odyssey card file
I have decent hopes for it in this particular format!Is this just the best red looter that doesn't have to attack?
And how does he compare to middling blue ones like Civilized Scholar?

I think Merchant of the Vale is likely better, and Dismissive Pyromancer might be. It does have an activation cost, but it comes online a turn earlier and doubles as a removal spell.Is this just the best red looter that doesn't have to attack?

Second for Dismissive Pyromancer unless you do have a Slivers deck in the cube.
i don’t think so? they’re kind of the same but really different. cat is a better enabler but harder to stick
Depending on the format, just staying back a few turns and growing the captain can be a valid way to grind out as well. Pridemalkin is much more aggressively bent in that sense.
sharpie-ing out “outlast only as a sorcery” makes quite a few bad cards quite good, doesn’t it?

I once played this in an Esper blink deck in Peasant. The cool thing is, if you blink a reanimated target, it forgets it was reanimated by this thing and so it loses the cumulative upkeep.I recently added
to my GY based cube. Does anyone have experience with it? Seems like a decent (slow) card advantage engine for etb triggers that can also be a win condition
It seems a little complex, so I'd also avoid it IF my playgroup would be mostly newbies. Otherwise, I think it is a sweet find. The long term value this can give you is not to be underestimated.
The things that bother me personally is the color redtriction and the color pie violation aka blue gets to do everything.
