General Magic / Re: Gideon of the Trials / Arvad the Cursed Interaction

You are correct.  All planeswalker cards have received errata to give them the supertype Legendary.  Changing types does not change the supertype.  Activating the <0> ability of Gideon of the Trials will give him the type line of "Legendary creature planeswalker - Human Soldier Gideon".   Arvad will give creature Gideon +2/+2.  just like if you had Glorious Anthem on the battlefield, creature Gideon would get +1/+1 from that.

Happy Brewing! 

Thanks a bunch! It gets difficult sometimes to visualize imaginary oracle text.

General Magic / Gideon of the Trials / Arvad the Cursed Interaction

« en: Junio 01, 2018, 07:14:11 am »

I'm currently building a deck and was wondering if when Gideon of the Trials becomes a creature, will he gain +2/+2 from Arvad the Cursed since planeswalkers are now considered legendary from what I understand?

Revision 10

Added/removed cards:
-1 Shalai, Voice of Plenty
+1 Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle

Changed amounts:
+1 Kambal, Consul of Allocation
-1 Sram, Senior Edificer

Going to use Teshar in case I lose some steam late game. Moved Sram down one and Kambal up one to try and get both early with less chance of repeat draws too soon.

I thought this template might help. It's a midrange approach to your deck, that focuses on control early game with some late-game threats. I haven't included land but around 24-5 should suffice. (Unclaimed Territory/ Isolated Chapel...)

I included Heart of Kiran which is inexpensive and has vigilance (important for against Seal Away, includes your Legendary prerequisite.
Legion's Landing is a nice one drop that can slow down your opponent early and help you ramp later on.

Gideon will trigger historic and can help slow down your opponent. (It's not too expensive)

Radiant Destiny - Naming Legendary will help you crew Heart of Kiran, and create threats mid-late game.

Hope this gives you some ideas. 

//Spells
3 Board the Weatherlight
2 Gideon of the Trials
3 Heart of Kiran
3 Legion's Landing
2 Radiant Destiny
3 Settle the Wreckage

//Creatures
2 Aryel, Knight of Windgrace
2 Baird, Steward of Argive
1 Bontu the Glorified
2 Gonti, Lord of Luxury
3 Kambal, Consul of Allocation
2 Lyra Dawnbringer
2 Oketra the True
2 Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle
3 Yahenni, Undying Partisan

//Sideboard
SB: 2 Arguel's Blood Fast
SB: 2 Cast Out
SB: 4 Fatal Push
SB: 2 Fumigate
SB: 3 Seal Away
SB: 2 Urza's Ruinous Blast

I'll definitely give some of these changes a go. I had considered Radiant Destiny and Unclaimed Territory before, but I didn't think the Legendary supertype worked as a creature type. If that's the case, it might still be good to include and name Humans as my current iteration would still benefit on most creatures that way. Thanks for the suggestions!

The aim of this deck is to use Sram, Senior Edificer and Board the Weatherlight to easily get through my deck and build up a board of legends. I can then buff Benalish Honor Guard using On Serra's Wings (which will allow Benalish's ability to trigger off of itself) and all other legends on the board. Arvad the Cursed and Urza's Ruinous Blast are both great ways to finish off games and aren't too hard to find using Board the Weatherlight.

I'm attempting to keep the deck BW, but still think keeping a single Shalai, Voice of Plenty for only the hexproof is a good idea. I don't have Mox Amber included as I want to keep the price lower before getting it in my hands to test more. Any suggestions are encouraged and I'd love any ideas for sideboarding.
