http://deckstats.net/decks/10641/58258-momir-vig-tribal-elves-edh/enFirst, an introduction. I’ve known of Magic for quite a while now, but never actually knew anybody who played it, and although I love the art and stories, collecting to me isn’t worth it unless I have someone to play it against.
Flashback to 1-2 months ago. After some pers
uasion by my roommates and their friends, all of whom play Magic (specifically EDH), I decided to give it a go. My first deck was a heavily budget
Nath of the Gilt-Leaf deck, which I almost immediately decided to deco
nstruct because I realized that discard is a) horribly inefficient in multiplayer and b) really unfun to play. (I was hated off the table frequently.)
My second deck is a
Patron of the Orochi goodstuff: there’s little strategy other than ramping and punching people in the face until they die. It’s served me surprisingly well so far, particularly once the lands start pouring out. However, I’m vulnerable to countermagic. And almost everyone in my playgroup plays blue. So, if you can’t beat them, join them!
What’s this mean to me? GU elves! And since there’s only two options and I’ve heard that
Edric, Spymaster of Trest tends to be a prime hate target, I think I’d like to go with
Momir Vig, Simic Visionary as the general for my second deck. His tutoring ability will give me a way to grab whatever creature I need at the moment.
As for what needs to go in the deck, I need more graveyard recovery. Any idea on what's suitable to cut and what I should add?
(PS: Please read the notes at the top of the decklist. Those are my considerations for what to add.)
