I'm curious how Rav. is going to change the deck. Already see a few possible inclusions.

Hey! Nice deck!

I wouldn't mind building this one out actually. I was wondering what changes you would make to the deck if you had a total of ~$400 to spend on it? Landbase could always improve, but what about other card options?

Hi MagicPlayer1080!

Thanks for the advice, and for such a quick response. I sincerely appreciate it!

So I tried the changeling route - https://deckstats.net/decks/117378/1110076-reaper-king-with-help-from-red/en  is actually the current version of the deck. I don't think it's on par with the vampire deck unfortunately. It was generally about 2-3 turns too late within my playgroup (we play like .5 to.75 "competitive" decks, but did the things it was trying to do. I've only been able to play like 10 games with it, but it's only won in 2HG games (teamed with vampire deck). In a 4 person FFA, I was actually able to New Blood Reaper King who was being piloted by a buddy, and changed all scarecrows to all vampires...and it was fantastic! LOL, it only lasted 3 turns but I put 9 vampires into play and destroyed 9 permanents in one round.  I'm not sold on the changeling archetype, while it would allow for me to remove the creature type enchantments. I think the artifact archetype has much more fuel for it, and many more lines of play. It's more of a toolkit type of deck rather than straight linear tribal.

I think I need changes to the mana base primarily as well. Would you/anyone be able to assist me with that? I don't want to spend too terribly much (no dual lands), but happy to hear suggestions.

I've found myself considering taking the planeswalkers out as well. Some of them make combos with other parts of the deck, but I think they would be some of the first to go. I can only protect them with only a few options, so it may be better to use those slots to speed up the deck rather than have the ultimate end-game.

I haven't quite bought this version of the deck yet, but planning on trading/buying for the cards this week. Again, I appreciate the quick response and for all the help!

I hope you have a wonderful day, and week!
Artharios

@MagicPlay1080 Again, I wanted to thank you for sharing the deck. I've been watching your revisions, and even the deck I made of yours from a few versions ago is kicking ass at my play group. Splendid job on the deck!

I was wondering if you would be interested in reviewing my artifact Reaper King deck? I'm trying to get it on the same power level as this deck. Being that you are very aware of how quickly this deck plays, I thought you may be a good judge (and welcome to any other's suggestions) of revisions to keep these two decks on par with one another in a 4 person FFA pod. I've linked it here https://deckstats.net/decks/117378/1134301-reaper-king-artifacts if you care to look. Either way, keep up the good work with your deck!

Thanks!

@MagicPlayer1080 Straight forward - I guess I'm asking a few different questions here..

1) Do you usually go after necropotence first with dark petition? What other targets (I assume the ramp options) do you usually find yourself tutoring for if it's already out?
2) Do you suggest Vault of the Archangel, and if so, which land would you replace?
3) While lands could always be improved, what other cards are you considering (maybeboard) but haven't added yet? Which cards from the deck would you likely replace those with?

Thanks for all the help! I sleeved it up last night and it played like a champ!!! Thank you for putting it together, it's a blast to play!

Do you have any play lines or general tips that you could share with us? This deck looks so fleshed out and tuned, I just purchased what cards I didn't own from this list with 1-2 meta specific changes. Great job, overall.
