Hey everyone.
So the power creep in my EDH playgroup has been pretty real recently, and I am one of those guilty of it. This isn't necessarily a problem as it's something that most of our playgroup have been doing, but there are a couple who haven't.
As such, I've been working on a lower powered deck for when we want to play that kind of game.
I've settled on
Kangee, Aerie Keeper, going deep on the
bird tribal.
The deck list as it currently stands can be found here:
https://deckstats.net/decks/132604/1510627-birds-of-warI want this deck to end up 100% birds. All my creatures will be birds or make birds. All my non creature spells will have birds in the art.
All of my basics already have birds in the art, but the non basics don't. If necessary, I'll run 100% basics to cater for it.
I was hoping for some suggestions please. Creatures are naturally easy enough, but scryfall doesn't have a "does it have a
bird in the art" filter criteria so the non creature options are proving trickier to find. For example, ramp options are tricky to come by (shout out to
Azorius Keyrune). I'm yet to work my way through every single print of every mana rock allowed to be used in Azorius colours in EDH.
So that's my goal. 100%
bird related cards. If you have any recommendations, please share them. In an ideal world they will be functionally similar to an existing card in the deck that is not
bird related (for example,
River's Rebuke isn't very birdy, but that effect is very valuable in my meta as we have a guy who plays a
Phyrexian Unlife /
Delaying Shield /
Solemnity lock).
Also, with it being a shitty jank deck, I'd prefer budget options, but will gladly hear any and all suggestions.
I'll endeavour to get
bird prints of any card that has had multiple prints with multiple arts too. For example, I bought the old art for
Rout because it's got those Phyrexian bird-esque robots in the background.
Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.
