    seedborn muse always very good in this, i put wonder and herald of secret stream for evasion

    • @mtgburgeoning3205
      @mtgburgeoning3205  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Excellent additions! The extra evasion should make quick work of opponents!!

  • @RemzGC02
    @RemzGC02 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Two cards I run I believe deserve a honor mention. Herald of Secret Streams. For 3 and one blue 2/3. Creatures you control with +1/+1 counters on them can't be blocked. Vorel of the Hull Clade. 1 green and 1 blue for 1/4 that has pay blue and a green to tap:double the number of each kind of counter on target artifact, creature, or land

    • @mtgburgeoning3205
      @mtgburgeoning3205  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I can see the value in each of these suggestions. I had considered each of them during the initial construction of this deck. I chose to steer away from Herald because the build offers so much evasion in other ways, and I decided against Vorel because it only targets one permanent at a time.

    Garruks uprising i think doesnt work as people believe, i have to remove it from my deck. Trample is good on our big creatures but the token hydras enter de BF as 0/0 so it doesnt trigger the draw. Someone can confirm if its true or not. actually learned that today, i did a small google search and apaprently is true but who knows. If its draw what you want, probably better a mystic remora or something like that

    • @mtgburgeoning3205
      @mtgburgeoning3205  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You are correct. The interaction between Garruk's Uprising and Zaxara's token-producing ability will not yield a card. However, this deck's not hurting for card advantage and there are several other creatures that can trigger Uprising. The trample enablement is the MVP of this card in Zaxxy, and it has helped to win many games with those trample-less Hydra tokens.

    Zaxara is an pretty old one- But also my All-Time Favorite.
    I love this commander. Your Deck is good. I play it a little different.
    Ahjo.
    Add: Runadi, Behemot Caller and Garruks Uprising, very useful

      Thank you for your kind words! YES! Runadi would be AMAZING here!!! I'll have to check the storage coffers! Garruk's Uprising is in the 99 already. It is beastly! Thank you for your suggestions!!

    Freed From the Real is basically another copy of Pemmin's Aura for the infinite combo

    • @mtgburgeoning3205
      @mtgburgeoning3205  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Absolutely! Both of these auras were in the first draft of this deck, but I decided to just include Pemmin's Aura. Having two in hand did not seem to be the best way to manage resources.

    Is you doubling season the hydra token isn't the copy just a 0/0?

    • @mtgburgeoning3205
      @mtgburgeoning3205  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      No. The +1 +1 counters are placed onto the token as part of the ability. Creating the token and putting the +1 +1 counters on it are the same ability, so state-based game actions never see the token as a 0/0.

      I'm also surprised you didn't mention [[freed from the real]]. Basically does the same thing as pemmin. Combod that with zax and [[hydra broodmaster]] just last night and dropped 100x 100/100 hydra tokens. Half the table just got up and left 😅
      Whatever. Awesome video. I'll add some of these to my deck first thing this evening 💪🏾👍🏾

      @@acutefailure1 Hahaha! I can just imagine players getting up and walking away. A walk-off MTG play! I initially considered Freed From The Real but relented and decided to include just Pemmin's Aura since it is more versatile. Including a second outlet for the infinite-mana combo here may be enticing, especially considering it could enchant either Bloom Tender or Selvala with equal results. I wonder how many walk-offs this would inspire among members of my playgroup? Knowing them, there would be less walk-offs and more hate, but we can handle it. We're Sultai baby!!

      Hahaha! Those little jolts are purposeful. I'm hoping that they help to break-up the minutiae of listening to my voice talking about cards for 25 minutes haha. Surprisingly, my play group does not mind this deck, aside from attaching Pemmin's Aura to Zaxara, which I only use as a last resort. There are far more evil builds that my group does not like. Some of which will be showcased soon.....
