    I think the reason a lot of enchantments make the list is that they generally change the rules, which gives them higher potential with interactions/building. As you mentioned already, they also tend to be passive effects, so they have limited maintenance. Being hard to remove for a lot of decks is just icing.
    And enchantments generally have cooler flavor so they are more memorable/fun.

    Gonna put Ana Sanctuary in Brokkos. Seems good

    I think Ukkima would make a great blink deck, especially with Ana Sanctuary. Just deal 9 damage a turn with a Conjurers Closet
    Note: just read Okinawa, would be funny to put a Lich effect in there. I think that Lich’s Mastery is the best card for a life gain deck

    I've always been a fan of Wrecking Ball, which is a Rakdos version of Aftershock but without the life loss. I'll keep an eye on this ones for red decks with no black. I could see some Izzet decks wanting this.
    The trouble with Akki Lavarunner is that it's a 4 CMC 1/1 that has to connect to an opponent to work. Even with haste, that's a tall order. I tried running him for quite a while and was never once able to flip him.
    I ran Amulet of Unmaking for a while in my Colorless deck, however in recent years it gets beat out by Scour from Existence and (I forget it's name but the colorless manalith that you can sac and pay 7 to kill anything.) Sometimes redundancy is good, but I found that 3 really expensive versions of this effect was a little too many and Amulet was the one to cut.
    Ana Sanctuary looks fantastic, I've never seen that one before. On the Sultai list for sure.

    So glad you started with Abduction. I use this in my Bruna, Light of Alabaster deck. Perfect synergy!
    Yes Aether Flash is amazing in dinos and another great reason not to run mana dorks.
    I kinda wish you could do 15cards per video.

    Aligned Hedron network seems like it goes perfectly in the new strixhaven orzov decks that want to out counters on enemy creatures. Add the impetus or what it's called cycle from last years precon and you got s good base for a deck

  • @zacharythorp6095
    @zacharythorp6095 หลายเดือนก่อน

    All these color-specific (often hating) cards, especially on enchantments, are frequently quite good. The Sanctuary cycle is one that I'm sure WotC should reprint more often. Color specific text means it's narrow but powerful; when it works, it's great. It's a type of design you really don't see today, quite deliberately.
    The *problem* with them being mostly enchantments is that so, so few colors can actually remove them. So once they're in play, they're a misery to deal with. That's probably why such card texts are mostly on creatures now, both to accelerate the game and make the effect removable.

    @criscofields7242 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome suggestions as usual. I had Aether Flash in my Ramos 5c enchantment deck and what it would enable was Academy Rector or Aura Thief (with Enchanted Evening out) to die as soon as I played them so I could tutor or steal everything. Fun card that people have to answer.
    I know a ton of cards but Abduction was one that I hadn't seen and tbh..... I love it. I am an enchanter, probably as mad as Zur, haha.

    For this effect and function of bringing back your own creature to your control after it dies, there is is "false demise" which is one mana cheaper. But nice tips. Love your channel, man. Wish we could play a match. Take care.

    Rhystic tutor is my favorite underrated card, it only costs one more then demonic and has some political benefits, a lot of the times i play it everyone is tapped out and you don’t even have to make a deal to get the best card in your deck and other times the player that is ahead is tapped out and i can search for an answer and no one pays
