    Maybe this was too obvious to mention, but the extra combat steps also feed into the Unnatural Growth, since it is worded as “at the beginning of each combat.” Your creatures could keep doubling and doubling in a single turn and become absolutely monstrous.

    There’s a nice new mana-producing artifact in Innistrad, the Celestus. It also helps werewolves by giving you control of the day/night cycle for 3 mana. And giving you +1 life any time that cycle shift happens. It’s less aggro though, more about recovery

    @RazgrizAce67 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Cards that give creatures flash are valuable in tribal werewolves to help them transform. With how the new day/night mechanic works cards like Aluren and Vernal Equinox are interesting because it not only does it allow you to transform your werewolves by playing them not on your turn but it also incentives other players to not play on their own turns.

    As much as everyone is on the werewolf hype train (and they should be, congrats! you finally got what you've waited for! :D), I myself have always loved the gothic horror investigator theme. Investigate was left by the wayside and I couldn't quite get the groove of the noir detective out of Lonis, Cryptozoologist.
    Enter Eloise, Nephalia Sleuth, a commander using BOTH of my favorite keywords in magic on the same card in my favorite two colors of magic since i started playing a decade ago. An artistofacts deck based around binning cards you're not after (YET.) and cracking both creatures and clues to get to the bottom of this case. traditional control packages combine with artifact synergies and aristocrats to make a very unusual form of control at a table of 3 opponents and I'd love to see your take on the investigations she's DELVING into out in the rainy gutters of the Erdwal (or as other denizens call it, "the Ditch.")

    11:46 Spellbinder will let you copy Savage Beating for free, but it will *NOT* let you entwine it for free, since entwine is an additional cost. It's the same as with free casting a kicker spell, you still have to pay for the kicker if you want it. It's not the biggest deal since it's just two mana extra, but it is worth noting.

    Something to note here with Vildin-pack Alpha and Moonmist, they cannot transform cards with Daybound/Nightbound on them. It will literally do nothing because of how daybound nightbound works in the game rules. But at least half of your cards will still work with it with the old transform text. Also something to note is that Day/Night only checks if the active player (the person who's turn it is) has casted two or more or no spells. If that player didn't cast spells and it was day, it will turn night regardless of what other players do on that player's turn. This also means that in some awkward situations that your Daybound/Nightbound werewolves with Tovolar will transform because it turns night, but another player casted a spell on that player's turn so it won't transform the werewolves with the old text because they don't care who casted the spell, and then because it's not day Tovolar won't transform your old text werewolves on your upkeep.

    And for some more expensive upgrades: Gratuitous Violence, Fiery Emancipation, Descendants' Path, Seedtime, Asceticism, Dolmen Gate, Heroic Intervention.
    Lastly, what pack of wolves would be complete without a prey squirrel? Toski will let you double up on the card draw.

    It's awesome to finally have a legit werewolf Commander. My only complaint is that for Commander, it doesn't allow for white, blue or black, and those colors have at least one decent werewolf each.
    Idk if there will ever be enough werewolves of these colors to justify a 5 color tribal deck, but it's still an awesome thought. I look forward to constructing a Commander and a tiny leaders deck for werewolves soon

      For a set that was marketed as a werewolfset it feels like werewolves didn't get the love they deserved. Not one mythic werewolf in the set unless you want to count Arlin. I hope we will get some nice werewolfs in the upcoming set but since that set is vampire oriented my hopes aren't high.

    I’ve always liked cards but mtg was the first one I actually played and got heavily invested into, and I just started playing when midnight hung came out (So about a year now). I love werewolves, to be fair I might be biased because It’s the first deck I ever made by myself without any kind of online guide, but it’s just a fun archetype and tovalar makes it even more fun

    I just recently finished my Tolovar deck. It’s not cEDH as I don’t think Tolovar really can be, but it’s really good. The biggest issue is dealing with fliers but you can just swarm the board so quickly. Unnatural Growth, Rage Reflection, Rhythm of the Wild, and Xenagos make your creatures so strong. On top of having werewolves that give trample, Immerwolf, and extra turn red spells make this deck end games quick if not dealt with
