    on a side note: funny that Enchanted Evening and Calming Verse both are illustrated by the same artist, Rebecca Guay. 😊

    Enchanted evening comboed with Aura Thief is even better. It is like a Tyrant Dragon + mycosynth lattice combo.

      @Jamie Enchantress effects tend to trigger when you cast enchantment spells. You don't cast land cards, so that doesn't work.

    • @mortycremwatch
      @mortycremwatch 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jamie Enchanted Evening only affects permanents in play so it will not cause nonenchantments to trigger on cast effects
      EE also creates an infinite loop with Ajani's Chosen or Archon of Sun's Grace as the token it creates will trigger the ability again (and again). You need a way to make this end the game or a way to stop the loop though or the game will end in a tie

    I'd like to give a few cards a shout out for a possible mention in a future video. Glacial Crevasses, a three mana red enchantment we can use to sacrifice a snow covered mountain to prevent combat damage that turn. Pretty useful in a deck that's using a lot snow mountains and just save ourselves from a all out attack Spike Cannibal, a three mana creature that comes into play a +1/+1 counter. When it comes into play, move all +1/+1 counters from all creatures onto Spike Cannibal. This could be devastating to a +1 counters deck, especially creatures that rely on said counters to stay alive if their a 0/0 creature. All the while we end up with a pretty big body. And Outmaneuver, a red instant that costs X and Red. X target blocked creatures deal combat damage to defending player instead of to blocking creatures this turn. Pretty much provide our creatures with super trample. Something very useful in a token, voltron, or any other combat focused deck. We could even use it to just help someone else get their creatures through and possibly finish another player off. Hopefully these are something interesting worth noting. And always, thanks for another great video Demo!

    I use Excavation in my Kynaios and Tiro "Egglands" deck, where I massively sacrifice my lands and then massively recur them for value. Excavation can be used in a combo with Faith's Reward, Mystic Sanctuary and either a mana doubler or a second land sac outlet that does it for free to draw your deck.

  • @kingfuzzy2
    @kingfuzzy2 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    eon hub is an amazing card i run it in an orzhov enchantress deck with multiple bad upkeep triggers for me that i can safely ignore and just use the upsides but my opponents cannot do both. excavation is really good in a group hug or moonfolk deck really like that tech.

  • @nonoser4823
    @nonoser4823 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    excavation could go in a muldrotha deck because you wanna have lands in your grave, your commander is blue and the card is an enchantment so it is especially good in muldrotha

  • @TheRezignator
    @TheRezignator 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Theres another strong enchantment that I've never seen anyone but me play called Strands of Night. It cost 2BB and you van pay BB 2 life and sac a swamp to return a creature from your graveyard to play. Its a super strong repeatable instant speed reanimation effect. I use it in my Meren deck along with World Shaper to get all the lands back that I sac to this or mill. It's also pretty easy to loop in that kind of deck you can sac a creature with Ashnod's then filter the colorless mana through Bog Inititate(another highly underated card that is just a 2 mana creature that lets you turn 1 generic mana into a black mana)

    oh Erratic portal is in my colorless Kozilek deck its so i can reload my hand and reuse the eldrazi cast triggers
    before it was banned you can infinite with Paradox engine with it if you had enough mana.
    and i got a Idea for Excavation and thats Horde of notions if your elemental tribal is land themed some elementals have the ability to return lands to play and if you have crucible of worlds you can just pay the 1 for days and probably best of all if you throw in a Mirrai's wake with the land resurrection and you will essentially make the lands tap for 3 rather than 2

    Excavation is in my Tatyova deck where i massevely sac all my lands and recur them with mending of dominaria or splendid reclamation. this allows me to draw tons of cards. I use zuran orb with the same purpose
    And i've encountered some openents who were late in the game and only drawing lands who used this effect so yeah great card
    Anyway great content, love this serie ! :)

    excavation is great in my archelos landfall deck. multiple ways to play lands in a turn and multiple ways to play lands from graveyard. It becomes very effective card draw with no downside and allows me to have more lands to play from the graveyard using rumanap excavator or crucible of worlds or muldrotha

      Since Enchanted Evening makes permanents enchantments, I think it wouldn't impact anything not on the battlefield, because permanents have to be on the battlefield to be changed into enchantments. As I understand it, it would have to refer to permanent spells to change the type of the permanent before its on the battlefield.
