<h1>Epic Preparations</h1>
<p><span id="m_7985745279735501680gmail-docs-internal-guid-971aaafd-7fff-35c2-bef7-2bbb00875c9e">Hello EDHREC fans! I’m Bernardo Melibeu, and this is <em>Epic Experiment,</em> a series where we throw all common sense aside and experiment with some unusual strategies, changing how we normally build our deck. Is it going to work? Who knows?! We’re making science here. When you’re an Izzet mage, blowing things up is half the fun.</span></p>
<p>In this article we'll be taking thing slowly with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Baird, Steward of Argive" href="#" target="_blank">Baird, Steward of Argive</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span></p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Baird, Steward of Argive"></div></div>
<p><strong>Creatures can't attack you or a planeswalker you control unless their controller pays {1} for each of those creatures.</strong></p>
<p>Observation 1:</p>
<p>He's a lock piece in the command zone. This can be quite useful in the right shell, since he'll always be available to us.</p>
<p>Observation 2:</p>
<p>Paying one mana for each attacking creature is not that much of a burden on our enemies. To be effective, we need to stack multiple instances of this type of effect.</p>
<p>Observation 3:</p>
<p>He can be used both aggressively and defensively. When used as an aggro tool, he allows us to attack with less fear of repercussion. When used as a defensive tool, he relieves some of the pressure our enemies might bring.</p>
<p>Observation 4:</p>
<p>Four mana is a lot for a mono-white commander.</p>
<p>Observation 5:</p>
<p>It's a shame that he doesn't have access to <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rhystic Study" href="#" target="_blank">Rhystic Study</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. I know that it's a great card and many non-blue decks would also love to play it, but <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Baird, Steward of Argive" href="#" target="_blank">Baird, Steward of Argive</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> would really appreciate not only the Study's draw ability but also<em> </em>its taxation effect.</p>
<hr />
<h2>The Old Formula</h2>
<p><a href="https://articles.edhrec.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Baird-Sig.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-38377 aligncenter" src="https://articles.edhrec.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Baird-Sig.png" alt="" width="604" height="322" /></a>Here we can see that people, by stacking multiple tax effects, try to establish a board state that makes it difficult for their opponents to attack back, or even play cards. This type of support is needed because, as I mentioned before, paying one generic mana to attack isn't that much of an imposition on our enemies.</p>
<hr />
<h2>The Epic Ingredients</h2>
<p>Baird is a lock piece in the command zone - that is, he prevents them from doing something they probably want to do. He wants to slow the game down and from there take over the game by slowly accruing incremental value. Planeswalkers thrive in this style of gameplay, and the best part is that Baird can help us protect them with his ability. This at first seems like kind of an obvious direction for a Baird deck, but astonishingly, it isn't. The lack of Superfriends decks with Baird at the helm might be a symptom of the his low popularity.</p>
<p>This list will be divided, mainly, in two parts: lock pieces and planeswalkers. The first will stop our enemies from doing what they like, which paves the way for us to do what <em>we </em>like, and for our wincons to slowly grind our opponents out of the game.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="God-Pharaoh&#039;s Statue"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Peacekeeper"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Torpor Orb"></div></div>
<p>For lock pieces we are looking for ways to enhance our commander's tax ability. These effects may vary from making all spells cost more to play, like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Sphere of Resistance" href="#" target="_blank">Sphere of Resistance</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Thorn of Amethyst" href="#" target="_blank">Thorn of Amethyst</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="God-Pharaoh&#039;s Statue" href="#" target="_blank">God-Pharaoh&#039;s Statue</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, or even adding extra copies of Baird's effect with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Norn&#039;s Annex" href="#" target="_blank">Norn&#039;s Annex</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Archangel of Tithes" href="#" target="_blank">Archangel of Tithes</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Peacekeeper" href="#" target="_blank">Peacekeeper</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. In a similar fashion, we're also running a creature-hosing kit with cards like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Cursed Totem" href="#" target="_blank">Cursed Totem</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Meekstone" href="#" target="_blank">Meekstone</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Torpor Orb" href="#" target="_blank">Torpor Orb</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, making it difficult for our opponents to pull ahead in the game.</p>
<p>The last batch of stax is more proactive, opting for a more direct approach to slowing our opponents down. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Smokestack" href="#" target="_blank">Smokestack</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> makes them sacrifice a number of permanents each turn; this can be a dangerous card to play, but our deck can easily negate its downside with the sheer number of tokens we can generate with our planeswalkers. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rule of Law" href="#" target="_blank">Rule of Law</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ethersworn Canonist" href="#" target="_blank">Ethersworn Canonist</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, at first, each seem a bit like a nonbo with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Baird, Steward of Argive" href="#" target="_blank">Baird, Steward of Argive</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, but consider that each of these cards make recovering from a board wipe extremely difficult.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Elspeth, Sun&#039;s Champion"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Ugin, the Ineffable"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Gideon, Jura"></div></div>
<p>For our planeswalker suite, we're rocking 14. They don't seem like all that much in a vacuum, but once we have a firm grasp on the game they quickly show their value. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Elspeth, Sun&#039;s Champion" href="#" target="_blank">Elspeth, Sun&#039;s Champion</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is a win condition and a board staller. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Karn, Scion of Urza" href="#" target="_blank">Karn, Scion of Urza</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is a way to generate card advantage, and he has the added benefit of providing a body to block when necessary. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Karn, the Great Creator" href="#" target="_blank">Karn, the Great Creator</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> works as both a <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Null Rod" href="#" target="_blank">Null Rod</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> effect and a small clock. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Teyo, the Shieldmage" href="#" target="_blank">Teyo, the Shieldmage</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is a nice addition that can help block on the ground by providing a couple of Walls and giving us hexproof. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ugin, the Ineffable" href="#" target="_blank">Ugin, the Ineffable</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is one of the best planeswalkers available to us; he draws us cards, provides chump blockers, and he has a little bit of mana acceleration built in, making him a true all-around card.</p>
<p>Aside from the main structure of the deck, there're a few support cards that are worth mentioning: <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Contagion Engine" href="#" target="_blank">Contagion Engine</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Karn&#039;s Bastion" href="#" target="_blank">Karn&#039;s Bastion</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> are the <em>Proliferate</em> on-demand cards, which is very helpful when trying to sustain our planeswalkers. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Karmic Justice" href="#" target="_blank">Karmic Justice</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> makes it very dangerous for our opponents to destroy any of our lockdown pieces. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Arena Rector" href="#" target="_blank">Arena Rector</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is a nice way to cheat into play one of our bigger planeswalkers (like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Karn Liberated" href="#" target="_blank">Karn Liberated</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> or <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ugin, the Spirit Dragon" href="#" target="_blank">Ugin, the Spirit Dragon</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>).</p>

</div>
<p>The biggest issue with the list, and with mono-white in general, is the lack of card draw; this makes our games somewhat dependent on starting hands and/or lucking out with our draws. Aside from that, the deck runs pretty smoothly, with lots of answers.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="White Sun&#039;s Zenith"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Luminarch Ascension"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Dawn of Hope"></div></div>
<p>Aside from the aforementioned wincons, we can still win the game by beating down our opponents with tokens. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="White Sun&#039;s Zenith" href="#" target="_blank">White Sun&#039;s Zenith</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is a great flexible finisher that can be cashed out early in the game if needed. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Luminarch Ascension" href="#" target="_blank">Luminarch Ascension</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is a good constant source of tokens. It's reasonably easy to get online, but still we shouldn't be slamming it down until we can protect ourselves.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Methodology</h2>
<p>For our opening hand, we want some sort of acceleration and a lock piece; the planeswalkers can come later on. The most important part here is curving out well and making sure our own lockdown and taxation effects don't affect our own board.</p>
<p>In the early game, we need to accelerate our mana by playing our mana rocks. The difference between playing <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Smokestack" href="#" target="_blank">Smokestack</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> or even any random planeswalker on turn three instead of turn four is huge, because that could give our opponents the time they need to pull ahead of us. In many cases, there's no coming back from that especially against ramp-heavy decks.</p>
<p>By the mid-game, we should hope to have assembled some sort of combination of lockdown effects. Having multiple of those is really important because, when alone, they are usually only a small nuisance, but together, they absolutely prevent our enemies from playing effectively. This is usually the time when we need to start thinking about playing planeswalkers, and our decision to play or not should be based on board state and whether or not we can protect them. Sometimes, if we have multiple in hand, we can try to test the waters, but I would take caution since we can't recover them.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Gideon, Champion of Justice"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Ignite the Beacon"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="The Chain Veil"></div></div>
<p>By the late game it becomes a bit easier to take over the board with an active planeswalker or two. By this point most of the creature-heavy decks have already lost gas because of our numerous board wipes. However, our taxing effects can become obsolete quite quickly (that <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rule of Law" href="#" target="_blank">Rule of Law</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> isn't all that threatening once people are in top-deck mode), and the "political tool" that we lose by playing this kind of deck can be too much for us to recover from. Be very precise with your timing, both when you choose to deploy the tax and stax effects <em>and </em>when you choose to deploy your win conditions. That's how you'll emerge victorious.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Epic Results</h2>
<p>This list was light on the token subtheme; going forward, I could see how investing more oon the token strategy could be enjoyable. Alternatively, we could go the other way around and opt for more of a "hatebears" approach with effects like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Thalia, Guardian of Thraben" href="#" target="_blank">Thalia, Guardian of Thraben</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Leonin Arbiter" href="#" target="_blank">Leonin Arbiter</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. Adding mass land destruction spells like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Armageddon" href="#" target="_blank">Armageddon</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> can also be quite effective at locking people out of the game; just be sure to check with your playgroup if they're okay with it, since it's not everyone's cup of tea.</p>
<p>If you feel that you're getting aggro'd by the table, investing into more board wipes and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ghostly Prison" href="#" target="_blank">Ghostly Prison</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> effects might help taking the edge off you.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Helm of the Host"></div></div>
<p>One fun little "combo" that I see very often is equipping <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Helm of the Host" href="#" target="_blank">Helm of the Host</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> to our commander. This might be a bit clunky, but it's fun and should be considered when investing heavily into tokens.</p>
<p>That’s it for this <em>Epic Experiment!</em> What do you think about this list? Did it manage to defend our planeswalkers? Do you have any questions about the deck? Which cards did you like? Which didn’t you? Was the <em>Epic Experiment</em> a success? Please let me know in the comments below!</p>

<h1><strong>Now!</strong></h1>
<p>Greetings everyone, and welcome back to <em>Monomania</em>. In this article series we build mono-colored decks as a way to explore ramp and draw packages that are synergistic with our particular deck’s strategy, and to challenge staples and misconceptions about the color pie. Today, we’re masterminding our escape plan.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Mangara of Corondor"></div></div>
<p>Mangara of Corondor looks very innocent, but his effect is surprisingly potent with the right support. Every turn, he can remove the most problematic permanent on the board at the low low cost of exiling himself in the process. Played fairly, this commander quickly becomes too expensive to cast from the command zone. However, take a close look at that ability. Mangara exiles himself as part of the ability, not as part of the activation cost. With ways to flicker or bounce Mangara back to our hand in response to his ability, we can still exile the worst permanent, and evade extra taxes on our commander, using our general as a powerful tool to control the board.</p>
<p>Looking through Mangara's EDHREC page, it is clear that people generally understand the power of this interaction—<span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Cloudshift" href="#" target="_blank">Cloudshift</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Flickerform" href="#" target="_blank">Flickerform</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> appear in 63% of Mangara decks, while <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Erratic Portal" href="#" target="_blank">Erratic Portal</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> appears in 59%. Another EDHREC writer, <a href="https://articles.edhrec.com/author/ben-doolittle/">Ben Doolittle</a>, has already written a great article about Mangara and blink effects. Check it out <a href="https://articles.edhrec.com/conditions-allow-mangara-of-corondor/">here</a>. However, Mangara still only leads 59 decks on EDHREC and deserves much more love, so I’ll examine another angle for this general.</p>
<p>While we’ll be running all of the typical flicker support in white, I’ve also decided to take this commander in a couple different directions, all of which affect how we will ramp and gain card advantage. Because Mangara is such a powerful control tool, I’ve included a lifegain package as added deterrence. The threat of crackback from Mangara sometimes isn’t enough to prevent aggression, but if we’re sitting at 80 life, our opponents will think twice before menacing us, especially if we can remove their most important permanents with our general. I’ve opted for a piecemeal approach—gaining life incrementally over the course of the game. We’ll be running <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Soul Warden" href="#" target="_blank">Soul Warden</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Leonin Elder" href="#" target="_blank">Leonin Elder</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Diamond Mare" href="#" target="_blank">Diamond Mare</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> rather than big swings like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Beacon of Immortality" href="#" target="_blank">Beacon of Immortality</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. I’ve also included a small creature strategy to maintain some board presence—things for us to flicker, protect our commander, or combo off with.</p>
<p><a href="https://articles.edhrec.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/chopper.gif"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-37695 aligncenter" src="https://articles.edhrec.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/chopper.gif" alt="" width="384" height="206" /></a></p>
<p>With all that in mind, let’s examine our ramp and draw packages. We'll be dropping Mangara into the heat of battle, gaining value from our troops, and then dropping a ladder from the helicopter for a quick escape.</p>
<hr />
<h2><strong>Keep the Engine Idling</strong></h2>
<p>First, we have our card advantage package. While we do have the ability to draw cards with this set of effects, our package is more focused around deck thinning and putting cards from our deck into our hand.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Well of Lost Dreams"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Dawn of Hope"></div></div>
<p>These two cards are powerhouses with our style of life-gain package. If we were playing swingy, expensive lifegain effects, we would often be unable to take advantage of these card advantage engines. With a <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Soul’s Attendant" href="#" target="_blank">Soul’s Attendant</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> on the table, though, paying a few mana during our opponents' turns to draw cards is exactly what we want to do. At its core, Mangara is a control general, and we’ll often leave mana open to respond to different board states. If we have nothing better to do, why not incidentally draw cards?</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Land Tax"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Oreskos Explorer"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Endless Horizons"></div></div>
<p>In my opinion, this set of cards, along with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Gift of Estates" href="#" target="_blank">Gift of Estates</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, is an underrated package for mono-white. Everyone knows Land Tax is insane, but I wager that these deck-thinning effects are valuable for a few reasons. Each of them provides a stellar rate of cards-to-hand for their mana costs. What’s more, they give us a greater chance of drawing nonland cards afterward. Oreskos Explorer is perhaps the most underwhelming of the bunch, especially when compared to <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Boreas Charger" href="#" target="_blank">Boreas Charger</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, but the fact that this composite effect of deck thinning and card advantage is perfect for us—especially when attached to an ETB that can be easily abused by blink effects that we’re already running. While Land Tax and Oreskos are both limited by the condition of “if an opponent controls more lands than you,” it should almost never be a burden. How many times has the mono-white player controlled the most lands?</p>
<p>Finally, Endless Horizons is a very underrated tool in mono-white. It only appears in 986 decks total on EDHREC, but it should be a consideration for almost every mono-white deck. This is white’s answer to <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Phyrexian Arena" href="#" target="_blank">Phyrexian Arena</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>—with the same power and shortcomings. With Endless Horizons, you draw one extra card per turn and receive the bonus of incredible thinning. Just don’t make the mistake of removing all the Plains from your deck early in the game. If an opponent removes it, you will be shut off from further land drops. Instead, think about what you want. How many cards do you think is fair for four mana? Eight? Nine? How many more turns before the game ends? Six? Seven? These are the questions that direct how you play Endless Horizons. In the late game, this card may easily be better than Phyrexian Arena—removing the rest of our Plains from the deck and ensuring playable draws for the remainder of the game.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Ranger of Eos"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Ranger-Captain of Eos"></div></div>
<p>Finally, we have two other cards that can thin our deck and gain us card advantage. These effects that search for creatures that cost one mana can fetch some of the most important creatures in our deck. The real benefit of these cards is that their effects are attached to ETB triggers—perfect targets to flicker.</p>
<hr />
<h2><strong>Get This Thing Off the Ground</strong></h2>
<p>To ramp, we’ll be looking for similar types of effects—cards that thin our deck, gain us life, and put extra mana sources on the field.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Kor Cartographer"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Knight of the White Orchid"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Boreas Charger"></div></div>
<p>These three cards each search out one land and put it directly onto the battlefield, the best form of ramp available. What’s more, each is attached to an ETB trigger. Second verse, same as the first: these are perfect targets for flicker effects. If we can take advantage of these triggers more than once, we will be able to keep up with most of our opponents on ramp and can even end the game with most of our lands on the battlefield.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Pristine Talisman"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Orazca Relic"></div></div>
<p>Finally, we have a couple of mana rocks. While these are both suboptimal choices among their peers, they have the ability to gain us life, therefore synergizing with the strategy that underpins our deck. This, perhaps, is not necessarily the best reason to run them over better two-mana options, but we should also consider what we are ramping to. Our commander costs three mana, and is actually better on turn six than he is on turn two. With these two ramp effects, we can pace ourselves and hopefully take advantage of their lifegain with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Well of Lost Dreams" href="#" target="_blank">Well of Lost Dreams</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> or <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Dawn of Hope" href="#" target="_blank">Dawn of Hope</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> rather than rushing to nothing.</p>
<hr />
<h2><strong>The Deck</strong></h2>
<p>With all this in mind, let’s put it all together with a deck list. With all of our packages, there is little room for extra tech, but there are still a few notable inclusions.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Citywide Bust"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Scapegoat"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Enduring Renewal"></div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Among these, we have a suite of precision mass removal effects including Citywide Bust, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Slaughter the Strong" href="#" target="_blank">Slaughter the Strong</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Dusk // Dawn" href="#" target="_blank">Dusk // Dawn</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. With our low curve, tiny creatures, and blink effects, these removal spells will disrupt our opponents much, much more than us. Scapegoat is an all-star in this deck. For one mana at instant speed, this is a potent way to protect our creatures from removal or double up on ETB triggers. This card only sees play in 136 decks total on EDHREC and it deserves consideration not only here, but maybe even in <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Brago, King Eternal" href="#" target="_blank">Brago, King Eternal</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> or <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Roon of the Hidden Realm" href="#" target="_blank">Roon of the Hidden Realm</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> decks. Finally, I have included a combo to end the game that fits with our packages. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Enduring Renewal" href="#" target="_blank">Enduring Renewal</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> combined with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Memnite" href="#" target="_blank">Memnite</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Blasting Station" href="#" target="_blank">Blasting Station</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> can win us the game in a pinch and is easy to assemble for us. Take a look at the list below and, as always, season to taste.</p>

<h1>Underdog in the Zone &amp; the 99</h1>
<p>Hello, everyone! Welcome back to another edition of the <em>Underdog's Corner</em>, where I will do my hardest to convince you to try out a legendary creature that is underappreciated, underplayed, underpowered, or some combination of the three! For today, I want to specifically highlight a card from <em>Dominaria</em> that is currently appearing in under 1,200 decks on EDHREC. What does that equate to? As of today, it ranks around 343 on the most-played white cards list. It even ranks behind <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Sinew Sliver" href="#" target="_blank">Sinew Sliver</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, a random Sliver that probably only sees play in Sliver tribal decks. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Generous Gift" href="#" target="_blank">Generous Gift</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> from <em>Modern Horizons</em> is in over 1,700 decks, and it's only been available for three months! However, not only do I want to talk about this card as a contributing member of the 99, but I also think it has a home as a commander of its own deck. Give it up for this week's contender: <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Teshar, Ancestor&#039;s Apostle" href="#" target="_blank">Teshar, Ancestor&#039;s Apostle</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>!</p>
<h2>Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle</h2>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Teshar, Ancestor&#039;s Apostle"></div></div>
<p>As a flying four-mana 2/2, Teshar is not going to be mixing it up in combat. However, his stats aren't why we're interested in him.</p>
<h4>Whenever you cast a historic spell, return target creature card with converted mana cost 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield.</h4>
<p>'Historic' is a "batch" keyword from <em>Dominaria</em>; artifacts, legendary spells, and Sagas are all historic. Legendary spells and Sagas are certainly less prevalent than artifacts, though if we wanted to build around just those, there are three Sagas and about 200 legendary white cards. However, since there are still nearly 1,800 artifacts to choose from, we'll end up leaning heavily on the artifact theme.</p>
<p>The name of the game with Teshar is recursion, specifically recurring creatures with converted mana costs of three or less. This is something that white loves to do, and I really appreciate that Teshar brings a consistent engine to the theme. With that said, we're going to need to put creatures in our graveyard consistently to get value out of our flying legend.</p>
<hr />
<h2>We Must Construct Additional Constructs</h2>
<p>Glancing through Teshar's High Synergy and Top Cards on EDHREC tells a good story of what we can expect from this deck:</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Junk Diver"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Salvage Scout"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Scrapyard Recombiner"></div></div>
<p>Recursion engine pieces such as <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Myr Retriever" href="#" target="_blank">Myr Retriever</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Junk Diver" href="#" target="_blank">Junk Diver</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> rank the highest on Teshar's most-played cards lists, as well as cards like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Restoration Specialist" href="#" target="_blank">Restoration Specialist</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Salvage Scout" href="#" target="_blank">Salvage Scout</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. This core of cards is going to be important to keep our engine running smoothly.</p>
<p>As one example, we can sacrifice <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Salvage Scout" href="#" target="_blank">Salvage Scout</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> to grab <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Myr Retriever" href="#" target="_blank">Myr Retriever</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> from our graveyard, which can then bring back Salvage Scout with Teshar's trigger. After that, we can sacrifice Myr Retriever to grab another artifact out of our yard. This combo can fuel itself over and over until we empty our graveyard of artifacts. This type of combo is crucial to having Teshar run smoothly, and to that end we're including a lot of redundancy in the deck.</p>
<p>Now that we've set up this shell, we can decide how we want to fill out the rest of the deck. One card that caught my attention was <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Scrapyard Recombiner" href="#" target="_blank">Scrapyard Recombiner</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. It's currently the third most popular newly-released card for Teshar, and it's not too hard to see why: the Recombiner is a veritable Swiss Army Knife for this deck, checking off nearly every box that we could possibly want; it's a creature, it's historic, and it can dump itself into the yard while also tutoring key pieces. While "Construct Tribal" doesn't really exist under a cohesive theme, this gives us an incentive to look into what Constructs are available, as we can repeatedly tutor them to our hand. <em>Wizards</em> has created a lot of great artifact creatures over the years, but leaning towards ones that share this creature type could help us break any ties when deciding which creatures to include.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Myr Battlesphere"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Kuldotha Forgemaster"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Scrap Trawler"></div></div>
<p>Thankfully, Constructs can fill a lot of different roles in our deck. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Myr Battlesphere" href="#" target="_blank">Myr Battlesphere</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> can't be recurred by Teshar's ability, but who needs that when Battlesphere is a threat on its own? For other threatening Constructs, we also have access to <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Cataclysmic Gearhulk" href="#" target="_blank">Cataclysmic Gearhulk</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> for a partial Wrath, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Scuttling Doom Engine" href="#" target="_blank">Scuttling Doom Engine</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> or <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Traxos, Scourge of Kroog" href="#" target="_blank">Traxos, Scourge of Kroog</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> for beaters.</p>
<p>We can include utility cards like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Kuldotha Forgemaster" href="#" target="_blank">Kuldotha Forgemaster</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. If we follow this path, we have a two-step tutor that can let us find any artifact in our deck and put it into play. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Foundry Inspector" href="#" target="_blank">Foundry Inspector</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is another great card that offers a discount for each time we want to trigger Teshar's ability. Not only that, it opens up more options for combos with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Krark-Clan Ironworks" href="#" target="_blank">Krark-Clan Ironworks</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, if we feel so inclined to include enough pieces for it.</p>
<p>Speaking of Krark-Clan Ironworks, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Scrap Trawler" href="#" target="_blank">Scrap Trawler</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, a common piece for Ironworks combos, also happens to be a Construct, and yes, you should include it in the deck. We're going to need to put creatures into the yard often, and a good number of them will be artifact creatures. Whenever an artifact dies, we get to return one to our hand that has a lesser converted mana cost. This gives us a great way of recurring cards, especially when combined with a mana-producing sacrifice outlet like Ironworks.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Sipping on Haterade</h2>
<p>While artifact recursion is a powerful engine, we're going to need other creatures to recur, and Teshar's stipulation of a specific converted mana cost defines the subset of creatures we need to pull from. Typically, these creatures aren't going to be impactful enough to win the game on their own, but they can certainly provide utility to either enhance our strategy or hinder our opponents. We're going to borrow a strategy from Legacy's well-established 'Death and Taxes' archetype: slowing down our opponent enough to get our engine online.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Tocatli Honor Guard"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Grand Abolisher"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Ranger-Captain of Eos"></div></div>
<p>If you didn't notice, many of the creatures included in our list so far have no enter-the-battlefield effects. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Tocatli Honor Guard" href="#" target="_blank">Tocatli Honor Guard</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Hushwing Gryff" href="#" target="_blank">Hushwing Gryff</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> both give us easily recurrable versions of <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Torpor Orb" href="#" target="_blank">Torpor Orb</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> to shut down such strategies. In metas that I've played in, Torpor Orb isn't a common sight, so most people don't build around it. However, if it were to hit the battlefield, there are plenty of decks that would quickly get shut down. The second deck I ever built, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Roon of the Hidden Realm" href="#" target="_blank">Roon of the Hidden Realm</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, got shut down by a player playing the Orb, and on that day I learned a harsh lesson about (not) diversifying the threats in my deck.</p>
<p><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Grand Abolisher" href="#" target="_blank">Grand Abolisher</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ranger-Captain of Eos" href="#" target="_blank">Ranger-Captain of Eos</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> perform similar functions by helping us shut down opponents' interactions on our turn. Additionally, the Ranger-Captain offers versatility by tutoring up a creature with converted mana cost 1 or less. It's a little odd to advocate for a creature with an ETB effect after discussing three cards that stifle those abilities, but the flow of the game will hardly make that an issue as you have control over when you deploy those effects. What are some good targets for Ranger-Captain? Right off the bat is either <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mother of Runes" href="#" target="_blank">Mother of Runes</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> or <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Giver of Runes" href="#" target="_blank">Giver of Runes</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. Consistently handing out protection is a powerful tool. We can also find <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Memnite" href="#" target="_blank">Memnite</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> or <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ornithopter" href="#" target="_blank">Ornithopter</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> for a zero-cost reanimation spell with our commander.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Stoneforge Mystic"></div></div>
<p>Lastly for our Death and Taxes line-up, we have a classic: <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Stoneforge Mystic" href="#" target="_blank">Stoneforge Mystic</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> has always been an incredibly powerful <em>Magic </em>card, and tutoring for any Equipment gives us a lot of flexibility. Having access to <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Skullclamp" href="#" target="_blank">Skullclamp</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> immediately? How about <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Conqueror&#039;s Flail" href="#" target="_blank">Conqueror&#039;s Flail</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> to stave off interaction? Or maybe even a <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Diviner&#039;s Wand" href="#" target="_blank">Diviner&#039;s Wand</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> as a combo finisher? If we throw in a sacrifice outlet, we can sacrifice Mystic and then recur her with Teshar's ability to tutor for more Equipment.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Loop Around</h2>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Teshar, Ancestor&#039;s Apostle"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Myr Retriever"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Krark-Clan Ironworks"></div></div>
<p>While we've covered quite a bit of ground, don't lose sight of the fact that Teshar is an incredibly powerful engine in the command zone. I won't list out every combo that's available, but I'll leave you with one example:</p>
<p><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Myr Retriever" href="#" target="_blank">Myr Retriever</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Skullclamp" href="#" target="_blank">Skullclamp</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Krark-Clan Ironworks" href="#" target="_blank">Krark-Clan Ironworks</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and a zero-cost artifact allow us to dig through our entire deck with infinite colorless mana. From there, winning should be trivial, assuming we've built our deck decently well.</p>
<p>I hope this brief look at our resident Bird Wizard has given you something to think about! Teshar is an incredibly unique <em>Magic </em>card, and even if you only include him in the 99, I think you won't be disappointed. Below is a list that I hope will inspire some creative decklists; there's so many directions you can go!</p>
