Realm Razer also has the old-school wording where the exile and return triggers are in two different paragraphs, which means if you remove it from play while the ETB is on the stack (either filckering, destroying, returning to hand, etc) then the lands will remain exiled permanently. If you're feeling like losing a friend group or anything.
Recycle and Null Profusion are both amazing. I love them in Muldrotha. Who cares about discarding my hand, and I churn through my deck so fast it make heads spin. Also, dredge.
I already play a couple of these, reign of the pit is in my demon tribal deck as removal with a massive upside, and Razia's purification is in my Ramos deck because it's a semi-onesided board whipe that meets requirements for the companion
I play Razia's Purification in my Narset deck and it's basically bonkers, game ending usually and people ends raging because doesn't matter which permanents they choose, it is always wrong, best under-a-dollar card! EDH Deckbuilding thx for showcasing these cards
I play Realm Razer in Obuun when I know someone can kill it, for the insane Landfall. Razia's Purification is in Atla Palani, where the eggs will hatch and I have just enough lands left to make more.
Reknit is interesting. I debated it as part of an Orvar support suite in a Bant-Populate deck. But there's so many 1-mana options. And that's without looking into Tamiyo's Safekeeping that was just printed. And we also have Blacksmith's Skill from MH2.
Here's a small list that could make another installment of this series: 1. Ghostly Pilferer (Always draws at least 2 cards) 2. Synod Sanctum (Any permanent protection - great in mutate or ETB decks) 3. Scout's Warning (Flash plus a cantrip) 4. Glory (Way to easy to find ways to discard this protection spell) 5. Artificial Evolution (the opportunity to change creature types on the field OR stack comes up more than you know)
About the art for reincarnation: imagine being a soldier fearing for you life, then suddenly becoming a happy little plant things for the rest of your days.
Recycle is amazing, i play it in a premodern deck and just go through my library then feldons cane it Also it would be a crime not to mention how much i love the art, definitely want to make a Foglio tribal deck haha!
Reincarnation seems like it would be really good. The only problem is there needs to be a creature in the graveyard already. You would definitely need black in the deck to run Entomb or Buried Alive. It would also work really well with Pattern of Rebirth.
Recycle and Null Profusion: If you put out a Thought Vessel or the like after, you get the benefits without the "drawback". Also: Realm Razor and Tunnel Ignus is a great, janky win-con.
Important note about Realm Razer, since it’s written as two abilities you can sac it in response to its own ability, then the second ability resolves first and the lands are gone forever
realm razor might be the missing piece i needed for this landfall group hug deck i've been thinking about where you force people to get lands with a zozu effect out
There's gotta be some kinda infinite loop with Realm Razer. I'm thinking you need, Clouds tone Curio + Whitemane Lion + Amulet of Vigor. Then you keep taping and floating all the mana to cast your creature's. You probably need at least 9 lands on the field but I think that works for infinite mana, infinite etb, infinite landfall
something important about Recycle is that maximum hand size uses the most recent timestamp, so if you play recycle and then afterwards a reliquary tower you essentially remove that downside
I've played against Realm Razor in a Naya stompy deck, where the Razor was just a finisher. When your trying to win with just a couple beat sticks, you usually need a few turns to finish every off, and waiting til your in a commanding position and then wiping out the lands is a pretty good way to do it. And it's not as brutal as an Armageddon, cause you can remove the Razor if you have any way of making mana to get your lands back. Certainly going to annoy some people, but I thought it was a clever finisher that's not as groan inducing as straight up land destruction
I'm pretty sure Realm Razer has a Worldgorger Dragon effect where if you kill it while the first trigger is on the stack, everyone's land will stay exiled.
I found a very nasty combo with Realm Razer I play it in my Rienne deck, where I want to sac multicolor stuff, so I can benifit of etb's and stuff Realm Razor is nasty in this! If you have Rienne, Realm Razor and a sac outlet on Board - you can sac Realm Razor at the end of your last opponents second Main, you get Realm Razor back to hand and you just can repeat this every turn. Its still interactable enough that it is ok as a value engine for landfall and a accepted win con in my playgroup
If you're in Golgari, Rushed Rebirth is sort of like Reincarnation, but making sure you always get the new creature with the trade off of a lower mana value
I used to run razia's purification in my hofri ghostforge deck but some people got too salty when I played it. Its pretty good in the deck though since you keep hofri alive, wipe everyones stuff and all of your other creatures stick around.
Could Reknit be used in some kind of untap strategy, like Inspired? Or it's a way to have a creature tap without attacking, maybe in that Archelos "if this is tapped ____" theme.
I finally started theory crafting my next Mardu deck and decided on mass land destruction. Reign of Filth will let me sac all of my lands for accelerated mana, then can cast Balancing Act (a “fixed” version of balance) forcing my opponents to sac all of their lands too and then I can bring everything back with a Second Sunrise or asymmetrically with Faith’s Reward. It’s going to be quite the challenge to not be able to use green.
I think the bigger challenge is going to be removing all your friends shoes from your backside after doing that lol sounds like a fun deck to me though =P
@@jasonrustmann7535 oh trust me, I know. It’s shaping up to be a deck where I am going to have to be very explicit about what the deck does. On the upside, it does give them back their lands, it just pings them for each one coming back onto the battlefield. 😈
@@SWNJim well as long as you're giving them a fair warning (more then i would lol I'd just say "hay just fyi, y'all 'bout to hate me lol) then they shouldn't complain to much and sneaker/rectum removal should be at a minimum
@@jasonrustmann7535 LMAO. Yeah, when I started thinking about the deck, I knew exactly how the reaction might be. Thankfully I have Edgar Markov, Licia, Queen Marchesa, and Karona to also play. I can’t guarantee someone would be much happier with them though. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@SWNJim as an Edgar guy myself, yeah he don't get much love either lol I'm working on a Eldndra the dusk rose deck to get my vampire token army fix, but with less group hate hopefully lol
You hit the nail on the head with Razia’s and cataclysm. Those cards are only good at securing victory. If you are behind even a little bit, and you don’t have the best thing after it resolves, you are so doomed.
Can anyone tell me why I dont see this card in EDH , Sphinx of the Second Sun. It give you back your mana invested after your combat, untap your permanents, draw you a card and trigger your upkeep trigger a second time.... if they dont deal with it early on your turn it amazing.
Demo can look at any card and see the potential in it. Demo, if you see this comment, I'm challenging you to make a "Partner Without" themed deck using The Prismatic Piper as your commander.
Rituals aren't usually good cards in EDH, outside some niche deck (Producing a few mana at the cost of card disadvantage is pretty meh wen there's 3 people that can eventually interact with what you play with that mana.) You only really want to play ritual if it can makes you be really ahead, usually in the early turn. Rain of filth force you to sacrifice 3 land to be as good as black ritual, you can't use it turn one or two to get your commander early, and even if the ceiling is higher, if you can't pull an instant win, the cost in term of mana is probably too steep. And even if it is thecnically possible to pull an instant win with torment of hailfire and exsanguinate, i don't think it's worth the risk of getting countered and being left with no land in play. If you really want this kind of effect, repeatable ones are better, play lake of the dead, and a few card to tutor lands...
With recycle, just beware anyone who plays an Hymn to Tourach or any other two-cards discards. It will leave you dead in the water if you don't have an out mechanic.
I had a mizzix with 36 experience counters from proliferating and razia's purification on stack i could have countered but let it resolve and made friends with the mardu player
Rain of filth in krikk would be yet another game ender. Its such a nasty commander and always storms off in some way for a win. I loved the deck but it got boring.
I wish more ppl would run 6 drop or higher commanders like damia that are cool, powerful, but not busted and take time to get out. Edh and cedh need to be made separate formats already.
Realm Razer also has the old-school wording where the exile and return triggers are in two different paragraphs, which means if you remove it from play while the ETB is on the stack (either filckering, destroying, returning to hand, etc) then the lands will remain exiled permanently.
If you're feeling like losing a friend group or anything.
Thank you for this information my friend lol
Try Amulet of Vigor+Flickerform and you have the absolute dominance 😬
Less friends tho, so you have to chose wisely if you want to pull sth off
I put him in urril specifically to do this. People generally aren't to salty if you have uril on board bc the game will end there.
Bless up, good idea
Recycle and Null Profusion are both amazing. I love them in Muldrotha. Who cares about discarding my hand, and I churn through my deck so fast it make heads spin. Also, dredge.
I think Razia's Purification would be really good addition to Osgir, the Reconstructor deck.
Oooh, Realm Razer in a landfall deck is spicy! I think I’ll give that a shot in my Obuun deck.
I already play a couple of these, reign of the pit is in my demon tribal deck as removal with a massive upside, and Razia's purification is in my Ramos deck because it's a semi-onesided board whipe that meets requirements for the companion
Null Profusion is a color shifted version of Recycle in black, which would give you some redundancy in Damia as well.👍
I put realm razer in my k&t lands matter deck for that landfall ability. Saw the card by chance and I’m glad to see it here. Cool card.
I play Razia's Purification in my Narset deck and it's basically bonkers, game ending usually and people ends raging because doesn't matter which permanents they choose, it is always wrong, best under-a-dollar card! EDH Deckbuilding thx for showcasing these cards

Thanks for the cards, now I kind of want to build a white/black deck partly around Reign of the Pit and Custodi Soulbinders!
I think Demo also wants us to put a lot of Vorinclex in our decks
If you like Reign of the Pit, Phyrexian Rebirth might be right up your alley too
Temur sabertooth and realm razer kind of go nutty together. Amulet of vigor too could make that interaction insane
Always looking forward to your videos! Always looking for spicy lesser known cards to throw in my decks!
Suggestion Wingmate Roc. Just attack once then cast it or go with a post combat blink combo. It's a two 3/4 Flying bodies.
About the art for reincarnation: imagine being a soldier fearing for you life, then suddenly becoming a happy little plant things for the rest of your days.
love it, that's the beauty of mtg right there

Oh realm razer. Use to have a 4 color 60 card deck using him, verdant succession, polluted bonds and og ob-nixilis. Good times
something important about Recycle is that maximum hand size uses the most recent timestamp, so if you play recycle and then afterwards a reliquary tower you essentially remove that downside
that is correct. however there still is the downside of skipping your draw step.
Razias purification and teferis protection is hilarious together in my wyleth deck. Its one of my favorite game-enders
I've played against Realm Razor in a Naya stompy deck, where the Razor was just a finisher. When your trying to win with just a couple beat sticks, you usually need a few turns to finish every off, and waiting til your in a commanding position and then wiping out the lands is a pretty good way to do it.

Certainly going to annoy some people, but I thought it was a clever finisher that's not as groan inducing as straight up land destruction
To offset the handsize restriction on Recycle, you can just drop reliquary tower after it.
I'm pretty sure Realm Razer has a Worldgorger Dragon effect where if you kill it while the first trigger is on the stack, everyone's land will stay exiled.
Your suggestions are so clever!
I found a very nasty combo with Realm Razer

A much cheaper alternative to Raging River is Stand or Fall from Invasion. Plus it also affects flying creatures.
I have always loved Recycle, and Null Profusion when it came out. Highly playable and undervalued. Tons of options to negate there downsides now.
Wait a minute... I know you!
I actually wanted to make a deck with Rakshasa Vizier as the commander. Self exile isn't done too often, anymore.
Reign of the Pit is a great Yargle payoff, probably goes great in a Rakdos deck where you have haste enablers
I used to run razia's purification in my hofri ghostforge deck but some people got too salty when I played it. Its pretty good in the deck though since you keep hofri alive, wipe everyones stuff and all of your other creatures stick around.
How about Selective Memory? At one point you'll want to not draw lands, mana rocks/mana dorks, and low impact early game cards; right?
Could Reknit be used in some kind of untap strategy, like Inspired? Or it's a way to have a creature tap without attacking, maybe in that Archelos "if this is tapped ____" theme.
Reign of Chaos is a reference to a game style called the Star Formation gameplay
Reign of the Pit sounds like a card for Yargle. XD
Recycle + Aluren + small creatures like Slivers or Elves = amazing.
torment of hailfire's choice is pretty familiar... that's what tergrids lantern forces. are there other cards that force this same choice?
I finally started theory crafting my next Mardu deck and decided on mass land destruction.

Rain of Filth is a legit cEDH card for the turbo Ad Nauseum decks.
as we seem to be approaching the letter S, have you mentioned Soldevi Adnate before? pet card of mine and great tech for aristocrats
Rakshasa Vizier, kind of always felt it should be legendary :P
You could play Razias Purification, Hold priority, play Teferi's protection, screw everyones and drink the tears of your ennemis.
You hit the nail on the head with Razia’s and cataclysm. Those cards are only good at securing victory. If you are behind even a little bit, and you don’t have the best thing after it resolves, you are so doomed.
2 cards i think people should add into their commander decks is latulla's orders and Thunderous might (better in mono red)
I do like reknit in mirri, the selesnya one, 'cause you get to tap it, otherwise my go to is faith's shield. gotta find a place for reincarnation.
Reincarnation seems pretty solid, i am gonna tro to find a place for it in my Vrondiss deck !
It you sac or destroy Realm Razer at instant speed and before the first trigger resolves you can have the lands remain in exile.
You should mention Keldon Firebombers. In your next video.
You can use Faith's Reward to get ball all the lands you sacrifice to Filth.
Rakshasa Vizier is also great in a Flashback deck
I was looking for a card that made Overlaid Terrain viable, and Realm Razer might be it!
Can anyone tell me why I dont see this card in EDH , Sphinx of the Second Sun. It give you back your mana invested after your combat, untap your permanents, draw you a card and trigger your upkeep trigger a second time.... if they dont deal with it early on your turn it amazing.
Oblivion Sower has a new best friend with Realm Razer wow
Realm Razor+ Tyrant of Discord is the classic "fair" tooth and nail win con
Reign of the Pit question - does this include counters, or just the power printed?
whatever their power was when they died. including any buffs.
Raging river could work well if you have some menace
Demo can look at any card and see the potential in it.
Demo, if you see this comment, I'm challenging you to make a "Partner Without" themed deck using The Prismatic Piper as your commander.
Check out "smoke"...red enchantment.
Regenerate also removes them from combat if they would regenerate
I just grabbed a recycle off my buddy 2 weeks ago, and by this week totally forgpt who I wanted it for 😭
Razia's in a voltron deck with robe of stars or telfairi's protection
Rituals aren't usually good cards in EDH, outside some niche deck (Producing a few mana at the cost of card disadvantage is pretty meh wen there's 3 people that can eventually interact with what you play with that mana.)
You only really want to play ritual if it can makes you be really ahead, usually in the early turn.
Rain of filth force you to sacrifice 3 land to be as good as black ritual, you can't use it turn one or two to get your commander early, and even if the ceiling is higher, if you can't pull an instant win, the cost in term of mana is probably too steep. And even if it is thecnically possible to pull an instant win with torment of hailfire and exsanguinate, i don't think it's worth the risk of getting countered and being left with no land in play.
If you really want this kind of effect, repeatable ones are better, play lake of the dead, and a few card to tutor lands...
FYI - Raging River is not a $33 card -- more like $300 for moderately played!
45€ for non tournament legal version
With recycle, just beware anyone who plays an Hymn to Tourach or any other two-cards discards. It will leave you dead in the water if you don't have an out mechanic.
Raging River is cool.
I had a mizzix with 36 experience counters from proliferating and razia's purification on stack i could have countered but let it resolve and made friends with the mardu player
Recycle+ Rakshsa Visier+ Bojuka Bog/Tormod's Crypt targeting yourself. Not how you would usually use BB or TC but... just saying.
Realm razer almost could be a legendary creature. Just imagine a naya land hate deck lol
Use a library of leng with recycle. You lose nothing.
👍🏻👍🏻
Rain of filth = suicide high tide
Bubbling Muck is High Tide for Swamps.
I killed someone with Reincarnation once. Brought back my opponent's Phage...he was not happy lol.
minute gang!
Rain of filth in krikk would be yet another game ender. Its such a nasty commander and always storms off in some way for a win. I loved the deck but it got boring.
5 minute gang
realm razor and oblivion sower anyone?
That first card is like 300 not 30
11 minute
I wish more ppl would run 6 drop or higher commanders like damia that are cool, powerful, but not busted and take time to get out. Edh and cedh need to be made separate formats already.
You ever play against Damia?
When are they gonna put Demo on game knights??
I second that! Would be so cool. They need someone like him on there doing some awesome janky stuff - and still pulling off a win
