    Insidious roots is pretty great on its own for dork-ifying your tokens. Necroptence having individual triggers for each card breaks this wide open, though.

      Insidious roots is nice in modern as well... you can use it together with Wheel of Sun and Moon, in a creature cycling deck, just lands, creatures that cycle, and 4 copies of both Roots and Wheel. And with a Samut, Tyrant Smasher or Runadi Behemoth Caller or a Roar of Resistance, etc. You can have those tokens enter the battlefield with haste which allows you to just make even more tokens.

      @@VinegarAndSaltedFries I would take digital and minimalist over pretentious, lore-breaking, mood-breaking or deliberately ugly any day of the week. I don’t quite like the general art direction in MtG right now. There still are artistic bangers, but they feel like “cameos” instead of “mainstream”. A lot of the alternative art sets were cool though (not MkM - this one’s shite in my opinion).

    another way of having fun is to make a deck based on descent with mostly creatures cards and self mill in it and then just have a couple gaea's blessing that will keep reshuffling everything so you can keep milling and descending forever

  • @troys50
    @troys50 7 месяцев назад +1

    I envision a slightly less chaotic deck. Instead of necropotence, where you lose out on the cards you exile, what if instead you go the self mill route, and use forever young to return your creatures to your deck, allowing for a double dip on the Insidious Roots. Golgari has tons of creatures that self mill and return permanants, such a eternal witness (The 4 cmc one with Eternalize, not the 3cmc one that's not on arena). Loses to GY exiling effects, but afaik, nobody runs that in normal games. Best of 3 will most definitely have them.

  • @bunnface9511
    @bunnface9511 7 месяцев назад +1

    Wait but if necropotence makes you skip your drawstep, and in your turn you dont have more cards to draw because all are milled.
    You shouldn't lose because you have no cards no? Because necropotence skips that step, so you can't get killed for not having any cards in your library, no?

  • @brianarsuaga5008

    Only Chris can queue up in Timeless and play against people playing decks that would be bad even if they were being played in a more appropriate format. I’m surprised the lifegain deck wasn’t running 138 cards.
    It’s a cool deck, but it would be nice to see it go up against an actual Timeless deck.

    • @DarthZerg
      @DarthZerg 7 месяцев назад +2

      The original wording doesn’t change anything. Both versions would need to say something like “exile instead” to be any different. Since they don’t, you discard from your hand to the graveyard then exile. In fact the wording of the original version is why Necro works that way at all
