Hilarious! I have an extremely fun Vial/Saka Clone tribal deck my pod hates and half the time I am cloning their best pieces instead of mine. It was brutal when Sakashima’s student etb as opponents omniscience then spark double entered as the same opponents Avacyn angel of hope. Clones are my second favourite tribe after slivers :-) keep up the awesome work.
I actually had a similar idea for Miirym when it was spoiled - sure, it's gonna go in my Ur-Dragon deck, but by itself, this build is ridiculously good and I'm here for it! Definitely interested in seeing the clone-only build, too!
@@Turntwobounceland The problem with Mirror Box is that it only pumps nontoken creatures with the same name. And, the tokens are nonlegendary so they don't get the legendary creature pump. If it were just to ignore the legend rule, Sakashima of a Thousand Faces is enough. Once you have at least one nonlegendary token copy of Miirym, you can have every clone just enter the battlefield as a copy of the nonlegendary token copy, thus having no need to bypass the legend rule at all.
@@charlied8284 While those could be quite devastating, I honestly find them to be winmore. You're already creating dozens of flying 6/6's. Plus they're getting their power doubled, dealing damage when entering the battlefield, etc. Games are already ending pretty quickly.
I’m currently building a Miirym deck, and I am using a lot of flicker effects but I love the cloning ones you are using so I’m definitely going to add a lot of them. Should be hilarious once it gets going
Unfortunately the majority of my clone cards are in my rogues deck lol, this is a fantastic way to go about builing miirym and i love how generally cost effective it can be. Great tech!
I love this build. And will probably be making a very similar build. Partial dragon, partial clones. It’s hard to justify any dragons with mana costs higher than 5 though when you could just play your commander and copy him.
Thank you for the video I took a similar approach with maybe a little more dragon I haven’t tried it yet tho as I am building an omnath gate deck first Myriam is gonna replace my Orvar deck that is too play alone
I’m leaning into bounce tribal more so I can abuse thinks like cloudstone curio and thassa god of the sea effects animar and song of creation are allstars in the deck as well
Nice! That works super well too because you can get the original clone back when the copy token enters the battlefield, allowing you to cast it multiple times in a game. Then again, Cloudstone Curio was always a busted card ;)
While I didnt go full cray-cray with Miirym, where I only included Identity thief, spark double, and irenicus vile duplication; and focus more on dragon tribal, I did use this strategy for my Adrix and Nev-deck, aiming to go full cray-cray there with copies of Adrix and nev, with sub-theme of stealing or cloning other ppl's creatures too.
I don't make crazy amounts of Miirym but I do focus on her triggers with cards like Panharmonicon and Strionic Resonator. I make maybe 1 or 2 copies of Miirym and then blast in Scourage and Terror nuking players for upwards of 60 damage from the sheer amount of copies of dragons and the doubling down on the triggered abilities. It's wild but very fun. Just be careful Miirym is an on sight target for removal since she goes so crazy. Have fun and enjoy playing her
Panharmonicon is definitely a busted card in Miirym! I don't worry about spot removal too much simply due to all of the tokens and interaction I already have in the deck. Once I started cloning Miirym, any spot removal will have to be had in multipled to get rid of all of them. Even if the original is gone, so long as I have copies of Miirym, I can keep exponentially growing my Miirym clone army.
Im still sort of going for a dragon tribal with Mirrym coz I wanna use some of my dragons. However, I will mix in some cloning cards coz my friends have an Eldrazi Titan that really annoys me. At least if it emerges, I can use it against them for major lolz. Thanks for this 😁
You're welcome! Glad it was useful! Nice! The best thing about the clones is that you can always just clone Miirym when there isn't anything else better to clone. But if your opponents have eldrazi titans than those are obviously better choices, lol.
@@TheCommanderTavern Just a thought. I can even use Double Major. The card didn't say it's a copy token. So correct me if I'm wrong. Will Miirym's effect trigger?
Something worth noting, when you have a clone enter as a copy of miirym, you still had a nontoken dragon enter, so the clone will earn you a non legendary token copy as well, which will give you something to clone moving forward. Really, as long as you stick the original miirym and resolve a clone and its etb, you don’t particularly have to worry about the legend rule at all because you just make the clones after enter as copies of the non legendary miirym.
Yup, that's exactly what I explain in the video. Once you get that first nonlegendary token copy of Miirym, every clone afterwards should enter as a copy of the nonlegendary token. This means that the legendary rule doesn't matter at all anyways. I explain it in the video with the animation example.
@@TheCommanderTavern you explained it very shortly in the video after i made the comment. But you still seemed to focus in decently heavily on the relevance of the legend rule
@@connorl0204 I did so in order for anyone watching to realize how important it is to not keep cloning the original Miirym; to clone the nonlegendary copies. That way no bad habits are developed.
Chromatic Orrery is too expensive. It'd be better to run Goldspan Dragon instead since it goes infinite with Deadeye Navigator and Ganax. Ganax gives you a treasure token that Goldspan Dragon lets us crack for UU to keep going. Infinite triggers for everything, too (ETB's, LTB's, artifacts cracked, etc.)
@@TheCommanderTavern I guess I didn't think about those 2 interacting with each other, I already have them in my Miirym deck, I'm going to get Deadeye navigator and a few other clone/blink spells for her once I get back to the states.
5:01 why does glasspool mimic not enter as a token when copying the nonlegendary copy of miirym? My friends argue it doesn't trigger miirym because it's a copy of a token and miirym only copies nontoken creatures
Tokens are placeholder objects representing something in the game (in this case, a creature). They are NOT cards. However, if an actual card (in this case, Mirrorpool Mimic) copies a token, the literal card doesn't become a token. Since it's an actual card and not a token, Miirym copies it because it's a nontoken dragon when it enters the battlefield as a copy of the nonlegendary Miirym. Token is not a property nontoken copy effects copy.
Thanks! Glad you liked it! Baba Lysaga is definitely interesting. But, since I feel like she's more for the 99 in a Mazirek deck, I'd have to see if I can get inspired enough to build a whole deck around her.
Yup! Panharmonicon is amazing here! The enchantments are too because they interact directly with Miirym, if nothing else. But them being so expensive, you can definitely not run them at all in the deck (as I mentioned). So thanks for suggesting Panharmonicon since that is such an amazing substitute for any of them!
Nice! I was also always looking for the best commander for clone tribal but was never satisfied with one until Miirym was spoiled :P As mentioned in the video's outro, all the decklist links are in the video's description (even the alternate versions).
I know this is a commander channel, but I would love to run this in a 60 card format. Would that be possible? I wouldn't know how to build it (Just Mirrym, Adrix and Nev, and a bunch of clones?) but the idea seems fun to me.
@@TheCommanderTavern With my group I think a good ramp package would work, unfortunately I'm not very good at setting up my mana base / ramp setups, especially for multicolor. Hypergenesis would be fine, everyone would just think I'm being a little huggy. That being said, my group tends to get quite a few turns in before anyone starts popping off so a slow start isn't too bad.
Exactly, that's what I explain in the video. The original clone gets sacrificed as a state-based action but Miirym still creates a NONLEGENDARY copy of the clone because the clone enters the battlefield as a legendary dragon. Thus, Miirym makes a nonlegendary copy of it. So the original gets sacrificed. However, every other clone you play needs to enter as a copy of the nonlegendary clone. That way it doesn't get sacrificed as a state-based action because it's not a legendary creature. You don't have future clones enter the battlefield as a copy of the original (legendary) Miirym but of the nonlegendary token copy of Miirym courtesy of the original clone.
Unfortunately, Mirror Box is actually ultimately useless here. The tokens Miirym creates are nonlegendary, so there's no need to worry about the legend rule. Speaking of tokens, Mirror Box doesn't count tokens with its final ability. So all it would do in the deck is give +1/+1 to a mere handful of cards.
@@TheCommanderTavern well mirror box allow all your clone that do not modify the legendary close to stay if needed and the +1/+1 boost all the one that are not token so the real and the clones. The token are counting for thr +1/+1 just not giving it to them
@@mHysteresis Not really. Once you clone Miirym the first time, you have your clones enter as a copy of the NONLEGENDARY Miirym token in order to get TWO more Miirym copies instead of one because the original will die as a state-based action. So you have your subsequent clones copy the nonlegendary token copies. That way you only ever lose one clone once. You don't ever copy the original Miirym again if you have its nonlegendary tokens on the board. Those are the ones you copy with clones afterwards. The deck doesn't have enough legendary creatures to warrant including Mirror Box; it doesn't count tokens. And the legend rule only affects the first ever clone, not any of the subsequent ones. It's a wasted slot here.
That is a self-referencing line of text. That just means that when Miirym itself enters the battlefield, it doesn't copy itself. Same thing happens with the clone. When the clone enters the battlefield as a copy of Miirym, it doesn't make a copy of itself. However, the SEPARATE Miirym already on the battlefield (the original one) will clone that new Miirym (the clone) because it's a DIFFERENT dragon entering the battlefield. So the new Miirym triggers the old Miirym, not itself. This is why it works.
@@TheCommanderTavern thats what I was thinking as well. But so far your the only other person that has thought up copying miirym. Once I saw him get spoiled I instantly wanted to do it as well.

Since you're making so many tokens of Miirym, you need Full Flowering. With Klauth (well, two of him) I made 48 copies of Miirym in a single turn. What do you think about Moritte? She can clone any of your nonland permanents,Like the Clever Impersonator, but if she clones a creature it enters with two +1/+1 counters. You know what's better than Miirym? An 8/8 Miirym! Or maybe you already hit Miirym with a spark double so you have 1 6/6, 2 7/7, and 4 9/9 Miiryms. One game I copied my panharmonicon, in the next game I copied my Mana Crypt and died to the coin flip lol i've got like an 80% Crypt failure rate
Full Flowering is definitely a busted card but I feel like its winmore. If you already have a ton of Miirym, you should be winning the game by then. Moritte is definitely a good enough clone but I didn't include it because it would only be copying other creatures besides Miirym. Because it can't even copy a Miirym clone because it will always be legendary. But it could definitely fit in decks as another clone since it'll make a second copy of whatever nonlegendary creature you choose thanks to Miirym. Damn, RNGsus really abandoning you to that Mana Crypt 😆
@@TheCommanderTavern Miirym says the token it makes isn't legendary but Moritte says the copy is legendary, i wasn't sure which order things happened, but i suppose you're right.
You're not going to believe this but I ran into almost this exact play line tonight, except it was even more busted. Miirym, spark double, OG Clone, Ghostly flicker Miirym and spark double get 8 copies. Then Moiritte who died but left me with 14 token copies, 28 total, minion of the mighty cheating Niv mizzet into play making 28 copies of him. Lol, still didn't win against mono white avacyn who's player couldn't take any damage from creatures.
@@Fausto_4841 The thing is, Moritte says itself on the card that it's going to be legendary in its rules text. So even though Miirym might create a copy that isn't legendary, Moritte's rule text adds the legendary supertype to itself after the fact (and thus its token copies, too).

Miirym, spark double, OG Clone, Ghostly flicker Miirym and spark double get 8 copies. Then Moiritte who died but left me with 14 token copies, 28 total, minion of the mighty cheating Niv mizzet into play making 28 copies of him.
Lol, still didn't win against mono white avacyn who's player couldn't take any damage from creatures.
@@Fausto_4841 The thing is, Moritte says itself on the card that it's going to be legendary in its rules text. So even though Miirym might create a copy that isn't legendary, Moritte's rule text adds the legendary supertype to itself after the fact (and thus its token copies, too).
@@Fausto_4841 Oof!!! What an amazing boardstate! Sucks that you didn't pull the win but that was super impressive! I bet it was hella fun though :P
Why do you only have 2 forests in the deck list?
It doesn't need more than 2 of each basic land.
Personally I prefer panharmonicon in my Miirym deck
With astral dragon and cursed mirror
Parallel Lives and flameshadow conjuring and molten echoes
Zirilian of the Claw is great too
Panharmonicon is pretty effing tasty in Miirym, for damned sure. Astral Dragon and Flameshadow Conjuring is some next level spice as well. Epic!
