Title: 3 color combo
Post by: AdamS on September 30, 2013, 07:26:45 PM
i am trying to think of a way to beat my friends {Kaalia of the Vast} deck and so far i havent found any good combos to use on the deck my color preference is {B}{U}{W} or {U}{R}{W}

With blue red white you have access to a lot of tuck cards that really can mess with  {Kaalia of the Vast}.
Examples:
{Hinder}
  {Void Stalker}
{Oblation}
{Chaos Warp}
Also, if you can stop her from attacking with {Pacifism} effects that ends her ability. I could see a  {Numot, the Devastator} deck to keep their lands low and make it a pillowfort control deck. Hope that helps

Tuck! The best way to deal with KotV is to either tuck, or instant speed removal (as already stated above) plenty of options with RWU...  Only a few options for commander there

Some fun cards I thought of:
{Dissipation Field}
{Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker}
Also some not so fun cards (in my opinion):
{Meddling Mage}
{Pithing Needle}
{Nevermore}

{Declaration of Naught} is pretty good at hating someone's commander pretty bad ;)

On card that I like for an anti-Kaalia deck is  {Baneslayer Angel}.

Or you could just take the popular route for esper and just play a cheap {Zurich the Enchanter} deck. {Ethereal Armor} on Zur after you fetch {Web of Inertia} and {Rest in Peach} is fun.
Edit: or, at least, it's fun for whoever is piloting the deck.

No, because Zur's ability doesn't target, you still get to tutor them into play into him, you just can't cast them from your hand. That's where cards like {Brainstorm} help in this deck. Also, shroud doesn't cause enchantments to fall off, protection from a color does.

i knew pro color did but i thought shroud did to because if u enchant the creature its targeted by the enchantment so i didnt think the ones on him would stay on him

I know, right? One of the many reasons Zur is hated on and feared. Since the ice age, his name was only a whisper...then shmakablam!!! 1 well placed {Armageddon} and the whole world goes to poop.
