Title: Legendary Spider Deck?
Post by: Condor-Wingman on January 27, 2014, 01:46:29 AM
I know currently (correct me if I am wrong) there are no legendary spider creatures. I want to make a tri-color spider deck. I am thinking RGB, but I might go RGW. With that being said, what would be some good choices until they print a legendary spider?

There are no legendary spiders, you are correct. There are two legendary insects, though, which are...close! {Thriss, Nantuko Primus} and {Xira Arien}

If you want to go spider tribal, oddly enough those two are probably the best color schemes. Mono green might be the best color choice for you, since almost all spiders are green. Jund would be more of a spell-heavy deck, giving you green for your spiders and black and red for a variety of types of support spells.

A quick spider check and I can tell you, the main three colors of spiders are {G}{W}{R}. But most are green. I like you're idea. +1.

Wizards of the Coast? Are you listening?
There are no legendary spiders...
Thanks!

I was thinking about this the other day. I was just thinking how awesome it would be to go fetch {arachnus web} with {arachnus spider} constantly to swing through a fatty.

Go Jund over Naya for reanimation and better removal! {Reanimate}, {Animate Dead} {Abrupt Decay}, {Pernicious Deed}, {Maelstrom Pulse}, {Grave Pact} etc. Also, don't forget {Swarmyard}!!!

I am leaning towards RGB, for {Spider Spawning} it's Flashback cost; very flavorful!

{Dragonlair Spider} and {Giant Trap Door Spider} are the only two... Granted, they're both amazing, especially Dragonlair in EDH.
