A terrible idea I had for edh. Basically a pillow fort with cards like {Sphere of Safety} and {Ghostly Prison}. Looking for suggestions to improve.

I thought I was the only one who used {Mind Unbound}. It's nice to not be lonely

It's a good cheap card. It's not {Jace the Mindsculptor} good but it replaces him nicely and doesn't draw as much hate.

Just to get an idea, but are you going for a sort of building board state in a not so threatening way, protecting yourself with things like  {Sphere of Safety} until you drop some bomb and freak out everyone?

Basically. Kind of fits the flavor of the untouchable Olympus.

This looks terrifying. {Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre} and {Novablast Wurm} would work nicely here.

 {Artisan of Kozilek} maybe?

I've considered Ulamog and decided not to add him. Novablast would be brutal for sure. Also thought about {Magister Sphinx} and {Arbiter of the Ideal}

:D Door of Destinies would be fun too, having it untapped with the mana open guarantees no one without a {krosan grip} is going to do anything mean to you....

It does the same as automaton and is progressive.

 {Konda's Banner}
Title: Re: Karona's Pantheon

Not that one but its like banner of war and its got the skull and crossbones on it
Title: Re: Karona's Pantheon
Post by: ApexPredator on February 24, 2014, 11:27:32 PM
- {Merciless Eviction} this shouldn't have made the cut exiling creatures with my gods turned into creatures would be terrible.
- {Bident of Thassa} cantrips for attacking is great and since it's one of the weapons I wanted it in here but there are better cards
- {Bow of Nylea} I don't see this doing much at all.

+ {Novablast Wurm} great suggestion with most of my creatures being indestructible Novablast will put in some work.
+ {Adaptive Automotan} giving all my gods an additional +1/+1 seems pretty good.
+ {Arbiter of the Ideal}  she seems pretty good here as she will increase the count for {Sphere of Safety} right now my only way to tap her is attacking though. She may be cut for something else later on.

{Coat of Arms}?

I wouldn't suggest that as it could backfire vs a tribal deck with more creatures. (It gives the bonus to all creatures.)

{Vow of flight} and the rest of the vows?

End up pumping your karona, or just making other nasty creatures on the board no longer a threat...

These are possible depending if I feel some cards are small impact. Not to worried about karona as she is mostly for the flavor aspect.

What do you guys think of  {Plea for Guidance}
Title: Re: Karona's Pantheon
Post by: Sparkle Ninja on February 25, 2014, 09:43:33 PM
Unless you already have {Three Dreams} in the deck it isn't really very good. Three dreams is way better than it

That hits auras. Plea for guidance can search out gods. I have zero auras in this deck so it wouldn't help to much.
