Oooh I like this. I did need something to do with that shiny Sygg I picked up.

I can't look at Sygg without thinking he is just a torso...

I need the best {U} and/or {W} draw engines, bounce spells and removal.

Post by: The1337Magician on July 07, 2014, 09:51:53 AM
 {Cyclonic Rift} and {Terminus}?
{Brainstorm}, {Ponder}, {Preordain}, {Serum Visions} etc.?
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: Spencer Addington on July 07, 2014, 05:02:36 PM
I need to cut 7 cards.
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: The1337Magician on July 07, 2014, 06:14:08 PM
Suggestions:
{Aquitect's Will}
{Sea's Claim}
{Spreading Seas}
I don't think you need these for Islandwalk.
1. His Pro ability is enough to pass through
2. Enough people play blue that in certain matchups those do nothing.

Great point. I would +1, but I already did today. I'll catch you tomorrow :)

 {Buried Ruin} seems like a gimme

Updated with the suggestions :))
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: Ekann1 on July 07, 2014, 11:04:14 PM
Maybe {restoration angel} to flicker an equipment tutor dude or Sygg for some reason?
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: Spencer Addington on July 08, 2014, 02:08:07 AM
Sygg has enough protection that he'll never really need to be blinked. Also, other than sygg, the only other creature I could blink that would benefit me would be stoneforge, and there's only 1/100 chance of being drawn. Not enough benefit to have a spot.
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: Spencer Addington on July 08, 2014, 05:19:02 AM
Added more draw and search. It's a shame {gifts ungiven} isn't commander legal :(
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: FustyDavorite on July 08, 2014, 12:17:40 PM
 {Stormtide Leviathan} is a huge lockout.
{Riptide Laboratory} sygg is a wizard after all.
As far as draw goes,  {Consecrated Sphinx} is never bad, or  {Jace Beleren} or even  {Blue Sun's Zenith}
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: The1337Magician on July 08, 2014, 12:44:03 PM
Is  {Talisman of Progress} that good? I've never used them. I guess it is a 2 drop for colored mana. I would have  {Fellwar Stone},  {Mind Stone}, or {Azorius Cluestone} over that.  {Chromatic Lantern} is always good too.
Title: Re: Sygg Voltron
Post by: Spencer Addington on July 08, 2014, 01:42:51 PM
That's a good point. I'll never really need mana fixing since it's only a two color deck, and most of the deck is equipment.

Is {spin into myth} worth a spot? I have tons of board wipes, so it won't make that much of a difference, right?

putting a commander on the bottom is sometimes much better than just killing it.

Or maybe {Worn Powerstone} if we're talking mana rocks for this deck

The deck doesn't need much ramp since everything is pretty cheap.

That makes sense, I was going to say the Urzas lands may prove useful but taking its like 3/100 chance you're going to get them, it's rough so naw.

I would do  {Azorius Signet} over  {Talisman of Progress}

They might, but I'm generally against proxies if I can afford the real card.
