Title: Put your differences aside
Post by: IVRafa on May 20, 2012, 11:53:56 PM
One day in an alternate universe where both {mikaeus, the lunarch} and {mikaeus, the unhallowed} fought against each other, they both met an elder {amoeboid changeling} whose wise words helped them put aside their differences and become two of the greatest battlefield commanders ever.

Use the changelings ability to make lunarch lose his creature types. Since lunarch is not a human anymore he gains undying. Just tap him to give everyone a counter, he dies but comes back with a counter. Rinse and repeat until unhallowed and your creatures are buff enough.

Nice!  Only once Mickey comes back from the dead, he'll be human again.  Anytime a creature leaves the BF and returns, it forgets everything of its former self.  So, you can do this once a turn.  Although I guess you were driving at that anyway since Good Mickey would have summoning sickness anyway.

You could also change the text on Evil Mickey to say "other non-monkey creatures" using {Artificial Evolution}.

Do that and add in {Urabrask, the Hidden} :D

That's a good idea, but too many colors I think.  How about getting the two Mickeys to settle their difference over a {Thousand-Year Elixir}?   ;D

I like it..

Meanwhile, Mr {Pentavus} Snr and a bunch of peasants forming into an {unruly mob} are standing over by an old {lumberknot} watching it all go down.

You need to make up a story as you're playing your opponent. 😂 That'd be so annoying!  Like a tea party with your cards in front of them. "...and then Mr. {Flayer of the Hatebound} sits down next to Good Mickey and says 'You simply MUST come back again.'"  😄😄😄

Would {Amobeia Changling} also work with {Kiki-Jiki, the Mirror Breaker} or does it only change the goblin part?

Not sure what you mean, but Legendary isn't a creature type.

Wait a minute. I don't think this will work. Due to good Mickey already having a +1/+1 counter on him, negating the undying. Unless I'm missing something.

You tap him and remove the counter, then he dies

No, the legend rule means both creature have to have the exact same name. It's different than the Planeswalker rule.

[/quote] oh, I was always told if both the mikaeus were on the field at the same time they'd kill each other by legend rule because there's only one mikaeus by story...

So you can have {kamahl, fist of krosa} and {kamahl, pit fighter} out at the same time?

but having two {sakashima the imposter} copying different stuff will legend rule them.
