Why not add a few {unsummon}s and an {alters reap} or two to have fun with the messenger.

Why would I pay life? It's for them, not me. Why would I need to bounce creatures?

I like versatility. That's why there is a little of this and that. Mind you, I've never seen a deck anything like this posted. Theme is make them lose life, almost a BDW lol.

{Bloodflow Connesiuer} and {Gravecrawler}?

Everyone commenting, I hope you recognize the point is to make them make tough decisions. The copies are to copy cards to make tough decisiOns. What if I phantasmal image Geralf messenger? He comes right back. Good combo IMO.

True but with what I posted if you have blood artist out you have two abilities from a death that comes back over and over...but the image messenger thing is amazing! And a ton of fun to play!

The point of the {unsummon} over {vapor snag} is it gives you options to bounce your creature as well as theirs.

I shouldnt have To explain why youd want to bounce your own creature but for 💩's and 😂 here it goes.

Say your messenger comes down dealing two damage. Then next turn is killed in combat coming back and dealing two more. Now you unsummon that messenger and replay it dealing another two damage....  Fresh messenger. Ready to die and do it again. I sujested {alters reap} for this interaction as well. Just my 2c

Vapor snag Is situationally better than unsummon. It's purpose is to unsummon opponents and as a last resort do mine. As in a fatty, not some dinky 0/1 or 3/2.

Alters reap is ok, however I don't have that many undying creatures. I wouldnt want to just sac a blood artist. I'll test it but I have my doubts.

Replace the Shrines with {Gravecrawler} it'd be super beneficial to the deck! I think I'm gonna build a version of this..is that cool? I really really like the deck haha

Shrine was something I threw In since idk what else. Gravecrawler Is alright. No problem if you want to use it. I love making combo decks and I'm glad when other people like them😄
