Tsukimi on Getta Teysa THIS!

Crow_Umbra I haven't had a chance to playtest Wake the Dead yet but I have always wanted to find a good home for Inkshield so I'll have to test it and see how it plays, great suggestions as always.

Afterlife Insurance and Ophiomancer are at the top of my switch in list, as of now I'm on the side of extra fodder because the decks needs a lot to work. Your Gorgussy deck was also great inspo for some exciting group drain triggers!

Thank you for reaching out Tsukimi, I hope you're well.

Teysa is a classic, and it looks like you've got a really solid foundation going so far, especially utilizing KibaAlpha's deck as a primer.

You have a decent chunk of the cards I was going to recommend either already in your deck, or in your Maybe Board. Maybe you could swap a couple of your redundant 1 or 2 drops for something like Afterlife Insurance, Bloodghast, Ophiomancer, or Warren Soultrader.

I do like the inclusion of Wake the Dead as a cheeky means of getting some of your little goons back for some more death triggers. Maybe you could consider swapping it for Inkshield? I imagine you would probably be paying a pretty similar rate with Wake the Dead, in terms of mana spent, a lot of the time. Could be a more effective means of blanking aggro damage at you, and also setting yourself up with a bunch of tokens to either dome somebody or chuck into one of your aristocrats engines. It's definitely more pricey compared to Wake the Dead.

Love this deck, I have a similar one. Inkshield and Descent into Avernus are both cool cards that can really change the game in your favor.

Damn is solid removal here.

Shadrix Silverquill is an excellent source of go-wide +1+1 counters.

Reconnaissance is great in any deck where you turn stuff sideways. This card has a few hidden tricks up it's sleeve and feels almost like cheating if you know what you're doing with it (look at my Edgar Markov deck description if you aren't familiar).

Inkshield feels like low hanging fruit, but it makes Inklings.

Stroke of Midnight/Generous Gift if you find you need more versatile removal.

Some stories simply write themselves.

Just imagine the pain this little bastard would bring to a table. Basically having Darien, King of Kjeldor with an integrated Inkshield feels terrible. I'd love to build this, but this makes you pretty much invincible and even gives you a wincon if anyone dares to attack you.

Your build is beefy and I love it! I've noticed you making solid suggestions on other builds and would like to get your thoughts on mine. I'm working on some of the interactions and considering adding in one of these three: Comeuppance, Akroma's Will, or Inkshield. Here's mine. Di-Had-a'nuf or you hungry for more? Cheers!

Show them No Mercy!

But seriously, Ghostly Prison, Inkshield, Dawn Charm and Batwing Brume are annoying.

KBK7101 on Isshin, Two Heavens As One - Eiganjo Uprising v1.3

I had a few Revenge of Ravens type effect in my initial draft of this deck, but ended up taking all of them out in favor of more aggro stuff. Angelic Exaltation is another one that I removed in favor of more go-wide effects. One of the reasons Isshin is so great is because he's so wide open. A forced combat/goad/pillowfort/politics theme is definitely possible!

Inkshield is already in the deck. :P

As much as my lifegain loving heart loves Linden, the Steadfast Queen, I think the triple-white cost is a bit too much for three color manabases. That being said, she does seem like a good inclusion to offset the inevitable backlash from other players that I've attacked. Added to maybeboard!

Paladin Class isn't something I thought of before, but it seems like it might work. Gonna have to add that one to the maybeboard, too. Thanks!
