Remove a creature card in your graveyard from the game: Put X +0/+1 counters on Necropolis, where X is the removed card's converted mana cost.

Very nice! I love Arcades since you can play it so many ways. You can go with crazy ramp, crazy draw, or a little of both. Here are some cool cards I came across when building my Arcades deck. Meekstone , Wall of Kelp , Thing in the Ice Flip, and Necropolis . Meekstone also works really well with your Chulane, Teller of Tales which is a card I will definitely be adding to my Arcades deck since I just discovered it thanks to you lol. Again, very cool list!

The vows are nice but targets can still block your creatures. Bloodthirsty Blade, Martial Impetus, Psychic Impetus and Predatory Impetus instead? I hate Vow of Duty unless its on my guys.
Necropolis is an old fun card. Wall of Junk can be recast for card draw.

『Primer』Combo-Cades: The Wallmaster | EDH
3 years ago
We thank you for your comment and your enjoyment in reading our Bible!
The cards listed are more tailored to a build of The Wallmaster that is far more combat-based.
Assault Formation is a great mana sink for a finisher turn, being able to buff all our walls up very quickly and performing an alpha strike. We use High Alert instead, as it acts as a combo piece with Axebane Guardian and enough defenders.
This could be good for the list due to it being easily grabbed by Muddle the Mixture, but as of yet there's no space.
Shifting Wall is actually pretty viable for our list, acting as a secondary Shield Sphere, at least CMC wise, for a free draw with Arcades. The issues are the bad interaction with Cloudstone Curio, or moreso, the lack of interaction, and the fact that we need to put at least 1 mana into it to make it stick. It could be useful in an Intruder Alarm wall-spam turn, however.
Necropolis is interesting, but the CMC is too high for the base stats and effect, also we tend to appreciate recursion, (Sevinne's Reclamation, Dawn, Eternal Witness) over scavenging.
Dragon Throne of Tarkir is a power-matters card, which we can't commonly see being higher than 3. However, it is very powerful on those big, swingy turns.
Our deck looks for combo over damage, we may build a more 'restrained' Bible sometime, which is more based on beating face. If that comes, the Throne is in.

Back in 2016, I had a lot of fun making an eldrazi-themed deck with Assault Formation. Seeing Arcades inspired me to make my own deck, as this whole "defenders matters" deck was always fun; Had a lot of fun reading through this! I like Shifting Wall myself as a flexible sink, and in an early build but much less competitive a card by comparison, Necropolis made for fun finishes, and for less competitive but still useful matters, Dragon Throne of Tarkir has helped me in the past. I am sure you have gone through these and find them unappealing, most likely, but I could simply not pass by here, read it all and enjoy it without saying anything at all. Keep it up!

Heyo! My friend has a Doran edh deck, so I'll just throw out suggestions based on what I remember making an impact.
Dusk - good boardwipe that keeps most of you dudes and give you some options later.
Huatli, the Sun's Heart - another doran effect
Heroic Intervention - a generally good card for saving your board against boardwipes
Asceticism - I have a bad habit of throwing this into any deck with green. It's nuts to me
Temple of the False God - love/hate relationship with this land. Works better with land ramp
Retribution of the Meek - another boardwipe
Those are just a few ideas, hope this helps.
btw, a card he runs that I like, though it isn't very good is Necropolis . I find the wonky counters to be interesting.
