Shocker

Creature — Insect

Whenever Shocker deals damage to a player, that player discards all the cards in their hand, then draws that many cards.

Graceful Antelope is the white version of Orcish Squatters. Both are budget and nonbasic lands are not safe with either on the battlefield.

Shocker old school jank that has the potential of being epic.

Hi Mrs and Mr. NV_1980

Thanks a lot for your suggestions! I'll firstly reply on the cuts, because those are always the hardest ;)

I have to agree with you on the Kess, Dissident Mage en the Shocker. Both cards are pretty cool but they now I've played this deck a couple of times I can't really say that their presence made a change in the game. Capsize neither, but I find it a too strong mechanism to cut it yet. Nicol Bolas, the Ravager  Flip on the other hand I can't really cut. I mean, come on, it's Nicol Bolas. He's just awesome. He's worth that 1 card slot not fitting 100% to my strategy haha!

I like your thoughts about Teferi's Puzzle Box and Torbran, Thane of Red Fell! I've never even heard of that Dwarf! I'm having a little doubt if his isn't going to be a problem but he'd definitly be awesome on the field! I think I can change those 2 cards for the 2 cuts. I don't really want to go to that milling strategy as I have already have another mill deck and I'm convinced that a little mill doesn't work. It's either full pull mill or not at all, in my opinion. The Wheel and Deal I took out because it happend more often then not that I had a disadvantage of my opponents getting a new hand and I couldn't! I back then changed it for another wheel effect which I think I have enough now. Echo of Eons is another good suggestion. It misses out on the discard effect, but it has the flash back option so I'll reconsider that one. Torment of Hailfire is sick. I completely forgot about that card. I actually think I have it somewhere in my collectionfolder. I definitely have to find it!


The problem in the last couple of games is my manabase. I'm more often than not mana screwed or I can't seem to get the right colors fixed. I've already added 2 Mountains, Nightscape Familiar and a Goblin Electromancer (however this last one could maybe be cut because of the same reason you gave me with Kess, Dissident Mage)..... I play 38 lands (I don't count Maze of Ith in this) and 4 rampspells (3 signets and a Sol Ring). That should be enough, right?!

Anyway, a big thank you for your reply, your help and the eyeopener!

Kind regards, Mat

Hi,

We would recommend adding Library of Leng, so that you're not forced to (truly) discard when you do not want to. Teferi's Puzzle Box seems to make a lot of sense in this deck. Torbran, Thane of Red Fell makes Nekusar's damage dealing ability a lot more terrifying. We would also definitely consider additions like Wheel and Deal, Echo of Eons, Torment of Hailfire, Mindcrank, Psychic Corrosion and Painful Quandary. Last but not least, consider adding some tutors; your deck contains a few combo's that are not bound to go off all that often unless you can search for the necessary cards.

Cards we would recommend to drop from the deck would be:

  • Kess, Dissident Mage; your deck doesn't contain enough instants and sorceries to make her addition worth it.
  • Nicol Bolas, the Ravager  Flip; this card doesn't do all that much for your overall strategy, is freaking expensive to turn into a planeswalker and it will almost never ult because he's a prime target for removal.
  • Shocker; the idea is nice, but this creature is zapped off the field too easily by the time he starts to get useful.
  • Capsize; not a bad card but some of the suggestions we have given above are worth more, considering your game-plan.

Hope this helped. Wkr,

Mrs. and Mr. NV_1980

I am skeptic about Treasure Nabber . You can't use the rocks the same why Thrasios dose. I see what you wanna do with Shocker . But I am skeptic. Have you had any cool results so fare with that?

This looks a lot like the new Ophus thife deck. I will give you a link. ophus thife something

Maybe this will give you some inspiration.
