H3y_Im_R0b on Can Zada, Hedron Grinder copy …

1 hour ago

Say I have 4 creatures and Zada, Hedron Grinder on the field. I cast Grapeshot or Ground Rift after casting 2 other instant/sorcery spells, and target Zada, Hedron Grinder.

Would she create copies of the spells with Storm for the 4 other creatures creature I control, and would each of those copies be able to Storm 4 more times due to me casting the two spells before the original card with Storm?

Or would the original card with Storm be the only one that could Storm and Zada's ability just copy the storm cards top effect and ignore the Storm effect entirely?

I've done a little casual tinkering, but I'm not going to call myself a Pauper expert. I mostly run off guesswork and what looks fun in the moment.

Maybe just move the Gray Merchants to the sideboard for burn decks, so you don't lose to your own Shepherds in a damage race. Artifacts/affinity decks tend to be popular, but I'm not sure what there is besides the Wrench Minds.

Sneaky Snacker comes and goes, so some graveyard interaction might also help. Something like Vile Rebirth or Shamble Back.

Yeah, looks like that works, using the +1. Trying to work out how it interacts with Raging River. You need three blockers per sector. If Ghost of Ramirez DePietro attacks in alpha, the three defenders there still needs to split. You need six defenders per sector. So if I'm doing the math right, Raging River + Space Beleren requires 18x potential blockers to make sure every sector/river split has three available blockers.

Got it. Missed the Cabal Therapy interaction, that makes sense. I should have seen that, I'm trying to learn Legacy Dredge. Thanks for explaining, and glad I could help!

The source of the damage doesn't matter, just before the damage is dealt (so for spells and abilities, before it resolves), you activate the redirection as many times as you want and it creates these replacement effect 'shields'. And then when the damage would be dealt, you as the controller of the affected permanent choose the order of the replacements to apply. You can find a more comprehensive set of rulings for the en-kors for example here: https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/En-Kor_ability

Thank you X3!!! I really appreciate it. I love Zaxxy. I have not ventured into the online forum of gameplay, but your suggestion is a very good one. I may have to consider adding that recommendation to our content. Thank you again for your kind words and for joining MTG Burgeoning!

psionictemplar THANK YOU FOR THE INPUT!!! I greatly appreciate it!!!!

You are correct! The main win con is to never let your opponent play another turn. That being said the deck does need an alt win con. Something I am working towards. As of right now this iteration is just me vomiting my thoughts into 60 cards! I have another brain child in a deck that uses a similar method to lock an opponent out but it does very well at winning alternatively (in Izzet). This iteration is probably a little light on interaction. Most combo decks I run about 6 pieces of protection or interaction as statistically that should produce at least 1 by turn 3.

Simic Ascendancy is a brilliant win-con alternative. Excellent suggestion! And your suggestion of The Ozolith as an excellent form of protection as well. Keeping the counters around to hopefully use them later is a great way to steal a game out of no where!

It may be worth exploring the deck as more of a creatures toolbox kit with some interesting lines for winning. I've always wanted to figure out a way to break Sage of Hours and more recently Jackal, Genius Geneticist. This shell may be a good starting place for both!!!

If you haven't noticed this is my favorite part of MTG. The brewing!!!

I'll work on the mana base once I have a decent deck outlined. Just trying to keep track of pip ratios at this point! I'll probably end up with some combo of Botanical Sanctum, Breeding Pool, Dreamroot Cascade, and Yavimaya Coast with a few basics for those pesky land destruction decks.

THANK YOU for taking the time to contribute!
