Earth-Dark-Water / BurroweDeath

[vaelber]

Hi.
This is my first submission here, but i've been playing for a while.

Befor posting i looked for something like this but didn't find. please forgive me if i made a mistake.

About this deck, i was asking myself how to make the antlion usefull. I asked on the chat if burrowed creature that own the SoP buff still get it attack double when unburrowed (yes dumb question but i was too lazy to try it by myself). Here i am with a Earth/Water base for my deck, the only card that quite synergise with that is the Trident. Then i realise that i get another low cost card i can burrow, the devour and come the new combo devourer/trident.

I don't have a link to it's original thread. Your deck is unupped, uses antlions instead of vanadium wardens, and its build is a bit different. So your deck is indeed different I just thought I'd throw this out here.

well yeah it's indeed similar but the purpose of this deck when i  buildt it was to use antlion.

My first comment wasn't saying your deck had been done before (maybe it has but I either haven't seen it or forgot seeing it) I'm just showing you a deck that is similar in case you haven't seen it and you would be interested in seeing something similar that has been done before. Also this.

Then i realise that i get another low cost card i can burrow, the devour and come the new combo devourer/trident.

The deck I showed uses that combo and there might be other decks that use that combo so it's not new.

I've always loved the SoPa/Burrow combo. What's your intended target for this deck, and how often does it win against it? You might want to consider Steals for problematic permanents. A good option that's also worth looking into is Voodoo Doll, as it permanently locks down your opponent's weapon, when delayed by SoPa, until you pop the SoPa. I'm not sure how feasible it is to add in either of these, because quanta balance in trios are delicate.

3 sopa aren't enough, even if the original swallow use 3 of them, the most used version is with 4: same here, sopa is really a key card even more than in swallow

burrow and sopa is cool, but without cc, dials or a shield is really weak to any rush deck, specially in a trio like this

u can really drop trident, lock an ai deck is hard, specially when your denial is slow, and destroying 3 pillars of an ai deck isn't worth the 3:earth +3 in an unupped deck; vamp stiletto should be a lot better

I never knew this combo existed, interesting idea anyway. No wonder it gets overlooked because unlike the underground creatures, Voodoo Doll sinks.

Tuth is, Shards of Patience don't really need Flooding to be dangerous.

Or, rather, it needs figuratively flooding your side of the field with low-cost critters (as stuff like SoPa RoL/Hope or Patient Dolls {the last of which is basically what Sol is saying} can attest) or buff-critical critters (i.e. Patient Warden, Swallow) much more than literally Flooding both side of the field's edges with water that kills off anything with clear non-Water alignment.

I... overlooked the more fatal thing...
