Hey there Fish Plissken! Just wanted to say that I like how creative and fun this deck is. You have some cool, unusual picks in here like Benefactor's Draught, The Millennium Calendar, and just your enchantments/utility in general.

I also love card draw a lot in general, so just a couple ideas since this has some similarities with a Damia deck of mine..

I definitely recommend considering maybe some creatures like Horizon Chimera, Overbeing of Myth and Tishana, Voice of Thunder if you haven't considered them already.

And then Siege Behemoth and Psychosis Crawler have always been fun ways for me to get a lot of damage in.

And then I feel like Progenitor Mimic goes in any G/U deck really well and cool stuff always seems to happen with him. It's always fun to copy someone's Rune-Scarred Demon or something xD

But yeah! Just wanted to say that I love how you made this deck fun and creative but also made it pretty competitive as well.

Carry on :)

TypicalTimmy a friend of mine plays god tribal. He included some of the avatars from Eventide. I forget which ones are all in there but it's some of these guys Overbeing of Myth, Deity of Scars, Divinity of Pride, Dominus of Fealty, and Nobilis of War. He activates his gods with some regularity.

I have replaced Overbeing of Myth with Gretchen Titchwillow, which reduced the average converted mana cost of this deck from 3.94 to 3.89, because, as great as the overbeing was, its mana cost was too color-intensive for a three colored deck, which was also the case with the previous several decks of mine from which I removed creatures with color-intensive mana costs.

I have replaced Dominus of Fealty and Overbeing of Myth with Progenitor Mimic and Wandering Mind, whcih reduced the average converted mana cost of this deck from 3.94 to 3.92, because, as awesome as the original two creatures were, their mana costs were too color-intensive for a three-colored deck, so I am very glad to have reduced the number of colored mana symbols in this deck.

Overbeing of Myth is a pet card of mine and I was looking for a deck where it would make sense to put it in. This looks like a great starting point and I love you deck description. Thanks!

First, can I state the the conversation is about Hybrid, not or . Those should not be used in any argument, because all three are vastly different. For example, something with in its cost is definitely a Green card. It was built to be a green effect on a green card that had a weird casting cost to help some players out when their mana is weird. Additionally, Dismember is 100% a black card.

And can I say that I absolutely hate the "slippery slope" argument, especially in Magic. It's entirely irrelevant. It isn't even capable of holding water.

Now, the Hybrid mana thing is weird. The design of the mechanic allows mono-colored decks to use effects that are supposed to be 2-color. Technically, you can also use them in 2-color decks that don't line up, like Nightveil Specter in a deck, but that puts a lot of strain on your manabase and I don't recommend it.

The problem comes down to, do we actually want some of these cards in certain monocolor decks? Looking through the cards, most of them wouldn't even be played in commander. And honestly, oh no mono blue gets Overbeing of Myth is not all that scary. There's a couple minor pie stretches and breaks that would happen, but for the most part very few of the cards are playable and very few of them actually change much about what the mono color decks already have access to.

The only cards I can see actually being crazy are Guttural Response , which is a third member of green's Autumn's Veil and Veil of Summer package and another anti-counterspell in red's gang of Red Elemental Blast , Pyroblast , Ricochet Trap .... etc. Or maybe Vexing Shusher ? Hmmm, well . . . no. Again, red and green on their own are perfectly capable of saying "screw you blue" without either of those cards.

Or Waves of Aggression in mono white? Oh, wait . . . most mono white lists are stax or janky creature mcSlappies. And them getting one Extra Combat effect is honestly meh. It wouldn't break anything. Honestly, I don't even think it's all that powerful.

Or Dovescape in mono white? Oh, wait, monowhite has better stax pieces. In monoblue? Nah, monoblue is spellcaster. It loses to Dovescape.

The impact of making such a change is so small that, for those campaigning for the change, it is entirely an ideological victory. The impact is quite literally restricted to "now I have to explain why I'm allowed to run this card". Which honestly is no worse than having to explain some of your more complicated turns to newer players. Which I have to do all the time.

I don't have a stance here, because there isn't actually a compelling reason to make the change or to refuse the change. Actually, check that, there is one reason to refuse the change, and that is "actually bothering to make the change". So this change will not happen, because the single point awarded to either side is against it.
