EDH/Commander Ob Nixilis, Captive Kingpin Deck Tech Card by Card

[@assau1tedpeanutinc540]

Witch's Clinic was a great suggestion, going to have to add that one. Thanks man.

[@commandpower1987]

It's a super underrated card! Glad to help!

FYI Rakdos charm doesn’t work like you expect in this case. Each creature may be dealing one damage to its controller, but Ob Nixilis says “whenever one or more opponent each lose exactly 1 life…” and all damage is done simultaneously, Rakdos Charm will only trigger Ob Nixilis if the opponent only has 1 creature. It’s still a good card and probably worth keeping in mind for the deck, but it does not compliment Ob Nixilis at all

[@commandpower1987]

I was under the impression that each source was separate, since, for example with rakdos charm, a card that prevents one damage if you would take noncombat damage prevents all of the damage. I might have it wrong though

[@hoshino5994]

I’ve also consulted a judge regarding what op said. Just clarified that Rakdos Charm works as op says. I do still have it in my Ob deck though. Good vid.

[@commandpower1987]

Thank you for backing it up!

I'm curious to see if he's stronger than Prosper Tomb Bound

[@commandpower1987]

I think Prosper still has the edge but they are slightly different styles!

[@Lorry_Draws]

@@commandpower1987 I agree

[@80033guitarguy]

I think that either of them would work pretty great in the others 99 though! Prosper is a great ramp source in a Nixilis Deck, and Nixilis is a great finisher in a Prosper deck!

[@Lorry_Draws]

@@80033guitarguy Agreed!

[@commandpower1987]

Absolutely, Ob Nixilis is the peanut butter to Prosper's jam?😅

[@mtggodzilla7308]

Im looking for it. Its hard to get it.

[@commandpower1987]

Yeah the set hasn't been out for long and probably hasn't been opened much🤔

[@TapTwoCounterspell]

Seems very.. value engine/solitaire. Be careful.

[@commandpower1987]

I think he definitely can be, maybe a bit too combo-ey for my tastes judging by initial impressions
