Mind Flayer, the Shadow | Thievery - The Brewery [S07E07]

[@crovax1375]

I didn't realize that there are so many theft effects, the first one that came to my mind was Thieving Amalgam, in monoblack! Also Castle Locthwain has great synergy with Villis and I think it would be decent card draw in this deck

[@TheCommanderTavern]

Yup! There are way more than I could fit in the deck (or were too lackluster given some newer ones in recent history). Castle Locthwain is definitely a good addition, especially since I can just swap it in for a swamp.

This is by far the coolest card of the secret lair imo

[@TheCommanderTavern]

It's definitely something interesting. I feel like it's not as good in the command zone as other legendary creatures with similar effects, but it's amazing in the 99 of decks like Prosper, Tome-Bound. When I get around to building my Prosper list on paper, it's definitely going in there.

I have a Mindflayer deck as well due to cost i had to make aome changes like around 33 lands, animate dead, and dance of the Dead. But most times I find if I get elder brain and brain stealer dragon on the field no one can do anything and I've won. I also tossed in grave Betrayal, Eldrazi conscription and Xeno graft exo skeleton

[@TheCommanderTavern]

Nice! I love all those cards! And they're even better here in a Mindflayer deck :P

[@luckyshottherabbitoccultist]

@@TheCommanderTavern there's also a spicy land stealer for his cumulative upkeep 😝 Nothing says "let's make a deal" like stealing someone's land before I even draw a card ❤️

Do you build the whole deck with proxies?

[@TheCommanderTavern]

You could do that, if you wanted to (and your playgroup is okay with proxies). I personally don't use proxies in real life but I build hundreds of decks on Cockatrice, and I test them all / play them all there. It's 100% free and you have access to every single card that exists. It's where I built and tested all of my Stranger Things Secret Lair deck techs (as well as all decks I make for newer sets).
