Haywire Mite seems like a really good choice for removing Ripples of Undeath. I've played it in my Loam Pox decks plenty of times, since it's such a good card in general, and can be tutored with Saga or returned with Takenuma. The incidental lifegain/chump is hardly negligible with seat-of-the-pants pox gaming, and I actually really like that it lets you Smallpox after a Saga goes to fruition without having to sacrifice one of your constructs.

For emergency getting rid of your own Ripples you could run a 'Haywire Mite' mainboard... Sure you run the chance of milling it out but that feels like the best answer that doesn't get in the way of what the deck's doing... Otherwise you're left with 'Braids, Arisen Nightmare' (maybe not the best addition, but it'd be fun!) or 'Souls of the Lost's additional cost also fits the bill...

Elixir of Immortality & Campfire are both good options for Ripples. I like them over Thran Foundry because they both mitigate the life problems that Ripples runs into if you want to get lots of cards back. They are both relevant against a bit of on board pressure buying you more time to stabilize, or help close the chance they could piece together the damage to finish you off. Campfire in Pauper is a brutal shutdown of aggro decks. Elixir has the benefit of being usable multiple times. Haywire Might isn't a terrible consideration for the Saga package. I imagine you crumble pretty hard against active artifact/enchantment engines. It also is a creature that can attack in empty boards. The Rack is always a thought for how to win when ahead. Bandit's Talent is a new Rack effect. It discards a card, and for 1 mana more it starts draining life, then 4 mana and it starts drawing you cards to close out games. Cling to Dust could be a card worth running. It's card advantage or an answer to recurring creatures. Anything with escape/flashback/etc gets better with Ripples since it's such an effective way at getting it there. I want to see a BUG selfmill list with things like Uro and Endurances in the main.
@chronickat545325 күн бұрын
i feel like one or two copies of souls of the lost would be something to consider mid/late game once ripples has done enough card selection. there'd be tons of lands in the yard so it'd be a good beater to close out the game, and since you have to sacrifice a permanent for souls, you can sac the ripples so you don't deck yourself.
@negativerainbow25 күн бұрын
This feels like a deck that might enjoy barrowgoyf. Plays bad with smallpox itself, but it loads your yard pretty good and the lifelink gets you stable where ripples can really chew up your life total. That said, then you'd be looking to play more creatures so it would end up being a fairly different deck, so maybe not.

According to a comment LSV made in a recent video, he thinks that if you were designing Magic from scratch again you wouldn't have an upkeep step. In recent sets, design has trended away from using it--only 2 cards with the word "upkeep" in OTJ, 2 in ACR, 3 in MH3 (1 reprint), 4 in BLB, and many are homages to older cards like Darkstar Augur. Not sure what the reasoning is, but I like knowing what I draw before making big decisions so I'm not complaining--plus, less time spent with a die on my library to remind me of a trigger.

So i switched to a mono black version, and using a new couple cards that are being great, but something is missing, and Riples may solve it.

Ripples happening in the Main Phase is due to what my friends and I determined as to make it not an instant Dredge engine in the upkeep. If it was Upkeep, it would allow those cards flipped to be Dredged out instantly. It's also to prevent abuses from some other interactions. This is speculation, of course, but it's nearest what we can think, because it would blow Dredge wide the hell open.
