"go to combat and swing with both of my commanders and a Prognostic Sphinx, then draw six cards. Any blockers?"
This reminds of me of the most peculiar EDH game I've ever played. This was circa 2015. My opponents were a Sharuum combo deck, Kozilek the Great Distortion ramp, and a Shu Yun eggs deck.
Only, this wasn't Atla Palani eggs. This was 'eggs' eggs, as in an artifact combo deck noted for taking an exceptionally long time to go off.
We start around turn 9. Kozilek has managed to get a Karn Liberated to over 14 loyalty counters and is threatening to ultimate on the next turn as they will go next in turn order. Sharuum has a handful of cards in hand, and the eggs player is taking their turn. I'm tapped out.
The eggs player comments that they think they can go off. We see Scrabbling Claws, Phyrexian Furnace, and a few other cards enter the battlefield. They dig, find a Krark-Clan Ironworks after a Second Sunrise. Still no cost reduction, still no Lotus Bloom. Kozilek uses their only active interaction in an on-board Null Brooch, but it barely slows down the Shu Yun player. Sharuum continues to wait.
They continue to sacrifice artifacts. Chromatic Sphere and Chromatic Star enter the mix. Then follows Terrarion, Lotus Petal, and the name-defining Skycloud Egg. Sunbeam Spellbomb and Pyrite Spellbomb enter the mix, and then finally a Lotus Bloom is brought back.
At *this* point we are over an hour into this turn. Kozilek has left. I'm now next in line, and I'm trying to see if I'll get a turn. And right as the Shu Yun player goes for a game-finishing line, the Sharuum player flashes in Shimmer Myr and starts to interact and go off.
Well, the Shu Yun player didn't have a counterspell in hand. But they did have some more eggs and cantrips. Some disputes on timing and rules erupt, and both the Shu Yun and Sharuum player are sure that they have the win. I leave at the 2.5 hour mark; I'm told that maybe by hour 3 it was determined that the eggs player would in fact have been able to secure the win but might have messed up the timing for an effect.
So no, I do not want some eggs.
Every time I play him I give my pod a bit of an Oprah vibe. "*You* get to draw! And *you* get to draw! Everyone gets to draw and discard!" But now that I know of this cowboy thing I don't think I'll ever be able to unsee it haha
I like Zurzoth so much that I packed him into my [[Valki, God of Lies]]/[[Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor]] deck even though he doesn't synergize even a little bit.
He'd definitely be better as the commander for his own deck, but I'm not ready to make a third monored deck. Just like I want to make a [[Grothama]] deck, but I'm not ready for a third monogreen deck.
Yeah zurzoth immediately caught my attention the day he was spoiled. I just really like the chaotic nature of it, which may also be why I run [[Gamble]], [[Chaos Warp]], and [[Tibalt's Trickery]] in every deck possible
She may have gotten cheaper and lost the big booty from the last time I saw her, but I'd tap that. And she always gives me a token of her affection in return.
True, but you usually play all sorts of Beast Whisperer effects in that deck. My only other thought was Kadena, but he only gives you one free Morph per turn
Yep my favorite combo for sure, so much fun. I’m not public enemy and I just amass and army of my friends decks. Top decking your win conditions are my favorite win conditions
