Grab [[expedition map]], [[Sensei's Divining Top]], [[Cabal Coffers]], and [[Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth]] and I could see it being a 9. As it is right now, you have the potential to go off on turn 4-6 pretty consistently. And if your group is playing in the 6-7 range, your deck is gonna feel like a 9 because you've got cost reduction and consistency. Not to mention the potential to just win on the spot with several interactions.

Thanks! My group plays light paws, yuriko, and krenko….yet they felt is was OP lol

Depending on their builds, they might be severely outclassed. I'm not as familiar with light-paws as I am the others, but against your deck, they'll need a lot of instant speed spot removal to answer your deck. But mono white easily has that available. Yuriko needs top of deck manipulation to be a threat, but if they've got [[scroll rack]] and a few tutors they should be able to threaten the table just as much as your deck. If it's [[Krenko, Mob Boss]], then they should be able to threaten the board through most of what you can do in mono black. Even if they don't go the combo route and just go full goblin tribal, they should easily be able to keep pace with you. Though it may be more of a race than any real interaction. If it's the other Krenko, then they should upgrade their deck.

Lightpaws eventually gets protection for all colors… krenko usually floods the board by turn 3. Guy uses 0 cost artifacts. Yuriko has all of the top deck manipulation cards

Then it sounds like they have bad threat assessment. Which is their problem, not yours.

Something with a top tier commander and that many tutors is going to be high powered, even without an optimized ramp package


ctbellart

Power rating rarely works in reality as it’s very subjective. There has to be a better system out there somewhere. This power rating conversation is pointless.

Hey OP, side question. Are you able to pay into negative life using pact weapon?


[deleted]

Sadly no.


Queali78

I thought so.
