After the weekend and that cool Planeswalker event I got to thinking. Yeah I know a dangerous thing.
But after seeing how effective the new Teferi was, and also the other 2 Planeswalkers I played, especially when all out on the battlefield. I’ve been thinking you know what wouldn’t it be fun to build a superfriends deck?
To be fair getting a couple of Planeswalkers out like both the new Vivien and Vivien Reid, is shocking. That’s 7 cards you can look at in a turn, and get either 2 creatures or a creature and a land. Plus creatures get flash. That’s insane.
I want more of that sort of insanity.
I’d previously looked at some cards that were used in a modern superfriends deck (here).
So naturally I want to be using them, probably sideboarding Ashiok.
I can’t play Jace the Mind Sculper (not legal for starters – even if I did own one, which I don’t).
However I do have a single copy of Teferi, Hero of Dominaria. That should be enough.
I like adding in 2 copies of Oath of Teferi. That extra activation of Planeswalkers will be very useful.
My thinking at the moment is to splash green and play 3 copies of Hydroid Krasis with 4 copies of Frilled Mystic (body and counterspell). Plus and this is a massive plus, Wilderness Reclamation.
So that will be 7 creatures in total!
I’m thinking approx 8 Planeswalkers, but might push it to 10.
4 enchantments, and the rest counter spells of one description or the other.
Yeah the deck is going to be a control deck.
I’ll put a couple of Carnage Tyrants in the sideboard for the mirror match up.
So do I squeeze in a Nexus of Fate?
I see the sideboard being a rogues gallery of Planeswalkers that can be swapped in to counter various match ups.
It’s going to be an interesting exercise to see if this will work.
