#magic deck

This feels so silly, but I want to ramble about my Spamtenna blue/black Magic deck-

At first I made some custom cards for Spamton and Tenna (I have a couple of versions, but these are the ones I ended up stopping on).

A different card, The Old Machine, would meld with Spamton to make Spamton NEO:

And Tenna is a flip card:

,,,I'm not the best at making custom cards - shove too much into them when they'd honestly be better simplified. So, after testing and finding them a bit more complex than what I aimed for, I've just gone for proxying:

I was already using Venser, Corpse Puppet for my commander (had to decide between him and Dragonlord Silumgar, and while the Elder Dragon has a controlling ability that would fit, the deck is based more on post-Chapter3 than anything else soo proliferate, the idea of semi pipis based glitching, won out.)

So, proliferate. I, uh, don't have many cards with that ability, so I ended up somewhat lazily proxying a bunch - I'll reblog this and put them up there (they are very lazy edits, and all the art I used for this deck was found on the Deltarune Wiki). Besides that, there's a focus on making the opponent discard cards, and support the proliferate.

This is a silly deck, and I tried to focus more on theme than making it a powerhouse (or huge annoyance), so some cards I chose are just for aesthetic/vibes, of the Spamtenna variety: *Aladdin's Ring (Thorn Ring, thus Spamton's "ring") *Ring of Renewal (Tenna's "ring") *Wedding Invitation (because of course - even with no Vampires, this has still been pretty useful) *Elsewhere Flask (sort of Tropic of Love/South of the Border, "Wish I could go but I'm just a big electric box attached to the wall!! Haha!!") *Macabre Waltz *Dead Weight (^just silliness) *Ruin Crab (Pipis :)

Then the Spamton focused cards: *Glasses of Urza (couldn't do the Sunglasses of Urza sadly) *Vat Emergence (Acid pool? plus proliferate) *Rag Man *Looming Shade *Dramatist's Puppet *Warf Infiltrator (^these four are mostly due to vibes)

Then the transformation/"puppetification" aligned cards: *Strange Augmentation *Failed Conversion *Grotesque Mutation *Ashnod's Transmogrant *Skeletal Grimace (very 'puppet grin' looking) *Transmutation *Grim Affliction *Disturbing Conversion *Enfeeblement *Weakness

And some more for the Horrors (the discarding and milling): *Megrim *Mind Twist *Mind Rot *Coercion (the contract(s)?) *Mind Ravel *Maddening Cacophony (the telephone!) *Traumatize (for both of them!)

Now Tenna themed cards: *Silundi Isle/Silundi Vision (Tropic of Love again!) *Thespian's Stage (the Studio/TV World) *Guardian Automaton (part of the Dreemurr family!) *Found Footage (Feacher Presentation!) *Battered Golem (,,,yeah this one's just mean to Tenna-) *Conch Horn (The Island Board...?) *Arcane Proxy ('Lord of Screens') *Three Tree Mascot (this one's mostly just cause of the art)

Lastly, the benefactors involvement: *Ashiok, Sculptor of Fears (,,,I just like them, but also maybe a stand-in for the benefactor?) *Cryptolith Fragment/Aurora of Emrakul (a shadow crystal) *Sealed Fate (the prophecy) *Diabolic Vision ('The Lord of Screens, Cleaved Red By Blade') *Glistening Deluge *Phyrexian Boon (the benefactors deal?) *Necrogen Communion ( "[[Amazed at thi5 amazing transformation? You too can]] HAVE A [[Communion]] WITH [[Unintelligble Laughter]]" ) *Binding Grasp (strings!) *The Wretched (NEO strings!) *Ray of Command (more strings!) *Gauntlets of Chaos (even more strings!) *Kami of Terrible Secrets (Spamton's secret, Tenna's own deceit, their general miscommunication)

(Also Dimir Aqueduct, Underground Sea, Mortuary Mire, with a slew of Islands and Swamps to finish up the land side.)

I love the aesthetics of Balatro so much, the drip-paint look to the Magic Deck back is one of my favorites

Deck list

The quest continues

Gather Round for a meme from days of yore

Here is Sorrows Path

This is a garbage card and maybe one of the first truly trash doo doo dookie cards

Choose two target blocking creatures an opponent controls. If each of those creatures could block all creatures that the other is blocking, remove both of them from combat. Each one then blocks all creatures the other was blocking. Whenever Sorrow's Path becomes tapped, it deals 2 damage to you and each creature you control. This is a land, it makes no mana, Correct me if im wrong but what I think its trying to do is take 2 things that are blocking currently  and swap what they are blocking Then you take 2 damage for the privilege of playing this poo poo card Now this card is poo poo dookie dog shit and it was a meme to try to make it work Now naturally your opponent would simply.... not attack into this or just make sure it didnt matter if blocking is changed.

You know what the best way to use this card is Its 2 damage ability isnt a tap ability ,. it just happens when it becomes tapped. So you give this thing to your opponent and tap it down with an icy manipulator or something to make them take 2 every turn.
