[08:31:12] UncommonGray casts [Animate Dead] targeting [Worldgorger Dragon].
[08:31:18] [CHAT] Zendican: well you see the combo I'm trying to get to work
[08:31:25] [CHAT] Zendican: problem is its just so, so jank
[08:31:27] [CHAT] UncommonGray: oh, yeah, it's amazing
[08:32:01] [CHAT] Zendican: I def need to revaluate
[08:32:10] [CHAT] UncommonGray: it seems doable, not sure how to get it to go faster / harder
[08:32:32] [CHAT] UncommonGray: you might want to get the Resonator (I think?) that copies abilities if you don't have that already
[08:32:50] [CHAT] UncommonGray: https://scryfall.com/card/c19/224/strionic-resonator
[08:33:05] [CHAT] Zendican: here's my thought: hermit druid + ruination rioter + sac outlet = win. The problem is its a 3 card combo that relies of creatures in play that die to everything
[08:33:30] [CHAT] UncommonGray: ahhh, yeah, but hermit druid is definitely doable in this format from what I've seen
[08:34:46] [CHAT] UncommonGray: if your goal is Hermit Druid to set off the combo, maybe lean towards tutoring that and the Rioter instead of self-mill?
[08:34:53] [CHAT] Zendican: What I actually want to do eventually is try to build it like RUG scapeshift or splinter twin. Basically just RUG control that can win given enough setup tie
[08:35:19] [CHAT] Zendican: Yeah, I have Need for Speed in here as well to go off at instant speed. But its very mana intensive
[08:35:32] [CHAT] Zendican: setup time*
[08:35:41] [CHAT] UncommonGray: and if you're leaning control, then embracing the combo seems better. Maybe keep Molten Vortex but trade the Ramunap Excavators and the self-mill for more control?
[08:35:42] [CHAT] Zendican: But I don't know the format well enough yet to build a control deck
[08:35:54] [CHAT] Zendican: Yeah good call
[08:35:57] [CHAT] Zendican: I am going to try that
[08:36:06] [CHAT] UncommonGray: good luck with it!
[08:36:13] [CHAT] Zendican: thanks! gl in the future
