🦇👹 Decklists: bit.ly/3wYM5zI

[@maxwill6074]

Sorry, but in the amulet titan list there are 61 cards main and 16 SB... There must be 2 errors

[@mtgmoderndude5620]

Saw the Dimir Shadow Deck and i think this Deck looks like a lot of fun to play it! Now im building it. Really nice Content guys!

[@zariski8920]

Actually, under dress down, the lands are still of every basic land types if there is a Dryad on board (but the ability to play extra land drop is lost).

[@theweirdlyfriendlymushroom7920]

Why does it work like that?

[@lucr4199]

@@theweirdlyfriendlymushroom7920 I found below explanation on internet.
"This is a layers question. In MTG there is a system called Interaction of Continuous Effects (AKA Layers). You take each layer in order when determining what an object looks like.
This particular interaction is the same with any other card that changes types (like Magus of the Moon).
Dryad of the Elysian Grove's ability that provides additional land types happens in Layer 4, while ability adding/removing happens in layer 6. Because we take these in order, land types have changed already by the time Dryad loses its abilities, so despite the fact that it has no abilities at the end of the process, the lands are changed.
613.1. The values of an object’s characteristics are determined by starting with the actual object. For a card, that means the values of the characteristics printed on that card. For a token or a copy of a spell or card, that means the values of the characteristics defined by the effect that created it. Then all applicable continuous effects are applied in a series of layers in the following order:
613.1a Layer 1: Rules and effects that modify copiable values are applied.
613.1b Layer 2: Control-changing effects are applied.
613.1c Layer 3: Text-changing effects are applied. See rule 612, “Text-Changing Effects.”
613.1d Layer 4: Type-changing effects are applied. These include effects that change an object’s card type, subtype, and/or supertype.
613.1e Layer 5: Color-changing effects are applied.
613.1f Layer 6: Ability-adding effects, keyword counters, ability-removing effects, and effects that say an object can’t have an ability are applied.
613.1g Layer 7: Power- and/or toughness-changing effects are applied."

@@lucr4199 wow thats fascinating, thanks
is WotC the source? It reads like it is from the rulebook.
Well, wouldn't it still be lost since ability-adding effects are first in the list and removing effects last?

[@lucr4199]

@@Sarethofdarkness You're welcome.
No, it's not from Wotc directly. I found the explanation on Reddit.
From my understanding,
1) You apply first Dryad's ability which gives every basic land type to your lands since this is a layer 4 effect while Dress down's effect is a layer 6 effect.
2) Then, you apply Dress down's effect which transforms your dryad into a vanilla 2/4 without any ability. However, at that moment, your lands already got every land types and they keep them since Dress down only affects creatures.

[@Sarethofdarkness]

@@lucr4199 Ah, sure.
That makes sense.
Now we have to figure out what the Clean-Up-Phase does.
Would it mean to reassign the prior Types too, so it would change the Types back at the beginning of the next Upkeep (of any player)?

[@wolfwoodgamer5814]

Had no idea there was card market commentating videos - great stuff. Wild games

[@kumbertjoehl-lee8898]

You could have named the video series something like: All Eyes on Amulett Modern Tournament.
Yeah i'm not too good with names but it would be cool because we basicly follow an amulett titan deck through different match ups as the constant.

[@lokimtg5976]

Question what is the significance of the two amulet of visors? Doesn't just allow things to be untapped? So could you stack them or does one amulet untap all tapped permanents

[@Cerby24]

The amulets don't make things come in untapped, instead when something enters the battlefield tapped they put a trigger on the stack to untap them. This means, like you put forward, you can stack the triggers and float the mana from the lands in between the two amulet triggers. For example, with one bounceland and two amulets, when you play the bounceland it comes in tapped, then two amulet triggers go on the stack. You let one resolve, then before the other does you tap the bounceland to make two mana. Then the second trigger resolves, and now you have two mana and an untapped bounceland to make two more. Hope that helps!

[@lokimtg5976]

@@Cerby24 yeah it does help thank you for the explanation!

[@funnyfyr]

Titan is such a fun card

[@fernandodiaz9064]

Due to the pandemics and lack of playing Magic "in person" I had forgot how obnoxious is the constant card flickering... Really annoying by Elias Pohlabel, the Dimir DShadow player
