I've got Celestial Dawn in my Dromar the Banisher color change/color hate deck. Making all of my creatures white allows me to use Dromar's ability while choosing any other color, avoiding bouncing my own creatures back to hand as well. The mana fixing is a nice side benefit. If you order your play correctly it can also be used for funny combos using either Painter's Servant or Shifting Sky with cards like Light of Day, Righteous War, or Psychic Allergy.
Cannabalize is sweet. I found this card a few months ago and bought a few copies. Has preformed so well. I’ve been finding a ton of underplayed cards by searching for the retro border cards.
Call Forth the Tempest is often game-ending in my Rashmi & Ragavan deck. I generally end up cascading 3x before the damage trigger, leaving me to swing into them completely. Absolutely brutal. Big fan of Cannibalize as well; just added it to my Cleopatra deck because of this video.
When I very first started playing Magic I only had a bunch of random commons. A friend gave me a Celestial Dawn so that my deck was actually playable. It'll always have a place in my heart for that.
4:30 Gisa rhe Ghoulcaller will love that! 13:30 in Izzet, Omnispell Adept coul cast it for 3 mana, saving you mana for copying that "Call forth the Tempest" for even kore value. Also, donate a Stuffy Doll with Bazaar Trader and hurt an opponent? 15:30 donate it in a Zedruu deck ... Eh eh, good bye zombies and Goblins!
caller of the hunt has to be a cost because if it was an etb like usual it would die before the etb resolved. could possibly be a cast trigger but i think there's memory issues there, making it an additional cost makes the most sense even if it's bizarre.
Centaur Omenreader is an all-star in my Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro deck. With Sachi in play, can tap Centaur Omenreader for 2, and all my creatures cost 2 less (plus the 2 additional I just got from CO)!
i used celestial dawn in a Niv-mizzet Reborn deck where i ran dual colored white spells as the main theme and other cards. it was essentially a 5 color white chroma deck. i made the deck because of light from within, but since kudo, king among bears came out i have switched the commander to that and have taken it out.
Yeah I’m the guy who made a Mardu Merc deck (Vihann as commander) and am working on a Jund version (lead by Ognis), and Cateran Summons was one of the first cards I added to both.
The videos are an opinion piece, from his perspective. So "Should" is the correct word for him to use. The world of clickbait titles is annoying, but this isn't a good use-case to fight that battle.
like most of the people here celestal dawn purpose in my deck is as if it was a chromatic lantern/the world tree so the mana is fixed infact im highly considering a huge gamble of trying 5-color theft with the sliver overlord as the commander this is a slam dunk to be able to cast spells when theft effects don't have "as if it was mana of any color"
Celestial Dawn might be nice for General Ferrous Rokiric, no wait, no it's not. This would make my boros spells white and it won't trigger Rokiric. If the middle portion wasn't included, it would fit.
I play ceta sanctuary in my temur ninth doctor + clara deck and it puts in a ton of work, better than rhystic study for that deck. I had no idea cannibalize existed and I'm going to now try to find room for it in at least one of my decks with black. love the versatility and efficient cost
I have Carnival of Souls in my BG Shadowborn Apostle deck. It's a glass cannon but can go off in many degenerate ways, like with Glimpse of Nature and Carnival of Souls you could basically drop half of your deck until you hit Blood Artist and such, or you just tutor for Razaketh and go off from there.
i play cannibalize in my Gix, Yawgmoth praetor deck. it uses only cards tied to old phyrexia and cards from stronghold urzas saga, brothers war, and so on. its my most flavorful deck and it really feels like the war for dominaria
Cannibalize could be the only Robert Bliss card I have seen without some sort of phallus infiltration within the artwork. Or maybe i just haven't seen it yet 😂
Using Celestial Dawn in my 5 color saga deck (wanted to play the The Kami War saga). Perfect fixing and an enchantment to trigger my enchantresses, what´s not to like.
I have a 5 color General Tazri deck to tutor for Orvar, the All Form…so it is basically a 5 color Orvar deck….Cateran Summons is a cheaper tutor for Orvar in that deck.
Back when I started playing commander a long time ago, my friend had a zeru deck in magic online with celestial dawn. Back then to couldn't make mana outside your color identity, so he'd gift it to non white players. Since they couldn't make white mana, their lands did nothing. Rules have long since changed though.
I created a list of cards that are either interesting or unique and most of them I know about because of this format. Like how do you always find these cards :D
Yes and no - Celestial Dawn is harder to remove, and there are scenarios that colors matter. For example, you could pitch an artifact or a mono-black card from your hand to evoke Solitude.
@@edhdeckbuildingtotally realise that. I just thought that changeling was an ability, not a card type, and that meant Cateran Summons could not grab a changeling, as they are usually Shapeshifter's with the changeling ability, not Mercenariea until they hit the battlefield. Have I misinterpreted this rule?
@@brendans1983 changeling is an ability, and it works in all zones. so in your library that card (even if it isn't a creature card) is all creature types.
