This is the most annoying dog in Magic. Much like my real dog, Peanut. Music : • SKABLAM! Deck list! (likely to change over time): archidekt.com/... Opening Clip: Home video of my dogs, Peanut and Max
I built this Deck recently & based it around +1/+1 counters (I don't own alot of Flash) & after testing it out I was told that I should base her more around ETB effects 🤔 What's the best route to go for this Deck?
The problem with +1/+1 counters Phelia is that she doesnt reward you for playing other cards with +1/+1 counters. She puts counters on herself, but that doesn't make your other counters cards better. She has much higher synergy with ETB effects because you can load your deck with a toolbox of different ETBs and she can blink the best card for the situation repeatedly. Mono-White is absolutely loaded with strong ETBs that are tailor-made for Phelia to abuse. Mono-White does have some great +1/+1 counters synergy, but they are designed to reward a very wide board of creatures while Phelia needs a lot of help making her able to attack without dying. She's very vulnerable as a 2/2 with no evasion or protection, so take advantage of Mono-White's very strong Voltron cards like Bastion Protector, Holy Mantle, or Unquestioned Authority to name a couple. Phelia is useless if she isn't attacking every turn, and she's even worse dead. However she does buff herself with those +1/+1 counters, so if you run a lot of 1-3 mana permanents for Phelia to blink she can attack every turn, and end up a little stronger so she doesn't die to blockers. Woof! Sorry for the short essay lol. Hope this helps and thanks for commenting! And check out the deck list in the description, it's very budget friendly!
