I’ve been playing a phage deck for about 7 years. Netherborn Altar and Campfire were game changers. Without Command Beacon I don’t think the deck would be functional. Have to shout out Sundial of the infinite and Torpor orb for being combo pieces that technically work but in practice are absolutely terrible (if I had a nickel for every time my torpor orb got destroyed with Phage on the stack 😭). ofc I got Vorpal Sword in there as well. Endless whispers - sacrifice phage is the best combo in there. This deck always makes me think of a quote from Jeremy on Friday Nights: “A good deck is like building a gun from Ikea...You've gotta build it yourself and the directions are in Swedish, so most of the time, it just sort of backfires and blows up in your face - but once you finally find the allen key and get all the pieces to fit together just right, it does exactly what it's supposed to do and looks awesome doing it."
I don't think the interaction between phage and blade of selves would work as phage is legendary, copies are sacrificed on entering. You would still lose the game without platinum angel though ^^ Fun video, thanks !
Lich Mastery and Crumbling Sanctuary is great too. All damage is replaced by annihilate, but I don't lose from decking myself and Lịch Mastery has no downsides anymore. Keep your philactory safe and enjoy your reign as a Lich
I just saw MBM play with Doomsday Excruciator paired with Altar of Dementia to sacrifice Doomsday Excrutiator to make their opponent deck out. It doesn’t kill multiple people, but it definitely makes someone have a bad time lol.
