What happens if spellskite has shroud

Similarly, maindeck Leyline of Sanctity has become a feature to stop the most common way the hexproof guys used to die - edict effects, most notably Blessed Alliance , but also Doomfall. Of course, both Path and Leyline have many more applications and Leyline boosts Ethereal Armor , so they're rarely useless, despite not contributing directly to the very demanding battleplan.

It's an archetype that sees little variance, anyway. Dan Ward's list , the most successful Bogles deck of the year, had one Hyena Umbra in place of one Leyline, but for the rest it was exactly the same as Butakov's.

The list is purely Selesnya, with a full playset of Horizon Canopy as its deck thinner, since you need untapped mana in the early turns which rules out cycling , but you don't need more than two lands to play all your cards, leading to a low land count. Dryad Arbor is a fetchable, if unimpressive, occasional Aura carrier, adding more consistency in case none of the other eligible targets would show up or stick around. Access to white means access to the best sideboard color, so we can have all the classic haters, including Selesnya-specific Gaddock Teeg , which is also useful to hose those pesky wrath spells we can't always count on a totem armor to be around.

Stony Silence and the remaining copies of Path to Exile are insurance against the deck's true bogeyman, the Aura-stealer Spellskite. Seal of Primordium is the Naturalize of choice, due to its interaction with Ethereal Armor. Of course, the deck, much like Infect, is itself very susceptible to the opponent's sideboarding.

It must worry about Spellskite, edict effects, enchantment destruction, and it could just fold if faced by an early Chalice of the Void on 1. In summation, Bogles is not a major player in the current meta, but it's the kind of deck you should always be wary of because it can catch you by surprise. It had some great results in major events this year, starting with the first place of Dan Ward at Grand Prix Toronto in February an event with almost 1, players , then in March Butakov's first place at the Magic Online Championship at Wizards of the Coast's headquarters in Renton, plus two Top 8 placements at SCG events, Worcester and Cincinnati.

You never know when a giant Bogle will slip past your defenses especially online, where the archetype is very popular. I, for one, always include some Back to Nature in my sideboards. That's how I make Bogle players rage quit.

I gave my Spellskite a Pemmin's Aura. Spellskites love Pemmin's Auras. Oh, yeah, spoiler alert: Mirrormade is also in here. Auras that make creatures hard to block are a specialty in blue, and these four are some of my favorites.

Tricks of the Trade was a late cut as I think these four are better due to the lower cost. Protecting Rayne is going to be a key piece of the plan, and these cards all come at that objective differently. The Umbras give the enchanted creature totem armor, which is kind of like a 1-up mushroom with a bonus attached; they range from Crab Umbra , which is mostly just for totem armor, to Octopus Umbra , which is more about the size increase.

No blocks? Oh, cool, let me swap this out with Curiosity. Oh, wait, you wanted to target the creature? This is Diplomatic Immunity now. These are all about card draw. Some give you cards when the creature connects, while others provide cards when they land on a creature.

Ordeal of Thassa and Private Research both make you work for it, but the rewards from spending time on them are well worth the trouble. When those tough times come, these three cards come through.
