Description
{"ops":[{"insert":"WIP primer\n\nSummary\nI wanted to make a deck with a companion. While looking at the list I became inspired to make a deck with Karuga that made every card have the exact same mana value. This deck is the result. \n\nThis deck is very flexible everywhere other than the mana base. If you're making your own version, feel free to change the commander, colors, and really anything else as long as the cmc of every card is 5.\n\nThis deck will not do well in very high powered playgroups. Everything costing 5 means the deck has a slow start, even when playing optimally. \n\n\nHow to Play\nThe most important thing to learn playing this deck is what a good opening hand looks like. Your goal is to hit 5 mana ASAP so you theoretically want to keep a hand that guarantees it. That means you will almost always need one or more storage land ("},{"insert":{"card-link":"Fungal Reaches"}},{"insert":") and/or depletion land ("},{"insert":{"card-link":"Hickory Woodlot"}},{"insert":"). Also, keep an eye out for cards like that let you cheat out early ramp like "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Overlord of the Hauntwoods"}},{"insert":" or "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Beorn, Reluctant Host // Till and Tend"}},{"insert":" . Outside of ramping to 5, cheaty interaction to help you survive until 5 cmc is also important. Look for cards like "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Wistfulness"}},{"attributes":{"color":"#e3e3e3","background":"#232323"},"insert":"Wistfulness and "},{"attributes":{"color":"#e3e3e3","background":"#232323"},"insert":{"card-link":"Whiplash Trap"}},{"attributes":{"color":"#e3e3e3","background":"#232323"},"insert":" to keep yourself alive while you ramp. "},{"insert":"\n\nAfter you hit 5 mana on board start playing bombs. You've got 3 goals\n- Defend yourself\n- Gain the ability to cast more than one spell a turn\n- Work towards the win\n\nTo defend yourself, look for multipurpose interaction either modal spells or permanents. Since everything cost 5 you can't really afford to play interaction that removes one target and does nothing else. "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Surrak Dragonclaw"}},{"insert":" will help your spells resolve, \n"}]}
