Smeagol re-enacts the British empire

Smeagol 3.0 is also gonna be a more experimental phase where i see what more i can do to make le bullshit more consistent. Dumped some old chaff (fuck youuu reliquary tower and rogues passage you colourless fucks) and added some fresh heat (staff of eden is NUTS and disciple of freyalise is hot). Lets see how this goes!!

[Experimental] Smeagol 3.0 - "I Should Pay More Attention To EDHRec" Edition

I now own all these cards in paper!!! not the exact printings of each but oh well thats for another time. now, onto tuning with SMEAGOL 3.0!!!!1!!!11!!!!11111!!!!!!!!!1!1!1

Smeagol 2.1.4 - Paper Complete Edition

Bought some new big swingers and want to give them a shot - not sure on Ouphe but maybe itll help lock others out of a win?

Smeagol 2.1.3

Saving here before mods to make sure all cards saved are ownership tagged correctly.

Smeagol 2.1.2 Save

—CUT—
Liliana, Dreadhorde General - dies = draw a card is good! not when theres a potential infinite in the deck that would make this potentially mill me out. Other than that, her abilities aren’t valuable enough for the deck.
—ADD—
Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger - oh, vorinclex, how mean you are. I feel like this deck is at the point where one card with this level of bullshit is okay - its on a creature so its removable and while it does hurt to remove it, its not insane.

Smeagol 2.1.1

Smeagol fucking DRAWS now. one ring is filthy. I think i still need some more big threats, like Avenger of Zendikar, but we'll get to that later.

Smeagol 2.1 - The Draw Edition

Heres where we're at in 2024! Works well, we're on tuning duty now. Card draw is still a sore point to work on, and refining the manabase.
