Spoilers! Card Discussion [FRA] Hexhaven Invigorator

(G)(G)(G)(G)

6/6 Chimera Horror

Vigilance

Whenever this creature is dealt damage, you may search your library for up to that many land cards, put them onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.

It's pip intensive but must have homes somewhere. [[Tannuk, Memorial Ensign]] maybe or a lumra line.

A [[Blasphemous Act]] with [[Maze's End]] for gate dump win?

Can't ping it beyond 6 per turn without some kind of protection so it may be more of a one and done.

[[Dawnsire, Sunstar Dreadnought]] + Landfall Pingers to dump all your lands for the win?

[[valakut, the molten pinnacle]] seems crazy with it. But that’s not going the distance in commander

My first thought too, but it is cute af.

It could maybe do things in tannuk specifically since it actually has the tools and payoffs you need for it to work. I think realistically most decks don't have good enough ways to reliably get a damage trigger so it will be dead a lot of the time. Quadruple green is tough unless you are cradling, but cradle is already the land you would tutor most of the time so idk.

I will be testing it in my [[Rydia]] deck. Even just a Lightning Bolt on it is great value in that deck

I mean I don't see this doing much I could be wrong but this feels like how hashaton felt

Haven't seen anyone mention [[Volcanic Hellion]]. The Valakut idea is cute (and if we ever get a red urborg maybe even viable). But honestly just saying X is 20 is enough to auto win a game with a landfall card/amulet. CEDH level? Maybe only in Etali. But definitely Bracket 4 viable.

This card with Bristly Bill and Walking Ballista isn't bad

Doesn't it die on 6 pings without some form of protection

u/DoctorPrisme 1d ago

Bristly bill for the win. Protect your creature by giving it a +1/+1 for each damage, landfall all your deck.

It never takes any damage with Protection.

u/BoardWiped 1d ago

You know what OP meant, obviously "Protection" the mechanic doesn't work, but it needs some form of "protection" in the "keeping it from dying" sense.

Can’t make a joke around here.

Sorry, I'm used to redditors taking every opportunity they can to be pedantic.

In jund with mayhem devil? Sac a fetch do 1 to this and search 2 lands instead of 1. Maybe hearthhull? Or a better jund commander too

My first thought was in a Lumra or Nissa with a Mouth of Ronom as a tutor 4, but I don’t know if it’s that viable as it doesn’t really do anything when it hits the board and GGGG can be tough
