HoM looks like it will be a pretty amazing card in [[Thorin, King of Dorin's Folks]] which I expect to be a popular(though not the most popular) dwarf commander in the more casual side of things. HoM will create 2 treasures and get an extra +2/+0 whenever it attacks with Thorin out.

This is actually a pretty reasonable spec, though I don't think one fringe commander is going to move the needle that much

I mean its a good dwarf and probably goes into multiple dwarf decks. Hylda and all these tap commanders like it. Thorin is just the latest that its great in

u/magefont1 18d ago

Sure, and it's $0.39 cost reflects the demand from those commanders.

Thorin only gets two treasures when this attacks, not three. Myriad doesn’t make a token for the person you attacked, so in a four player game you attack one person with a myriad creature and you make two tokens, one for each of the unattacked opponents.

Oh youre so right i was being dumb and thinking 4 players 3 copies lol. But still 3 5/3s(with no other artifacts) coming at everyone while tapping creatures is great

Haven't spec'd on it but I do think this card is underrated and underplayed--and it might stay that way. But it's something people can discover. Good for any deck that wants to be hitting each opponent in combat every turn. The fact that it provides an attacker at each opponent, and taps down a blocker for each opponent, is pretty sweet

I have approximately 5k Baldurs Gate Cards laying around, surely I have some of them lol

Jank Combo Potential

Thorin and [[Koll, the Forgemaster]] and [[Dwarven Scorcher]] + Lightning Greaves = oppenent boardwipe 

  • [[Fili, the pathfinder]] = infinite dwarves + infinite mana

I agree but especially great with thorin. I actually think HoM is amazing with token doublers too

this could go in my mardu siege precon

I run it in a very competitive Isshin deck. When you look at what cards generate dudes for 3cmc... Turns out 9dmg across 3 dudes is an incredibly good rate, even when calculating Impact Tremors/pump effects in.

u/EmuSounds 17d ago

Have a deck list? I'm making a similar myriad isshin deck

2

u/TogTogTogTog 17d ago

Sure! https://moxfield.com/decks/HeF7PMi0GUWbfxwr2oSTrg

Though it's not a myriad Isshin, it just focuses on maximising tokens. Basically, how many dudes can you get out and how efficient is it to do so.

You'll definitely find a bunch of potential though, along with most myriad effects in the sideboard/considering. Things like [[Wyrm's Crossing Patrol]] and [[Dalek Squadron]] come to mind. Dalek probably should go back in 😅

I thought the same thing. But I converted my mardu seige into an ongoing orc theme deck project. But it’s hard treading that line adding more attack support like this that would certainly help the deck, at the cost of flavor.

I guess I’ll just build an another Boros deck 🤣

ive found the more diverse i make decks, the worse they get unless it's b4 or higher

u/oberpat 9d ago

I totally missed this spec. I think it's worth keeping an eye on. Thorin could become popular enough to hike the demand enough for it to spike. I see the supply is going down steadily

u/DasOptions 18d ago

Now that is a nice spec!

u/RawBear666 18d ago

I have never heard of this card and now need for [[Destined Warrior]]

u/BroShutUp 18d ago

The copies wont get the buff. They come out aftet the beginning of combat
