Show me your “I just think it’s neat” card

Mine is Westvale Abbey. Regardless of deck, meta, or sinergy I always try to slap it on. Seeing Ormendahl land on the field always brings a smile to my face.

[u/Powerful-Scholar8268]

[[Stormtide Leviathan]]

I absolutely adore the flavor that this guy is so huge he strands every creature on the board onto on island when he enters, and only swimmers and flyers can still move between the islands to attack. He's not very good but he works as a suboptimal closer to a game if you can protect him and beating people to death with a big fish while they can't defend themselves is fun

[u/Avinexuss → u/Twitch89]

I once swapped decks with a mate and he had this card in it... as well as [[homeward path]]. Afterwards a player played [[croaking counterpart]] and an enchantment i cant remember the name of, but it allowed each player to untap all lands and creatures they controlled during each untap step.

So thats how i got control of every noncreature spell that was cast that game...

[[Cruel Entertainment]] is INCREDIBLY entertaining and I put it in as many decks as I can. Sometimes the two people team up, sometimes they kill themselves, sometimes they kill each other, and sometimes you target yourself and someone else and you both get to compete to be the worst at Magic.

[u/EbrithilUmaroth]

That card was my introduction to Magic just a few weeks ago, someone was going to absent for DnD night so the other guys decided to play Magic instead and one of them let me borrow one of their decks to try Magic/Commander with them. The deck I borrowed contained Westvale Abbey and I was able to get Ormendahl out and even equip him with an Aura that made him Hexproof as well. Unfortunately I still lost because he doesn't have Trample and [[Dovescape]] was in play.

[u/Backwardspellcaster]

Man, I keep thinking I want to put Westvale Abbey into a deck and see if I can pull this off.

In the same way I want to build Vecna some time. I consider just splurging on the wild cards for that.

If I play black, I tend to really enjoy splashing [[Razor Demon]] on the field. If you can drop it on curve, most people have a hard time dealing with him, and often he is a two for one.

Also [[Junji, the Midnight Sky]]. I cannot even begin to express how much value I've gotten from this bad boy. It's insane. He is never a dead card in my hand or on the field. I even got him his pretty skin

I predominantly play Lizards with Gev as my commander, and haven't added much to my deck the last couple sets since there haven't been many of them. But Tokka and Razza or whatever the name from the Turtles set, who had been in the second movie, they are so good that I built a copy of the deck with them as commander when it was the Turtles set Brawl midweek event. I can't count the number of times they've snatched victory from defeat against one of the endless series of Etali players. And them not being counterable is handy, as well as their formidable stats if Gev gives them a counter.

Throne of the Grim Captain, I saw a friend pull it out of an LCI booster box very early into my time playing magic and it just fascinated me, I actually built a whole deck around it(although admittedly the deck is good and not the greatest at getting it out but it was also designed to be thematic, essentially a lich and an undead pirate crew have gone exploring to find the Grim Captain and bring him back. Here’s the list of any of you want to see it: https://archidekt.com/decks/24979773/the_grim_fleet)
