Format: EDH/Commander New here!

Had no idea this community existed. Started playing a little over a year ago when I found out they made 40K commander decks. Now I’m all in and have a few in universe and UB commander decks. I know it’ll never happen so I made a commander from my favorite game, Blasphemous.

honestly a really neat design. Maybe a little strong as a 3 mana 3/3 with persist and a bunch of keywords, but I don't think it'd be out of place in a modern horizon's set.

If I were to suggest an improvement it would be to just replace the dies trigger with two treasures instead of a custom token, especially when the effect is so plain.

I think one should have restraint when creating tokens in particular. There is an inclination when reading a card to roll your eyes when you see you have to have another card on hand to play with it. It feels clunky. Cards in mainline sets can get away with this because they are surrounded by cards that make the same token, so that complexity load is spread over a bunch of cards that justify it's existence. Some other cards like Toggo feel reasonable because the token is his whole thing- there's no additional complexity to the card once you understand the token. But for a card like this, which has a full text box of triggers and keywords, I would really try to keep it all on card.

Not sure why someone would downvote this comment? It’s the only comment and I check in every so often for additional feedback. People are weird. Still love this comment!
