Forest is Roaring Primadox from M13.



Place Dominus of Fealty's effect on the stack on top of Roaring Primadox. Dominus let's you steal a creature and Primadox will send it back to their hand. I know it's not as good as Thragtusk + Primadox but still pretty nifty.

Why on EARTH wouldn't you attack with it or something???

There are all sorts of 1 use spells that will work instead of the primadox, and which will make this combo 1 color. AND you can still attack before you send it back.

IMHO you've created more of a minor annoyance than a game changing combo.

Sorry ma'am, I missed the part in my writeup where I mentioned that this was a game changing combo. Maybe I could get some pointers from some of YOUR amazing combos? Oh? You don't have any? That's unfortunate.

Anyways, maybe I was trying to create a minor annoyance? Who says that's a bad thing? Maybe I'd pair this with Soul Barrier to really get the rage going. Or maybe I'd just be getting ready to Donate my Primadox right after I use him, just to fuck with my opponent? Ya sure, there are a ton of blue spells that I could use, but that's boring as hell and I like to think I'm a little more clever than taking the obvious route.

On a side note, Primadox is a horrible creature. I'd almost prefer if he were a vanilla 4/4 for 4 mana. That way maybe he'd see some draft action. I'd like to see YOU come up with a decent Primadox combo. I expect great things from you Miss issacgaretmia. Don't disappoint! :)

When the opponents board is clear of blockers it doesnt matter how many creatures you attck with end results will be the same
As for primadox being "horrible" are you on crack? A 4/4 for 4 is awesome by itself throw in the opportunity to repeatable abuse ETB abilities, just takes the cake. Keep discarding with ravenous rats, kill creatures with big game hunter/nightshade assassian, make your 4/4 a 7/7 with briarhorn, get two creatures a turn with mogg war marshall, bounce with aether adapt, tutor with ranger of eos. Endless possibilities

Very true! Those are all very good uses for him. I guess my main issue with him is that a staregy like that ties up your mana for recasting your bounced creatures every turn. Also a 4/4 for 4 is average. I'd still prefer my Obstinate Baloth over this dude.

Also, maybe I AM on crack! Maybe thats not a cigarette at all in that fish's mouth!

The ETB abilities are often worth the mana though.

Like Mystic Snake.

And how about the new card thragtusk with it. 5 life and a 3/3 each turn, yeah ill be cool with that

Throw rancor on primadox to attack each turn as well

Oh ya, I'm digging the Thragtusk. Especially with all the new bouncing cards that came in with Avacyn Restored. Deadeye Navigator? Sure. Hahaha

So your point is that you weren't intending to post the most effective
combo in the world, that you were trying to make a horrible card useful,
and that because I haven't posted any combos I cannot possibly have the
right to point out that a combo is much better off without your
horrible card?



Well, I shouldn't be expecting much more from someone who reads a name,
sees 2 male names and 1 female name sandwiched together, and decides
that the poster is female.

Ignoring all that, you seem to have completely missed my point that adding primadox to your Dominus actually makes a WORSE combo than Dominus on its own.

At least we can agree that Primadox is a bad card!

If you're looking for something useful, why not try an Acidic Slime or Eternal Witness combo? Destroying lands every turn or nabbing cards from your graveyard is usually a good thing.

I\'m pretty sure that we've already established that Primadox is a useful card.

roaring primadox on feild, something to keep it safe like asceticism or elgaud sheild mate then cycle bond beatles and/or timberland guide for constant growth, to any creatures, so inhancing someone like sacred wolf would be an extra safe option.

then you can use cards like crowned ceratok or sapphire drake to give your buffed creatures additional effects. ive had games where ive gotten a 9/9 tample hexproof regenerate for 1 +1 forest with lifelink. (i also use wolfir silverheart in this deck to get people big fastbecause i found that against another deck that makes strong creatures its not quite fast enough.)

also useful in a simic deck, similar to leyline phantom, except cheaper. unfortunatley this strategy does not work as well seeing as how eventualy your going to want your creatures out still.

other enter the feild effects also work like thragtusk or something cheaper like ravenous rats. morbid effects from cards like wakedancer also work this way especialy if you have reasembling skeletons and cards like disciple of grislebrand or demonmail hauberk where the mana cost to activate morbid effects is very minor. also things like slum reaper can clear the field for you.

basicly any creature with an enter the battlefeild effect will work very well with this card.

forgot to add in cards like cathedral cathar. 3 life for i think its like one mana? amazing. you can beuild a deck around this card simply by finding creatures with the right effects.

also look at emansipation angel and cloud shift or deadeye navigator for similar effects
