Deck discussion for Triad of Fates EDH

Looks promising! The only thing I see "wrong" with this deck is its manabase. You almost have twice as much white as you got black in there. Might add an Knight of the White Orchid to get more white easily. And adjust the amount of Plains/Swamps a bit, maybe even add some cheap duallands like an Orzhov Guildgate and others :)

Thanks for the input - I'll consider changing up the mana base once the cards arrive. I know its a bit off atm, but not sure how much effect that will have, due to the high cc of most the cards. Was considering adding land tax, as just so overpowered.

Land tends to be the last thing I consider, and is not particularly worrying when building 2 color decks, with the exception of my Rakdos, Lord of Riots deck.

I hope I haven't missed anything else which is an obvious must - I'd previously missed strionic resonator, even though it fits perfectly.

I added a few cards, but didn't decide what to remove yet.

The reason for no planewalkers is I didn't feel there were any which interacted with the rest of the deck well enough. I like my EDH decks to be focused on 1 thing - I find that the play becomes a bit samey otherwise, with a core set of cards to include which are overpowered - demonic tutor, balance, land tax etc. I try to shy away from these, as they don't directly help Triad with what it's doing. I considered a lilianna vess, since I have 2 lying around, but its only the ulti which interacts nicely with the rest of the deck, and only then with numerous creatures in the graveyard, in which case lilianna is most likely under control already.

I have ordered the cards needed to complete this deck, and after some play testing will decide what changes are required.

I do appreciate the comments, and if you have any specific suggestions on what I should include, I look forward to hearing them.

So I've now removed 3 cards to bring it down to 99... Penarch Paladin, Angelic Renewal and the white goat dude with chroma (forget his name). But I have also added in myr battlesphere and cauldron of souls....

Another option might be the black god for draw power? The white god can give you bodies and gives your creatures vigilance? Again they may not fit with the rest of the deck but are still nice.

I did consider the gods, they are definitely very strong. I think the card draw is nice for 2, and of course the opponents can't gain life. I'm not as sure about Heliod though, 4 mana for a 1/1 is a lot, and in a deck where the commander already has mana cost abilities, and a high all round cc, i don't think I'd use the ability much.

I think I'll put Erebos in, but will leave it like this for now as the cards are on their way, and play testing will help me decide what to remove.

With the release of Roon of the Hidden Realm, this deck will no longer be in action:( But on the plus side, I think I can create a far better Roon deck.

Aye, Roon is so much better. But not having access to black changes the deck completely. Luckily they made Eye of Doom! More Fate Counters!
