The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Deck Description

A legacy twist on the Progenitis copy deck, this deck is to copy Akroma, Angel of wrath, with a deck that uses blue mana.

Reality Twist, Reality Strobe and Disruptive Pitmage are optional, but the combo takes a decent amount of time to pull off, and these cards really help to keep the tempo towards your side so you can get the ball rolling with the angel copies.

You do realize that you put Akroma, Angel of Fury (the one with prot blue, but morph) in here instead of Angel of Wrath (the better one, but no morph) and in your description it states Wrath, but if you had wrath you couldn't play it using Dermoplasm.

Also Thanks to the Prot Blue of Fury you can't enchant it with followed footsteps (or any creature copying it) since as soon as it turns over the enchantment fizzles off so the shapeshifter must remain facedown.

When the shapeshifter is facedown and has followed footsteps on it, the tokens generated are 2/2 nameless and colorless creature tokens, NOT copies of the shapeshifter facedown. This is what it says on the MTG main site:


Q: How does Followed Footsteps work with morph? --Brad

A: You'll get a 2/2 creature with no name and no abilities. The morph effect doesn't apply to these "vanilla" creatures.


Also 2 Rulings for you (these are legit and striaght from the cards image on this site):

If another creature copies Vesuvan Shapeshifter while it's face up, the new creature will become a copy of whatever Vesuvan Shapeshifter is copying and gain the "you may turn this creature face down" ability. It won't gain morph {1}{U}. If that creature is then turned face down, its copy effect will continue and it'll be a face-down version of whatever it's copying. If the creature it's copying has morph, it can be turned face up. If the creature it's copying doesn't have morph, it's stuck face down forever unless some other effect (like Break Open) turns it face up again

If Vesuvan Shapeshifter copies a face-down creature, it becomes a face-up 2/2 colorless nameless creature with no abilities other than the one it gives itself.


Sorry but the rules are the rules, and prot blue and morph rules trump getting tokens of the Angel. The major problem is that you can't copy the shapeshifter itself when it is face up without giving it +1/+1 since it will die. Find a way (there are TONS) to give your creature +1/+1 permanently and you can keep the original shapeshifter as a shapeshifter since all its abilities say "may" it will not die due to the +1/+1 and when you make copies of it they will be shapeshifters which can copy the angel.

Sorry this is so long, but many people believe in their combos so much that you have to PROVE that it doesn't work, this WILL WORK if you follow the end of this comment.

Actually read the end of it, It took me so long to write that that you posted your comments while I was writing it. Haha.

The deck isn't junk, it's just in need of some tweaking.
