So I'm making a Hanna deck.
Decided that I'm going for the durdliest pillow fort / hate / value deck. Pretty much just want to sit there, fuck shit up, and make value until somehow I've accidentally won. What are some good cards for this? In a meta without combo decks.

Shit I've already got in there as examples:
peacekeeper
torpor orb
witchbane orb
elixir of immortality
teferi's care
>>
>>43630117
Mindslaver lock for when the game is down to 1v1.

Mami-san what are you doin
>>
>>43630117
Screw witchbane orb. Get a Shell of the Last Kappa.
>>
>>43630117
>Accidentally won

That's the problem right there. Even with all that shit, if you don't have a winning game plan, someone WILL win through you and then you'll be playing archenemy next time.

I have a Hanna deck that I switched to UW control and its wonderful. http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/hanna-ships-combo-and-control/

>>43630240
Trying to protect myself from stuff like tormod's crypt and bojuka bog. Hanna loves that graveyard.

>>43630249
I have a few things like mind control, treachery, bribery, clones, etc. I'll get there, it will just take a while.
How do you like leyline of anticipation? I'm considering including it.
One thing I have been debating with myself on. Which is better to include?
-swords to plowshares / path to exile
-oblivion ring / banishing light

Normally not even a debate, you should take the 1-cost instants. But in my deck, the enchantments "combo" with claws of gix and teferi's care. After they've exiled something, I can grab it back with Hanna and keep exiling permanents every turn. More durdly advantage.

>>43630433
Leyline is love. That being said, I have thought about cutting it in the past. However, it's either bait for removal, or it lets me flash in a win condition eot. For those reasons, it stays.

As for the removals, I don't think mine is up to date (I might fix that after work actually).

The truth of the matter is that in 90% of situations, Swords/Path will be better than O-ring and friends because they're a 1 mana instant that permanently removes a problem. Ring has the added benefit of hitting non creatures and being recurable with Hanna, which can't be ignored. This is by I run Detention Sphere. Multiple nonland targets and comes back with the commander and Sun Titan. My most recent slot was making room for Stasis Snare because while it can only hit creatures, it's an enchantment with flash, which puts it well into the realm of playable in Hanna control. I really want to use Aligned Headron Network, but it's too narrow for the mana investment.

I've put a lot of tuning into my deck, and my answer is use both. Even without Gix, having repeatable removal is never bad, and worst case scenario, you bump a commander back to the command zone. Just be careful because some o-ring effects (funny enough, not actually o-ring) will pull commanders back from the command zone of they never left when the ring dies.

Ok, so how do I make her work?
Her playstyle seems like Memnarch's, but are there any special cards, other than Leyline of Singularity, that could help her case out? Like, anything that could alter their type to Legendary Creature?

no. removing the last counter doesn't cause the enchantment to be sacrificed. it's only on your upkeep when the permanent has no fading counters to be removed. throw in an auratog and we might have something though.

>>43634389
But that doesn't work.

>>43634348
You need a sacrifice effect since Fading does not send the permanent to the GY until a fading counter cannot be removed, not when the last fading counter is removed.

>>43634389
To be fair you do need Resonator to be able to stack the flicker effects the way you need to. But like a billion things combo with Brago and Resonator.

>>43635344
You are wasting a card. Just forcing everyone to play revealed is a worthless effect because it does nothing. Also your games will take 10x as long because there is so much additional revealed information that everyone will have to pore over everyone else's hand before making a move in fear of being perceived to have made a stupid play based on the information they knew.

In other words, absolutely not worth it. It slows the game down and is actually not helpful. Given that, the flavor text is quite appropriate.
>>
>>43635436
>Also your games will take 10x as long because there is so much additional revealed information

That was one problem I thought could happen.
The other is that it might even be helpful to my opponents. If somebody has no threats in hand, people will leave them alone. However, because my hand is always hidden, people will always see me as a threat.

I don't actually have a RW deck at all. I want one, but can't bring myself to at one. I have:

Pharika land affliction
Jeleva Control the Infinite
Liliana MBC
Hanna combo control
Akroma angels tribal
Chandra burn control

Between Iroas and Aurelia, both are great. I lean toward Iroas because he makes combat laughably unfavorable, but Aurelia is probably actually better.

Of course legend isn't a creature type. Shapesharer can turn shapeshifters into copies of other creatures though. So you use Unnatural Selection to turn a creature into a shapeshifter, and then turn it into a copy of a legend to steal it.

You'll probably need that leyline that stops the legend rule for this to work.
