Octavia is definitely a breath of fresh air in terms of monoblue commander since it's used more for an aggro strategy than a control one. The deck is juggling doing multiple things with singular motions so it's very fun to pilot. Best of all, with the core concept of the deck, you can still build this on a super tight budget with very few changes.

I can only recommend Sakashima's Will. It gives you an extra creature, triggers magecraft to turn something into 8/8 (hopefully something unblockable) and then your whole board turns into that 8/8 unblockable! talk about alpha striking in mono blue

@TheCommanderTavern 2 жыл бұрын

Unfortunately, "Sakashima's Will copies the printed values of the chosen creature. It won’t copy any counters on that creature or any effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on. Notably, it won’t copy effects that made the chosen creature become a creature if it isn’t normally a creature. For example, if you choose a land that’s become a creature, all your other creatures will become noncreature lands until end of turn." That rule's taken straight from its Oracle rulings. So it won't turn your whole board into 8/8's. That being said, turning all of your creatures into copies of Archmage Emeritus, Final Iteration, etc. can be pretty epic in and of itself (plus the bonus of taking a creature from an opponent - even if they choose which one it is).

Sakashima octave then clones then you get a tonne of unblockable 8/8s easy, alternatively have a flying creature engine and it becomes even more devastating.

I always enjoy your deck techs. It would be awesome if you could do one on the Mimeoplasm.

Lol, same. I didn't make a video for it earlier solely due to the avalanche of nonstop content coming out of WotC.

The only thing I don't like about my Octavia deck Is that I feel like I'm doing absolutely nothing until I got something to do and then by that time everyone's outraged me. But saying that the dick is never gotten blown out and I've always had a reasonable amount of fun playing it.

@TheCommanderTavern 2 жыл бұрын

Same. I feel like the design kept it tame at having to have no less than 8 instants and sorceries and it's not a reductive effect. For example, it doesn't cost X less where X is the # of instants and sorceries in your graveyard. That's why I went with the 1-drop cantrip approach. They replace themselves and if I'm playing on curve, I play 1 Turn 1, 2 Turn 2, 3 Turn 3 and then by Turn 4 I already have 6 in the yard, so 2 more get me to Octavia Turn 4 (hopefully).

The word eight appears 11 times on the card.

Octavia (that's a name and is not the number nor the word 8), octopus, nor the 8 in the 081 of the set numbers count. I'm only counting the 8's in the casting cost, textbox, and p/t along with the word eight in the text box.

@vasylpark2149 9 ай бұрын

@TheCommanderTavern okay, it was a joke, but in reality, octo means eight. I do like the build and am building a version of it.
