Patrons Challenge the Stats: Roon of the Hidden Realms

[hanschristopherson]

Aeriel extortionist is so good, I played it in my roon deck when I had one

[skylarthoma]

“It may have flown under the radar” heh I see what you did there

[Synavis]

I went all the way and removed all spell-based ramp and all mana rocks from my Roon deck, even Sol Ring and Arcane Signet. If you do that, you might have to consider Farhaven Elf, because you end using all options of ETB based ramp. You are also now twice as scared from someone else dropping the second Elesh Norn that shuts down opponent's ETBs, but you are more on ETB theme :D

And my deck was one of the 72 that was using Aerial Extortionist \o/

Aerial Extortionist gets countered or spot-removed immediately every time it hits the board- people are THAT scared of its power. Great card.

[Tuss]

Farhaven Elf I think is one of those cards that isn't actually that bad, and is more a question when you're out buying singles for a brand new deck. If you already have Farhaven Elf, I don't think it that necessary to go out of your way to get Wood Elves instead, but I can see the logic if they're the same price and you're buying either outright (though Wood Elves is less good if you don't have any typed duals, especially for a three colour deck).

This is why Torpor Orb is one of my favorite artifacts.

[TheBlindEternities]

Yo this is a fantastic idea for a series

[DarkJusticeMetal]

Oh hey Dana, didn't expect to hear from you on one of these extra videos. Is this going to be a recurring segment on this channel?

[seaweedsoupmeowington]

aerial extortionist is amazing in my agrus kos and rocco decks

[EvolutionSTUDS]

Can we get a challenge the stats on Sting, Glinting Dagger in Ghyrson Starn, Kellermorph? Specifically pingers... an equipped pinger triggers 4 times a turn cycle and it doesn't attract a lot of attention until it starts going off.

Hello! Was just wondering if you removed the combo tab from EDHREC? I can't seem to find it on desktop!

[velour]

I have a challenge the stats for Laelia, the Blade Reforged. Share the Spoils is only seeing 17% of play, and it's easily the strongest card in my entire deck (at only 2 mana!). Share the spoils often means that I'm casting about 4 spells a turn exiled off of my own library. Often times, I can get insane pulls off of other people's decks, and I've found my opponents rarely pull from the share pile. It's easily the most fun card to play in the deck too, often making for some crazy and unexpected endings.

[FactMan]

I dont understand how arial extortionist is good at all, they get to replay it so it isnt removal, it seems like a worse blink effect.

5 mana for a soft removal piece and conditional card draw? No thanks. 5 mana conflicts with Roon on curve also.. plus you need to use 2 mana after casting Roon to use his ability. Effectively makes that card a 7 cost soft removal for 2-3 pieces. Meh.
