What creatures are you sacrificing for life gain? Serra Avatar? To me anything large enough to be considered good life gain is a horrible trade for board position. If you are just sacing things randomly that are going to die anyways, then I could see Miren would be best for that, as having a land that doesn't produce mana can be very awkward. I'd put high market over valley in that case for the same reason.

I think you misunderstood my entire post. I'm not looking for a sacrifice outlet. I'm looking to play the lands mainly to gain life.

Don't they just tap their lands in response to you playing Piracy? No more mana burn, so all it likely does is just tap your opponents out.

If your assuming that I'm just playing creatures to sacrificing randomly, thanks for assuming that I'm dumb.

I tried to engage you on that in my last response because I thought I finally understood what you were asking about. What creatures are you sacrificing for life gain?

I don't think you're stupid which is why I put "unless you are saccing creatures randomly that will die anyways" like gaining life in response to wrath or Swords to Plowshares, then Miren is going to work for you because it adds mana.

Psrex mentioned saccing things to preacher and then stealing more creatures. Here I think Valley is better because it ties up a lot less mana (even though it doesn't produce mana itself).

If you want a cad that does similar thing, use Drain Power.

Possibly an answer to Hinder/Crumple/Condemn that any deck can run if they are hurt by having their general tucked.

I've been using Godo with Horde of Notions as my general. And I've been doling out the punishment.

Decent, but its harder to abuse Godo if he's not your General

Had someone play nature's revolt and smash me for a decent amount of damage. On my turn I tutor up decree of pain with 5 mana up, then pass turn. I figured this would dissuade people from attacking me. Well on the next turn the guy w/ 2x magus of the coffers and a graveborn muse for some reason casts infest... so I respond with a cycle on decree leaving only nature's revolt in play. It took me 3 turns (because lands have summoning sickness), but an animate dead on my sheoldred sure locked that game up pretty fast. Sac a land every turn and new lands you play have summoning sickness? lol

Epic!

This is why i love EDH!

Not worthless but no more play with them is sad

3rd General to be banned.

LED is back in EDH!

Does the price of Erayo, Soratami Ascendant drop now? Or is it played somewhere else?

Price was largely due to being used in some Modern-affinity builds. Not really because of Commander.

I heard about the GenCon Erayo horde, but I've never actually seen it played locally. Based on the descriptions though I have no problems with it being gone.

Considering you could play him as a general in a format where mana ramping is easy. It wouldn't be difficult to cast him and 3 1 mana spells on turn 4 even in EDH.
