Yet again, I'll sacrifice my commander to Claws of Gix.

Sorry. I had intended to post yesterday evening, but I was exhausted and fell asleep. Anyway, I'll cast Talisman of Dominance. Done. Mooseman: 38 Dmg from commander: 0/21 Hand: 3 Library: 76 Command Zone (0): 2URW Sevinne, the Chronoclasm (URW) (Human Wizard, 2/2, Prevent all damage that would...

The Savra deck was the first time I brought Spike Weaver to the West Coast Commander League. Here were the other instances, in order... 7/14/19: Reyhan, Last of the Abzan & Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix “Bearadise Lost” Mostly, Spike Weaver was a defensive stopgap here, as I was trying to buy time...

So... Yesterday, I was pulling cards out of storage boxes to hunt for cards a some miscellaneous Standard uncommons a friend needed, and I happened to spot the deckbox with my "The Spikes" precon. So yes, it sure was in there. And it's been so long that I can't really be sure if that was the...

The deck that first got me set on this path of overusing Spike Weaver in EDH was the one I built for the April 14, 2019 meetup of the West Coast Commander League. I named it "If You Wanna Fight That's Fine With Me." The name is taken from a single line in an obscure, defunct webcomic. I liked...

It will only be a zombie for as long as it stays on the battlefield. If it leaves and comes back again, it won't be a zombie anymore.

UUD, I'll cast Ever After on Ramses Overdark and Shadowmage Infiltrator. Responses?

I'll leave Ramses in the graveyard. Think the rest is right, though.

In response, I'll activate Ramses Overdark to destroy Ajani's Pridemate. Holding priority, I'll sac Ramses Overdark to Claws of Gix. Pass priority.

The "spikes" were a creature type from Rath Block, aka Tempest Block. They were spread out across all three sets in the block. I just want to take a moment to note how awesome of a block this was. These days, it's somewhat overlooked as either part of the "old" sets, or as something toward early...

It's been a while since I did one of these. And after revisiting a crappy old creature I used to use when I was new to the game, I thought Spike Weaver deserved a thread, being the creature that last year saw, by far, the most play in my decks. I mean, did you catch this thread? I compiled some...

No response.

UUD, Arcum's Astrolabe (drawing card), Snow-Covered Swamp, Despondency on Talrand, Launch on Ajani's Pridemate, Fallen Ideal on Wall of Reverence, done. Mooseman: 38 Dmg from commander: 0/21 Hand: 3 Library: 77 Command Zone (0): 2URW Sevinne, the Chronoclasm (URW) (Human Wizard, 2/2, Prevent...

No response.

I'll actually put my last untapped mana source to use and sac Launch to Claws of Gix. But I have no further responses and of course I'll choose Ramses Overdark to stay alive. So Launch goes back to my hand, I gain 1 life, and then Shadowmage Infiltrator and Phyrexian Gargantua will die on by...

I remain surprised that you'd boardwipe now, but I guess I'll roll with it. In response to the Divine Reckoning, I'll activate Stinging Licid, enchanting Mooseman's Clever Impersonator (which is copying my Ramses Overdark).

I mean, yeah, he has enough mana to flashback Divine Reckoning if he wants to.

Runic Repetition can't target cards in graveyards.

UUD, Arcane Lighthouse, Claws of Gix. I'll sac Despondency to the Claws, then replay Despondency on Augury Adept. I'll cast Launch on Raven Familiar. Done after that. Mooseman: 38 Dmg from commander: 0/21 Hand: 4 Library: 78 Command Zone (0): 2URW Sevinne, the Chronoclasm (URW) (Human Wizard...

If you leave the game, Phyrexian Gargantua leaves with you. If I leave the game while I control Phyrexian Gargantua, it goes into your exile zone.
