Most of our card draw will be powered by Eloise’s clue tokens, but that doesn’t mean we can add a few more ways as well. As we’ll go through later on, Ashnod’s Altar in particular is a key part of the deck, serving a few different combos that can win the game – if you’re only running one sacrifice outlet in your Eloise deck, make sure it’s Ashnod’s Altar. Ashnod’s Altar, Soldevi Adnate, Culling the Weak, and Dark Ritual can provide immediate boosts of mana, which, especially in the early game, can help immensely to speed things up. There are a few temporary mana sources worth using, as well.

It sacrifices to find lands, which then also triggers Eloise to make a clue token. One that fits nicely into our strategy is Burnished Hart. Lots of clue tokens potentially also mean lots of draw, and so a Thought Vessel is always a good idea. Sol Ring and Arcane Signet aside, Talisman of Curiosity and Dimir Signet both help significantly. Primarily, our ramp is coming through mana rocks. Rampĭespite having some of the most disruptive cards in the Commander format, Dimir (blue and black) really struggles with some of the basics, like ramp. Finding ways to kill and re-kill our own creatures to make as many token artifacts as we can, and then finding interesting ways to finish the board off with them is our goal. Though seeing Surveil come back is exciting, it is that first ability we’re primarily going to be building around. Whenever you sacrifice a token, you can surveil the top card of your library. As long as she’s out, whenever a creature token dies, you investigate (create a Clue token that can be sacrificed to draw a card). And it’s through this card that we’re building this week’s deck: Artifact Token Aristocrats with Eloise, Nephalia Sleuth.Įloise, Nephalia Sleuth is a 4/4 Human Rogue that costs three generic, one blue and one black. While hardly the biggest outrage of the year for Magic the Gathering, there were a lot of discussions about the point of keywording phrases like Surveil if they’re then not going to be used in future sets.ĭespite all that, Wizards still brought Surveil to one of the Midnight Hunt Commander precon decks, thanks to an exclusive card that debuted with the precon. While the card mechanically does the exact same thing as the Surveil keyword (look at the top card of your library, either keep it on top or put it into your graveyard), Wizards of the Coast decided it fit better to not use ‘Surveil’, and instead limit the number of keywords present in each set. One of the first cards to be introduced for Innistrad: Midnight Hunt was Consider, and it caused something of a small controversy.
