Danitha Capashen, Paragon (and Voltron in Commander)...

Hero"s Blade Vibe Check, an EDH and MTG Podcast ·

2021/11/19

Continuing the legacy of Capashen is no small feat, and rejecting Jhoira is no small feat either. Also check out that side cut, she's pretty cool. Phil returns with another deck of his, a Voltron build of Danitha that has some measure of flexibility. We then change it up and talk about Voltron's viability in our favourite format. Bit of an old dinosaur concept, really. You can find Phil on Twitter and find his variety streams over on Twitch. You can find his Danitha deck on Archidekt.

In an alternate timeline, Barrowin crawled through the Lost Mines of Phandelver, accumulating wealth and magical items to unleash the true power of her god. She would make them all pay for disrespecting her on the top 10 list. On this week's episode, part of a unique double feature test, I brought Jerv on to explain his way of building Barrowin, forgoing aristocrats pieces for more control and stax, while slowly making his way through the path less travelled.

Nadaar faces an adversary on his journey through the Tomb of Annihilation. No Leroy Jankins-ing will help him here, as Barrowin is here to bring the full power of the tomb with her. Philippe finally decided on an uncommon legend to talk about, and decided to throw in some personal flair by making it an evil counterpart to MonoWhiteBorder's (previous guest Peter) Nadaar, Selfless Paladin "Leroy Jankins" deck.

My longtime friend Derek comes on this week's episode to chat about Trelasarra and his interesting way of building a "silver bullet" style deck with a lot of cool and underused pieces and boost her power to the roof while also scrying through half your deck.
