@@johnstarinieri7360 I like the long play. Maskwood Nexus is a tribal staple. So Raphael has death touch devils that also double as spiders to ping things when they die. Even without the nexus out Raphael, Fiendish Savior also gives Shelob the demon lifelink. The same goes for mono black Shelob. Pair it with Saryth, the Vipers Fang, Raphael, and Nexus to achieve ultimately the same effect but the actual creature and not a food token of it. Honestly mono black Shelob may be the more threatening of the two when it comes to combos, but perhaps not combat.

Just a tip, i run shelob in MTGA, and once you have shelob on the board your opponent will do everythijg they can to not attack you and exile as much as possible. So you wont have many creatures in the graveyard for these effects unless you do it yourself. I recommend any and all token doublers and a lot of fight spells. Primal vigor/doubling season and tutor roaming throne out use malamet battle/prey upon/bushwhack to decide which effects your opponents creatures have that you want. You make 4+ of EACH each time one gets hit by a fight spell (legendaries multiply too but of course you can only have one) once you have your opponents main effects cards and use them against you its smooth sailing from there

So I'm just curious but Shelob, child of ungoliant just makes food tokens right? It says it's a copy of a creature that dies except its a food token and loses all other card types. If it's just a food token, is there any instant that it would matter that it's a copy like that?
@JKnoxDram
Жыл бұрын
It still has any abilities the creature would have, except those abilities are on an artifact you can sacrifice for life. So, for example, if you kill an Urza, Lord High Artificer and turn it into a food token, you can then use all your food tokens to generate blue mana.
