Yeah, I played the deck yesterday. And got it on the field and tapping down the biggest creatures is surprisingly good. And when it got removed it was one of the first to reanimate. And sometimes in 1 turn you can tap 3 or 4 creatures easily. I'm gonna try some upgrades. But this is not going out. Rather cut Kari in this place.

@@DracoX-hz3tu I think Kitesail Freeboter is just a better topdeck draw than Timestream Navigator, if you can't really bring it out for free with haste it has not much upside, I think it's really situational. If you're on the backfoot it's kind of a dead draw while Freeboter is kind of good, it's evasive which helps to activate some damage triggers, and gives you some info about the game.

I very recently got into MTG thanks to my husband who is a big fan and has been playing (mostly on Arena) for about 2 1/2 years or so. I've played 6 games, ever, now against my husband using this Pirate deck, and... I've won each time. 😆 The first 4 times were against a Faerie deck he built, and twice against the recent Vampire deck that came out. The Vampire deck is a lot of fun and definitely challenging to go against. I can't think of the card name, something with Vein in it, but it was a huge pain to fight against with my Pirate deck, because this specific card would exile anything of mine that died. For a pirate deck, I need my pirates in the graveyard haha. I'm excited about some of the suggested cards to switch out with, but I will say that Merchant Raiders absolutely helped me get a big win on one game, and Timestream Navigator has been a great help too in two games for me. For now I'll hold on to them.

ghost of ramirez gets back something that was milled by the general. it has high synergy being re-animated on the turn you cast the general. there is not much in the deck that is able to return to hand from the graveyard, this inclusion is very strong and typically gets through as other pirates are more worthy of being blocked. and as other comments have said, timestream navigator is great in the build.

I've been screwing with the deck for a little bit, converting it into a don andre theft deck, but one card I'm really excited about is changling outcast. One mana for an unblockable shapshifter, which works with the indomitable/bident of thasa, as well as all the "when I pirate deals combat damage to a player..." cards. Cephalid face taker does the same, but can copy one of the "when a pirate does damage" sources, doubling the value. If you have admiral brass and both of them, you only need to hit with one more pirate to steal a commander permanently. They're nice cheap little dudes that aren't flashy, but have a lot of synergy with the deck.

I don’t agree with the analysis on timestream navigator. first, if your opponent wants to use their removal on it, by all means. removal is a premium and this is a 2mv card. secobdly, extra turns are better turn 5 or 6 than turn 4, and in a pirate deck with treasure it shouldn’t be difficult to get an extra turn by turn 6. I’d rather the opponent use removal on this than a big expensive creature that uses a big amount of mana for the turn.
