Momir – Midweek Magic Event Guide

Hey everyone! Has it been a week already? I guess that means that it is time for another Midweek Magic. You know that part of the Lion King where Simba asks about the shadowy place over there? Some people would consider Momir that dark place. There are some people who love it, but it does have quite a few detractors that tend to be quite loud about it. It is what it is. On the bright side, all of your wild cards are safe.

Momir is very simple. Your entire deck is basic lands and you have an emblem that let’s you pay x mana to discard a card to create a random creature of that casting cost. There really isn’t that much strategy involved, but I’ll go over what little there is after some event info.

Event Details

Use the emblem, discard a card, and pay X to create a token copy of a random creature card with mana value X. Every turn is a surprise!

General Strategy

The general consensus is that eight is the magic number for the casting cost that you want to get up to and keep making creatures at. Without hitting any mana rampers or card draw, that means you want to start using the emblem on turn three if you’re on the play and turn two if you’re on the draw.

Combat math can be really important here. You don’t have to worry about any tricks that aren’t on board since the decks are all land. Take the time and figure it out.

Obviously, there is a lot of luck involved. Any form of ramp can put you so far ahead of your opponent, but in most games it is really who hits on those late game rolls that matter.
