With Phyrexia: All Will Be One’s release, we have five festival events to play in to celebrate! Battle your way through Singleton events with different emblems in order to claim as many ichor card styles as you can! Today, I’ll be covering the third event, The Surgical Bay.
Tread carefully in the Surgical Bay; its entire surface is covered in a swirling sea of quicksilver and oil. The sky is lit by ominous, eye-like lights that report every movement to Jin-Gitaxias in his spire-top laboratory.
Dates: February 19, 2023 8AM PST – February 22, 2023 8AM PST
While this Emblem isn’t as powerful as the previous two, I think it’s still good enough to build around! To make good use of it, you do need to go three colors as the Toxic nor Proliferate themes are deep enough, but the fixing should be good enough to make it work. That said, if you want to circumvent the emblem, going with the Mono Black or Mono Red deck from the previous event is a great option (I’ll embed those below)!
A much more controlling take on Proliferate, Esper is all about getting that first poison counter and then rapidly generating more through the many proliferate cards we have access to.
A mix of the two previous decks, Sultai allows you most of the best Toxic threats as well as the great Black Proliferate cards offering you a very balanced experience.
