Gating

Gating (Visual)

- This is an experimental deck (work in progress) with lots of creatures with "when this ETBs, bounce another creature". I was originally focused on creatures with "Gating" (return my own creature to hand), to abuse ETB triggers like Aura Shards. But I soon realized that the "ETB bounce anyone's creature" cards (like Man-o'-war) weren't much more expensive (mana-wise). So I've been switching to those, to give myself the option of what to bounce.
- When this deck gets going it's amusing, but it's having trouble. It needs more "whenever a creature enters the battlefield..." triggers for it to work. Panharmonicon and/or Aluren are insane if I can get them out, of course.
- Reduce cost of creatures/spells
- Tap a creature you control: costs
- Flash (Vedalken Orrery, Winding Canyons, Leyline of Anticipation), so can respond better
