Ghalta becomes cheaper with a large army or with a large creature, and it’s also in green (the color known for the biggest and cuddliest creatures).
These are good on their own, and make for some nearly unsolvable dilemmas when backed up by Ghalta.Ĭost reduction can be dangerous, and Ghalta certainly promises a fair bit on that front: a 2-mana 12/12 with trample is no joke, let it be known. You can also keep an eye out for cards like Raise the Alarm that generate more than one creature, for creatures like Jadelight Ranger that can have more power than printed on the card, and for creatures like Vinelasher Kudzu which grow over time. Ghalta requires you to commit quite a lot of cards and perhaps a lot of mana to the table before you get there, but that can be okay – it just implies a different style of deck construction, in which Ghalta is a finisher or an “oh man, what next?” sort of card which takes advantage of their defenses being exhausted. Just for reference, that’s what you get with the legendary combo of Phyrexian Dreadnought plus Stifle. Many players, on reading a text box like Ghalta’s, will leap immediately to thinking about the elusive promise of a 12/12 trample for two mana.
