Much Abrew: Enigmatic Overlords (Pioneer)


Hello everyone, and welcome to another edition of Much Abrew About Nothing! The mythic Overlords are some of the most exciting cards from Duskmourn, but are they good enough to shake up Pioneer with the help of Enigmatic Incarnation? That's what we are going to find out today! Cards like Overlord of the Hauntwoods, Overlord of the Boilerbilges, and Overlord of the Mistmoors almost seem like they were designed specifically to work with Enigmatic Incarnation. They are high-mana-value enchantments that we can play on the cheap thanks to impending and then turn into a massive creature with Enigmatic Incarnation. But they are also creatures, so we can tutor them out with Enigmatic Incarnation. In our dream world, we can play Overlord of the Hauntwoods on Turn 3 into Enigmatic Incarnation on Turn 4. On our end step, we can turn Overlord of the Hauntwoods into an Overlord of the Boilerbilges to deal some damage. On the next turn, we can turn Overlord of the Boilerbilges into an Overlord of the Mistmoors to make a bunch of evasive tokens to close out the game! How good are the Duskmourn Overlords with Enigmatic Incarnation in Pioneer? Let's get to the video and find out!
