The best thing I've got for mimic vat is perilous myr as a three mana shock on a stick. please read your cards. this does not work. I am not going to tell you why because its better if you see it yourself. on a side note, this problem relates to one of the reasons I really dont like the "dies" terminology. | ||

Tokens hit the graveyard all the same...unless I am missing something else. Edit: Don't bring up Mimic Vat's wording, that is never an issue in this particular case. | ||

Oh, sorry, didn't see you were talking about something more than just Mimic Vat + Perilous Myr. Yeah, anyhow, If the token dies it triggers, and it will die as a statebased effect immediately after being put into play by the Vat. | ||

Also, I don't disagree with the inefficiency of 3 mana Shocks on a stick, but the deck needs cover. Assuming you want to hit this on the curve on the play, you are investing at least 5 cards of your first 3 turns, you need something else to make removal not a blow out. | ||

I am not going to tell you why because its better if you see it yourself. on a side note, this problem relates to one of the reasons I really dont like the "dies" terminology. I've read both cards. I'm pretty sure a token can die. The exiling part of mimic vat is not relevant if the token dies, no? Edit: just to be clear. When a token dies, it enters the graveyard then immediately becomes exiled. It still "dies." | ||
