# Zoraline, Cosmos Caller (friend's deck)
- Category: Commander deck — the friend's Commander, built on the Bloomburrow pulls he co-bought.
- Commander: Zoraline, Cosmos Caller {1}{W}{B} — bat tribal + lifegain + {W}{B}{2-life} reanimate (MV ≤ 3)
- Card export: [blb-zoraline-bats.csv](blb-zoraline-bats.csv). Guide (Spanish): [guide_blb-zoraline-bats.html](guide_blb-zoraline-bats.html).
- Owner: the friend, paired with [Rats U/B](../../standard/blb-rats-ub/README.md). These cards leave the collection, so his two decks have priority: together they never use more copies than the pulls hold, and the other decks were adjusted around them. Sol Ring is his own copy.
- Composition: 1 commander, 65 other nonland cards, 34 lands (6 nonbasic, 14 Plains, 14 Swamps); 12 bats counting Zoraline. No sideboard.
- Sources: 64 BLB cards (expensive ones included, as agreed). 8 cards from other sets, only ones the friend actually got: Sol Ring (his own), Momo, Playful Pet, Misty Palms Oasis (TLA); Old Thrush, Giant's Boulder (HOB); Night Nurse, Healer of Heroes, Fisk Tower (MSH); Neglected Manor (DSK). No Foundations cards besides the Plains.

## History
- Beta build: the box gave exactly 74 unique WB-legal cards, so the 99 was forced (every WB pull + 26 basics).
- Upgrade 1 (mana): seven off-tribe or 5-mana fillers made room for Sol Ring, Arcane Signet, Talisman of Hierarchy, Fellwar Stone and Land Tax from the Silverquill Influence precon, plus one Plains and one Swamp (32 lands).
- Friend merge: this list and the budget Zoraline became one deck for the friend; the budget folder and the Bats W/B test deck were retired.
  - Out, Silverquill Influence cards (not BLB, pending approval): Land Tax, Arcane Signet, Fellwar Stone, Talisman of Hierarchy. In: Hot Dog Cart, Giant's Boulder, Fisk Tower, Misty Palms Oasis (34 lands).
  - Out, cards his Rats deck uses every copy of: Daggerfang Duo, Persistent Marshstalker, Psychic Whorl, Stargaze. In: Momo, Friendly Flier, Wolfbat, Cloak and Dagger, Kingpin's Enforcers.
  - Out, off-tribe fillers whose last copies other BLB decks use: Nettle Guard, Thistledown Players, Brave-Kin Duo, Mouse Trapper, Flowerfoot Swordmaster, Agate-Blade Assassin, Ravine Raider, Lupinflower Village, Hidden Grotto. In: Unflinching Hortimancer, Screeching Soulbreaker, Momo, Playful Pet, Night Nurse, The Kingpin of Crime, Osseous Sticktwister, Dreaded Bat-Cloud, Neglected Manor, Escape Tunnel. Each swap adds lifegain, flying or a W/B land.
  - Kept for him: Dawn's Truce and Starfall Invocation (Helga took replacements).
- Animal swap: the seven non-animal creatures from other sets went out for animals with spare copies (no FDN). The Kingpin of Crime → Raven Eagle, Screeching Soulbreaker → Glidedive Duo, Unflinching Hortimancer → Rabaroo Troop, Night Nurse → Old Thrush, Osseous Sticktwister → Curious Farm Animals, Cloak and Dagger → Hei Bai, Spirit of Balance, Kingpin's Enforcers → Buzzard-Wasp Colony. The cuts go back to the pulls (no sideboard).
- Owned-cards pass: only the non-BLB cards the friend got stay. Out: Momo, Friendly Flier, Wolfbat, Dreaded Bat-Cloud, Raven Eagle, Rabaroo Troop, Curious Farm Animals, Hei Bai, Buzzard-Wasp Colony, Hot Dog Cart. In: Night Nurse, Well-Worn Spatula, plus the last spare BLB pulls (Jolly Gerbils, Hop to It) and five BLB creatures moved from Diego's Standard decks: Agate-Blade Assassin and Ravine Raider (Lizards B/R), Nettle Guard and Brave-Kin Duo (Mice R/W), Intrepid Rabbit (Rabbits G/W). Those decks refilled from their own sideboards.
- BLB-fit pass: Escape Tunnel → Lupinflower Village (sacrifice to find a Bat, Bird, Mouse or Rabbit), Well-Worn Spatula → Thornplate Intimidator (3-life drain or a sacrifice/discard). Both come from the pulls even where other decks list them.

## Optional upgrades (ask first)
From the Silverquill Influence precon, not BLB: Land Tax ($16.95), Arcane Signet ($0.96), Fellwar Stone ($0.94), Talisman of Hierarchy ($0.47). Natural cuts: Giant's Boulder and Hot Dog Cart for the rocks, one basic for Land Tax.
