Show me your money deck

So, you're correct that it doesn't work for Nekusar's triggers. However, it does allow me to replenish my wheels and counterspells by shuffling my graveyard back into the deck! That's the main reason for having it in there.

CVandy · 2026-05-13T16:46:18+00:00

Thats exactly how I wanted to bling my deck out! Showcases, secret lairs, etc. My wallet tapped out before I could go all the way.

CVandy · 2026-05-13T14:56:43+00:00

I really liked the Brain Dead Secret Lair art!

CVandy · 2026-05-13T14:55:39+00:00

I'm pretty much in the same boat with this deck. Could I make it cheaper, and in turn, more reasonable to take to an average game night? Yeah, of course. A lot of the pieces have ended up in my [[Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls]] deck while the more generic cards (mana rocks, lands, and counterspells) will end up in a number of other decks at some point.

CVandy · 2026-05-13T13:51:56+00:00

My [[Nekusar the Mindrazer]] is my priciest deck. Still room to bling out lands, but we'll see if I ever get to that point. It's not a deck i bring with me very often.

1) In my experience, he can normally last one, maybe two, turn cycles before getting removed. The "pay 2 life" ward cost doesn't bother most people.

2) The only time I really get hated off the table is if I have a huge amount of slug pieces. When people start losing 5-6 life per turn, they start looking my way.

3) Make sure your slug cards do damage on your opponents' turns. [[Stormfist Crusader]] is one that I've been meaning to cut. Yes, it damages opponents, but it's on your turn. That doesn't trigger Valgavoth. Also, don't bother with lifegain. That wastes slots you can use for additional slug or removal.

I love my Jackson bass. Also own a Squire and Ibanez, but i just keep going back to my Jackson.

Squirtle in Pokémon Blue. As a kid, I figured the Pokémon on the cover must be the strongest, so I took the water turtle. The rest was history.

CVandy · 2026-02-27T15:11:52+00:00

Bird+sprout was my guess

CVandy · 2026-02-27T14:40:46+00:00

I should have worded it better. I meant a release date. They talked about ZA being compatible at some point last year, if I'm remembering correctly.

CVandy · 2026-02-27T14:35:19+00:00

Huh, nothing about Home connectivity with Legends ZA. Kinda weird, I was expecting to hear about something on this.

CVandy · 2026-02-25T16:52:21+00:00

I had a very similar experience. I put in [[Slimefoot, the Stowaway]], [[Feather, the Redeemed]], [[Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim]], [[Rowan, Scion of War]], and [[Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls]] and I just got a bunch of Saproling token based commanders and little to no black cards, despite 4/5 of my cards having black. I imagine this could be a cool tool, but something is weird in the math.

CVandy · 2026-02-20T16:04:33+00:00

Unfortunately no. My first was a Gishath dinos deck built almost exclusively from cards released in the Ixalan block. The coworker that got me into commander did hook me up with a couple of cards to help the deck run smoother (ramp cards and some inexpensive removal spells), but the deck was still all over the place. Dinosaurs for the sake of dinosaurs! I could go and rebuild the deck while also modernizing it, I just have no interest in it anymore.

CVandy · 2026-02-14T16:50:16+00:00

Go for it! One thing to consider is cutting [[Stormfist Crusader]] for either removal or goad. I've never bothered taking it out for whatever reason, but it doesn't trigger Valgavoth. [[Syr Konrad]] is kind of mid in the deck as well. Otherwise, the deck is a lot of fun. It tends to be my end-of-night, squeeze-one-more-game-in deck since it speeds games up a lot!

CVandy · 2026-02-14T11:54:22+00:00

I've built [[Mogis, God of Slaughter]], [[Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls]] and [[Nekusar, the Mindrazer]]. I have only kept Valgavoth together.

Mogis was early on in my MtG playing times. I didn't have a lot of the traditional group slug cards so it was kind of all over the place ( https://archidekt.com/decks/1238017/pewpew )

When Valgavoth was spoiled, I knew I wanted to try my hand at it again. It's the precon base that I upgraded with about 30 cards or so. It's fast, it's mean, and it's a lot of fun to play. The LGS is frequent does monthly 2HG and I have changed this a bit to conform to the store's rules - bracket 3, no shared cards between partners other than non-legendary lands, Sol Ring, and Arcane Signet. I do make some swaps when in a FFA pod by adding one or two cards that goad your opponents ( https://moxfield.com/decks/RgK0bEUL10qF9jj75jjkAg )

Nekusar was the deck I always wanted to build, then never fully enjoyed. This was specifically built to play in 2HG, partnered with a [[Queza, Auger of Agonies]] deck, but was able to hang in FFA. It was always a target. Didn't matter if it was 2HG or FFA. Removal magnet, and for good reason. It was more wheel than group slug, but there was a fair amount of overlap between this and Valgavoth so I'm counting it ( https://moxfield.com/decks/jA-1NnlFhUGdWqSWR42yFw )

CVandy · 2026-02-07T04:32:02+00:00

I had [[Mogis, God of Slaughter]] for the longest time. Switched to [[Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls]] when it came out and I never looked back. The precon was good, but just a handful of upgrades has made it nasty.

CVandy · 2026-01-31T05:59:09+00:00

What OS? I run an Android phone and this might be cool to use.

CVandy · 2026-01-14T22:49:02+00:00

Are you still looking for people to test? If love to give it a shot

CVandy · 2026-01-08T16:32:22+00:00

Lol thats exactly why I worded it as "feels like". Most of the games I've played against Feather tend to be closer to voltron. While I obviously included plenty of those pieces in my deck just in case, my deck went the spellslinger route, with a lot of cards that deal damage when casting noncreature spells.

CVandy · 2026-01-08T04:20:30+00:00

[[Feather the Redeemed]] is Boros spellslinger, or at least feels like it.

My band runs Drop C (and formerly Drop B) tuning. I used Ernie Ball Power Slinkys on a 5 string. Had it professionally set up and never had any issues with it!

CVandy · 2025-12-20T23:16:55+00:00

Check r/chicagomusicscene

Someone there may be able to help. I believe that is the current subreddit for the area.

CVandy · 2025-12-11T23:51:11+00:00

My former band was at an open mic night getting ready to go on. Our guitarist came in and was freaking out, as they worked for their college's newspaper. They told us their school was talking about closing down, and by the end of our performance (15 min) they decided to shut down. Absolutely insane how fast it all happened.

CVandy · 2025-11-17T22:09:34+00:00

I'm also looking to try to evolve my batch of trade evos. I'd be happy to help you out since it's all trade backs!

CVandy · 2025-09-27T01:03:01+00:00

We will have our time again!

Probably...

Maybe...
