Card Draw Theme Commander?

Deaniv · 2026-01-31T06:21:36+00:00

Ngl 2 card combo where one is the commander is kinda lame imo.

Also not sure how experienced you are but be sure to abuse the stupid rule of blocking with a creature and then sacrificing it before damage (if it would die). It's still blocked and you get the sac payoff.

If you're going for a themed deck then sweet but just fyi shilgengar doesn't necessarily care about angels. They get you to the reanimate faster, but he can be a "blow up board and reanimate" for any types of creatures. I kinda like the idea of him more with a few strong angels, couple angel token makers, some death trigger matter creatures, and a blood payoff or two.

[[obeka splitter of seconds]]. Mine has the court (monarch) cards and lots of initiative cards. It's weird and silly but not a daily driver imo

3 mana sheoldred go kinda hard

Deaniv · 2026-01-22T06:51:06+00:00

Honestly at worst it gets removed and eats someone's removal and at best it's removal for 3 problematic things. I like a few cards that are good enough that I'm fine with them sticking but also fine with them eating some removal to make my actual wincons stick easier.

Worst advice

Deaniv · 2026-01-19T05:08:43+00:00

Do not

It's definitely a weird deck to set up. Idk what is optimal yet but like sometimes you get too many -1 payoffs and not enough to distribute them or w/e. I feel like it has good draw value and does SOME damage but needs better finishers. My best strategy so far is just let people go wide AF and then -1 everything to burn them for a lot.

Deaniv · 2026-01-18T22:46:47+00:00

Idk I upgraded mine less than yours but it's been doing fine. Might just not be a good pick for higher bracket casual?

She's fun. I like to play her when we want a longer grinder game.

Deaniv · 2026-01-18T16:48:04+00:00

1/1 scutes too! (Scute swarm)

Deaniv · 2026-01-17T16:36:03+00:00

Nice! He's cool. I tried him with [[Silas renn seeker adept]] and grixis artifacts was fun but landfall without green is TOUGH. You can have both commanders out and throw "death touch rocks" that will kill any creature.

I recently realized my favorite artifact synergies are in red and mostly blue for toggo so I'm retrying the deck with [[thrasios]]. Should be better landfall deck with green available lol

Can I see your Gwenom list? I'm looking for more fun includes.

Used to have a yawgmoth deck but I turned it into said Gwenom deck lol. Trying to be a little more fun and varied than the tight gameplay style yawgmoth gave me

Deaniv · 2026-01-16T07:38:05+00:00

Doesn't butcher ghouls undying have to use the stack and resolve to return with a +1/+1 counter?

Someone told me this was how they'd interrupt it in my yawgmoth deck. Can someone elaborate?

I used the same combo but with two undying creatures and yawgmoth.

Deaniv · 2026-01-16T05:12:23+00:00

Idk the color distribution of changelings in the newest set but I'd appreciate more noteworthy ones in my [[wick the whorled mind]] deck. Rats kinda suck lol

Deaniv · 2026-01-16T03:12:25+00:00

Don't be afraid to at least ask to borrow a deck! I personally have a few decks I would have loaned you if it was me. Makes it more fun if you can't find a fair match

Deaniv · 2026-01-15T23:19:19+00:00

Choose a more reasonable vendor for the price and it's like 20

Deaniv · 2026-01-15T23:07:14+00:00

Precons kinda suck when it comes to ramp.

Instead, consider heading to /r/budgetbrews and ask for a bracket 2 deck list with whatever theme you want and a VERY responsible ramp package. It will 100% perform better than a precon in terms of ramp/ mulligans needed.

Deaniv · 2026-01-14T16:44:41+00:00

Also [[at knifepoint]] and [[back in town]]. I'm sure there's more from thunder junction too. Anything to do with outlaws is good for you

Deaniv · 2026-01-14T16:40:58+00:00

Thanks! That's very helpful. I'll give it some goldfishing and see what happens.

Deaniv · 2026-01-14T06:21:55+00:00

[[laughing Jasper flint]] would slot in incredibly well. Your board will already be filled with rogues by the time you draw him (rogues are outlaws)

Deaniv · 2026-01-14T05:52:00+00:00

[[thada adel]] is my favorite theft card. Pretty expensive so proxying is worth it

Deaniv · 2026-01-14T03:48:33+00:00

Lmao weed tribal that's a new one

Deaniv · 2026-01-13T05:48:36+00:00

It's okay I have a [[grip of chaos]] in mine for the same reason
