This is my take on a Feather, the Redeemed deck. As with most Feather decks, as well as Zada, Hedron Grinder decks, the key card for this deck setting up is the humble cantrip; Expedite for example. Drawing many cards by casting the same spell for 1 mana each turn to generate value is a powerful eng...

Your assessment of the arcbond/martyrdom is correct. It's killed the table for about 75% of my wins. The martyrdom can be replaced by Zada +lifelink, but those two are both accessible off of sunforger, so the combo can be assembled with relative ease. The untap effects basically just pay for themsel...

I read through the MTGS thread, and while arcbond was mentioned, that didn't also discuss the interaction with martyrdom or the less recurrable Gideon's sacrifice . This is the most common winning method in my Feather build, while each piece individually can be a board wipe or perminant fog independ...

Well then. My excitement got the better of me.

On the topic of making tokens: hate mirage was just revealed. The key phrase is "up to" here.

This set is great.

We should be able to populate any token by sequencing the order of targets from the Zada trigger. My largest hesitancy is that Belligerence is useless without twinflame/heat shimmer. I do really like that the tokens stay after the turn. It's worth testing. I have been pleasantly surprised by the num...

So...I just realized that Ghired's Belligerence can turn all our 1/1 tokens into copies of young pyromancer, Krenko, mob boss, or just mogg war marshal.

This should significantly increase the maximum possible damage output, especially if it's Krenko. I'm not sure if it's worth it.

[Mention]lyonhaert[/mention], [mention]dementedkirby[/mention] greetings. I will actually be more active here, as it is more mobile friendly. I agree with both of you, but I am more interested in dockside extortionist as ritual effect. It seems situational, but should give 1 mana in most games and m...

Mindcrank makes far too much sense, and needs to be tested.

This is a fairly typical krenko deck. Of my three mono-red decks, it is the one that I am most accepting of combo wins; Zada is noninfinite storm, Trobran is direct burn. Without combos, it makes a bunch of goblins and makes those goblins fairly large. Commander 1x krenko, mob boss Krenko Support 1x...

The sacrifice outlets are primarily to reuse Geth. Infernal Tribute gives a sacrifice outlet for artifacts and card advantage. Mind slash is more often a method to remove answers proactively and clear the way for a win condition. Sorcery speed hurts, but the repeatable effect can lock down the game....

I do have a seasoned pyromancer for my next round of testing. It should occupy a solid slot that combines draw with tokens, but is less effecient for either alone. My particular build is not budget, but does make effort to stay on theme. Fists of Flame alone has been lethal in games so far (testing ...

Any thoughts on cross linking the Nexus thread and MTGS thread so that players can reference multiple conversations? While likely convenient, I'm unsure on whether that would be acceptable for either platform, due to prospective solicitation concerns.

Geth is one of my two oldest decks, and among the two is the less common commander. Geth vs Kemba was a pair of decks built to play against each other for a while. When I first started playing commander in 2009, I build a monoblack removal/discard heavy deck with Nezumi Graverobber // Nighteyes the ...

This is posted for record keeping but feel free to comment. The original intention of this deck was to phase out the commander if it was attacked. This was highly inconsistent and required mycosynth lattice and march of the machines , which has other side effects. Commander 1x Teferi, temporal archm...

Unesh Criosphinx Sovereign is a sphinx tribal deck which in intended to win via combat damage. Via cost reduction, the deck spams sphinxes or clones of sphinxes to build the battlefield and 'fact or fiction' through it's entire deck.

This is posted for record keeping but feel free to comment. This was one of a pair of decks with Geth, Lord of the Vault when I was first getting into EDH.
