I've been building a bunch of control heavy decks lately and saw Wulfgur and kinda went: I love this guy. Double up on attacks in a colour-set I haven't built yet seemed like fun. I had been contemplating Xenagod but I already have a lot of strong decks so went for something a bit more middle-ground...

Ahh nice - yeah I look at Mimeo is the big oozey mess that makes bombs even bigger and the reanimation was the backup effect, cool thing with this commander is it can go so many ways. For dorks you could always run the higher CMC / multicolour ones, such as - Birds of Paradise - Bloom Tender - Chann...

I built Mimeo recently as got one of those secret lair versions and it's been a real blast to play. Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider is bonkers in the deck as he has evasion, haste and doubles his own size so can end up huge. Great part is turning normie bombs into mega bombs thanks to commander damage a...

I have an Arahbo deck that has Kaheera as the companion - whilst the mechanic is unfortunately a bit weak it does means I can run less creatures (because there's always a cat available) and replace them with other cards such as ramp, "buff" (equipment, rancor and other recursive effects) a...

Thanks for putting this together! I'm working on a non-optimal pile for Haldanko with whatever is in my binder and it looks like potential for fun games so far. What are your thoughts on Hadana's Climb ? Seems like it would be easy to trigger (given Pako gets counters easily) and can add the backup ...

Earthcraft seems like it could be a solid tapper too, turns Kala into a hastey mana dork

I played Brudi quite a bit and found the table got smart and tended to remove him quite quickly. Padeem, Consul of Innovation and Lightning Greaves were both great protection. Also would run ~12 rocks and cut my lands back to make up for it as a 6 cmc commander is very expensive, and was best brough...

Ahh I get you, I can totally appreciate wanting to have diff play styles for different decks :). As for lands, have you tried Inkmoth Nexus / Kessig Wolf Run ? I have that with Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth and Cabal Coffers . Only prob is it can get a bit linear when you assemble and put it all on the b...

Strands of Night seems like a hidden gem for Windgrace, especially since you have both the discard and recursion engine built into him. Out of curiosity any reason you don't run Ob Nixililis, the Fallen? He can be a fun alt wincon with Scapeshift.

I used to play Marchesa but pulled apart the deck because it was too oppressive, and I'd more often than not end up taking time in everyone's turns as when they moved to end step I'd trigger off Marchie's ability with a bunch of sacs for value. Amazing cards were Arcbound Ravager and Rakdos Cackler ...

I love it! Thank you for the detailed response :) You're totally right here, Volrath was picked for his fun ability, sweet colours and a whole boatload of available great cards. I've put together a diff deck in this theme (this is like my.. 4th or 5th go now? I'll get it right someday). The general ...

Honestly you're totally right and have put into words how I've been feeling about the deck, so thank you! I picked him because he seemed lulzy and fun, but then ended up building stuff around him that was more about trying to fetch up Necrotize Ooze // Experiment Kraj to play with my Rube Goldberg m...

Deck changes - I found there were times I had Necrotic Ooze and combo pieces in my hand and wanted some in the yard, so I tried to give me some cards that would help with that. Added more tutors too. - illusionist's bracers - pemmin's aura - fathom mage - quicksilver elemental - gilder bairn - painf...

Blade of Selves in Yarok seems like it'd be nuts. Swing Gonti in a 4-player game and you get 4 triggers!!

Put a huge update in the initial comment, was largely inspired by viewtopic.php?f=24&t=916

Edit: Removed this as I changed the deck yet again haha. I have updated the original post, seems like it's the common thing to do in the forums (mostly lurked, new poster).

Hey, thanks for the quick reply. You're totally right they are significantly better, I should've mentioned we play mostly Kingdoms-variant EDH in our meta as it makes for shorter games. It also very much encourages politics and I took a political-spin with this deck. It's why I included Pir's Whim a...

I've been brewing up Volrath. I tried Dark Kraj and got it wrong, then tried Sultai good stuff.. Now I'm back to Dark Kraj! It seems fun as, I took a Kraj deck and added in some black but it still doesn't 'feel right'. I wanted to include some more graveyard populating and some fun cards like Mirror...

Edit: Moved this to viewtopic.php?f=35&t=16546&p=35733#p35733 as this is an old thread

Oh snap, Hex Parasite is a nice choice. Would be a funny answer to counters players too. What are your thoughts on Temporal Extortion ? Could be a fun lulzy move to cast it, hold priority and then counter it for a huge boost, or even just let it out there and see if you get another turn / swing cycle.

Oh boy, Volcano hellion could be.. explosive with Greven.

True, being much more explosive is def a better option I hadn't considered. I tend to play a lot of Kingdoms variant rather than traditional 4-player so can get away with not as optimised turns. Either way this has given me heaps to consider for me deck so thanks! I'm going to see what I can put in ...

Great primer! Thank you :) I found K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth to be a beast in this, also Chainer, Dementia Master is great as you can recur creatures for sac with a life ping, and it also also doubles as graveyard hate (which also seems to lack in most primers I see, I'm not sure why). Would Sparkspit...
