Not sure if anyone noticed but it looks like the UB: Street Fighter cards finally had their non-UB counterparts revealed. I might try my hand at Chun-Li, Countless Kicks / Zethi, Arcane Blademaster now. Neat. I have been enjoying E. Honda, Sumo Champion , now Baldin, Century Herdmaster as a win-con...

I recently witnessed a Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver deck use Sakashima's Will to turn their entire field into 6 Lord of the Undead . Would that be a viable alternate win-con here? You can win with almost anything but I don't think I would try to rely on a wide board with an anthem creature and a spell. ...

Runadi, Behemoth Caller I have been having a real blast with my Gilanra, Caller of Wirewood & Kodama of the East Tree tree. That deck simply pukes big green creatures onto the board. It is very gratifying for me and very scary for my opponents. Unfortunately, due to summoning sickness, my oppon...

It's been a while since not much has released that affects this build. I did get my hands on a copy of Umezawa's Jitte . It replaces Meekstone which had been underperforming. The most interesting change is swapping out Fell the Mighty for Sculpted Sunburst . I completely missed this card when it cam...

That was a long weekend of gaming. Although I am disappointed because I lost 17 out of 18 games, the 6 I played with this deck were by far some of my better experiences. I played it during the 2 royal rumbles where I expected to meet more powerful decks. Most of the games I could have won if I had m...

Hmmm... Haakon, Stromgald Scourge and a changeling/knight sub-theme is something I hadn't considered. Quick thoughts: Tortured Existence is worth a slot. It is not infinite but with a creature in the bin and one in hand you can make as many zombie tokens as you have black mana. Midnight Reaper is al...

Has card draw been an issue? Does the deck achieve, what you want? I have had 4 maybe 5 games with it since I made the changes. I think it is performing well, but a couple of those games I was trying to be "friendly". I had high impact cards in my opening hand Colossus Hammer and Commande...

My first equipment deck was a Valduk, Keeper of the Flame deck. It was based on a Commander's Quarters budget video. Over time I fell in love and it became decidedly non-budget. The deck gave a many enjoyable games before I couldn't ignore it's flaws any longer. Mono-red always has card advantage an...

Tormod and Kraum is legit for sure too. Really I think for me anything else I did zombie wise would be tormod and something. He's just so strong. Tormod and Silas would be siiick dimir zombies since Silas lets you replay altars from the bin...and make a zombie. Very efficient. Edit: man empty the l...

A higher curve means more reanimation. Run Tormod, the Desecrator & Kraum, Ludevic's Opus for some payoff. Start some Gravespawn Sovereign + Intruder Alarm shenanigans.

Edit: Ooops missed pokken's post.

Thank you all for the suggestions, but this deck is done. I had a few games vs. my buddy and his Anowon, the Ruin Thief pre-con. It did not fare well at all. I won one game, thanks to Tears of Rage . I'll be keeping an eye on that card if I do anymore red token decks. For now I am just going to let ...

I am headed to the Face to Face champion tour in Toronto on the 25th to do some commander events. Since I am not bringing all my decks, I have decided to borrow pieces from a deck I am leaving behind to give a couple of others a bit of push. For this deck I have added Ancient Tomb & Hall of the ...

Passionate Archaeologist might be interesting with Rebound spells and Cascade. Both mechanically exile spells.

Hey I was looking at your mana base, is there a reason you are not running Vault of Whispers, Ancient Den & Goldmire Bridge? In theory you still have enough artifact land to use Artificer's Intuition and Trinket Mage as land tutors but I would shoot for the whole package myself.

Looks like it still works with Ravinia bounce lands.... Here is the oral text for Boros Garrison from Gatherer Boros Garrison enters the battlefield tapped. When Boros Garrison enters the battlefield, return a land you control to its owner's hand. Here the text for Karoo : Karoo enters the battlefie...

I recently discovered that Strict Proctor combos with these lands and it's bananas

Ohhhh. This would also apply to the Ravinca bounce lands too no? IE: Boros Garrison. It's debatable if not needing to return a land to hand is actually an advantage, but it is an interesting thought.

Oh! You know what else is cool? That new Draconic Destiny ! Seems like a slam dunk. Oh yeah for sure! It was already in the first draft! Kinda wish I had more colourless mana sinks because I wouldn't mind using it with Mana Echoes . Also, you may want a bit more draw. Without the enchantress effect...

Enchantress Full disclosure, this deck concept is heavily flawed. That is part of my goal. I want a handicap. I am prone to optimizing my decks as far as my budget will allow, which puts me in the upper tier of my local LGS. This can be problematic when I end up at a table with newer players. I wan...

Teferi, Temporal Pilgrim

Every Teferi card is up for some level of abuse. XD

Oh. That is getting a pre-order. He'll be very happy in Pir & Toothy

Based Theoric 's feedback I have made some changes. First off I have dropped Displacer Kitten . Lots of non-creature spells to cast and trigger it. Most of them I want to cast before combat damage is dealt. If I trigger the kitten and target Toothy, I prevent him from entering combat or from dealing...

I'll keep an eye out for Slip Through Space & Shadow Rift . I'd probably cut Rancor for at least one. Might cut a counter spell for the other. Kenrith's Transformation would be a solid addition. It hurts my soul a little to admit this, because it is a pet card, but Ice-Fang Coatl is the most log...

It has been a while since I have made major edits to this deck. Many of my choices this time are based on "feedback" from a post by pokken . He ran a fantastic thread where you could submit your deck to be roasted. It was obviously all in good fun but in all satire are hints of truth which...

New week, new updates! It is another big one. Finally got my hands on The Great Henge which has been added. Selvala, Heart of the Wilds has taken over for Verdant Mastery . Her card draw ability has always disappointed me. She either enters after I already have my biggest creature, or my opponents g...

I cast Avenging Arrow, opposing player takes a dive and starts clutching his knee.
