"What is this nonsense, benjameenbear?" you might be asking. But this deck's inception began with a game where I sat down with my brother and his friend while playing my Yarok ETB list. My list was tuned and had a ton of good synergies that made getting value from the Command Zone easy to do; all I needed was for Yarok to live and I usually would take over a game.
Imagine my surprise when I was OUTVALUED by my brother and his friend, both playing Golos Tribal decks. My brother built his Dinosaur deck (all the Primals and good Dinos) and his friend built Angels (every good one possible).
Watching them fix their mana WHILE getting ahead on mana because of Golos' ETB ability was just too good to keep up with. Especially compared to my sad, no-ETB-or-activated-ability Commander. They buried me with Golos' abilities and just overwhelmed my seemingly meager responses and attempts at trying to be relevant. Even copying a Ravenous Chupacabra's ability twice with Yarok multiple times didn't stem the tide of Stompy death coming at my face.
It was at this moment that I knew that Golos was going to helm my Yarok ETB deck instead.
And he did beautifully. Being able to get ahead on lands from the Command Zone and blink Golos was phenomenal. I NEVER worried about mana or color-fixing and I never had to worry about running out of cards in hand because, oh yeah, Golos could do that too.
Then... he was banned in September 2021. I can totally see why, but I was still sad to see him go. So, Kenrith came up from the 99 to lead this decklist and I've tweaked the main decklist to take advantage of Kenrith's absurd suite of abilities.
This deck is basically a Who's Who of powerful MTG cards. You remember the brokenness of Birthing Pod in Modern or Standard? It's in this deck. You love your ETB value creatures so that you are always doing something? This list has it. Do you like to operate from the graveyard with consistent recursion engines? Read on, comrade, and learn why King Arthur is the Commander of choice for my 5CC Goodstuff deck.
