Artifact

Hi, Banding is an amazing ability and I would highly recommend utilizing it. Baton of Morale is awesome, but do not overlook Defensive Formation which grants you the benefits of a Banded Block, without technically using the Banding mechanic.

One card in my Banding deck that's always carried its weight is Commander Eesha - the protection from creatures (and any sort of indestructibility/protection) in a band is unbelievably powerful, as you can point any damage dealt to the band solely at her and effectively negate it when both attacking and blocking. And if you want to go all-in in banding birds, you could also run Baton of Morale, Formation, and/or Cooperation.

Hey, nice version. I've never seen Baton of Morale in a game of Commander.

Garruk's Uprising and Quartzwood Crasher is a really good Dino interaction. Uprising can do a lot for three mana and Crasher is one of the better Dinos. Because you have Glade, Vista, Stomping then Skyshroud Claim is an upgrade for land ramp spell.

Exotic Orchard, Battlefield Forge, Spectator Seating are some land upgrades to consider.


Some upgrades to consider:

Good luck with your deck.

Flagellum on Mono-Black Destroy

Horobi, Death's Wail is the best commander if you want to destroy things. Would require a complete retooling of your deck to fit in things like Baton of Morale or Touch of Darkness. Also, Equipments destroy any creature they attempt to equip as they target. But you could make it really cheap!

If you need an example here's:


Horobi's Death Chimes

I've had a bigass list of cards in Cockatrice for a while that I'm dwindling to a deck. Yours has given me a lot of inspiration!

Can I ask why no Reliquary Tower, Thought Vessel, et cetera?

Do you find having only a few counters is worth it?

Have you thought about Banding at all? Even if just throwing in Fortified Area. Helm of Chatzuk, Baton of Morale, Cooperation are other considerations.

Few other cards I've thought about including: High Ground, Primal Rage, Bow of Nylea, Steely Resolve, Spidersilk Armor (iffy on this one, but just in case?), Noetic Scales, Sterling Grove, As Foretold, Aura Shards, Urza's Incubator, Herald's Horn, Skeleton Key.

Diplomatic Immunity over Glint?

You have a very low avg. CMC, but I find it hard not to include Chromatic Lantern in any multicolored deck. Do you do well without much mana rock ramp?

Do you think changelings are wolfy enough? Chameleon Colossus and maybe Changeling Titan. Baton of Morale would simulate pack tactics. Soul Foundry is a favorite of mine with decks like this and it gets extra synergy with your token doublers. Knighthood doesn't sound wolfy but some wolves are fast man (and its hilarious with your deathtouch cards).

I would consider cutting Sound the Call, Memorial to Unity, Coat of Arms (unless you never play against other tribal decks) and Lone Wolf. Aspect of Wolf has always under-performed for me.

Have you looked for a different commander? If you could find a Naya boss you could throw in Alpha Brawl and bring the wolf to them.

cdkime If you're looking to splash banding outside white (and outside pauper), I cannot say enough about the spiciness of Baton of Morale. Give as many creatures banding as you can afford at instant speed!

Alkadron Thanks! Banding is a weird and misunderstood ability, but I think it works here, where (ideally) all the creatures will have vigilance. More non-pauper EDH token decks could run janky stuff like Baton of Morale to block more efficiently, or at the very least just so everyone else has to look up what banding does hahaha
