Kaalia's Bounce House
11 months ago
I use to run a land destruction version of Kaalia years ago. Since then she’s move to faster kills by bleeding the opposition. Ravages of War is another mass land d card but will cost you $.
I’m surprised you’re not running Dragon Mage as a wonder wheel draw effect. Keen Duelist helps kill your opponents due to your higher cmc while offering increased draw.
Dragon Tempest is a staple for Kaalia and abused by incorporating Utvara Hellkite and Ancient Gold Dragon, amplified with running Terror of the Peaks. I don’t run a ton of dragons so I chose to keep out Utvara as it’s more situational in my deck.
You might find use in Mudslide and Circle of Flame. I run Mudslide and Moat.
Talismans > Signets, try hitting about 10-11 mana rocks. In Archenemy games where you’re the threat, Kaalia is just the decoy for removal while you more easily hard cast your threats. Quicksilver Amulet and Sneak Attack are good avenues around losing Kaalia as well, but have you considered Sundial of the Infinite which gets rid of sneak attacks drawback and opens combat combos and infinite turns to your arsenal? Maybe too much of you want to keep casual.
The Sanguine Bond and Exquisite Blood aren’t honestly needed in here. Archfiend of Depravity, Wound Reflection, Sower of Discord, Scourge of the Skyclaves, Gisela, Blade of Goldnight,and Heartless Hidetsugu are functionally better choices to utilize and synergize/combo.

Amazing politics deck - great combos between cards like Circle of Flame and Plague of Vermin. Nice amounts of ramp and draw too, well done on this one.

Some cards I can think of are Comeuppance and Divine Deflection. Other cards like Sarkhan the Masterless, Circle of Flame and Lightmine Field punish attacking.

Here are a few cards that kinda fit what you're asking for:
Mangara, the Diplomat kinda counts?
Ever-Watching Threshold same category as mangara

Based on your description, I have a few recommendations for you: Brutal Hordechief, Aurelia, the Warleader, and Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs all fit in with your commander's theme. Additionally, as mentioned above, Revenge of Ravens and cards like it (Search the Premises and Circle of Flame) can help protect you since you'll be attacking most of the time. I would also decide if you want to focus on all-out combat to capitalize on your commander's ability or on Exalted triggers. As both of these strategies oppose each other, I would focus on one or the other - not both. Finally, I see you want to add more creatures - however, while Winota is an EXTREMELY powerful card, I don't think you have enough creatures and enough of a mix of creatures to reliably hit her triggers. I would pay attention to how often you can get those extra creatures in play.

Thank you for the suggestions KBK7101! You and I are definitely on the same page with the suggestions you made. I have a very extensive Maybe List on my Moxfield version of this deck-list. I also updated with a couple edits.
I'm thinking of swapping out Dreadhorde Arcanist for another 2cmc creature or removal spell. Perhaps that can be a slot for Circle of Flame.

Really excited to build around Isshin. We finally got our Mardu Samurai commander and he does not disappoint! While doing my own research, I found cards like Circle of Flame, Shiny Impetus, Search the Premises, Angelic Exaltation and Cunning Rhetoric all seem pretty decent. Winota, Joiner of Forces seems like a game-changer for this deck, too.
Hesitation is defeat!

Hello Snakeman!
Saw your post on the AyCD thread, but unfortunately I'm no good at suggesting cuts. I did want to comment anyway, though, because I really like Thantis (though I've never built her myself) and I've envisioned her a bit differently than what you have here.
In my opinion, you should run a lot more attack-consequent cards. In other words, cards that punish your opponents for attacking you.
On the top of that list is No Mercy, which some people don't like to use because it causes hurt feels. To me, though, it's a no-brainer. Here's a few others I like:
In addition to that list, I might also suggest Karazikar, the Eye Tyrant and Parasitic Impetus, both of which feed your theme, and Druids' Repository, which is great ramp in any attack heavy deck.
There I go, making things even more complicated, hahaha...
Cheers!
