As Kindred Discovery enters the battlefield, choose a creature type.

Love this deck. Definitely a +1 from me. I love the idea and the uniqueness of it.

It seems like the stars of the show are the Nephilem. That being said, I'd recommend more creature tutors that can out them into play like Tooth and Nail, Green Sun's Zenith,Chord of Calling, Eldritch Evolution, Neoform, and Wild Pair.

I'd also add more card draw like Beast Whisperer, Kindred Discovery, Vanquisher's Banner, Ohran Frostfang, and Coastal Piracy.

Heck maybe even throw in cards like Kindred Charge and Kindred Summons.

All the kindred cards as well as the banner will help you multiply those Myr as well as gain value off of them before you can land a couple Nephilem!

Kindred Dominance would be perfect for this deck. Kodama's Reach is another ramp spell you need. Door of Destinies would boost your Avatars. Kindred Discovery should also be an addition.

Hope some of these help!

Have you considered Cathars' Crusade? It's really ridiculous for token decks. And that's even less ridiculous than Kindred Discovery ;) I'd also recommend Opposition as a good method of lockdown, and an additional way to profit off of your spirits.

Your list has decent ramp, but Fellwar Stone and Arcane Signet might be good additional options. I like where you're going with the million pump effects, but you could cut a few of them and open up some other options for victory IMO.

Thanks for the feedback.

I do know about Kindred Discovery and it was in the list originally but it would only win with an Impact Tremors effect in play, otherwise you just deck yourself. So Instead of that I though running Sage of the Falls would be better, because it lets me me loop by discarding an Eldrazi titan or choose to stop at any time as it has a “may” trigger.

I do like the other cards, definitely the obelisk and coat of arms!

Thanks :)

Kindred Discovery goes infinite with your commander. Also, maybe consider Warstorm Surge, Coat of Arms, and Obelisk of Urd to close out games faster with your insects. Cool deck overall +1!

beckettA- Thank you, I think I would take out Coastal Piracy because Kindred Discovery is so much better and would allow for even more card draw. Definitely going in.

ShreddedByCrows on Surrakar tribal challenge

2 weeks ago

Cool concept, even if it's pretty hard to match. A bit of an easy take on your theme, but why don't you play some Shapeshifters as a way to have more Surrakar? Tribal cards also could help.

As Surrakars' living places are mostly wild forests and underground rivers, there's a lot to do with that without having to back up only on the Zendikar's expansions.

1.) River cards:

• River of Tears not the best land you could find, but fits in there

• Underground River certainly an essential

• Bad River cheap fetchland fitting the theme

• Rushing River great removal, really underplayed, fits the theme / you can try something revolving around self land destruction if you decide to give it a try (Crop Rotation, Crucible of Worlds, Wasteland, etc.)

• River Kelpie interesting creature, which design feels otherworldly and weird, according to the Surrakars /n needs a graveyard gameplan to be effective, and that will seem fine (obvious synergy is [card:Cauldron of Souls] and it's a playable card in there) / pretty good interactions with Yarok / card draw

• Carpet of Flowers staple in lots of decks for mana production, depends on your playgroup though

• Dire Undercurrents excellent synergies with Yarok, enabling your creatures without etb-abilities to be more effective / card draw, card advantage

• Undermine weird counterspell, not really that good, not bad either / illustration matches with the theme

2.) Cave cards:

• Cavern of Souls choose Surrakar and it becomes Surrakars' caves! / expensive though

• Rhystic Cave fun land with flavour

• Cave of Temptation

• Gemstone Caverns not sure if it fits the theme

• Cryptic Caves card draw / works just fine with [card:Crucible of Worlds] if you go for it

• Waterveil Cavern nice flavour / bad card but who minds?

• Cavern Harpy really good interactions with Yarok, can be used for some etb-abilities abuse/combo

• Ice Cave just a funny card I wanted to give a shot there, not sure if it's something worth

3.) Cloning your Surrakars cards:

• Mirror of the Forebears not the most flavourful one, but gives you a cheap way to get more Surrakars so it deserves being at least mentioned

• Fated Infatuation same comment as for the Mirror, with the advantage of the more abstract card name / waterpoint in the illustration

• Mimic Vat classic card, not the most flavourful

• Wall of Stolen Identity more of a Ravnica-themed card, but worth mentioning

• Phantasmal Image if you can alter a bit the card's image, it could be some Surrakar there / otherwise, it's a good card, and the illustration is strange enough to not injure your theme-deck-style imo

• Metamorphic Alteration also a nice one

• Mirror Image not as good as the others, still a wildish illustration style according well with Surrakars

• Unstable Shapeshifter funny card, a quality+ illustration

• Bramble Sovereign Surrakars also living in the Guum Wilds/Tangled Vale, this one feels really good / has some interactions with Yarok

• Rite of Replication Zendikar-themed, water-themed, excellent card, good interactions with Yarok

• Supplant Form let's just assume for a while that this is Surrakar's magic lel

• Dual Nature yeh it is slow, but it is strong / interactions with Yarok

4.) Tribal outlet:

• Metallic Mimic one more Surrakar buffing your Surrakars, despite lacking a Surrakar-ish illustration

• Herald's Horn will also work with Shapeshifter if you add some

• Urza's Incubator ^

• Vanquisher's Banner I don't particularly like it, but still worth mentioning

• Brass Herald good interaction with Yarok

• Kindred Discovery good interaction with Yarok

• Patriarch's Bidding personal favourite, it's a lot more fun than Mortal Combat you're running, and fits better with your themes / interacts with Yarok

• Riptide Shapeshifter weird card, costs a lot of mana, good effect even if you could just run Natural Order instead

5.) Yarok outlet

• Panharmonicon I know your strategy is different, but I always find it more interesting when your commander actually is useful

• Conjurer's Closet ^

• Yarok's Fenlurker flavourful, fine card

• Bala Ged Scorpion flavourful, ok/bad card

• Bojuka Bog flavourful, fine card

• Eternal Witness

• Roil Elemental

6.) Other cards

• Underground Sea

• Unclaimed Territory

• Copy Artifact

• Sculpting Steel

• Memory Plunder for the illustration

• Peer Pressure

• Imagecrafter

• Trickery Charm

• Standardize

• Unnatural Selection

• Arcane Adaptation

• Sunder

• Tangle Wire

• Abominable Treefolk

• Beast Within

I hope you'll find something helpful amongst those suggestions, keep on brewing and thanks for sharing it!

Doesn't Nadir Kraken go infinite with Ashnod's Altar + Mentor of the Meek or Ashnod's Altar + Kindred Discovery?

If it does then I think the best Cmdr is Ephara, God of the Polis
