Presence of Gond, Paradise Mantle, a Vehicle or Predatory Urge would let you tap at will

A friend of mine has a One Punch Man deck with Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest at the helm, but I love seeing a mono-green version! This is more up my alley ahaha.

Have you considered Predatory Urge ? I use fight cards in stompy creature decks that have troubles with fliers, and having the fight mechanic on a stick is handy.

Great deck! Looks like a bunch of fun.

Predatory Urge: enchant Jared and quadruple his power/toughness in a single tap if you are the monarch

Look for enchantments that allow you to tap without attacking? Predatory Urge, there's a green one that taps to summon an elf. Tradewind Rider can tap creatures the turn they are played.

Week of 09082020 Combo

Ok so I'm actually really proud of this combo and don't want to forget it so I'm gonna put it in now, like half a week earlier than usual. Maybe I'll even do a bonus one!

Evra, Halcyon Witness + Predatory Urge + Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose or anything with his first line of text.

The way the combo works is first you activate Evra's first ability. I know when I first saw here I thought it just made your life total equal to her power, but it actually exchanges it, so this makes your life equal to her power and her power equal to your life (yes, risky, you die to Lava Axe). Then you enchant her with any fight aura or equip her with any fight equipment (Predatory Urge is the first one I thought of). Now, you have a 20/4 or 40/4 with a fight ability ... and lifelink. This means she now has ": kill target creature, you gain 40 or 20 life." Which, depending on what you want to do in that game, might be enough ... but it's never enough.

Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose comes down.

Now Evra has : Kill target creature. You gain 20/40 life, each opponent loses that much.

Fun combo! Please let me know if there is a fight or "deal damage equal to power" equipment, that would be a really fun EDH deck to build.

Hey again!

Predatory Urge looks good, it's not a card I have but definitely worth a try. Slightly harder to remove than the Ulvenwald Tracker too, which is nice. Also if it's on Rhonas then you're less likely to get 2-for-1'd by Rhonas being removed.

You're correct that I swapped out Unnatural Aggression for Band Together . It's not necessarily a great swap but as you mentioned, it's a one-sided effect and lets you gang up if you're trying to remove something big. That being said, Rhonas is so cheap to cast that I generally only fight with my commander so one-sided effects aren't such a big deal in my experience, although you might have a different experience! Let me know :)

Triangle of War seems OK as well. I take your point about it being on the board rather than in your hand but ultimately it's just another 3-mana "fight" spell unless you plan to re-cast it after a Regrowth or something, but you could do that with any of the fight spells really. Seems fine if you need another fight spell, but otherwise I don't see a huge advantage for it.

That comment about flying makes sense, I'm not used to having such nice creature removal as green!

For board wipes, I was thinking of including something like Predatory Urge in place of one of the fight instants/sorceries. It's similar to Ulvenwald Tracker , making the fight into a per turn ability means I can save cards in my hand and be in a better position after a wipe. But with the amount of card draw in the deck, it might not be necessary/good to save too many cards

I also was wondering if Unnatural Aggression was meant to be replaced by Band Together . It's what the changelog implies, but I wanted to check.

Does it often come up that you fight using someone other than the commander where one-sided fighting cards would be better, like Aggressive Instinct or Clear Shot . Having lower cost cards as well as instants vs sorceries is better, but only if there's no advantage to one-side fighting. Commander being indestructible helps a ton, but I wanted to know if you ran into scenarios where having one-sided would have been better.

Only other card I was gonna suggest/ask you about is Triangle of War , this deck has a lot of draw, which is very nice, so being able to have one of your fight cards on the table instead of in your hand seems useful.
