Rhox

Creature — Rhino Beast

You may have Rhox assign its combat damage as though it weren't blocked.

: Regenerate Rhox. (The next time this creature would be destroyed this turn, it isn't. Instead tap it, remove all damage from it, and remove it from combat.)

ViscountVonSausageRoll on Punch through

So, I gave this another look since we talked.

I think there's too much theme-consistent stuff vs practical-stuff. For example Mage Slayer is on-theme, but practically speaking it's inferior to Loxodon Warhammer or Blanchwood Armor here. Mage Slayer's primary benefit in a deck is that is deals unblockable damage. Your dudes already are punching through, Mage Slayer is just doubling their power here.

Which could be fine, but Lone Wolf and Pride of Lions have a power of 2 and 4. That's not enough to win the game rapidly anymore.

Blanchwood Armor would fucking destroy here (even more so if you tossed out Talisman of Impulse for even more Forest ramp). Personally I'd cut something out somewhere (Prolly Talisman of Impulse and/or drop down to 2-of Thorn Elemental) to cram in some way of protecting your dudes. Rhox regenerates, but the other dudes are just screaming to get Go for the Throated

     draconos: Thanks for viewing! Generally speaking this deck wins by giving Animar Flying/Trample/Some form of evasion and winning through Commander damage. To say I have "alot of cheat into the battlefield effects" isn't really true. Three creatures with Cascade and Auspicious Starrix. You could argue Etali, Primal Storm as well, but on top of being a great body to Mutate, cheating cards into play from each players deck is definitely worth losing a Mutate proc. It has happened a few times where a creature I would've preferred to mutate was cheated into play, but definitely not so much that it's slowing me down. Being that the deck is more than 40% creatures I've not really had a problem ramping up Animar, either.

     While perhaps I don't have the most powerful cards in the 99, this is my newest deck and will continue to get stronger over time, but to say not a lot of power is being made isn't really correct, either. Any of the higher cost Mutate creatures with Rhox, Hydroid Krasis, Etali, Primal Storm or even Majestic Myriarch can be a win condition.

     Voidslime is a card I'm considering as well as Frilled Mystic and Mystic Snake. =)

My apologies to TypicalTimmy, but I don't know any slasher fiction (and often, I feel like I can't contribute to this thread when presented with esoteric topics, or even the topic of commander, since I don't ever play commander/EDH). But hey, go ahead and re-issue the challenge when you get the chance.

I think we've actually had the green angel challenge before, but I can do another unique one. Green doesn't usually have flying, but it can have other weirdnesses (see Orchard Spirit and Thorn Elemental or Rhox for precedents for the abilities listed on this card).


Angel of the Sacred Orchard

Creature - Dryad Angel (probably rare, yo)

Vigilance

Angel of the Sacred Orchard cannot be blocked except by creatures with flying.

: you may have target creature you control assign combat damage as though it wasn't blocked.

All of life is connected

4/4


With Vigilance (a green tertiary ability; see Greenwood Sentinel ) and its tap ability to allow your dudes to swing through defenders, it could be right nasty. Green also has a lot of combat tricks that result in untapping creatures too, so this would let you combine those effects for an even more potent blowout.

Wildcard. Maybe make something that fits TypicalTimmy's challenge from above, if you know slasher stuff, but I won't hold you to it.

RxPhantom: great to hear from you. Behemoth was added to the maybe board and will propably take the place of Rhox .

Vedalken orrery is way above my budget, but it would help a lot for sure.

Guess I'll have to go shopping for pieces again ;D

Tyrant-Thanatos on Similar to Siege Behemoth

There's not much of this effect in the game, and even less that grant it to other creatures. Outmaneuver is the only one I can find that hasn't already been listed. Otherwise we just have creatures that inherently do this, such as Thorn Elemental, Tornado Elemental, Rhox, and a few others that are markedly less good that these three.

Another option to push damage through is just to get deathtouch and trample on your attackers. Bow of Nylea with something like Primal Rage or Brawn generally makes your creatures not even worth blocking.
