Man this looks diabolical, love it.

Ever though about adding other Goad effects as they are pretty strong with what you're gifting here? Things like Disrupt Decorum, Nelly Borca, Impulsive Accuser, Coronation of Chaos, Death Kiss, Day of the Moon, Bloodthirsty Blade, Geode Rager, Havoc Eater, Hot Pursuit, Laser Screwdriver, Immortal Obligation, Popular Entertainer, Shiny Impetus, Spectacular Showdown, Taunt from the Rampart and Vengeful Ancestor.

Expecially Disrupt Decorum, Spectacular Showdown and Taunt from the Rampart almost feels like wincon in there while i feel that Immortal Obligation really fits the theme of "good gifts" and Laser Screwdriver is a good mana dump when you've got nothing else in hand.

I will go lower power on these pets, but oddities as well.

Oath of Druids my baby! it can crap on control in great ways while making sure the game will have impactful play from many spots.

Descent into Avernus I write about this one all the time

Shiny Impetus I ramp away while not being the guy that removed my opponent's thing.. Also, lets that pain train keep on rolling

Any of the monarch courts

Titania's Song hilarious, kills treasures too.

Crescendo of War for the sake of aggression

Wand of Wonder it just randomly will get me out of a bind and makes my deck function unpredictably

I don't have much for pet creatures, I will have to look into that

Tried playtesting this against my Minn, Wily Illusionist EDH deck. On turn 6 or 7, I gained control of Karona, False God, attacked, then played Ixidron, effectively trapping your commander on my board. Another card in my deck would effectively do the same thing: In Too Deep. It was a bit of a slow drawn out process from there, but you may need something to destroy your commander if it gets trapped like this. Also saw after that this is meant to be a political deck, but.. just some notes.

Something like Shiny Impetus, Psychic Impetus, or Parasitic Impetus may help in situations like this, where it gets turned face down.

Gleeock on Thantis the Warweaver

Thantis, the Warweaver is so open-ended. When I did build Thantis to care more about forcing unfavorable combat I leaned heavily into lifelink... so: Whip of Erebos, etc... This way I could be more aggressive with my vigilant commander while also heavily discouraging swing-wide in my direction, (I had some situations where it came down to 1v1 & a field of 1/1's would swing at me, grow Thantis, & actually gain me life for the crackback). One of my favorites for anti-voltron was Shiny Impetus. I never personally saw that much allure to deathtouchees or Archetype of Finality, I'd rather be trampling with my giant commander & lifelinking aggressively. With playtesting, my opponents were tapped out half the time & open for business, or they had chump blockers which were going to be dead anyway (deathtouch was lame either way). The only reason I stopped playing combat-focused Thantis is because my meta was so heavy on non-combat tactics (tapdown their own stuff, etc...) So I eventually changed over to Jund goodstuff & making a lifedrain token-army deck.

Anger is a fantastic idea! I'll have to think hard about removing Shiny Impetus, as goad is one of my favorite mechanics and it fits both the theme and the mechanics of the deck well. I'll have to make a cut somewhere though, as you are correct, haste is an absolute must in this deck. My inclination points to Rose Room Treasurer, as it's a 4 mana do nothing the first turn its out and slowly recoups that value provided you have creatures entering and mana to blow on removal, which makes its floor-to-ceiling ratio pretty ludicrous (roughly in line with the risk/reward of having Anger in the list).

Duke Ulder Ravengard is definetely in there to high-roll on Winota triggers, and I like that if I play him for 6 he at least does something that turn. That being said, Zariel, Archduke of Avernus is some GAS. I think this is an easy swap, although I wanna play at least 1 game where I get Duke out to see how he feels before I switch him out of the list.

Shiny Impetus is a sweet gem though. Keeps the damage train going, pseudo removal, good anti-voltron. I play it in decks that don't double triggers & it usually nets me at least 2 ramp + a bunch of damage going elsewhere.

Anger and Shiny Impetus respectfully
