Been goldfishing a series of budget EDH decks, think I settled on this one. Wanted something that rewarded ramping, and Xenagos lends itself to a pretty linear ramp into a fatty then alpha strike strategy, but that ends up being pretty fun in a Timmy sort of way. It's probably super vulnerable to any kind of counters or board wipes but as is it consistently goldfishes kills on turn 6-7.
