So, this is the very first EDH deck I have attempted to build, and so far the project has been quite fun. Having stopped playing back in the Mirrordin block I've had to re-acquaint myself with my collection and do a whole bunch of research. As a matter of fact, to those familiar with this commander you'll probably find no surprises.

So what is it that I want the deck to do? I picked Borborygmos Enraged primarily because I used to run a Seismic Assault deck back in the day, and I suppose all I really want to accomplish here is throwing a whole bunch of lands at my enemy. To that end the primary win conditions are commander-based: Abundance with Keen Sense/Snake Umbra, Life from the Loam and cycle lands, or Grafted Exoskeleton. Of course there's always commander damage using Kessig Wolf Run and maybe Rubblehulk. If that doesn't work out, then I also have a late game Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle package.

I understand that deck tuning comes from actual experience with my local metagame, but I haven't hit that stage and would like some help with the final stretch. Right now it feels like I have a pretty decent core; outside of the combo pieces most of the deck is mana ramp or card draw/tutors. I have ten slots left to fill, and don't really know what I should put in there from my available choices (the Maybeboard), or if there are any Mainboard cards I should cut.

Would love to hear advice from members of the community.
