Devils & Motorcycles

Commander / EDH Mono-Red

mccabej140


The goal is to maximize the devils you can make with Zurzoth, Chaos Rider. This deck isn't trying to be a devil tribal deck since devils aren't very synergistic and most are frankly not very good. The deck does contain some of the better devils such as Devilish Valet, Gibbering Fiend, Hellrider and Burn Down the House but the deck mostly focuses on dealing damage and maximizing the usefulness of the devils created by Zurzoth.

Points of Note:

Basilisk Collar and Gorgon's Head have an interesting interaction with dying devils. If a devil token has either of these equipped and dies the 1 damage is done with death touch. This makes the tokens much more annoying for your opponents.

Silverclad Ferocidons is particularly back breaking for your opponents if you can get it to trigger a couple times.

I prioritized cards that buff the devil tokens such as Shared Animosity, Coat of Arms, Obelisk of Urd and Heraldic Banner. Adding even 1 power to your devil tokens really adds to their threat level since you'll be making so many of them.

I also forgo most wheels and things that make opponents draw on my turn. The rationale was that I would be making my opponents draw on my turn using devil tokens so I focused on cards that make opponents draw during other player's turns like Temple Bell, Otherworld Atlas and Magus of the Wheel.

In mono red decks I like to add a small goblin sub-theme. This gives the deck a decent back-up plan with Moggcatcher and Goblin Matron serving as searchers while Dockside Extortionist, Goblin Engineer and Brash Taunter provide value.

Mutavault can act as a devil for an extra Zurzoth trigger.

Brash Taunter combos very well with damage doublers. Especially damage doublers that are two-sided like Furnace of Rath. With both out, a 4/4 would deal 8 damage to Brash Taunter and Brash Taunter deals 16 damage to an opponent of your choice!
