Enter the Battlefield... please make it stop

Commander / EDH* RUG (Temur)

kyumarcel


My first real Commander Deck, based around Riku of Two Reflections .

I tried to keep balance between my creatures and instant/sorcery-spells. The creatures are losely based on 'enter the Battlefield' effects for some additional fun when Riku generates tokens.

As an example I use Bogardan Hellkite, shooting 5 damage divided as you like between players and creatures on a 5/5 flying body. That's pretty nice, but for just two mana more it is possible to double the effect. Another 5/5 flying token and another 5 damage divided as you choose. Sounds great for me.

Evoke also works wonders for this deck. For example Mulldrifter. Evoke it for 3 mana, draw two cards and then pay another UG for a token which isn't going to be sacrificed right away draws another two cards and is a 2/2 creature on top of it.

Mentionable Cards:

Possibility Storm, Chaos Warp , Proteus Staff - Turns Multiplayer Matches into chaos and lots of fun. Especially useful in my meta, because there are a lot of reanimator decks. Try to target your Akroma, lets see which spell you draw :D

Master Biomancer - Any time you have the feeling your threats aren't just big enough. With Riku token: Put additional 6 +1/+1 Counters on all my creatures

Maelstrom Wanderer cascading is just a beast, turned some unwinable situations into "Opps you are dead" moments attacking for 18 damage or more in the best cases.

Combos in this deck:

Flash + Worldspine Wurm - End of turn two: three 5/5 trample wurms

Palinchron + Deadeye Navigator = infinite mana

Deadeye Navigator + Gilded Lotus + Zealous Conscripts = Infinite Mana

Palinchron + Deadeye Navigator + Riku of Two Reflections + any haste creature = infinite haste attackers

Deadeye Navigator + Acidic Slime = Land/Artifact/Enchantment destruction for two mana

Repeat for any other enter the battlefield effect.

Birthing Pod for tutoring into bigger threats and triggering ETB-effects

Eternal Witness + Deadeye Navigator + Time Warp =infinite turns

thanks to Jellyfish for pointing it out.

That's about it. Please rate & comment.

Updates Add

It's been a long time since I last updated the deck, but this is the present version of the deck. Took out some of the smaller creatures and a cut the ramp. Instead added more stuff to cheat in big guys and randomize multiplayer matches
