Ezuri, Claw of Proliferate

Commander / EDH Counters GU (Simic)

Redsavina


Maybeboard


Here is my new Ezuri, Claw of Progress Commander deck. I bought the MTG 2015 Commander Premade deck, and then went to work on tweaking it. Probably should have bought the individual cards instead, but I like where its heading.

I am focusing on making use of the +1/+1 counters by casting Ezuri as my first creature on the board, then protecting him as soon as I can with one of the 3 artifacts to give him indestructible / hexproof / shroud, and then bringing in as may creatures as I can, to boost the experience counters. Then, the Proliferate cards will boost all counters. I am aiming for 20 experience counters or more per game, and then dumping those on creatures each turn. After playing the deck 3 times now, I can see how it's totally doable to get past 20 experience counters, however, it can be challenging. I have been to 16, and when I get my hooded hydra all pumped up, someone exiles the creature, thus resulting in no tokens. If I had a reliable way of sacrificing a creature it may be easier to generate more tokens entering the battlefield and I would have more control over going crazy with generating experience counters. Maybe I need a few more creatures that produce tokens when it enters the battlefield.

I have played a few games with this build and so far, this deck is wicked fun to pilot. People don't see your 1/2 or 2/2 creatures as a threat, until they realize that you just dumped 8 +1/1 counters on Blighted Agent, or those 7 snake tokens you got from your hooded hydra dying last turn become leathal when you drop Beastmaster Ascention on your next pre-combat main phase, lol.

I am thoroughly enjoying this build and will add more commentary as I get better at playing the deck.
