BEASTLY BROTHERHOOD

• Do you enjoy punching people in the face? • Do you really enjoy punching people in the face? • Is punching people in the face what gets you out of bed in the morning?

Then

BEASTLY BROTHERHOOD

is the deck for you!

It's pretty straightforward, no?

1. Play lands.
2. Play Beasts.
3. Turn Beasts sideways.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 until table is dead.

Although this deck is designed for stompy, aggro, brutish, mean, slobber-knocking, face-pounding, teeth-loosening beatdown, that doesn't mean it isn't designed intelligently for the savvy EDH player. Each of these fine monsters has a specific role to fill within the structure of the deck (even if most of their roles are "face-punchers".) Let's take a closer look, shall we?

"Hey Hock, where are all the artifacts? This deck doesn't even have a Sol Ring! You know Sol Ring is legal in EDH, right?"

Yes, I know. You don't need to tell me. Rocks are for throwing, and in that case, we'd be running Karn, Silver Golem or Bosh, Iron Golem as our Commander. But we aren't. No rocks.

One thing this deck is delightfully good at is disrupting artifact-based decks. Batterhorn, Oxidda Scrapmelter, Manglehorn, Indrik Stomphowler, Woodripper, and Molder Slug all hate on artifacts. We don't like artifacts here. We like punching people in the face. (Sensei's Divining Top is the lone exception, because you gotta spin to win.)

Another thing this deck is delightfully good at is drawing cards. Not Damia good or Arcanis good, but good. Wirewood Savage, Garruk's Packleader and Elemental Bond all help the beatdown continue, and all are particularly good at rebuilding your board state after an untimely board wipe.

Two things really get stuck in this deck's craw: lack of Trample and lack of ways of dealing with fliers. Fangren Pathcutter and Craterhoof Behemoth help deal with the first issue, and Chancellor of the Tangle helps a bit with the second issue. My suggestion? Punch the player with fliers in the face harder than he or she can punch you back, and your problems are solved.

Don't forget to fetch Gruul Ragebeast as soon as possible so that your brutish Beasts can start punching your opponent's critters in their faces too.

I'd like to thank Gahiji for being such a great commander. All of the header images in this description were done by Darrenn E. Canton, who also came up with this deck list.
