Maybeboard


Latest update: +1 Shark Typhoon, -1 Batterskull Batterskull is okay, it has helped me win in the past, however it is only good when you have extra mana to equip, and have Narset out. Plus it is definitely a bit out of theme, but hey! I ran it because I had it already. Shark Typhoon is clearly better here as it is more on theme and can create a HUGE board!

Okay tappedout, here's the deck version 4.20. I have been tinkering with this deck for years now. This is one of my most played decks, I love how chaotic it is. I really like how this deck just goes off!!!! I've done so much burn damage to the table with this and have done nasty things with Dimensional Breach. I highly encourage building a deck like this as it is just a blast to play! I've just updated it with a couple cards to get rid of the few ones I didn't like playing. Now its bigger, badder, and more explosive than ever!! Kaboom!

You want to play Narset but the combo version is just too boring.

What can I do with this deck?

  1. Play Narset without playing solitaire.
  2. Use some of the dumbest sorceries and enchantments of all time.
  3. Sling high cost spells at your opponents with cards: Blast of Genius, Erratic Explosion and Explosive Revelation.
  4. Blow up the field, burn your opponents and create chaos!

Why would I want to play this deck?

  1. You like casting spells for free.
  2. You like to have fun casting spells that no one else would play due to high CMC or being janky dollar store red rares. (aka you're a red player trapped in a blue player's format).
  3. You think EDH is more about the fun stuff you get to do while playing, and winning a game here or there is cool too.
  4. You don't like infinite combo play styles that are typically synonymous with Narset.

How I play the deck

  1. Aggressively mulligan high CMC cards out of your hand. The best hands are just a lot of lands and mana rocks.
  2. Get your lands out, and play your mana rocks. At this point let everyone know you aren't doing much of anything. They may take pity on you and let your first spell (Narset) resolve.
  3. While it would be good to have Narset out as early as possible, people will see this coming. If you feel your opponents are waiting to respond to you, be sure to check to make sure your opponents don't have mana open. This may delay you a turn or two, but it's worth it.
  4. Direct your spells to people who can answer Narset. Anyone who is playing a deck that's can make you sacrifice creatures or board wipe is Narset's #1 enemy.

As far as updates go, I need to remove the draw spells as they are pretty useless overall. (This has been achieved)

This is one of my favorite decks. I played it at GP Vegas in 2019. There are some updates, and its not quite perfect, but its got a real good thing going on.

Suggestions

Updates Add

Firstly, I removed a card that was much worse than I thought and Teferi for 2 more lands to improve my opening hands. I also removed Dig Through Time to add Ignite Memories as I don't really need to dig for anything.

I removed Divine Reckoning as when this deck needs a board wipe it doesn't want to leave one creature for my opponent with a problematic board state and I removed Recurring Insight as drawing lots of cards isn't really a priority in this deck and added Volcanic Vision and Mind's Dilation. These are great!

Next, I am removing Cast Through Time since it doesn't work with Narset. I am removing Spine of Ish Sah for more fun cards! I am also removing Grenzo's Rebuttal as it will pretty much mean Narset goes away. Foresee is also going since I really just want to keep the best cards on the top of the library and not draw them. Finally, I am removing Spellshock as it can hurt me more than my opponents but also, go big or go home.

Cards that are going in:

Blessed Wind Dome someone for 20 or give myself some life back.

Dimensional Breach Lol I'll take narset first, and beyond that idc

Expropriate Theft or turns? I'll take either and this card is value at $3.

Goblin Game The classic "fun" edh card

Whims of the Fates Red, you so random.

Sulfur Falls that my friend gave me
