Commander deck featuring Kresh the Bloodbraided, I have a lot of fun with this deck and he is one of my favorite commander decks to play. We have undergone a lot of changes over the years but we have a solid deck now at the perfect fun/casual 6-8 range.

All feedback is welcome to help improve the deck.

Current Changes

Right now we are working on getting a few key cards into the deck as well as organizing our land base.

On the add list:

• Eternal Witness

• Sakura-Tribe Elder

• Maelstrom Pulse

For lands: I am most likely removing a couple scry lands in order to add in the fast lands. I believe it is important to include 2 basics of each type for our fetch cards.

Combos

We have a lot of interactions for this deck, here are a bunch of them:

1. Mimic Vat, combine with card like Eternal Witness or Sakura-Tribe Elder for some great value.

2. Nim Deathmantle and Ashnod's Altar are crazy together. Both work wonders on their own for Ramp and Reanimate effects but together you just need Grave Titan or Wurmcoil Engine to go infinite with mana and tokens.

3. Mikaeus, the Unhallowed is an awesome card here, having our creatures around for a second use is awesome. But when you combine it with our persist creatures you normally just win, Murderous Redcap and a sac outlet for example.

4. Purphoros, God of the Forge works so well with a creature heavy deck. Toss in Ghoulcaller Gisa for crazy amounts of damage.

Winning

We are not playing a top teir commander, we are not playing all the best cards or tutors. We are just here to have fun and win through our many avenues, instead of running the same win strategy every game.

1. We want to try and assemble any of our combos from above. Most of them are game ending situations.

2. We have the ability to play out our commander and actually win the game. Sacrifice can increase his size quickly, we have our couple Fling themed cards to use or we can just Shizo, Death's Storehouse to bypass a lot of blockers.

3. Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord is a monster in the deck. Often times with him and Kresh you can close out a game with 3 activations.
