Neheb, The Eternal Combats [A CEDH PRIMER]

Commander / EDH* Mono-Red

drobertson5539


My Cedh Neheb, The Eternal deck. Very powerful for mono red and holds its own at Cedh tables.

After doing some looking around, I realized Neheb lacks a good primer and is generally an underrated commander. People seem to be all over the place building him and there's nothing wrong with that. Still, I thought I'd write up a primer on him and show my current decklist after going through several versions. This deck wins turn 3-4 a fair bit and has won as early as turn 2. There are turn 1 wins in the deck if I ever get the draw. An example of this is, mountain, mox diamond, mana crypt mana vault, seething song, seize the day, aggravated assault, lightning greaves.

I'm trying to get the CMC down a bit even though I don't mind it being a little higher than a normal Cedh deck since our commander literally provides us mana. Many times I end up with more mana than I do spells. So some more expensive than usual Cedh cards still make the cut for now.

Even though Monored can be a bit inconsistent, our heavy wheeling really helps curb that. Neheb is perfect since he gives us the mana to do so.There's been some very powerful red EDH cards printed recently and many of those have a home here. Monored is getting better and better.

This deck typically wins through abusing multiple combats and wheeling to continue the cycle. Aggravated Assault is the most obvious combo piece going infinite with neheb. There's also the classic Kiki-Jiki and Zealous conscripts combo.

Much more efficient spells as well as fixed some of the land base. some of these adds are much needed. Deck should flow much smoother now and lowered the actual CMC by a decent amount here
