Sultai Spider Spawning

Commander / EDH

Based off of BDM's Spider Spawning Deck featured in an episode of The Command Zone a few years ago... made some changes for budget (I can't afford a $1000+ mana base) and to update it (since it was made when Khans was new).

Quick list of changes that will be made and, as such, don't need to be suggested:

  • The guild gates will be replaced by shock lands once I get them.

Ways to win:

This deck really wants to leverage having lots of creatures in the graveyard, hence the small amount of non-creature spells - if it's not going to be a creature, it REALLY needs to earn its place in the deck. One of the bigger ways to win is to drop a huge Spider Spawning and overwhelm your opponents with either... a) Craterhoof Behemoth

b) Essence of the Wild (all of them come in as 6/6 instead of 1/2)

c) Master Biomancer to start them all off bigger than 1/2

d) if the ground is clogged up, Ishkanah lets me hit people's life totals directly.

I'm a bit concerned about the lack of real targeted removal, beyond recurring Terastodon with oversold cemetery/journey to eternity's flipped side/whatever. Similarly, I'm ok with replacing the mana ramp creatures with different creatures that do similar things, I just had them in because they were in the original deck.
