The Infected Hybrids ( Budget Roalesk )

Commander / EDH* Budget Counters GU (Simic) Infect

Labrodor64


This is a 50$ (Optimised with heavily played cards and basic lands excluded) budget Roalesk, Apex Hybrid focusing on infect and +1/+1 counters. When Roalesk dies, he'll proliferate twice meaning that we add 2 more poison counters on our opponents and our infect creatures with +1/+1 counters will grow by two, allowing for quick games. One problem; Roalesk is a commander, so to get his death trigger, he's gonna need to go to the graveyard instead of the command zone and if we want to proliferate more, we need to constantly recur him. But there is a work around. Clones effetcs such as Cackling Counterpart or Mirror Image have a very interesting interaction with Roalesk, Apex Hybrid. When we cast a copy spell, it'll enter the battlefield, give out +1/+1 counters thanks to his ETB, then, because of the Legend Rule:( "If a player controls two or more legendary permanents with the same name, that player chooses one of them, and the rest are put into their owners' graveyards" ), we will need to sack one of the 2 creatures because Roalesk is legendary and it's copy too, we chose to sack the copy, and we manage to get it's death trigger easily. So the main strategy is to ramp, get any infect creature out, copy roalesk, and poison our enemies for the win.
