WAKE ME UP INSIDE *2020 UPDATE*

Commander / EDH Budget GU (Simic) Theme/Gimmick

Chromate


Maybeboard


(Wake me up) WAKE ME UP INSIDE(I can't wake up) WAKE ME UP INSIDE (Save me) CALL MY NAME AND SAVE ME FROM THE DARK (Wake me up) BID MY BLOOD TO RUN (I can't wake up) BEFORE I COME UNDONE(Save me) SAVE ME FROM NOTHING I'VE BECOME

Quick look: Strong ramp cards to get our main boy out ASAP, and some low cost instants to keep people away while we work on waking Arixmethes up, and producing our big bad sea boys. Add some untap and unblockable effects, and let good ol' Arix and friends flop on your opponents. Added some draw power to help gather all the right cards at the right time.

DESCRIPTION UPDATE COMING SOOOOOON Pemmin's Aurais a wincon with this deck. Create unlimited GREEN mana, make Arixmethes hexproof first, then flying, and give him +1/-1 until he has 21 power and 3 toughness. Swing for success! For extra security, make him unblockable in addition to flying!

C&C welcome! If you like the deck give it a quick upvote!

Updates Add

It' has been a while since this list was updated, I have an iteration of the deck I really like currently and plays well, so I will update the changes with reasons here:

  1. Chasm Skulker->Teferi, Master of Time Was not getting the card draw value I needed out of my skulky boy, and I pulled a Teferi, so it was a rather easy switch (Skulky will find a home in another deck).
  2. Island-> Lotus Field Too good in two colours with big creatures. Hexproof, three mana for the cost of two lands. I'll take that trade.
  3. Blue Sun Zenith -> Mystic Remora It is only fitting our mystical enchantment fish fists into this deck, giving us a huge card draw advantage the deck desperately needed. Blue sun cost too much when I needed to draw and pump out creatures.
  4. Reef Worm -> Marit Lage's Slumber I REALLY WANTED REEF WORM TO WORK BUT IT TAKES TOOOOOOOO LONG. I traded him in favour of getting a 20/20 indestructible avatar potentially a little quicker depending on ramp. Reef worm will find a home somewhere else (probs a Brudiclad deck).
  5. Basic Lands-> fancy-dancy Snow lands. Yes, I splurged a bit here, but with a purpose. Into the North is now just two mana ramp, and I can trigger Marit Lage's Slumber much quicker now with the amount of ramping the deck does. Plus it looks cool, Ok?
  6. Negate-> Serpent of Yawning Depths There are enough counter spells/ answers in the deck, and to give ALL THE BIG CREATURES UNBLOCKABLE was an easy trade for me. I have now another way to get a 12/12 through a wall of tokens.

Those are the current upgrades for the deck. If you don't want those expensive upgrades, there are PLENTY of budget options I started with, so check out the past updates. This deck is still, by far, my favorite deck, and holds up to some really stupid shenanigan decks. It is my go to for a fair yet strong win. Play the big guy how you want, but have fun building the deck your way. That is of course, the best way to play.

Keep smashing.

P.S. Why the heck did Pemmin's Aura spike to like 15$???? SOMEONE FILL ME IN.
