Yahenni's Penultimate Party

Commander / EDH

Ben_Marsh


Sideboard


The goal of this deck is to outlast and out value other players. Most of the cards in the deck can be played multiple times per game.

I'm looking for suggestions for the deck. I've been play-testing with my group for about 6 months now and its been running smooth. Just looking to get any input that could help, Thanks!

Synergy's and Combos:

Buried Alive + Bloodghast , Nether Traitor , Reassembling Skeleton:

This gives Yahenni plenty of sacrifice outlets and fuel for morbid/sacrifice effects.

Yahenni, Undying Partisan + Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet + Dictate of Erebos AND/OR Grave Pact:

Sacrifice any creature to Yahenni, Undying Partisan then Dictate of Erebos forces each other player to sacrifice a creature. When an opponents creature dies it gets exiled to Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet and you get a zombie token. Sacrifice the zombie token and repeat. In a multiplayer game you can easily Clear the board and get tons of zombies in one turn.

Crypt Rats + Whip of Erebos:

Crypt Rats with Lifegain lets you gain stupid amounts of life while doing great damage. Yahenni can sacrifice the rats to become indestructible before the ability resolves so any creatures that die buff him and you gain life.

Volrath's Stronghold + Rune-Scarred Demon:

Play Rune-Scarred Demon tutor for Volrath's Stronghold and spend the rest of the game tutoring every turn by sacrificing Rune-Scarred Demon to Yahenni then using Volrath's Stronghold to place Rune-Scarred Demon on top of your library.

Skullclamp + Bloodghast , Nether Traitor , Reassembling Skeleton , Bitterblossom , Ophiomancer:

Draw two and repeat.

Bloodstained Mire,Marsh Flats, Polluted Delta, and Verdant Catacombs allow for land ramp with Rings of Brighthearth netting two lands for two mana. They also work great with Bloodghast and Crucible of Worlds I enjoy using them as they thin the deck out too.

Cabal Coffers + Deserted Temple + Rings of Brighthearth + 6x Snow-Covered Swamp:

This is the main combo for the deck. This lets you go infinite mana by Tapping Cabal Coffers adding 6 mana to your pool, next tap Deserted Temple to untap Cabal Coffers and activate Rings of Brighthearth to copy the effect on Deserted Temple this will net you 1 black mana. Having Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth in play makes this much easier. With most of the above synergies you can close a game quickly with the endless mana.

TLDR: Any ideas are welcome. I'm trying to refine the deck as much as I can.
