Build Help for Ezuri (Made out of Swell the Host)

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on Aug. 11, 2016, 3:35 p.m. by man1ac

Hey guys,

I recently got back into magic and started with 2 commander decks. One of them is Ezuris, Claw of Progress. At first I started with the 20$ upgrade from MTGGoldfish, but soon the decks I have to compete were stronger.Mostly I play against my own Meren (played by another friend) and I feel like the deck needs an Upgrade!

You can see the deck here:My Ezuri Deck

Sideboard Cards are the ones I think aren't perfect, but since I got back and am not the best guy for deckbuilding I need feedback on my "ideas" :)

The Maybeboard arrive the last couple of days (had a look at a variety of decks here and from edhrc. So I bought the stuff I thought would be fun to play and have :)

But now I need help putting it all together. Swap in and Swap out :)I dont want or need every card from the Maybeboard in the deck, but I think there are some really really good ones...

thanks guys!

Check this out - http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/simic-stunts/. I built all around small creatures and 'care about counters' creatures, keeping in a budget build for a "Under $100" league. This deck seriously wants doubling season, but I can't find the budget to cut for it right now.

Anyway, star cards you're missing are fathom sage, Murkfiend Liege, some of the trample-granting cards, Fable of Wolf and Owl, Plasm Capture, Jedit Ojanen, Triskelion, Thrummingbird.

Good luck!

May be a bit expensive, depending where you get it from, but Kalonian Hydra is an excellent card for decks that buffs creatures to all hell (probably remove Acidic Slime, because frankly, it's too expensive mana wise), and to elaborate on huge creatures, Managorger Hydra is an excellent choice (remove Simic Keyrune because it's just taking up room that could be given to a much better card, or maybe Thought Vessel since you have Reliquary Tower. Also, to add to your sideboard in case an opponent has a lot of removal, Death's Presence is great for making your opponents' removal of creatures grind to a halt. You'd have to have some protection for it, granted, but with blue, that's relatively simple. I know that some of these are already on your maybeboard, but they are pretty awesome for these decks. Another great card to recommend is called Mistcutter Hydra. It's great because it can't be touched by blue counterspells, or any other color of counter spells. Yet another great card is Khalni Hydra. Based on all of the green creatures you have, you can throw him out for free and just annihilate the opposition. I realize that some of these cards are on your maybeboard, but they are just that good that they should be on the main. Hope this helps
