Xenagod Aggro card suggestions!

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on Sept. 15, 2015, 10:08 a.m. by bluwarguy

Main focus of the deck is to deal as much damage as fast as possible. Need some card suggestions and what cards to replace. http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/27-08-15-xenagod/

Basic ramp spells Rampant Growth, Skyshroud Claim, Farseek etc. Also, some creatures that work well are Somberwald Sage, Karametra's Acolyte, Shaman of the Forgotten Way and basic mana dorks such as Birds of Paradise. Feel free to check out my Xenagos build. I have been running him for awhile now and its pretty brutal in 1v1 and 1v1v1. Oh also, two cards every xenagos deck needs are Malignus and Mage Slayer. Dont think I need to explain why :P

It's been my experience that Xenagos likes ton of ramp and dropping big, ugly fatties on board. As Exiled_soul said, creature ramp is key. Some creatures that should make the cut are the four basic elf dorks (Elvish Mystic, Llanowar Elves, Fyndhorn Elves, and Arbor Elf), Somberwald Sage, Birds of Paradise, Lotus Cobra, and Bloom Tender. Three Visits, Nature's Lore, and Skyshroud Claim are also useful.

As for non-ramping cards, some auto-includes are Kessig Wolf Run, Temur Battle Rage (or any cheap cantrip that gives double strike at instant speed), Wheel of Fortune, Fauna Shaman, Survival of the Fittest and Sylvan Library (if the budget allows it), and Worldly Tutor.
