Gorgon Recluse
Creature — Gorgon
Whenever Gorgon Recluse blocks or becomes blocked by a nonblack creature, destroy that creature at end of combat.
Madness (If you discard this card, you may cast it for its madness cost instead of putting it into your graveyard.)

Cuts:
Helm of Obedience if not going combo route
Arisen Gorgon Too dependant on Liliana being on the field
Gorgon Recluse Too high CMC for what you do
Infernal Medusa Medusa /= Gorgon
Keepsake Gorgon Too high mana for one and done
Korozda Gorgon Too high CMC && not running heavy +1+1 Presence
Ohran Viper As you are in blue, you have better options for card draw, especially because this one means you have to deal damage to player first.
Oona's Blackguard Cut unless you are rogue heavy
Pitiless Gorgon All your snakes will typically have deathtouch or be able to gain it, at 3 mana this should do more.
Venomous Hierophant Currently you aren't running much recursion cards I.E Reanimate
Night's Whisper not too useful, in blue if you need card draw, maybe a Blue Sun's Zenith or something
Maybe:
Gaze of the Gorgon A little too high mana but hilarious at the same time.
Killing Glare not bad spot removal, however, it may be more impactful to consider something like Doom Blade which is cheaper, and works on all but white.
Vraska, Relic Seeker Might be better for pirate deck, it's not on flavor at all here, and not in line with or as powerful as your other walkers.
Vraska, Swarm's Eminence This is useful however high mana for what it does, totally up to you, this could go either way.
Adds:
Chromatic Lantern To ensure you make colors. Given you're going heavy black we may need to revise this item.
Eternal Witness , Maybe cut Pharika's Mender for this, as it is 2 less CMC for almost the same thing.
Chevill, Bane of Monsters super value at 2 cmc
Baleful Strix Super value at 2cmc, fly, dedtouch, card draw
Fathom Feeder value town, and if you yank combo pieces this can help facilitate a win with it's ability
Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons 2cmc, high high values and makes SNEKS!!!!
Hythonia the Cruel Yeet cannons all non-gorgon creatures + big creature
Seshiro the Anointed SNEK SNEK +2+2 to all SNEKS! Draw card wen snek do damage!
Kaseto, Orochi Archmage Unblockable +2+2 SNEKS!
Prowling Serpopard Make's your Sneks and Gorgon's Un-Counterable
Stonecoil Serpent cool snek, but I think you might already have cooler in deck & on list
Orochi Hatchery Funny stuff this one, totally up to you
Bow of Nylea all creatures get deathtouch + more check this one out
Ohran Frostfang Gives attacking creatures you control ded touch and when your creatures damage a player, draw a card.

dragonstryke58 on ability usage and protection
3 years ago
As the activated ability of Jareth, Leonine Titan does not include a or any activation restrictions in its effect, it can be activated any number of times as long as you have the mana to pay for its activation cost.
For protection, you can use the acronym DEBT to figure out what it's protected from.
- D - Damage
- E - Enchant/Equip
- B - Blocking
- T - Targeting.
If Jareth, Leonine Titan's activated ability is used during combat, and he blocks creatures, he is protected from damage that could be lethal, but that does not mean he is indestructible. If an opponent uses Wrath of God (with something like Vedalken Orrery to give it flash), Jareth, Leonine Titan will still be destroyed. Also, creatures like Gorgon Recluse can still destroy Jareth, Leonine Titan as a result of being blocked.

Reckless Wurm seems a valid option for this deck. Would consider removing Twins of Maurer Estate and Gorgon Recluse .

Graveblade Marauder was in my old deathtouch and lifelink deck. Otherwise I would suggest not playing Zulaport Cutthroat because it only triggers on your opponent's creatures.
My sudggestions for improvement:
+2 Ambush Viper flash + deathtouch is good
+2 Poison-Tip Archer you said this worked well so play 4
+4 Blood Artist More of the same effect is good
+1 Rancor amazing card
+4 Grave Titan better win con than varaska.
+4 narnum renegade better 1 mana deathtoucher
+4 Graveblade Marauder I like this card in deathtouch decks
+21 cards
-2 Gorgon Recluse too high mana cost and no way to madness it.
-2 Vraska the Unseen too slow of a win con.
-3 Pharika's Chosen narnum renegade is better.
-2 Nyx Weaver has no synergy here.
-1 Hythonia the Cruel too slow and expensive.
-2 Primal Rage
-2 Boar Umbra
-2 Reaper of the Wilds Blood Artist is better and you have to pay to give this deathtouch.
-21 cards
auras are not good unless they are put on hexproof creatures. Except for Rancor that card is great because it returns to your hand. Pump spells are not great outside of stompy and infect decks.

You could potentially cheat out decent spells with their madness cost...things like Asylum Visitor, Alms of the Vein, Big Game Hunter, Fiery Temper, Bloodhall Priest, From Under the Floorboards, Gorgon Recluse, and Dark Withering.
These are all pretty cheap and have some decent abilities...

Hi! Thanks for your deck, I am a big fan of non-UG madness myself.
Cards to consider, espcially if you feel mana-confident:Violent Eruption as it helps wipe out several smaller creatures and can be nice against aggro decks. Arc Trail works similarly and you can cast it from your hand.
I tried to put together a GR spellshaper madness and even though I have a weak spot for Bola Warrior, it is not very mana-efficient and you cannot use it outside combat, which is the main hinderance of most of your discard outlets. I would suggest Kris Mage who is cheaper to cast and more versatile, especially against aggros. Or you can use her to finish off a bigger creature. Or in the worst Undertaker.
If you are not playing against black and you feel you can muster toghether BB, Gorgon Recluse could be nice.
Any particular reason for not running the Twins of Maurer Estate since you feature them on the deck description?
As for discard outlets, what about Heir of Falkenrath Flip?

hi,
nice deck although personally i would remove Incorrigible Youths && Gorgon Recluse cause they both cost to much,even on madness.
Going on the value side i would add resuable creatures from grave.Shambling Remains and Extractor Demon are basically the same although you do get to attack only once,but i would prefer the haste on demand rather the discard maybe permanent.
Also aint 18 lands low even for aggro? i mean how do you expect to cast Crumble to Dust reliably? Maybe go 20lands?
Other than that +1 on the build seems solid enough.
