Akroan Horse

Artifact Creature — Horse

Defender

When Akroan Horse enters the battlefield, an opponent gains control of it.

At the beginning of your upkeep, each opponent creates a 1/1 white Soldier creature token.

I don't think Thantis should leave home without Rite of the Raging Storm, this way everyone has stuff to swing as your opponents, but nobody has extra vs you, but it also should work with Garruk's Uprising. Akroan Horse is another so-so source of bodies that get better with supporting buffs. I am always surprised at how much work War Cadence can do in a meta with lots of attacking, it can even play like a Stax effect if the board is pretty big, because you can turn any swing into an unblockable one at instant speed. Mask of Griselbrand is a pretty impressive equipment in practice, Flying is great evasion, Lifelink is a great ability on a large creature and that much card draw can change a game's outcome very easily.

If you're looking seriously at cards like Assassinate, I feel I should point out that it's a Sorcery and has targeting limitations. If you want to run sorcery speed removal then I strongly recommend Make an Example and Phyrexian Purge, both of those are quite a bit better. I think you could also look at Beast Within and Road / Ruin, both are very useful spells, offering versatility of effect.

Have you drawn Nikya in many games yet? I feel like with only 31 creatures in the 99 that you'll not want to cast him very often, it'll interfere with your other spells.

I'm not sure that Dragon Whelp is a very reliable Commander card, it's not that much less mana than a Shivan Dragon, and it's a much worse card. I would note that most people who play Shivan Dragon in Commander are playing it as a pet card, there are other better cards you could play. I think you could just play something like Avatar of Fury even, it's janky but it's very easy for it to cost 2 mana later game, or maybe Cavalier of Flame if you want something pricier.

Since Thantis can get pretty big, I suspect anything like Return of the Wildspeaker or Rishkar's Expertise would be pretty solid in here.

I'm not sure how much of a target Thantis ends up being, but Angel's Trumpet is a nice back up option that does something similar.

Akroan Horse?

If you can sac your own tokens pretty regularly a Ward of Bones might be fun. Nobody can play creatures because you gave them a token.

Infested Juggernaut

Artifact Creature - Phyrexian Juggernaut

Trample, trample over planeswalkers

When Infested Juggernaut dies, create X 1/1 colorless Phyrexian Mite artifact creature tokens with toxic 1 and "This creature can't block." where X was Infested Juggernaut's power.

Many believe the Praetor merely corrupt and consume, but this is not true. They study the history of their enemies, to better learn their tactics. In this case, Elesh Norn was quite fond of the fabled tales of the Akroan Horse of Theros.

6/7


I doubt we will get to see Tezzeret in this set, but I'd like to see that.

Make an ESPER Tezzeret.

Now, canonically he is actually immune to Phyresis so he can not be Compleated. So your goal is to make a Tezzeret who actually gained access to mana after seeing the absolute horrors he helped the Phyrexian unleash, and he is now heading down the path of retribution to atone for his sins.

Interesting idea. I would suggest finding ways to give opponents creatures like with Goblin Spymaster or Akroan Horse the hunted cycle could work(Hunted Dragon,Hunted Troll) maybe not Hunted Horror that could backfire. Also Skullclamp would be great for card draw.

Have you thought about trying to give Zangief Deathtouch and Trample, so he can deal 2 damage to each creature? Would be funny with a Lure or Nemesis Mask. Ohran Frostfang is a nice Deathtouch source and draw source if you've got creatures, Bow of Nylea also makes it easier to kill creatures. There are countless great trample sources in Green, I can point out a few if necessary, including ones like Goreclaw, Terror of Qal Sisma that have lots of other upsides.

Would janky stuff like Akroan Horse make sense here, to give opponents weenies for Zangief to piledrive? If people have a bunch of weenies, you can hit them with a Chandra's Ignition, so Zangief Piledrives stuff for you. Helm of the Host can copy Zangief for you I guess?

Have you also considered Poison-Tip Archer to hit all opponents at once and Akroan Horse for some continual spawn?

Amazing deck! I did not realise there was someone before me with this idea, and I love how your deck is looking. Cards to consider for your Maybeboard: Acorn Catapult, Death by Dragons, Elephant Resurgence, Kamahl's Summons, Plague of Vermin, Tempt with Vengeance, Artifact Mutation, Dowsing Dagger  Flip, Curse of Disturbance, Liege of the Hollows, Sawtusk Demolisher, Akroan Horse, Hungry Lynx, Life of the Party, Sleeper Agent, Tahngarth, First Mate and lets not forget the "Hunted" cycle with Hunted Horror, Hunted Dragon and Hunted Troll
