Hi, Last_Laugh here. I've been playing MTG off and on since I was 14 (back around the time Mirage came out... God I'm getting old).

I started off as a casual kitchen table player playing multiplayer with 6+ people and 60 card decks. OMG these games took FOREVER! (3 hours was a short game)

I quit for several years, came back briefly for Torment, left again, and then came back around the end of Time Spiral and have been actively playing since then.

I played Standard from Alara up until Return to Ravnica rotated out (screw Standard Rotation!) but now only play EDH. Animar and Marchesa are my favorite Commanders.

ACTIVE:

Every Masochist Needs a Marchesa to Love Them

Spanisshin Inquisisshin

Alela's Aerodynamics: A Crash Course

Bipedal Beastmode (Éowyn Human Tribal)

Dopplegangbangers - Historic Flash Convoke Copies

RETIRED:

Muldrotha's Madhouse ⫷Primer⫸

Added Layers of Protection - Tymna & Sidar

Marisi the Pimp - (Combat) Trickin' Hoes

Prossh's Dastardly Bastard Children - Group Slug

Animar, Gaea's Hemorrhoid ⫷PRIMER⫸

Sisay's Hombres -Hatebears

Edgar's Dega Vampires

Little Rey of Ishine (Reyhan/Ishai)

Delney, Streetwise Lookout, Mirkwood Bats, and Kambal, Profiteering Mayor are definitely worth consideration.

Ok, so I'm not going to lie... I've had this deck built for roughly 9 years straight at this point so the list is very optimized and cuts are TOUGH. Every Masochist Needs a Marchesa to Love Them is the list and Mahadi, Emporium Master is the card I'm looking to hopefully add.

The deck is set up for ETB/Death trigger abuse with aggro as a plan B. It usually wins by looping Gray Merchant of Asphodel with alternate sources of +1+1 counters and sac outlets so I can drain multiple times on every player's turn (including any of my clones entering/re-entering as Gary copies).

legendofa Well I hope you met your deadlines and got things taken care of. I just wanted to inquire if you've had a chance to contemplate the hubs I suggested?

April 19, 2024 1:11 p.m.

Np, sorry if any of those were already in the deck. Custom categories throw me off especially when they're sorted non-alphabetically lol.

April 19, 2024 12:09 a.m.

Hey, just a head up, but Adrix & Nev, Parallel Lives, Annointed Procession, Mondrak, and Ojer Taq don't work with The Sixth Doctor's tokens but they do work with Romana (I tried to do the same thing til I was also corrected). Rule 111.12 covers this. A token that is the result of copying a permanent spell isn't "created" and doesn't trigger any effects like the cards above that care specifically about creating a token.

You're after more effects like Lithoform Engine and some of the stuff like Clara Oswald from your maybeboard.

I personally run Peri Brown as my Dr.'s companion so exact same colors and strategy still, but feel free to check out my list for ideas (and rule 111.12 actually typed out). Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Dopplegangbangers - Historic Flash Convoke Copies

Ohran Frostfang, Toski, Bearer of Secrets, Reconnaissance Mission, Bident of Thassa, Coastal Piracy, The Indomitable, Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor, and Marcus, Mutant Mayor are all excellent draw engines here. I personally recommend running 3-5 of these but especially Ohran.

April 18, 2024 1:58 p.m.

You might have misread Danny Pink. ALL of your creatures have the ability so when you proliferate at eot you'll draw a card for each creature that got a counter. He's honestly borderline busted in a counters deck. To each their own but at the very least, I'd recommend Danny and Anduril.

April 17, 2024 9:47 p.m.

Etb/death trigger abuse. It usually wins by looping/cloning Gary/Kokusho.

April 17, 2024 7:44 p.m.

Np, I've had Marchesa built for like 9 years straight at this point and every one of those cards has made the cut but I understand wanting to try stuff out. If nothing else, get the enchantment removal in here though and hopefully it's not too presumptive to suggest those 3 cuts.

Demolish for Canoptek

Fretwork Colony for Feed the Swarm

Sea God's Scorn for Chaos Warp

April 17, 2024 5:18 p.m.

I have several suggestions for you. I'll keep things budget friendly and if you're picking up what I'm putting down, I can also help suggest some cuts.

First off is enchantment removal. There's hardly any options in th5ese colors but I recommend running all 3 so problematic enchantments like Solemnity or Rest in Peace don't wreck your day. Chaos Warp, Feed the Swarm, and Canoptek Tomb Sentinel are all budget friendly and worth their weight in gold here. Another good boardwipe here is Last One Standing.

I don't really do theft in my Marchesa list, but Gisa, Glorious Resurrector is the exception and holy crap does she put in some dirty work.

Next is card draw. Liliana's Standard Bearer, Lethal Scheme, Plumb the Forbidden, and Sage of Fables are all good budget options here. Sage will also come down before Marchesa and immediately give her or any other wizards you run a +1+1 counter. Plumb in response to boardwipes or right before your turn will refill your grip (instant speed and pseudo dodging counterspells makes this card). Also, Danny Pink's price has been sloooowly climbing but it's a very real possibility you'll find one in your LGS dollar binder and omg is this thing absolutely nuts!

On the subject of alternate sources of +1+1 counters... Thran Vigil only works on your turn but it'll get new counters on anything you stole and sac'ed on your turn. Vigean Graftmage let's you sac 2 creatures on everyone's turn (itself + whatever) to abuse etb/death triggers like Gray Merchant of Asphodel or even Grim Haruspex card draw. Spark Double I guess falls into this category and copies either Marchesa for double Dethrone or whatever your meanest etb/death trigger is at the time.

I'm also guessing Rakdos Locket was supposed to be Rakdos Signet.

Feel free to check out my list for ideas. It's far from budget friendly overall but I run everything I recommended. Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Every Masochist Needs a Marchesa to Love Them

I'd personally suggest cutting:

Viral Drake for Danny Pink

Guildpact Informant for Mutational Advantage

Lux Cannon for Beast Within

Atomize for Generous Gift or Stroke of Midnight

Juniper Order Ranger for Anduril, Narsil Reforged

Fuel for the Cause for Felidar Retreat

Tamiyo, Field Researcher for Marcus, Mutant Mayor

Otherworld Atlas for Breena, the Demagogue (make em earn the group huggy card draw)

Also consider Wave Goodbye and Ripples of Potential if you own them or they're in your budget.

Ripples of Potential and Wave Goodbye are 2 cards I added fairly recently. Ripples is especially nice if you're seeing Farewell ran more as an answer to Marchesa.

On that note, you have Cazur, Ruthless Stalker  Flip marked as a double sided card along with its' partner Ukkima, Stalking Shadow  Flip.

I highly disagree with a few of the suggested cuts above. Namely Dolmen Gate and Diabolic Intent.

Not only do I think Dolmen Gate deserves its' spot, but I highly recommend running more cards like it that let you swing safely so you can actually get your attack triggers. Reconnaissance is amazing and lets you swing with EVERYONE safely, untap each creature at the most opportune time, and have every one of those creatures untapped by the end of combat. Iroas, God of Victory is another that I recommend running.

legendofa re: double triggers. None of what you listed is a trigger. I'm talking Isshin, Two Heavens as One, Teysa Karlov, Felix Five-Boots, Yarok, the Desecrated, Gandalf the White, Drivnod, Carnage Dominus, Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines, etc.

I guess to me a hub describes a decks main focuses and when I'm unable to describe my deck this way then the available hubs might be getting too narrow.

Anyways, cheers and sorry for the bad timing... it didn't even click I tossed this at ya on a prerelease weekend.

legendofa I have a few more suggestions for hubs. They're all pretty self explanatory but I included a few examples that'd use them.

Attack Triggers: With more things like Isshin, Caesar, Kaalia, etc. it's time.

Damage Triggers: Mainly just for Felix Five Boots because there really aren't ANY hubs besides aggro for him. I'm guessing there's a few others that'd use this hub though.

Death Triggers: Marchesa the Black Rose, Teysa Karlov, and other death decks that aren't Aristocrats but still care about stuff dying.

Double Triggers: This one is pretty broad but again, there's no hub to describe this deck focus and there's a LOT of Commanders that double various triggers now.

April 12, 2024 1:07 a.m.

austintayshus It should, it's combat damage from a permanent that triggers it and yeah unless I missed another new Cypher card, they're all a bit overcosted.
