I don't normally say this, but you could actually probably stand to cut a couple of lands. 39 lands is a lot, especially with the surprisingly reasonable amount of ramp/rocks you're running. I'd recommend cutting about 3 for more way to either A- Increase your commander's power for more upkeeps or B- Make your commander unblockable. Bedlam, Cover of Darkness, and even Levitation/Archetype of Imagination would work for the unblockable side of things. As for the power increases, depending on what you're spending your mana on each turn, Firebreathing style effects could work rather well, turning your extra mana into extra damage and upkeep triggers sounds like good fun.

I would also consider Red Elemental Blast because once someone sees your commander they will know hwo the deck is built and will attempt to counter it asap.

Forgive the triple post, but Bedlam overrides Masako the Humorless's ability, unfortunately.

This is definitely an excellent deck, and I like it, very much, but I do have some questions and/or suggestions; first, how does Angel of Glory's Rise fit the theme of this deck, since she does not have an ability taht triggers upon attacking? Second, would you considering putting any of the following card into this deck?: Fervent Charge, Powerstone Minefield, Grave Titan, Inferno Titan, or Sun Titan? Also, Bedlam affects your creatures, so would you consider either Goblin War Drums or Iroas, God of Victory, instead, and would you consider spending one more mana to replace Berserkers' Onslaught with Rage Reflection, or one less mana for Blade Historian, instead?

Gleeock on Pooping Outside the Litterbox (Marisi Goad)(C)

Hello, I have an ancient Marisi deck: Cats off the Lawn! That has slowly evolved over time to be an oddball Naya enchantress deck with a little bit of aggression (because enchantress is not exactly known for that... so why not?).

Anyway, a few helpful things i've found along the way:

1. protection keyword rules - evasion & resistance to removal combines really nicely... an early version of my deck was all about that: Hexdrinker & Haktos the Unscarred were great. I'm still in love with Earnest Fellowship

2. Rabble Rousing - while good in my enchantress shell is equally good (maybe better) in a creature-spitting shell like yours. Court of Grace at least gives you an evasive creature consistently & the first card draw from monarch.

3. Bedlam is amazing. The chaos and angst it causes is worth it.. not defending anyway.

4. Crescendo of War also amazing... again, not defending anyway :)

Anyway, my meta became pretty heavy in non-combat wincons & such, or there would become this unintended sort of "screw you" minigame where players would waste a bunch of resources to workaround swing at me while they could since I put so many eggs in that one goading basket. so I eventually changed the shell to make the deck not really care about Marisi as much, but also use him (as you mentioned), as more of a strategy shiftpoint.

Ideas.

Bedlam spicy card creatures cannot block. Agro your opponents out.

Imposing Grandeur neat wheel that let's you draw 6 and your opponents probably draw 2 or 3.

Surestrike Trident w/a free equipt cost your creatures tap to deal dmg equal to their power.

Forging the Tyrite Sword slow ramp w/ a equipment tutor.

Skullclamp can be op with all the tokens. Yes most aren't 1 toughness but they will die alot.

Goblin Gaveleer big creature when you add equipment

Goblin Bombardment alot of tokens to throw around

Bitterthorn, Nissa's Animus Sword of the Animist ramp 1 is a living weapon too.

Most x and y Swords are expensive but feel free to consider them.

Although these are interesting ideas I went back through your list and i think you need more interaction.

Think anything from Wasteland type effects to Path to Exile or grave hate Soul-Guide Lantern protection Blacksmith's Skill I'm sure you have some favorites. I'd add at least 3 or 4 more. I personally like it when even If I don't draw my answer to a problem I at least have one in my deck.

Especially grave hate. I don't think I'd suggest Rest in Peace but I really think everyone should run 1 or 2 pieces of grave hate recursion is so popular and powerful these days you need to have an answer or you aren't playing the game.

Happy brewing!

Middle school for me. I believe my dad got the box for $85. That's so cool you were able to get proper orders to the family business.

Very generous gift and nice memory. I was lucky I pulled a Cradle and Academy from my one box.

I still have that mindset/mentality but this game has been hollowed out by the sharks/vultures/whales. I hate to see what it has become.

Haha I too also don't think it was play tested properly. All the legendary lands are iconic and powerful. Telepathy is a very cool power creeped uncommon. I always had a soft spot for Hidden Guerrillas. Excellent choice for favorite creature. Green deserves land destruction! I'm in the same lane as you but with Endless Wurm. I know it was an artifact block but the enchantments were so powerful. Sneak Attack is my favorite engine piece still to this day. Bedlam has always intrigued me as reverse Moat. Contamination is power at any cost. Gamble is a perfectly balanced red tutor.

As you can tell I really loved this set and what it did to the card pool. Every EDH deck I build has at least 1 Urza Saga card.

Bothersome Quasit and Bedlam allow you to goad unimpeded. Bedlam is a bit ballsy and has the potential to backfire but the quasit is worth its weight in gold here.

Vengeful Ancestor is a stud here.

Beloved Chaplain, Soltari Foot Soldier, Soltari Champion, Soltari Visionary, Spirit en-Dal, Spirit Mantle, and Champion of Lambholt will ensure you get through in combat to goad someone.

Authority of the Consuls in addition to Urabrask makes it so every hastey boy isn't sent your way and makes it impossible for your opponents to play fresh ungoaded blockers.

I've also had really good results out of 'deals combat damage to an opponent' effects due to a lack of blockers once a goad chain gets going. Stuff like Aerial Extortionist, Ancient Gold Dragon, and Scepter of Celebration.

A pet card of mine that's hilariously effective here is Kusari-Gama. It'll get your big boys through or wipe their board. Equip it to Soltari Guerrillas to ensure no one can block ANY of your creatures without immediate retaliation.

Anyways, feel free to check out my list for ideas. Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Marisi the Pimp - (Combat) Trickin' Hoes

Thanks for the kind words Entity_178! I agree Bedlam could be improved on, it's mostly in there for the name :) Right away, I think Furnace of Rath would be better and I'm sure there are even better options.

I hope your group enjoys the deck and I hope you can make it even more chaotic!
