Hi_diddly_ho_neighbor on Sekki, Ghost Piñata

The deck is looking pretty tight, but I have some more thoughts on how to address your "pre-Sekki" concerns.

Farhaven Elf is a worse Wood Elves, but it's still ramp and an effective speed bump against and early attack.

Woodland Bellower isn't a bad inclusion since it can come down before Sekki and tutor up creatures like Tempting Licid, Ulvenwald Tracker, and Champion of Lambholt before Sekki comes down a turn or two later. You could also consider other creature tutors like Worldly Tutor and Green Sun's Zenith.

Thaumatic Compass  ^Flip isn't a ramp spell per-say, but it does guarantee your land drop for the turn and can turn into a better Maze of Ith to keep you alive until Sekki drops.

You could consider some of the cycling green lands like Tranquil Thicket as additional sources of card draw in the land slot. Play them as lands when you need them or just aggressively cycle them to dig deeper.

I also like Bushwhack as a fight spell/land grab.

As always, awesome deck!

Tur on Challenging Maarika

I believe that you're committing too much to your theme. There are too many cards which do the same thing. You should cut down on the instant/sorcery fight cards to maybe 5-6 cards (that is ~10% of the deck):

I suggest choosing some from these cards: Bite Down, Bushwhack, Cartouche of Strength, Chandra's Ignition, Fall of the Hammer, Go for Blood, Master's Rebuke, Nature's Way, Prey Upon, Prizefight, Tail Swipe, Ulvenwald Tracker

In my opinion, the best ones are: Bushwhack, Cartouche of Strength, Chandra's Ignition, Nature's Way, Prey Upon, Prizefight, Tail Swipe

Fight on a stick should be considered: Gruul Ragebeast or Kogla, the Titan Ape

Deathtouch to this theme is nice, but you're going to be doing 7 damage upon each fight. It's unlikely a creature will survive that fight. Therefore, you can cut back on deathtouch, that is Archetype of Finality, Bow of Nylea, Vorpal Sword, and Falthis, Shadowcat Familiar. Basilisk Collar is still good because of the lifelink. Saryth, the Viper's Fang is still good because of hexproof.

Furthermore, I would cut cards which deal damage based on how much Maarika receives. It will mostly be 3-5 damage. Such as, Fiendlash.

Because the commander is Voltron it needs many keyword abilities: haste, trample, and hexproof should be your bread and butter (no shroud for this deck). Enchantments or equipment which yield those keyword abilities are great.

There are a few Voltron related cards which I would suggest: Fiery Emancipation, Jeska, Thrice Reborn, and Hatred can one shot an opponent.

I hope this helps!

Brother's War Update:

Abundant Harvest ---> Bushwhack

Bushwack just does more of what I want. Finds lands for cheap or can make Omnath punch something into the Blind Eternities.

Omrah on Thran Vigil deck

Thran Vigil I was hoping to make a deck loosely based around this card.

Considered cards include Soul of Windgrace Tenacious Underdog Simian Simulacrum Soul Transfer Bushwhack Gaea's Gift Cult Conscript Sheoldred, the Apocalypse Gixian Puppeteer

Also considered turning it into a historic deck and adding it to the combo Cauldron Familiar and Witch's Oven

Nice deck! Seems really fun. The new card Bushwhack could maybe be good? Early game mana fixing and make everything you reanimate a kill later on.
