ClockworkSwordfish on Zoblins

3 years ago

I know it's a Modern deck, but I was still a little heartbroken to click on a deck named "Zoblins" and see that it wasn't built around Dralnu's Crusade.

Yeah, that's the other one I was thinking. I included it because a) all of the other amass stuff in there, and b) as with Demolish, most of the removal in this deck targets lands and creatures, with very little to deal with artifacts, planeswalkers or enchantments. However, one card out of 99 isn't going to make a huge dent as far as that goes anyway. So yes, Toll of the Invasion out, Dralnu's Crusade in!

Dralnu's Crusade

being in black gives you some older goblin synergies that would be very powerful.

Introducing Cabal Slaver and Earthblighter. There's a lord effect as well in Dralnu's Crusade

I like the fact that you are trying to keep you avg cmc low :)

If you'd like more help other than random suggestions, I would ask that you share your budget/card and a few insights on your meta; specifically how competitive it is, although I'm assuming it leans more to the casual side of things?

Livingham it exists: Sacred Cat. But it self exiles and only makes one token, so no beauno. Honestly they are two very different tribes with little crossover granted I used to play Entrails Feaster in my early days. It's too bad nothing like Dralnu's Crusade for cats exist....yet.

Dralnu's Crusade?

SO! Regarding artifacts:

I am leery of using cards like Veteran's Armaments, Sword of Vengeance, Fireshrieker, etc. because my army's strength is in its numbers. Those suggestion are indeed good (and cheap too! Mana and dollars) though. Anthem buffs like Goblin King, Goblin Chieftain, Mad Auntie, Goblin General, Coat of Arms, Obelisk of Urd, Door of Destinies, Shared Animosity, Eldrazi Monument, Dralnu's Crusade, Quest for the Goblin Lord, Konda's Banner, Berserkers' Onslaught, etc. are more appropriate, I think. Adding Trample is super-good though since I have a lot of creature effects that proc off of hitting a player. That's why I like Whispersilk Cloak and Trailblazer's Boots a lot.

Loxodon Warhammer is a good one though! It will give me the life I desperately need and add trample.

If I could afford a Sword of Fire and Ice or a Sword of Light and Shadow, Sword of Feast and Famine, Sword of War and Peace, it would be a different story. A Sword of the Meek might be interesting, but if I have a blanket +2/+2 or something do my tokens count as 1/1?

I think it will be better if I had a few defensive pieces of equipment like Swiftfoot Boots, Lightning Greaves, Whispersilk Cloak, Shield of Kaldra, Darksteel Plate, General's Kabuto, etc. to protect vital goblins like Wort, Boggart Auntie, Krenko, Mob Boss, Mad Auntie, etc.

Quietus Spike and something like Basilisk Collar would be pretty cool since I could kamikaze cheap goblins in. They also work wonderfully with Goblin Sharpshooter. Quietus Spike is cheaper than I remember.

Ashnod's Altar is perfect for this deck, I think. I thought it was on my Maybe list but I was wrong!

Lux Cannon is awesome!! I was going to run Argentum Armor, and Spine of Ish Sah to destroy enchantments and the like (as you well know it's tricky with black and red) but I think the Lux Cannon is better. I also have a Pyroblast in the mail and a Red Elemental Blast in my side deck but those are obviously situational.

Crayfish on What commander should I pilot …

8 years ago

Since I figured out the basics of commander, I have ended up with 5 diffrent commander decks.

Current Commander Decks Show

Ezuri, Claw of Progress: The C15 deck that I bought and edited to make more powerful. People don't like facing him. I steal their things. :3

Daxos of Meletis: My first EDH deck, its a straight to the point voltron deck where I gain a ton of life and steal your topdecks.

Savra, Queen of the Golari: Its a janky golgari EDH deck. Doesn't function well. Moving along.

Jor Kadeem, the Prevailer: Artifact Aggro. Pretty simple. Holds up... ok.

Jalira, Master Polymorphist: A janky yet competitive blue deck that turns creatures into other creatures. Its a lot of fun to pilot.

I have my 5 EDH decks, but I feel like I still have so many legends, and building/playing EDH is so much fun. So I have grabbed most of my legends, good and bad, and posted them here. I would like to know which one you all think should pilot my next EDH deck.

Note: I am trying to preserve as many of my non-edh decks as possible, since not everyone likes to play commander all the time.

The Legends Show

Sidisi, Undead Vizier: Mono-Black devotion/sac maybe? She is a reusable tutor though, which could be neat.

Erebos, God of the Dead: More mono-black devotion? A 5/7 body for 4 isn't bad, and the card advantage is nice in EDH. Could be fun.

Masako the Humorless: Seems more like a 99 card, but its a legend, so its up here. Idk what deck she would pilot to be honest.

Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker: I love this guy. Got him for free from a friend (original Kamigawa version too), and he is fun to mess with. A 2/2 body for CMC 5 is a bit... concerning... but some crazy shenanigans could go on with him, especially with all the red Undying cards.

Lazav, Dimir Mastermind: Good ol' Lazav. Icould see him at the helm of EDH mill, but is EDH mill really a good idea?

Mirko Vosk, Mind Drinker x2: Ditto Lazav.

Zurgo Bellstriker: Is he a good commander? Idk, dashing him for 1 each turn with a Hero's Blade seems nifty.

Dragonlord Kolaghan: Only here because its a legend. Seems like a pretty crappy commander to me. :P

Krenko, Mob Boss: GOBLINS EVERYWHERE! I love Krenko, though making a Krenko EDH would force me to dismantle one of my favorite casual decks, my Mono-Red Goblin Fun Time deck.

Ben-Ben, Akki Hermit: Seems like a better 99 card for Krenko than a commander, but who knows?

Lavinia of the Tenth: Meh. Detain is cool, but is it cool enough to boost her out of the 99? Probably not.

Skeleton Ship: This card is quite funky. -1/-1 EDH? I would need to purchase singles for that one.

Noyan Dar, Roil Shaper: My newest legendary, he seems like he could build a fun edh deck. GO MY PRECIOUS LANDS, ATTACK! Nothing like having every instant/sorcery animate a land for no additional cost.

Vorel of Hull Clade: Counters all the way home! I already have Ezuri though, so is he better as a 99 in ezuri or worth building a new deck to pilot?

Tymaret, the Murder King: Seems lackluster as a commander. I wouldn't know though, I don't have a huge scope on how each commander plays.

Marath, Will of the Wild: Got him in a card lot. He is a go-to commander. I might build with him anyways, because he is literally build for this format.

Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury: Dragon tribal aggro edh? Sounds like FUN!

Narset, Enlightened Master: Narset is nifty. I bet she would make a nifty commander deck.

Melek, Izzet Paragon: I hear he is good in EDH. Is he good in EDH? He seems good in EDH. Copy all them spells.

Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit: Another legend who seems more like a 99'er then a general. She could pilot a mono-white token/soldier deck though.

Medomai the Ageless: A cool sphinx who gives me extra turns. I don't know what deck he would pilot, but it could be cool.

Latulla, Keldon Overseer: Discard for straight damage. Not sure how well she would do as a general.

Jiwari, the Earth Aflame: Like Latualla, but without the discard clause.

Zurgo Helmsmasher x2: Zurgo wants to smash some face. He could be a fun aggro commander.

Alesha, Who Smiles at Death: Could be another fun aggro commander, or a 99'er in Zurgo.

Kira, Great Glass-Spinner: Seems like a powerful creature, put good enough for a general? Looks like another 99'er.

Grenzo, Dungeon Warden: Could be another goblin commander, and he opens up the possibility of black goblins cards, like Dralnu's Crusade. Same problem as Krenko though, I don't know if I want to take apart my goblin deck.

Arcanis the Omnipotent: Expensive, but gets me lotsa cards.

Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur: 10 MANA! Thats a lot, but he keeps my opponents hands empty while making sure I always have gas. Though, he could mill me if I'm not careful...

Ishi-Ishi, Akki Crackshot: His only upside is that he rides a goat. Thats it. Next!

Slobad, Goblin Tinkerer: Artifact funtime with Slobad! I do hope to get the C14 Daretti deck though, so Slobad would probably ride in the 99 there.

Kiku, Night's Flower: Interesting card, feels more like a 99'er than a general.

Glissa Sunseeker: Ditto Kiku.

Hythonia the Cruel: Cool card, though I own like 3 Gorgons total.

Anthousa, Setessan Hero: This card feels underwhelming. I bet in the right build though, this card could be nice, but when the lands are only 2/2's, the risk on creature based land destruction seems pretty high.

Prime Speaker Zeganna, Momir Vig, Simic Visionary, and Katseto, orochi archmage: All 3 are cool simic commanders, but they are also part of the 99 in my Ezuri deck.

Wow, thats a lot of legendaries that aren't currently commanders! What do you guys think? Which legends here are the most fun to build/pilot? I would love to know! :D
