Dread Presence

Creature — Nightmare

Whenever a Swamp enters the battlefield under your control, choose one —

  • You draw a card and you lose 1 life.
  • Dread Presence deals 2 damage to any target (creature, player or planeswalker) and you gain 2 life.

I like some of the combos here. I think you could use some field removal to take care of some more aggressive starts from your opponent and tokens. Besides Dread Presence, which can be a little slow take down a large amount of threats, you can try Mutilate or Black Sun's Zenith to take advantage of all the lands you'll be setting up. Even at four mana (assuming one isn't a Coffers) you can pretty reliably take care of anything that has 4 toughness and the limited number of creatures in your deck (3 of them intended to discarded) means your opponent stands to lose much more when you cast it. Lashwrithe can also serve as a decent big persistent finisher that you can move around in the late game. Hope this helps.

You're right about Dark Confidant; as I'm not drawing, it doesn't interact with Sheoldred. However, when Sheoldred is not out yet and I get this in turn 1 or 2, it's insanely good and has actually allowed me to win games. So for now, I'm going to accept its one downside and keep it in.

I've been wanting to collect a Master of the Feast for some time, but it is proving to be very difficult. None of the online vendors in my country has had one for some time; I've checked. Some of my friends have one, but they're not willing to trade it. Rest assured though, if I ever get one it's going to be added!

Dread Presence and Baleful Mastery are both nice, though I'm having a hard time thinking of cards to remove, as these are both not that instrumental to victory either.

Dark Confidant one of my favorites! But it is counter productive to this decks strategy. Perhaps Dread Presence or Master of the Feast could serve you better.

Baleful Mastery all upside, no drawback.

Introducing Cumly Cube 1.1! 6 months ago, Cumly Cube was launched to resounding approval. However, in response to feedback from fans, several cards in the pool were deemed unplayable, uninteresting, or overpowered. For Cumly Cube's six month anniversary, I have chosen to update the card pool. Here are the changes, provided with brief justifications:

REMOVED:

  • Abomination: too weak in power level
  • Anger of the Gods: while board wipes are an essential part of the game, this card is too simple in effect in comparison to other red board wipes in the card pool
  • Birthing Pod: synergizes poorly with the rest of the card pool
  • Black Dragon: too weak in power level
  • Black Lotus: this card and other "power 9" cards have been removed from the pool to allow players to play with less well known cards
  • Bloodcurdling Scream: too weak in power level
  • Cavalier of Night: too on-theme for a black card
  • Cinderclasm: while board wipes are an essential part of the game, this card is too simple in effect in comparison to other red board wipes in the card pool
  • Dack Fayden: too powerful
  • District Guide: synergizes poorly with the rest of the card pool
  • Dockside Extortionist: too strong in multiplayer games considering the dominance of the "treasure matters" archetype in this card pool
  • Dread Reaper: too weak in power level
  • Edric, Spymaster of Trest: too powerful
  • Eviscerator: too weak in power level
  • Grim Strider: too weak in power level
  • Hypnox: too weak in power level
  • Jungle Creeper: too weak in power level
  • Mind Bomb: too weak in power level
  • Mox Emerald: this card and other "power 9" cards have been removed from the pool to allow players to play with less well known cards
  • Mox Jet: this card and other "power 9" cards have been removed from the pool to allow players to play with less well known cards
  • Mox Pearl: this card and other "power 9" cards have been removed from the pool to allow players to play with less well known cards
  • Mox Ruby: this card and other "power 9" cards have been removed from the pool to allow players to play with less well known cards
  • Mox Sapphire: this card and other "power 9" cards have been removed from the pool to allow players to play with less well known cards
  • Nicol Bolas, the Deceiver: too weak in power level
  • Nix: too weak in power level
  • Obelisk of Alara: too weak in power level
  • Patagia Golem: too weak in power level
  • Phantasmagorian: too weak in power level
  • Prismite: too weak in power level
  • Rootcoil Creeper: synergizes poorly with the rest of the card pool
  • Shattering Blow: too strong of an answer to the artifact archetype
  • Shatterskull Smashing  Flip: MDFCs are interesting cards, but it does not make sense to have only one in the card pool
  • Smelt: too strong of an answer to the artifact archetype
  • Smog Elemental: too weak in power level
  • Spirit of the Night: too weak in power level
  • Storm Spirit: too weak in power level
  • Tibalt's Trickery: introduces too much variance for an enjoyable experience
  • Unholy Strength: too weak in power level
  • Vampiric Link: too on-theme for a black card
  • Wooded Bastion: this was included on error instead of its Golgari counterpart

Also, I'm thinking Sakura-Tribe Scout may be an improvement over Arboreal Grazer in this build, since you can ping at instant speed with Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle and Dread Presence for a form of interaction with your opponent's creatures if needed. It's also a reusable extra land per turn, although it isn't relevant the turn it is played.

Just something to consider.

My first attempt to make a Gitrog deck utilized Primeval Titan and some to abuse Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle but felt too clunky. Turning everything into mountains was way too dependent on having Dryad of the Ilysian Grove down so I feel more comfortable going hard on the Dread Presence+swamp synergy. Valakut Exploration actually looks very strong in this deck & would be my biggest motivator to splash if I did. I would feel fine replacing VE for Slogurk, the Overslime for my 3cmc slot but doesnt offer us any good T1 plays in replacement of Otherworldly Gaze. Also as I playtest more & more, I find Otherworldly Gaze to surprisingly good.

I'm probably going to replace Barren Moor with a Lotus Field as LF does serve as a great way to sac lands.
