Balaam__ on It’s just Merfolk and Turtles

I have next to no Commander experience so I’m not sure whether the usual merfolk tricks will translate well coming from Legacy, Modern etc, but Merfolk really want to Islandwalk. It doesn’t necessarily pay dividends with the turtles, but stacking buffs from Merfolk Lords and combo’ing into Aquitect’s Will, Spreading Seas, Lingering Mirage etc will create a path for your fishfolk to get some damage done.

If you’re interested in the turtles getting equal privilege, there’s stuff like Fishliver Oil.

Ah yes, I do love a wonderful gimick. And so vast too! I can't believe I haven't thought of this before.

I have some land-based ramp for you! Annex technically does it. And there is a specific Russian (I think?) printing of Wayfarer's Bauble that you can use. The printing is a little obscure, but you can find it pretty easily on Scryfall.

Gift of Estates is land synergy.

Fishliver Oil is evasion.

Love the deck! Happy casting!

hi!

so first thing: your deck's not Modern legal. not that this should deter you, but basically some cards are printed in sets meant for other formats. if you're wedded to Modern, you'll have to make some substitutions. Counterspell instead of Mana Drain, for example.

that said, I'd encourage you to just call it a Casual deck. there's nothing wrong with it. you're not powergaming; for example, Fishliver Oil isn't a gamebreaking card by any means, but it's fun and whimsical. I don't think you're doing any harm to your playgroup by running the cards you're running here, even if a few like Rhystic Study are quite powerful!

is there a big payoff for cards like Temple of the False God and Spreading Seas? That Spreading Seas is a cantrip certainly works well with Nadir Kraken. But it seems to me you don't have any big "I want to sink a lot of mana here" cards in this build. consider substitutions if you're not particularly attached to them!

lastly, consider running snow lands and some fun cards like Icebreaker Kraken and Marit Lage's Slumber. they're good, fun cards, and they fit the flavor of your deck well.

good luck!

Hi,

that's quite an impressive list! A lot of artworks I didn't know of. But you also missed a few:

Aggression, Alexi, Zephyr Mage, Archangel of Strife, Azure Mage, Blood Cultist, Crossway Vampire, Deathless Angel, Elven Cache (6th edition), Fishliver Oil (9th edition), Game of Chaos (5th edition), Inkfathom Infiltrator, Jasmine Boreal, Juniper Order Advocate, Mortiphobia, Remembrance, Snuff Out (duel decks), Sylvan Ranger (M11), Tormented Angel, Vine Trellis, Vitalizing Cascade

Those are great suggestions. I am thinking what to drop/remove for those, though. Any thoughts?

Also, Merfolk Raiders and Fishliver Oil may be necessary.

Also, I just realized that your deck is 63 cards. I'd strongly recommend going down to 60 cards. I'd probably remove Fishliver Oil, Savage Silhouette, and Fleetfeather Cockatrice, plus whatever else you want to take out if you want to add some of the cards I suggested.
