Aegar and Kardur, Fiery Fiends {U}{B}{B}{R}

Legendary Creature - Giant Demon

Whenever a creature you don't control is dealt excess damage, goad it.

Whenever a goaded creature attacks one of your opponents, its controller loses 1 life and discards a card, and you gain 1 life and draw a card.

4/5

Create a creature with a Fling-like effect.

Also now realize that Fling can hit the face, while Bite Down can't! Another upside of Fling, more consideration now PremiumCola.....

Thanks PremiumCola!

I'd love to run Savage Beating, but the lack of haste for swinging with new dinos puts me off. Though I also feel like if you're playing savage beating, you're aiming to win that turn, so it's a good finisher, especially with how big the dinos can be.

Fling has a green almost equivalent, Bite Down which I've cut. However fling can't fizzle if the creature is removed, as it's part of the cost. Ups and downs.

Marshal's Anthem I'd definitely consider (with Fling), but the deck is leaning heavy green. Lots of fixing though, and white is the secondary colour so consideration indeed.

Cragganwick Cremator dumping Yargle and Multani seems like a fun jank way to close out games. Yargle is also legendary, so Goryo's Vengeance can grab him back for some massive surprise damage ^_^

Throw in Thud and Fling for the ultimate frogapult package.

PickleNutz on Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvale …

Hello,

I am currently interested in making a mostly competitive Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvale commander deck. I’m aware of staples such as Path to Exile and Sol Ring, so I’m not asking for card suggestions that are on the nose. I’m mostly looking for highly competitive card draw engines and equipment pieces.

I want to make this approximately a 7-8 turn board wide win and highly functioning deck. Combo pieces in mardu that work well with Syr Gwyn, lands that can impact play, and on theme creature suggestions are what I am after. My first idea was to create a cheerios style voltron deck to draw out huge numbers of cards and stack up Syr Gwyn for a board wide win.

Sol Ring

Chrome Mox

Mox Opal

Hammer of Nazahn

Helm of the Host

Paradise Mantle

Lightning Greaves

These are already on the brew list.

Ideas are to keep costs low, and find some multi-target options like Myriad or copies that can send my commander damage into multiple directions.

Thud

Grapeshot

Fling

These are options I’ve considered for final touches as a direct damage option with the commander.

Profet93 Thanks for the suggestion! The deal is that Chainer's Edict flashback becomes extremely relevant, I've been playing mono B for years and we never really had a strong card advantage engine so having singular cards that replace themselves or give card advantage becomes really fundamental, especially since this deck can really drag out games with all the removal, plus more removal late game can be really cluch since most decks now have singular chuncky boys as win cons (gone are the days of Atog + Fling thankfully). As for the life loss I 100% agree and I've always been against Snuff Out in mono B. However, now that turn 2 Tolarian Terror is a thing, having two Snuff Out in my experience does save some games since you don't have to wait for turn 4 to Cast Down it and hope they don't have a Counterspell or Spell Pierce. Before Tolarian Terror was meta, instead of Snuff Out I had the second Crypt Rats and Oubliette in the main and an Okiba-Gang Shinobi in the side. This would honestly be my favorite version, maybe when Tolarian Terror isn't so prevalent or if you don't play that much against it I would recommend these cards. Really appreciate that you like the deck!

KBK7101 solid picks for sure. I always appreciate the value of a well timed Sneak Attack to create two, maybe three deadly beaters and Thud or Fling at end of combat for extra-savory value.
