Crow-Umbra on Salty Commanders!

1 week ago

grumbledore, yes exactly! Basically any effects like Light Up the Stage, Prosper, Tome-Bound (everyone's favorite non-Simic, Simic commander), Neyali, Suns' Vanguard, Jeska's Will, etc.

Red still has plenty of its Faithless Looting effects for draw, but it definitely seems like the impulse/exile draw is the new design space they've been pushing over the past couple of years.

Lastly, is there any way to be a bit more discerning regarding combo pieces? I've noticed quite a few decks will have combo scores even if they only have 1 piece of a combo, but not the rest. In the combo section some of those decks will list the complete combo, and get scored for it, even if the other piece(s) aren't in the deck. I understand that may be challenging to pull off, but just thought I'd put it on your radar.

Thank you again for putting this tool together!

For global haste you can use Fires of Yavimaya, Concordant Crossroads, Mass Hysteria, and Urabrask the Hidden who will also conveniently turn off other people's haste. Anger and Barbarian Class also give haste after more effort.

Ant Queen, Artifact Mutation, Battle Hymn, Circle of Dreams Druid, Dragon Broodmother, Pest Infestation, Scute Swarm, Tempt with Vengeance, Sylvan Offering, Termagant Swarm are all useful if you can give haste to all of them.

Birds of Paradise is just the best mana dork.

You have green, so you might as well use the standard ramp package with Cultivate , Kodama's Reach, Explore , Farseek, , Rampant Growth, Three Visits and Nature's Lore. Probably ignore most mana rocks, because people are going to want to vandalblast you just because of the treasures.

Relentless Assault, Scourge of the Throne, Combat Celebrant, Hexplate Wallbreaker, World at War grant extra combats, with Hellkite Charger and Aggravated Assault potentially going infinite.

Vandalblast goes in every red deck. Even though youll have a ton of treasures i'd still run Brotherhood's End too

For draw spells consider Scroll Rack, Garruk's Uprising, Elemental Bond, Soul's Majesty, Furious Rise, Rishkar's Expertise, Beast Whisperer, Shamanic Revelation, Disciple of Bolas, Pact of the Serpent, Painful Truths, Harmonize, Sign in Blood, Night's Whisper, Read the Bones, Ambition's Cost, Ancient Craving, Damnable Pact, Commune with Lava, Lifeblood Hydra, or maybe Necropotence although the color restricion on necro is tough, treasures should take care of it.

Fable of the Mirror-Breaker  Flip, Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer , The Reaver Cleaver , Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge , Ancient Copper Dragon , Old Gnawbone Ziatora, the Incinerator for more treasure makers. Pyrohemia and Pestilence could be fun with the extra mana. Awaken the Woods is an amazing x spell too, but wont appreciate the two aforementioned cards.

If you're using magda the deck will benefit from dragons and expensive artifacts. throw in Imperial Recruiter and Worldly Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, and Demonic Tutor all go in your colors. so you can get her more consistently. Darksteel Forge and Gate to Phyrexia can be tutored into play with her for five treasure.

If you use dragons, you could add Dragonstorm, but you should carefully consider how many cheap spells you expect to be able to cast if you arent building specifically towards this card. Chatterstorm, Empty the Warrens, Yawgmoth's Will, Jeska's Will, Mana Geyser, and Manamorphose, Past in Flames are all good on their own and would add synergy.

If it ends up dragon tribal, cards like Crippling Fear , Kindred Dominance, Crux of Fate

Swashbuckler Extraordinaire is a very good payoff for using treasures if you dont use certain other nightmarish dragons like Atarka, World Render, Blast-Furnace Hellkite, Terror of Mount Velus, Thrakkus the Butcher

NV_1980 on Who Else But Krenko!

First, some general comments.

In its current form, your deck has only a few ramp cards. This is a bit of an issue if you want to have enough resources available (from early-game onwards) for casting spells. Red has few options for ramp, of which you've already included some. Other interesting cards could be stuff like Battle Hymn, Seething Song and especially Skirk Prospector. More expensive ramp options include cards like Dockside Extortionist, Jeska's Will and Mana Echoes.

Aside from red ramping options, there are also many artifacts resources for this. Good options include Arcane Signet, Fire Diamond, Gauntlet of Power, Mind Stone, Nyx Lotus and Sol Ring. There are also more expensive options if you really want to go to town: Chrome Mox, Jeweled Lotus and Mox Opal.

Currently your deck hardly contains card-advantage options (draw, tutoring, filtering, etc.). Of course, red has some options for this. Cathartic Reunion, Faithless Looting, Gamble, Thrill of Possibility, Tormenting Voice and Valakut Awakening  Flip. Artifacts can help you on this front as well. Endless Atlas and Mind's Eye come to mind, as well as the more expensive stuff like Scroll Rack and Sensei's Divining Top.

Now, with regard to Krenko himself.

He's an exceptionally powerful commander that your opponents are going to try and get rid off for sure. He needs some protection. Lightning Greaves/Swiftfoot Boots are therefore highly recommended. Stuff that gives him protection/indestructible also works. Next, I would expect that if you could, you would use his ability more than once per turn, should you be able to. There are many artifacts out there that allow you to untap Krenko, so that you can use him again during the same turn. Options include but are not limited to Puppet Strings, Staff of Domination, Sword of the Paruns, Thornbite Staff, Thousand-Year Elixir, Umbral Mantle.

Hope this helped.

king-saproling on Count the Bells, Heed the Chimes

Yep LED works nicely here since you can sack it after casting a wheel but before the wheel resolves, or before a string of Sphinx activations resolve. (you probs already knew that but LED is so weird, figured i'd explain just in case)

Mastery could potentially replace Thoracle + Ephemerate. That'd prevent you from hitting Thoracle off The Bridge first which could speed up your game plan by a turn. Since Mastery is red you could run red rituals (Seething Song, Jeska's Will, Mana Geyser, Rite of Flame, Desperate Ritual, Pyretic Ritual) to pay for it, and having just 1 creature in the deck means you could swap out your creature tutors for more mana fixing or rituals.

Example in my main cedh deck I can technically get a turn one win very hard but very possible I can flub but the magical Christmas land. Land that produces red Mana Crypt + Jeska's Will + Underworld Breach + Grinding Station but it has a chance to get me there yes I would keep that hand

PickleNutz on Prosperity or Cut a Deal?

Cut a Deal limits opponents draw while increasing yours based on each opponent. In commander, opponents drawing cards can set them up with a win. Where prosperity does well is in a rare instance where Jeska's Will is in hand and you can combo.
