Liege of the Tangle

Creature — Elemental

Trample

Whenever Liege of the Tangle deals combat damage to a player, you may choose any number of target lands you control and put an awakening counter on each of them. Each of those lands is an 8/8 green Elemental creature for as long as it has an awakening counter on it. They're still lands.

Ah, yes, I should qualify it in a couple of ways. First, I don't have a group to play with, I have one friend who mostly builds Tier 4 decks, and I have to tailor mine to be strong in the 1v1 matchup. Second, we both are cool with proxies; I don't have all these cards but I do have a laser printer. ;)

I see the benefit of the going wide in the attack with Sylvan Awakening - I have Liege of the Tangle in the Maybeboard for similar ideas, and I think if I ended up playing multiplayer, I would make a shift like this.

Similarly with Kozilek, right off the bat, the "two target players" is diminished in my circumstance, but again, I see the go-wide strategy as strong in the multiplayer. I playtested your deck, and I was impressed at the (colorless) mana available quite early, it rivalled the heavy mana-dork ratio in my own deck!

The only must haves in precons are sol ring/signet/tower, and you already have those. Its more about what you like to play than what should be played once you have land search+mana fixing.

Buying singles is almost always cheaper and gets a better result overall.

Reasons not to to do singles - it can be hard to find awkward cards and get them shipped, and shipping costs can tilt things the other way if you need multiple senders.

You can load the deck into here with a copy paste like this to get an idea of the cards and prices.

The deep sea stuff has had a lot printed over the years. If you set CMC to >6 and ask for a blue creature, you'll see a lot of options from Octavia, Living Thesis to Aethersquall Ancient, its all fairly inexpensive and good for commander. There are some decent ones with hexproof/shroud/return to hand if you're tired of them getting hit by condemn and whatnot.

Lands wrath has a fairly solid spine to build on - its mostly search basic so adding islands is simple. You might want to flesh that out with more Cultivate effects and whatnot if you have trouble ramping, but thats about it.

Personally, I'd go for a spells and creature tokens landfall deck, grabbing stuff like Urban Evolution Eureka Moment, Growth Spiral and some creatures like Zimone, Quandrix Prodigy before grabbing bigger stuff like Guile or Liege of the Tangle. But I like drawing cards to make up for less big spells, and sometimes just more big cards does better.

I think the big issue your deck has at the moment, is that the creatures you’re getting out with the Boar or Breach only cost 6 mana, and so aren’t particularly threatening at all. There’s very little reason to cheat them out when you can just spend one extra mana to hardcast them anyway.

I would suggest considering better targets for Boar/Breach. Depending on your budget Worldspine Wurm and Liege of the Tangle both feel like good options

devin444: Thanks for the comment and this flurry of suggestions. I recently added Muse. It's a great card, and with Vivien, Champion of the Wilds and Yeva, Nature's Herald, I can basically have four turns per rotation. Seems pretty powerful.

Caller of the Pack and Liege of the Tangle seem interesting, but actually don't add all that much to the deck. The rest of your suggestions sure is powerful, but those price tags don't sit right with me. Thank you very much, still. I'm always thank ful for having to consider new cards. Btw, you inspired me to consider Chatterstorm and Hunting Pack. The deck often playes like a storm deck anyways, so those two could be stellar, but maybe a little win-more.

This is a really cool deck that I think capitalizes on a cute interaction with mutate!

If the goal is to avoid killing your own creatures with Sarulf's trigger, I'd add move ways to animate lands. Budget ways to do this would be awaken and pseudo-awaken spells like Earthen Arms, Awakening of Vitu-Ghazi, and Liege of the Tangle or more temporary effects like Sylvan Awakening. Hissing Quagmire is a bit expensive, but you seem to have a little wiggle room and would also go great in here. I'd definitely add a Darksteel Citadel if you can fit it in your budget, so that way you have an indestructible permanent you can animate and mutate onto.

Thanks for sharing the deck!
