Notorious Throng

Kindred Sorcery — Rogue

Prowl (You may cast this for its prowl cost if you dealt combat damage to a player this turn with a Rogue.)

Create X 1/1 black Faerie Rogue creature tokens with flying, where X is the damage dealt to your opponents this turn. If Notorious Throng's prowl cost was paid, take an extra turn after this one.

Minor changes include:

Snow-Covered Mountain -> Flamekin Village (Hasty dragons are nice, but this can also be political)

Fiery Inscription -> Worldfire (Fiery Inscription is excellent, but makes it almost too easy. Going add alt win, Worldfire + Spellweaver Helix combo)

Notorious Throng -> Spellweaver Helix (Tokens are nice, but this is more on theme and goes toward the Worldfire + Spellweaver Helix combo)

Levyous I love Notorious Throng! It's an awesome tempo card that fits in well with this deck. If you don't happen to have protection up and Alela is removed, just attack with her Faerie Rogues, take another turn, create more tokens, then attack again. It's a great way to recover or speed ahead. I still rotate it in just like I do with Bolas's Citadel.

This deck is getting better but I'm still figuring it out.

What are you thoughts on the addition of Notorious Throng to this deck? The card has always put in work for me before, and the rogue activation should be pretty easy.

Lokotor on Marchesa, The Black Rose - Primer

dlombart I am mainly using Moxfield these days for deckbuilding, but I do keep this list updated here since a lot of people still use it.

I think Bitterblossom would be a good option if you are leaning more heavily into the rogue theme. As it stands I have ~2 cards that care about rogues and that's not quite enough I think for it to matter that much, so I'd consider it more in a vacuum, and at that point I've always thought of the card as being mostly just "Okay".

1 life and a 1/1 flier every turn is the kind of slow value we are generally looking for, and early game, or when Marchesa isn't out, it can be useful as a source of disposable sacrifice fodder. But since it's a pretty slow card, later in the game you're unlikely to get that much value from it. Especially where you usually have your engines built anyway.

Ultimately I've been thinking leaning into the rogue subtheme isn't the way to go as far as optimization, but I've just got a soft spot for the strategy for whatever reason.

The good news is that Gonti, Lord of Luxury and Faerie Mastermind are testing pretty well (though I am likely going to kick mastermind to another deck of mine), so the strategy isn't wholly without merit. I might give BB a shot if I push more in that direction, but it's just missing a few pieces still i think.

As of now, the only real payoffs I've seen are Mari, the Killing Quill and Prosperous Thief, with the latter not being that great really. There are a couple lords and some marginal payoff cards like Notorious Throng that are perhaps playable, but require a bit more commitment than I think they deserve.

Mari has the upside of being one sided grave hate (and even with nothing else going on that's pretty valuable) and she is self enabling, so even without much support it at least sort of works. Also, since she has deathtouch, she is relatively nice to have out as an attacker or blocker. overall, I find that she's a good enough card to play without supporting cards, but having a few pieces like Bitterblossom, Gonti, Faerie Mastermind, and Dauthi Voidwalker generally is just gravy on top.

Overall, that's a long way of saying Bitterblossom is reasonable to include in your list, especially with cards like Mari, the Killing Quill and Oona's Blackguard hanging around. I'd give it a shot sometime and see how it plays.

I mean you could just make it pauper with a Notorious Throng and call it a day. A 1/1 for 1 unblockable shouldn't pose that large of an issue if you're not snowballing with a ton of extra turns; like I understand wanting to downgrade to play at lower power but Edric isn't a great commander to make that pivot with.

Talozard on Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph

Hello! I've been playing Ghyrson as an aggro deck, too, and it's an absolute blast (surprisingly explosive). Love that you included Notorious Throng! It's a real powerhouse in here that I don't see included often.

My list is similar to yours, but I go all in on the tokens going wide strat instead of the Edric style: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/e5KjgYTd_kygyO_V0saUrg

Some other hidden gems that have worked wonders for me that look like they'd feel right at home in your list are Zurzoth, Chaos Rider and Irenicus's Vile Duplication. The devils really get out of hand quickly and being able to copy Ghyrson is just insanity (you can even copy the copy)!

Epicurus on Hired Mercenaries

Love the deck, and I appreciate that it leans toward aggro rather than mill. I have a similar Anowan deck, but mine focuses on stealing creatures from graveyards.

Cards to consider:

Just to name a few.

Cheers!
