Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation
Legendary Creature — God
Vigilance (Attacking doesn't cause this creature to tap.)
If one or more creature tokens would be created under your control, three times that many of those tokens are created instead.
When this dies ,return this to the battlefield transformed under the control of this creature's owner.

Surprised I don’t see Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip or Exalted Sunborn in the deck.

The Glory of the Horde (Zurgo Ultra-Budget)
1 week ago
Just taking a break from my studies (I'm done Friday!) to give initial thoughts...
First, good work getting the Mana Curve down. I prefer a 2-3 average CMC for my decks so this is gorgeous!
I will say I prefer Martial Coup over Forth Eorlingas! simply because Martial wipes the board if X is greater than 5. Forth's only benefit is making you the Monarch, but I don't see much reason in here to become the Monarch, and making 2/2s instead of 1/1s, but in a Zurgo shell your goal should be numbers. In fact Martial Coup is cheaper than Forth Eorlingas!, so if you're looking for budget, maybe give it a look.
I'm normally not huge on Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon, but in your shell I think it'll work. Just keep an eye on it to be sure it's pulling its weight. Every deck has at least one card to "keep an eye on." In my Zurgo deck, it's Crackling Doom and Indebted Spirit.
If you can make room for it, I'd go for an Exalted Sunborn. Better options are Anointed Procession and Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip, but those are $40-$60 a piece if you don't wanna proxy. Exalted Sunborn, though, is $12 and essentially Anointed Procession on a stick with a Warp cost that's the same as Anointed, so I'd look at that for doubling tokens.
I also prefer Fanatical Devotion over Reconnaissance simply because it's another sac outlet. It's also cheaper (.77 vs $3-$5).
I would also personally swap Woe Strider or Phyrexian Plaguelord (honestly probably the Plaguelord due to its mana cost) for Ashnod's Altar. One sac gives you 2 colorless that can be pumped into X spells or larger creatures.
My last cut would be Thunder of Unity. There are a lot of much more impactful enchantments than this one.
Honestly man this looks fairly solid for a budget precon upgrade! You've even introduced me to a few cards I can use (like Mardu Devotee). I'm impressed. This is MUCH better than what you had before. I can see an actual strategy brewing. I'd just add a few more sac outlets more than anything, as well as any way to increase token output. Good stuff!

This deck looks like so much fun. So many opportunities to overwhelm and frustrate an opponent, I love it! If I played this deck I'd probably go for Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip as commander but that's simply because I have a soft spot for Ixalan themed things. I hope you're finding the deck fun to play with!

Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip is a little over $20, but is really good in... well... any token deck that includes white.

Probably outside your budget but if you want to upgrade you should totally get Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip or Mondrak, Glory Dominus as they are both practically custom made for this kind of deck. Moonshaker Cavalry would also be a fantastic wincon and it's much cheaper at only $10.
Since you're probably only ever reanimating hares Dewdrop Cure is great because it can get you 3 for 3 mana.

I made a Myrel deck, I took him more control than soldiers, though. Still, neat! You probably want Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip, Anointed Procession, or, as NV_1980 said above, Mondrak, Glory Dominus.

Why?
I would consider this update the final trimming of the really fatty parts of this deck. The main goal here was to remove some cards that only semi-synergized with the deck and to replace them with cards that really shine light on where this deck succeeds. These changes massively upgrade the token generation capability and the payoff for having them. The cards removed from here were in no ways bad cards, they just didn't quite see eye-to-eye with what the deck should be doing: Generating tokens and being very aggressive, punishing a lack of removal and interaction while also being resilient to creature board wipes. The legion always has more bodies to throw at the problem. See notes on each removal/addition and my thought process for doing so below:
General Kudro of Drannith: Kudro is a very interesting choice, but has 2 big downsides: He requires sacrificing of humans and is restricted to only dealing with creatures with power 4 or greater. This deck doesn't generate enough human tokens to justify using the second ability, especially since I'm limited to only targeting creatures with power 4 or greater. Often threats appear in the form of artifacts, enchantments or weenies that can deny my board and unfortunately, Kudro isn't equipped to handle these.
Lethal Scheme: Probably the worst card of the bunch. At best it's 0 mana to destroy 1 creature/planeswalker, at worst it's 4 mana to destroy 1 creature/planeswalker. Not great removal, and I have plenty of other removal spells
Fervent Charge: The ideal situation is to not have to rely on attack damage to kill my opponents, it's more about the attack triggers here. I think Mirror entity is just a much better/cheaper version of this card if I'm trying to win off of attack damage. It also provides no other value past +2/+2 to only attacking creatures
Commander's Sphere: I'm not starving for card draw, especially with the One Ring, and the extra mana rock is fine, but a nice to have more than anything.
Skullclamp: Similar to Command Sphere, the card draw is nice, but often my tokens end up being used for attacking or attack triggers and quickly build up past 1/1s, so Skullclamp becomes useless. Ashnod's Alter provides much more value than Skullclamp especially when combined with X-cost spells.
Queen Marchesa: She's pretty threatening just because she has Deathtouch and haste, Monarch is also a huge plus, but the last part of the card is way too slow. Generating 1 token with deathtouch per turn just isn't worth passing monarch back and forth between players, and once she's gone, all I am left with is Monarch, her having deathtouch incintivises me to use her to kill a big threat, but her 2rd ability incintivises me to keep her alive, which conflicts with Deathtouch/Haste.
Teysa Karlov: There's like no death triggers in this deck, only sacrifice triggers, and honestly I don't want to build into benefiting off of death triggers, so her first ability provides essentially nothing. Her second ability is a huge up side, but she never stuck around long enough to really use it, and other cards provide me vigilance.
Craig Boone, Novac Guard: Boone essentailly reads "Target player takes X damage where X is the number of Quest Counters on him", he's a cool card, but any good player would take face damage over having their important card be killed. The life gain and reach were big incintives to keeping him in the deck, but he's too slow and doesn't synergize enough with the rest of the deck.
Diabolic Tutor: Worse Demonic Tutor
The Nipton Lottery: I love this card. It's so chaotic and leans into my gambling addiction, but overall, Austere Command is the better boardwipe
Rabble Rousing: Great enchantment to really pump out the tokens, pretty similar to Horn of Gondor and also is less punishing to my board when blocks happen. Ensures I will always be replacing any blocked tokens.
Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip: Triple the tokens = triple the fun. Gives me more options than Annointed Processon
Goblin Bombardment: Need to push some extra damage/kill a target? We have tons of tokens to do so. Start killing the tokens generated and hit face. Darien + Goblin Bombardment + Bastion of Rememberance = win condition. In fact, Darien + Goblin Bombardment is a pretty nasty way to generate tokens if I start pinging myself for 1 damage and have a Annointed Processon/Ojer Taq on board. Super flexible card when attacking isn't an option
Impact Tremors: We're generating all these tokens, let's get another purphoros adjacent card in the deck to do some real damage more consistently
Ashnod's Altar: When combined with an X-cost spell like Grand Crescendo, or Secure the Wastes, you can double the amount of tokens you have out already
Darien, King of Kjeldor: Punishes hitting my face as well as just an overall good combo enabler.
Greymond, Avacyn's Stalwart: Probably the best human tribal card in Magic, while he doesn't enable alot of my tokens, he gives all my humans insane amounts of value. Since almost all of my creatures spells are human, I think he will be a huge boon.
Mirror Entity: This card is super versatile. I can use it to pump my tokens, avoid board wipes like Austere Command and Meathook Massacre, but it can also be used to turn my tokens into humans/soldiers for cards like Greymond, Horn of Gondor, Myrel, ect.... I have a feeling this card will be a great enabler.
Austere Command: Selective Boardwipe, what's more to say?
Demonic Tutor: Better Diabolic Tutor
Mark1974 on Zinnia and Warleader's Call in …
1 year ago
So I had Zinnia, Valley's Voice and a Warleader's Call in play, and then I played Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation Flip for which I used Zinnia's Offspring ability by paying two more...
I ended up with one Ojer Taq, and did 4 damage to all my opponents... We were in doubt if there should not be there Temple of Civilization copies because of double-sided rule changes?
In truth, I have no clue how the mechanics work in this scenario... so... help please?
