Peer into the Abyss

Sorcery

Target player draws cards equal to half the number of cards in their library and loses half their life. Round up each time.

YES WE FINALLY GET A GREAT ZOMBIE COMMANDERRRRR. Casts Peer into the Abyss, swings for +43/+43 lol...

These are, in my opinion, the top ten most toxic commanders to play against. The ones where you get teamed up on more than the guy with the turn one sol ring.

Atraxa, Praetors' Voice. Infect infect infect infect. Also gets toxic points for being an infect commander.

Koma, Cosmos Serpent.

If they have any kind of token doubler or nonlegendary cloner, you might as well skip your untap step. Once my friend had an Essix, Fractal Bloom out with a Mirror Box.

Numot the Devestator Land destruction. Need I say more?

Tergrid, God of Fright  Flip.

Nobody cares about the lantern. Everybody cares about their creatures going up for adoption.

Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker

Goes infinite with a ham sandwich. Pray WOTC never makes a blue version of it.

The Beamtown Bullies I’m guilty of playing with this deck. Who new there were so many cards with very big downsides. *cough cough Leveler

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

Do you want people to play with you?

Maha, Its Feathers Night

Kaervek, the Spiteful, Night of Souls' Betrayal, and the million other cards that give all creatures -1/-1 until end of turn exist.

All the Phyrexian praetors (but mostly Sheoldred, the Apocalypse)

Card draw is good in commander. Sheoldred deals damage to your opponents when they draw cards. Plus,Peer into the Abyss either instakills an opponent or gives you 30 life and 40 cards.

Nekusar, the Mindrazer

Just like sheoldred, but you get access to red for wheels and handsize burn spells, and blue for being blue.

*honarable mention to The Infamous Cruelclaw decks that play 99 lands and Worldfire.

TheForsakenOne Thank you.

I removed Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath and Gonti's Machinations, and added back in Peer into the Abyss, good suggestions. Made a fair amount of changes as well, mostly to help ramp mana and lands.

I'd replace one of the Soul Warden effects with Guide of Souls, since it's got a better statline and gives you energy that can be turned into +1/+1 counters and flying. Sure it doesn't do any creature like they do but I think the tradeoff is worth it.

Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath is just bad. It's too much mana for not enough impact and there are just better things you could be doing. And Gonti's Machinations just doesn't do enough despite its low mana investment. I'd recommend cutting them both for more ramp, you've got a lot of 4 drops that you'd love to get out a turn earlier.

Peer into the Abyss should definitely be added in from the maybeboard. With your commander out you're going to gain a shit ton of life and kill multiple players. If you add more ramp like my earlier suggestion then it'll be a lot more feasible to hit that 7 mana number.

Bookrook I was avoiding it specifically as I wanted the focus in this deck to be around Peer into the Abyss. Much easier to cast vs 12 mana Enter the Infinite. I do have a deck centered around Enter the Infinite, however. Take a peak :)

If you are looking at getting a "good rate" of turning resources into cards you may want to start looking at ways of turning life into cards, since you have a lot of incidental life gain.

Enchantments like:

Greed Necrodominance Unfulfilled Desires Phyrexian Etchings Yawgmoth's Bargain Nihilistic Glee Lunar Convocation

Are repeatable ways to turn life into cards.

Cards like:

Cut of the Profits Eldritch Pact Peer into the Abyss Sanguimancy Pain's Reward

Will give you a big hit of cards for life.

Hi Profet93, for the combos I have Peer into the Abyss and my: Sheoldred, the Apocalypse, Bloodletter of Aclazotz, i got Exquisite Blood and my : Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose, Sanguine Bond and finally i have Peer into the Abyss and Bloodletter of Aclazotz. And i am mainly looking for tips to boots competitiveness! :)

Several of these definitely fit into the budget problem lol. As much as I'd love a top or Hatred I need to either find someone to trade with or pull it myself. And I'm not opening many packs of Exodus. Looks like a good include if I could get my hands on it though.

Peer into the Abyss was a card I was waffling back and forth on including. I thought It might be a little too much life loss, but that was before I pulled Sheoldred, the Apocalypse, definitely looking to include it now, didn't think about the combo Potential.

And in general I don't like running combo pieces that aren't useful outside of a combo. Leshrac's Sigil is definitely in that category, If I have a combo I'd rather it flow more naturally with the deck

I suppose I'm at the hardest stage of deckbuilding. Figuring out what to cut and actually getting the funds for all these great cards. Thanks for the suggestions
