Polukranos, Unchained

Legendary Creature — Zombie Hydra

Polukranos enters the battlefield with six +1/+1 counters on it. It escapes with twelve +1/+1 counters on it instead.

If damage would be dealt to Polukranos while it has a +1/+1 counter on it, prevent that damage and remove that many +1/+1 counters on it.

: Polukranos fights another target creature.

Escape—, Exile six other cards from your graveyard. (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its escape cost.)

Sick build,

Meren is my first and favorite commander deck I've ever owned so I have been working on mine since it came out.

So some really good additions I've used are:

Buried Alive+Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis+Golgari Grave-Troll+Polukranos, Unchained/Woe Strider

Also I've always loved Life from the Loam in this deck for its additional dredge and land reanimation. Powerful tutor target for Entomb

If you wanna bounce ideas or have suggestions/questions on my build id gladly take the feedback. Just comment on my Reaper build on my page.

In this kinda deck, lot of people really like Winding Constrictor, though maybe unnecessary with Hardened Scales. Pollenbright Druid and Karn's Bastion could be a good shout for multiplying counters, as could Solidarity of Heroes. Polukranos, Unchained would be cool, too, if you had the space - would probably recommend getting rid of the couple of two-ofs and making more three or four-ofs, for constistency's sake.

Or 3 mana or less threats. Again, not looking for anything that costs greater than that. This deck tries to win the game on turn 3 and on every turn after that. I don't even like going for 4 mana or greater cards if I can help it. They just end up sitting around as things I wish I had more mana to play, and just fun thoughts at the end of the day. Even things like Nissa of Shadowed Boughs and Polukranos, Unchained never ended up getting used when I had them on the side for a while. Same with Murderous Redcap, at the end of the day, which is the card that started it all.

Nice deck! Oran-Rief Ooze , Oran-Rief, the Vastwood and Polukranos, Unchained might be a good fit here.

Thought's on removal, possibly Abrupt Decay or Assassin's Trophy . For creatures consider Scavenging Ooze , Polukranos, Unchained and Rotting Regisaur .
