Roaming Throne
Artifact Creature — Golem
Ward (Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays .)
As Roaming Throne enters the battlefield, choose a creature type.
Roaming Throne is the chosen type in addition to its other types.
If a triggered ability of another creature you control of the chosen type triggers, it triggers an additional time.

Blue Changeling Shrines
1 month ago
Unfortunately, some cards don't work the way you expect because "Shrine" is an enchantment type, not creature type. Your commander Go-Shintai of Lost Wisdom and other Shrines have no creature type
Therefore:
- Maskwood Nexus and Amoeboid Changeling can't make something into a "Shrine"
- You can't choose "Shrine" for Adaptive Automaton
or Roaming Throne - Changelings aren't Shrines

Counter Intuitive (Arwen)

I'll do my best; I haven't played Green/White together as much as I used to, especially stuff that's more focused on life gain. If you're interested in some suggestions for life gain and Green/White adjacent strats, I'd tap in with Tsukimi; they love Bant.
-
One thing that I noticed is that you seem a bit split on life gain and +1/+1 counter support. Based on your description, it sounds like you're more interested in the counter support to send counters around. For this reason, I think that maybe cutting out most or some of the life gain support could focus those slots a bit more. Focusing in on a primary strategy could help alleviate some of that clunkiness.
-
Since Marwen gets her Indestructible counters when she ETBs, maybe a small Blink package of Ephemerate, Eerie Interlude, & Semester's End could be added to facilitate that.
-
I'd recommend checking out Grasp of Fate as a potential swap with Banishing Light. For EDH, I like to have a mix of non-board wipe/multi-target removal to supplement the wipes & single target stuff when possible. They're not Elves, but Druid of Purification and Bronzebeak Foragers are also solid options in that vein.
-
Since Elves tend to crap out bodies, Aura Shards is another great repeatable removal option for a deck like this.
-
Idk if you have a specific budget in mind, but I'd recommend checking out Kodama of the West Tree and Roaming Throne as strong good stuff support pieces.
I know you mostly dabble with Modern, but I'm not sure if you've heard of or used EDHRec before? It's a helpful starting point to see what are some commonly utilized cards for various deck archetypes for each commander.

Be'lakor, Blade of the Seraph

You're welcome Vessiliana! Completely understand your reasoning concerning Contract. With regards to Devourer, I kinda understand it too, though I should point out that it's quite likely that he hits the battlefield much earlier than Be'lakor, because of the required mana cost of the latter.
Regarding the more expensive stuff, I was going to bring up cards like Archfiend of Despair/Bloodletter of Aclazotz (both have insane damage potential), Roaming Throne (which is massively beneficial in almost any tribal deck), Valgavoth, Terror Eater (super strong with an excellent theft ability) and Urza's Incubator (another way to make demon-summoning a lot cheaper).

what do you think about Roaming Throne and Broadside Bombardiers?

Gishath Spared No Expense!!!

Ah! You're right about that Roaming Throne! I missed that. Sorry for the wasted suggestion. Interesting philosophy regarding your commander getting combat damage - instead of trying to sneak by, you just hit them harder. Well i'm glad you're considering Finale of Devastation as it fits this ethos quite nicely. I do wonder about your deck's consistency though - have you ever found yourself needing to tutor for creatures? I see you're considering Worldly Tutor, what about Sylvan Tutor? Both place creatures on top of your library, so it synchronizes perfectly with your Commander's triggers. What maybe more ramp? There's Kodama's Reach, the sibling to Cultivate that you could also include.
Now lastly, this suggestion is very expensive - but why settle for Three Tree City when you could go for Gaea's Cradle? Gishath Spared No Expense, so why should you? Just hear me out - this card is indeed a game changer, and a very splashy one. You don't have purchase it, as you can proxy. But if that's not your style, I won't slight you. On the other hand if you have a full trade binder with some pricey goodies you could go to an LGS you trust and work out a deal. I've done something like this before and it's worked out for me. But again, this is a very subjective thing. If that doesn't seem appealing, you could also try Growing Rites of Itlimoc Flip. It can help you get another creature in hand/filter the top of your library. What're your thoughts?

Gishath Spared No Expense!!!
2 months ago
Mortlocke - I did not respond to your card suggestions in my initial response but have more time now to do so. You are correct that a 7/6 is not always the biggest threat out on the field but that is the beauty of most commander games, there are three opponents and I only need to hit one of them to trigger Gishath and rain down those beautiful dinos! So generally I have found at least in my play circles that extra evasion is not as helpful/needed as doubling down on Gishath with cards like The Skullspore Nexus, Goring Ceratops, Sunhome, Fortress of the Legion, etc. But I do agree the cards you suggested are clutch and I do run those often in decks. I just omitted them from this deck based on my experience piloting the deck. I do have Roaming Throne in the decklist, it is under the "support creatures" as it tehcnically is not a dinosaur until it enters the field so Gishath can not cheat it out. However, that double triggered abilities effect is wicked good! I could also add in Three Tree City as I have a few copies of that now since the last time I played this deck...between new cards and new cards to my inventory, the fun never ends on the small tweaks to the deck as you are likely very aware!

Gishath Spared No Expense!!!

I'm always a fan of Dinosaur decks and am always happy to offer my critique to try and help the deck builder's vision. I don't see any of the current Gamechangers in your list so I must ask - why do you think your deck is a bracket 4 deck? Does it fare well against Stax and Combo archetypes? Does it consistently threaten to kill a player off/establish a threatening board between turns 5 and 8? I'm not trying to say this in a mean way or anything, mostly just curious as to what kind of decks you want this list to be facing off against.
I would suggest the inclusion of some evasion for your Commander. Given the high variance of the format there will be times when Gishath won't be the biggest creature on the battlefield, and therefore won't be allowed to deal combat damage. Including old favorites such as Rogue's Passage or Whispersilk Cloak will guarantee damage and ideally more dinosaurs on your field. On that note, have you considered the relatively new Roaming Throne? It's a great option for doubling your Commander's ability triggers.
You have a cool deck, and I'd love to hear more about your games and victories. I also have my own dinosaur deck. Check it out, give it a +1 if you would feel so inclined:
The Predator of Predators
Commander / EDH
SCORE: 397 | 120 COMMENTS | 49504 VIEWS | IN 162 FOLDERS
I'm curious if you have a special dino playmat, or maybe a special deckbox to house your deck? I recently put in a commission for a deck box for my Dinos and it turned out crazy awesome. Check my deck page for more on that :)

Say I have Brenard, Ginger Sculptor and Roaming Throne (with Artificer as the chosen type) out on the field and another creature dies. Would Roaming Throne trigger Brenard, Ginger Sculptor again?
I have a feeling it wouldn’t because I would only have the one card to exile to complete the initial trigger and can’t do a second time.
