Skylasher

Creature — Insect

Skylasher can't be countered.

Ha, yep : ) I mean, in every other way than "being a magic card" Bear Cub is strictly better than Skylasher. Art, better, flavor, way better, cuteness, so much, and being a bear, yep that too. But yeah, sometimes things do feel kinda pushed. When I played against a friend with a Questing Beast in their deck, they'd often forget about abilities. I feel like that's when there may be too many on a card : )

Also, sidenote, but Descendants' Path seems amazing in this deck. I love that you don't bears to just bears, you bears to effectively bears!

Niko9 it's just such a good card; can't find one bad thing about it! I put Skylasher in a different deck and thought it was just way too much!

Clan of Bloodbraided 2

Legendary Enchantment-MR

Creatures you control gain +2/0 and trample

Whenever you creature you control destroys a creatures it gains a +1/+1 counter and than cascades

: Target creature you control fights another creature or planeswalker you don't control (Planeswalker power and toughness are equal to their loyalty)

This is for a Kresh the Bloodbraided Precon. It takes inspiration from both Kresh himself and Bloodbraid Elf in that thier clan gets stronger by killing (Kresh) and can cascade (Elf) but they have to kill other creatures to gain both. This helps Kresh in two ways make your creatures bigger so when they die he get more counters and cascade can add more creatures giving him more bodies and fuel

Using the flavor texts from these cards Burn Bright, Ghor-Clan Rampager, Gruul War Chant, Skylasher make creature called Kroshkar, Gruul Shamen (the flavor text is to help you if need it)

Grist do be carrying tho. I don't know how I've never heard of Skylasher before, it looks like Cloudthresher 's little brother.

I know it might change the direction of the deck a lot, but have you considered turning this into a more Sultai control-type list with Delver  Flip and Thiccy Delver  Flip (and dropping CoCo)?

Also, some other cool insects are Brain Maggot (this thing is OP in my pioneer eldrazi processors), and maybe Foundry Hornet for a sweeper (4 cmc though so only if you decide to drop CoCo, and I guess if you drop coco you will probably also drop a lot of the +1/+1 counter cards so maybe not). Hornet Nest is hella funny but idk if it'll work here. Kraul Harpooner might be worth testing?

My all-time favorite insect is Vorapede , hands down, so it's a shame it probably won't work well in this deck.

Eh....

Actually, let's try:

Canopy Pilferer

Creature - Squirrel

Flash, Reach

Whenever a creature with flying dies, put a +1/+1 counter on Canopy Pilferer.

When Canopy Pilferer enters the battlefield, it gains Indestructible until end of turn.

2/2

I just remembered about Skylasher, which didn't really see play, but also that meta didn't have any xG control decks, so idk?

For cuts, i'd think about removing reach creatures as that ability is worthless once you have flying already.

So:

Then I'd cut down creatures that aren't that great in their own and are just in her for redundancy like

You might also want to as m switch stronghold assassin to Attrition and run Viscera Seer as a reliable and continual sac engine.

Also, if you're feeling spicy, you can run Killing Wave . You can use it offensively to drain opponents, it just as a "sac any number of you creatures" for a single {B}, since you can cast it for X=0 and still choose to not pay for each of your creatures.

Also some notes for possible upgrades that should be pretty cheap anyways.

Ghalta, Primal Hunger as a 2 of will almost always be a 12/12 for 2, and even if it's not it can still easily be a 3 drop.

This isn't really an upgrade, but I would run Garruk's Companion instead of Kalonian Tusker . I'd put it up to preference but the trample you get in exchange for that 1 toughness cut is pretty powerful and can help get some extra damage.

Another card to possibly consider is Nettle Sentinel . While you have to play a green spell to untap it, I think it would possibly run very well in this deck.

Boon Satyr

Skylasher would be a good sideboard card imo as it's a value creature on it's own.
