Matteby2813 I really enjoy what you've created here! I also like the image of a peasant-king Kenrith who has to "grow his kingdom" with like, +1/+1 counters and other resources.

  • There's a ton of "treasures and trinkets" (mana rocks you'd expect like Sol Ring or Arcane Signet) but furthered development to the theme like Staff of Domination and Explorer's Scope to help you mana fix.

  • The investment in the theme with those smart choices and things like Replicating Ring and Everflowing Chalice to reinforce he does, in fact, have family relics that imbue some kind of supernatural kind of effect. I dunno, I just think this deck does enough to develop a strong imagination!

  • I really appreciate how the list includes very obscure choices like Corpsejack Menace alongside the greatest cast of includes like Conclave Mentor and pretty much every scale-able and adjacent effect you could think of to include in the first place. It's a full serving and then some committed to the task of adding +1/+1 counters, so that's worth mentioning for sure. Great job!

  • I see haymaker cards that really seal a strong game like Faithful Watchdog and I'm so so proud to see a card like that. Why? Because in your deck, in your vision.. you saw a man who is doing whatever it takes to succeed and his best friend.. who happens to be a f@#$%king bomb for your concept! 13/10 win for the deck.

  • I really like how your deck tackles the issue of 5 colors by balancing a lot of the game after turn , which, is where you typically lead with something Green. Since this is already the case, maybe think of inclusions like Birds of Paradise since it creates one of any color? That seems to be your gameplan, is to provide one-of-any after turn .

  • I noticed you kept the Gorgon around for the list. I'm just curious as to her inclusion, and wondering if you're shipping them with Kenrith.. dare I say.. SCanDal....? I'm just joking. But no really- why include her here? Just the one-off win condition of poision death? I get it.. but wondered if you really fancied Vraska. I know I do!

This was a great list, and I'm super surprised you haven't upvoted your own deck, my friend. Be proud of your work! Look at how great it is.

NV_1980 on my krenko (+shinys)

Would recommend Umbral Mantle; excellent on Krenko, but even better when also combined with Ashnod's Altar or Mana Echoes for an infinite combo. Something similar can be said about Staff of Domination. Adding Aggravated Assault would also work very well if you can sacrifice your gobbos for coloured mana. Grenzo, Havoc Raiser is an often overlooked card in Krenko decks, and for the life of me I don't understand why because he has absolutely spectacular potential as a disruptor of opponents' carefully laid out plans AND card-advantage (through theft). Lastly, I highly recommend you mainboard Idol of Oblivion because red has few enough good card-advantage resources as it is and it's too good combined with Krenko's ability not to include it.

Goldberserkerdragon on Robots in the Grass

Sounds dope, Saryth is no joke. Lol I am weird and dont have good stuff binders. I just keep all legendaries, foil rares, mythics, and anything of value in my binders. As a commander player i feel it's easier for me to locate legendaries and high dollar cards (which is good stuff i guess) lol. But yeah seems like an ode to old school magic in Oviya. I like both her design spaces; one doing what green never does, and one doing what green does best. I think if we can do infinite mana and untaps, cough cough Staff of Domination in Oviya, it becomes the same best thing every green deck can do. She offers vehicle and plus 1 counter stuff play which is nice and fun.

Either way, definitely excited for this Aetherdrift set and wondering why all the content creators are bashing it... lol my pod cant wait.

Doombeard1984 on Lathril has Elf Ballz

so I kind of find Elvish Piper a little... redundant. Thing with Elves is they can make soooo much many, simply playing a Craterhoof Behemoth is not tricky.

  1. Temur Sabertooth is so good as can bounce your stuff and replay them.
  2. Thousand-Year Elixir and Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler let you use all those precious mana abilities as though they have haste. Can massively increase the speed of your deck. I also run an Akroma's Memorial in mine for full haste amongst the other bonuses.
  3. Am a big fan of Nullmage Shepherd - Means you dont need to worry so much about Enchantment and Artifact removal.
  4. Seedborn Muse gives you an untap in everyone elses turn meaning many more activations of Lathril, Blade of the Elves other ability.
  5. Umbral Mantle and Staff of Domination can mean just win. Umbral makes many infinite mana combos, and staff lets you draw your library.

If youd like to have a look at my deck, here is the link - Golgari Elves

Good luck with the Elf deck, and feel free to hit my up with any other questions. +1

Kozelek on Trazyn the infinite combo guy

4 months ago

Sure it may “do the same thing” but changing it from black to BLUE and white changes the ENTIRE DECK most of my backup combos require a non creature artifact to get off like Monument to Perfection or Staff of Domination so i suppose i could build an entirely new deck but id have to get a Rex first and ive not seen one for sale locally and i have Trazyn so…. Also it’s only 3 cmc difference not 4

Flarhoon13 on Kruphix's Fantastic Elastic Mighty Morphin Machine

5 months ago

Having completed my quest to play all 52 of my decks, I decided to try getting a win with all of my decks.

Aug 30

Kruphix's Fantastic Elastic Mighty Morphin Machine loss. Selena's Marwyn, the Nurturerwent infinite via Staff of Domination on about turn 5. (I thought I could interrupt with Chromeshell Crab but it costs 5, not two mana, to unmorph.) Durr durr durr. 0-1

Flarhoon13 on Gettin' Kozi

5 months ago

May 3, 2024, I started a new quest. Having built 52 decks, I endeavoured to play them all, in roughly the same order as I created them.

Aug 15

Gettin' Kozi won with Basalt Monolith -- fetched by Moonsilver Key - and Forsaken Monument. I forget the win con, likely Staff of Domination to draw and play my entire deck. My record goes to 21-25-1 for a .457 win percentage.

Any reason you don't run at least a single Staff of Domination? It's pretty easy to get Priest of Titania to tap for enough to go infinite, at which point you should win on the spot. You can also use Elvish Archdruid as numbers 5+, the nice thing about using Staff like this is that you don't really need anything else for the combo to work if you already run Priest and/or Archdruid.

Maybe Collected Companyfoil is another card that might be a good x1 or x2? I run x2 in my Elves list, it often feels decent. Haha, then I saw your comment about budget and I realized that one of the decks from your link actually uses x4 Coco mainboard, the issue is that the card still isn't cheap in all likelihood. I don't know if you need a full 4 (iirc I put two in the sideboard to bring in vs fast aggro decks, along with deathtouch blockers, it's a weird sideboard), I had 27 'hits' for Coco and I was happy with it's consistency (as a x2), I think with your much higher hit rate you'd enjoy it even more.
