Terastodon
Creature — Elephant
When this enters the battlefield, you may destroy up to three target noncreature permanents. For each permanent put into a graveyard this way, its controller creates a 3/3 green Elephant creature token.

i don't like Lotus Cobra and Exploration here as they're utility landfall cards that I can't fully leverage (I have no landfall payoffs). Also I've decided to take the tron approach with this deck (an old modern deck from yore that I'm familiar with), hence you might have noticed the increase in board wipes
I treat Reshape the Earth as a second copy of Boundless Realms, in the sense that it gives me lots of land even without the commander in play (getting utility nonbasics with it is a great perk), ramp up to eldrazi and towards the combo (did you notice that I have an infinite combo here? xD) and it also serves as a damage boost when I swing in for commander damage
i don't want to use Ancient Tomb because i intend to stay in bracket 3 and i only have 3 game changers to work with.
Speaking of which, make a wild guess what Ulvenwald Hydra, Terastodon, and Rise of the Eldrazi are supposed to be :)
Oh yeah, i believe it'll happen

I think you should run more stuff like Lotus Petal or Elvish Spirit Guide, Legacy is an incredibly fast format, and a deck like this needs to be putting a threat on board turn 2 pretty reliably, Lands decks and Reanimator decks can both put similar (or even better in the case of Lands) creatures onto the board on or before turn 2.
To protect vs wipes you could try Heroic Intervention, it's pricey but once you've stuck a threat I feel like you need it to stay alive. Not of this World can help protect your big creature from targeted stuff fwiw, but that's neither wipes or counters!
Have you thought about something like Terastodon to deal with stuff like Ensnaring Bridge? If a Discard deck can stick their Bridge do you have any ways to deal with it? I'm not saying Discard is a prevalent deck, but it can also kill a Dark Depths before they go off with it fwiw. The nice perk of the card is if you blow up lands your opponent will have a hard time casting a wipe, while you might be able to make another large creature!
I feel like I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Once Upon a Time, I'd run it as a x4, having one in your opening hand is really, really good I've found in my elf list (which also uses a lot of mana dorks fwiw). Between Once and the plethora of 1 mana dorks I used I ended up going down to 16 lands, which I was pretty happy with in practice.
If you're TRULY desperate for ways to deal with counter magic you can try Null Brooch, I used it in an aggro list to stop wipes, but if you REALLY want to protect stuff that's already on board it can help. It's a terrible card vs rack decks, but that's why we have sideboards, right?

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.

Blaine's house
Tivit won, tried to win with Time Sieve but Thrashing Brontodon on board disenchanted it, thanks Varis, Silverymoon Ranger. Still, Tivit kept pounding, connecting for his Council's Dilemma trigger, and the deck overcame Kurtis's Terastodon triple Stone Rain. Illusion of Choice allowed my Plea for Power to be an extra turn spell. Inspiring Statuary with 13 Clue tokens enabled so much! Rune-Scarred Demon found Final Parting for Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward combo--I had the Animate Dead in my hand--Nevermaking Nevermaker all opponents' nonland permanents to the top of their libraries with infinite Tyvit triggers. Record goes to 25-27-1 for a .481 win percentage.

RockIV on Golgari commander deck Opinions
8 months ago
Hi everyone, ive been recently building some commander decks. Lately ive made a monoblack commander, but after playing with it, i decided to transform it into a golgari.
Rocks Golgari power of death Commander
Im using Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord as my commander, my strategy is going to summon big creatures and sacrifice them (in the right moment) to do damage to all my oponents.
im using some reanimator spells to be able to bring them back, like Entomb, Buried Alive, Exhume. Animate Dead, etc. I decided not to include Reanimate, because of the life loss.
right now, i included more than 15 mana ramps, to be able to get the enought mana to cast the strong creatures as early as i can.
i still not shure if the creatures i choose are the correct ones, and also if the number of creatures is the correct.
i feel that creatures like Desecration Demon, Spiritmonger and Skarrg Goliath can be replaced for something better like, a Terastodon or a Hydra Broodmaster
what do you guys think? suggestion will be deeply apreciated.
ty for everyone that read or comment on this post and in the last one too :D

Budget Meren Eldrazi spawn
1 year ago
I think Hand of Emrakul, Decimator of the Provinces, Kozilek, the Great Distortion, and Pathrazer of Ulamog are too expensive to cast / commander ability for what they do. Some replacement examples would be: Terastodon, Void Winnower, Fleshbag Marauder, Noxious Gearhulk, Ravenous Chupacabra, Plaguecrafter, Eternal Witness, It That Betrays, Woodfall Primus, Acidic Slime, Ob Nixilis, Unshackled, Sepulchral Primordial, Overseer of the Damned, etc.
cards like Dalek Squadron with a sac outlet will get you a lot of Meren counters quickly. cards like Greater Good are great at filling your graveyard and your hand. cards like Oversold Cemetery are great for your low mana creatures and late game expensive creatures. Tragic Slip isn't a very good card for multiplayer commander, unless you are using something like Isochron Scepter
I think your deck is a little heavy on creature token generators, especially your creatures. I know they are there to build up tokens on Meren and to generate mana, in the early game, but they aren't doing much in the mid to late game. Maybe replace a few with some faster reanimator spells like: Living Death, Lifeline (a personal favorite), Necromancy, Animate Dead, Victimize, Rescue from the Underworld, Beacon of Unrest, etc.
Other cards I would consider cutting: Skullbriar, the Walking Grave (too slow imo unless he is your commander), Blisterpod (needs to die to get the token), Pawn of Ulamog, Vorapede, Village Rites, Gray Merchant of Asphodel (starts to shine with lots of reanimator stuff), Woe Strider, Scion Summoner, Brood Monitor, Deathreap Ritual, Commander's Sphere
It's tough to suggest cards for a budget deck. A card that I might consider to be absolutely necessary could require cheaper options in other parts of the deck to make it fit.

What is your budget per card?
Why run a signet in a 2 color deck with green? Rampant Growth/Nature's Lore are budget friendly swaps
Elemental Bond - Should budget allow, better than colossal majesty
Soul's Majesty - Budget friendly draw
Harmonize - Regula, reliable draw
Life's Legacy/Momentous Fall - Super draw, beware of the blue player however
Traverse the Outlands - ???? Or do you not have enough basics?
Sakura-Tribe Elder/Wood Elves/Nissa's Pilgrimage/Farhaven Elf - Solid ramp
Eternal Witness - Recursion
Fierce Empath - Tutor
Inferno Titan - Damage
Terastodon - Removal (that can hit pesky lands)
Decimate - 4 in 1!
Would love to hear your thoughts on each suggestion, hope this helps!
