multimedia on Gishath Dinos Budget V1.3

19 hours ago

Hey, nice first budget version of Gishath. Good job on the win.

Some budget cards to consider adding:

• Command Tower: staple Rainbow land.
• Arcane Signet: staple Rainbow mana rock.
• Garruk's Uprising: repeatable draw and give creatures you control trample.
• Rhythm of the Wild: makes Gishath uncounterable, can be a haste enabler or a +1/+1 counter effect to offset Forerunner of the Empire/Rampaging Ferocidon/Marauding Raptor.
• Apex Altisaur: repeatable creature removal with enrage fight and it fights when it ETB.
• Deathgorge Scavenger: repeatable graveyard hate is helpful in Commander.
• Three Visits: another two drop land ramp spell that can get a dual land.
• Exotic Orchard: staple Rainbow land.
• Path of Ancestry: staple Rainbow land, repeatable scry with Dinos.

Several of these cards are in Commander Legends, the new Magic set just released. The prices of these cards will be decreasing.

Cards to consider cutting:

• Vivid Meadow
• Temple of Abandon
• Temple of Plenty
• Grow from the Ashes
• Migration Path
• Vanquisher's Banner: repeatable draw from casting Dinos is not as good as draw that triggers when a creature you control ETB. Banner doesn't trigger when Dinos are cheated onto the battlefield and doesn't trigger when a Dino token is created.
• Whispersilk Cloak
• Burning Sun's Avatar
• Thundering Spineback

Good luck with your deck.

Hey there! You mentioned needing some help with the mana base, which is certainly something I might be able to aid you in! Your deck has a whopping 4.69 average mana cost, where 33 lands is around good for a average of 3.5. Due to that, you may want to add a few extra lands but mainly you want to have a very strong ramping mana base. Below, you will find some strong ramp cards that could seriously help a ton, if you aren't aware of them already! I would list out all the lands you should consider including, but you ca also find them right here (https://managathering.com/duallands/Gruul.html)! There are quite a lot of great lands you missed so definitely check that out, along with some multi lands like Prismatic Vista, Fabled Passage, Strip Mine, Wasteland, Reflecting Pool, and a ton more. Anyways though, take a look at these ramp cards:

• Burgeoning
• Exploration
• Bloom Tender
• Emerald Medallion
• Ruby Medallion
• Nature's Lore
• Cloud Key (Creatures)
• Three Visits
• Seething Song
• Geosurge
• Treasonous Ogre
• Dockside Extortionist
• Mana Flare
• DEFINITELY a Selvala, Heart of the Wilds
• Explore
• Heart of Ramos/Horn of Ramos
• Sylvan Caryatid
• Chromatic Lantern
• Mind Stone
• Commander's Sphere
• Oracle of Mul Daya
• Hehe maybe a Jeweled Lotus if you can afford it
• Mark of Sakiko
• Talisman of Impulse

Gosh that was a lot, but from that huge list I'm sure you can pick a few to add! With your average CMC and amount of lands currently, I'd try to make it around 37 lands, with maybe 13-16 ramp spells, or even more if you think the deck needs it. You could replace the ramp spells above with some of the worse ones , (for example cut Farseek for Nature's Lore, and remember lore can search for Stomping Ground) and maybe cut some more of the fluff cards. Like Star of Extinction is great but how many times do you really end up using it and it benefits you? Plus it'll blow up some of your own creatures! And also remember, while equipment is great, Xenagos is an automatic buff, so maybe you don't need as much of that. My point is, your deck needs a lot of ramp, and while other cards may be nice, it may be much harder to win without the ramp. So that said, I hope this helps, be sure to check out some of my decks (cough Double Trouble EDH ⫸PRIMER⫷ cough), good luck on your deck, and have a wonderful day!

Thanks for sharing your list on the Facebook post.

I can see a lot of cards that I also played in my Uril deck,

Uril, Stalker with the Mist

First big issue is see is that you have very little ramp. At a minimum you should be running these mana rocks:Sol Ring, Arcane Signet, and three guild signets or three talismans:

Boros Signet or Talisman of Conviction

Selesnya Signet or Talisman of Unity

Gruul Signet or Talisman of Impulse

I run a lot more additional ramp in my deck. In fact I found making use of land auras like Fertile Ground help with my draw capabilities due to my enchantress effects. Cultivate alone isn’t enough. Add Kodama's Reach, Nature's Lore, and Three Visits. Since you want to drop big auras like the Eldrazi aura, you should consider Academy Rector to cheat out one of those big auras.

You should consider adding the enchantress package:

Verduran Enchantress

Argothian Enchantress

Satyr Enchanter

Season of Growth

Sram, Senior Edificer

Kor Spiritdancer

Enchantress's Presence

Spot removal is important and Uril has access to Contested Cliffs. Hall of Heliod's Generosity is a great utility land to recur those lost auras. Kessig Wolf Run and Yavimaya Hollow are another great utility land.

Don’t just pick the auras that make Uril big. Pick good utility and evasion tactics like flying, trample, protection.

I don’t like Spectra Ward because once it’s on you can’t add more auras. There are plenty of pro creature auras that are cheaper cmc, and Uril doesn’t really need pro color because of the hexproof.

I hope this helps. Look over my build and maybe that’ll give some more ideas.

Good day to you.

I would recommend adding a lot more ramp. Spells such as Rampant Growth, Farseek, Three Visits, Nature's Lore, and Sakura-Tribe Elder accelerate the game plan to the late-game. Cut some of the top-end threats and you shall find a newfound consistency.

Fare thee well.

@Guerte, Mana Vault sounds like an interesting addition. I haven't run Rampant Growth for probably 4 years now as I picked up a P3K Three Visits when it was still relatively cheap. Farseek doesn't find forests unless you grab a dual land which I do not think is really worth while as these are normally fetched. I might test Mana Vault myself as this should help us save our ramp spells for when Omnath, Locus of Rage is in play.

Thank you so much for your Comment, and welcome fellow Nayan!

I have found that Bonders' Enclave really shines in the late game: When your hand is light and you have more then enough lands to Use Mayael's ability, Having just "safe" card draw on a utility land is great. That being said, I have also never run into an issue where I can't activate it, and it comes in untapped(most importantly) so Its just been a more solid late game card. Thanks to the fetches and the 3 CMC ramp, like Kodama's Reach, have helped a lot with color fixing, so as long as I have green its usually not an issue.

LOL I have never heard of Ishi-Ishi, Akki Crackshot but thats hilarious. That being said, I have used Migration Path mainly due to its flexible nature: If I have a lot of lands and dont need to ramp, I can pitch it for card draw. Also, the Deck has a LOT of high cost greatures, and accelerating on turn 4 especially (going from 4 to 6 lands) is so ideal, so often. That being said, I am getting some Commander Legends boxes and I could def swap it out for Three Visits / Nature's Lore when I test things out.

I have been testing Soul of the Harvest again. I took it out a long time ago cause I found it too slow, and there were a lot of high cost cards in the deck as it was. Now though, It is nice to possibly grab it with Mayael, but ultimately I think the slot either needs a tutor or a Sylvan Library as I have found that top-deck manipulation can work almost as well as card draw and the Library provides both. We shall see though, cause when I get my hands on Commander legends a lot of my decks are gonna get upgraded.

I had initially disliked Zacama, Primal Calamity due to the fact his ETB is on cast, and the deck primarily wants to cheat things out. However, the removal is VERY appealing, as I think the deck just needs ONE more removal card to deal with non-creature stuff and it could be epic to use. I will have to playtest it, as I was originally thinking of putting in Woodfall Primus.

You're so right about Akroma, Angel of Wrath though. There are so many times where I see her and its just a dead card cause all she does is provide solid beatdowns. Pro Black and Red is not enough value anymore, and she is gonna honestly be first on the cutting board. That being said though, Commander Legends is when I am really gonna be making modifications to my decks, so We shall see what I do.

Until then, I am so glad to hear that you love the deck! Mayael is my first and arguably one of my best decks I have, I am so glad you enjoyed it! I love being a big ol Timmy and cheating out massive Creatures into play. Please lemme know if you have other suggestions, or want me to look at something.

multimedia on Jared, the Sexy King

2 weeks ago

Hey, nice version of Jared. I'm not a fan of Jared, but I can see you have put a lot of thought into your deck and you have overall very good card sense on a budget. Card draw shouldn't be a problem as long as you can keep the monarch :)

The manabase is lacking which is understandable because of the low budget. Cinder Glade and Canopy Vista are two of the better budget lands for Naya because they are two different land types, have interaction with lots of basic lands and they're Forest lands. Farseek, but also Nature's Lore, Three Visits (Commander Legends version), Skyshroud Claim and Wood Elves can all search for them and these five land ramp spells are among the best in Commander because they can ramp with a dual land. Some other good budget lands are: Battlefield Forge, Path of Ancestry and Naya Panorama.

Crop Rotation can tutor for Throne of the High City. Open the Armory can tutor for Pariah, Shield of the Oversoul or one of five equipment. Pariah is an important card to have more access too because you can't lose the monarch when Jared is enchanted with it.

Kami of False Hope is the white Spore Frog. Sun Titan is now less than $1 and is quite helpful since it can be repeatable reanimation: Jared, Pariah, Throne, Frog, Reckoner or any other 3 CMC/less permanent. Dromoka's Command is a good instant fight spell since it also gives another mode.

---

Cards to consider cutting:

• 1x Mountain
• Blossoming Sands
• Temple of Abandon
• Temple of Plenty
• Temple of Triumph
• Khalni Ambush  ^Flip
• Migration Path
• Protector of the Crown: Archon and Regal are better six drop monarch enablers.
• Truefire Captain: difficult casting cost for this budget manabase.
• Blackblade Reforged: not needed since doesn't give evasion or protection and Jared will have huge power/toughness with counters.

Good luck with your deck.
