seshiro_of_the_orochi: Thanks for your comment – and for the +1 on Hellegion! :)

Honestly, I’m not quite sure what a spider holding a bow would look like… maybe with one of its legs? Haha. But Vraska? She’d have no trouble at all. Jokes aside, you actually pointed me toward a simple combo I had completely missed – poisoned shots at opponents. Viridian Longbow plus Infect or Fynn, the Fangbearer is a really cool idea.

To be honest, I’ve been thinking more and more about building another deck – a Gorgon/Snake tribal with Vraska, Aphellia, Damia, and similar characters. The only thing that holds me back is figuring out what direction this current spider deck would go in then, because I wouldn’t want to run the same cards and strategies in both.

As for the infinite mana and board wipe combo – it’s a brilliant idea. I’m just a bit worried my playgroup might not be so nice to me for the rest of the evening. But hey, why not try it at least once, right?

Cards that protect Shelob are very welcome. I’ve already tried to include a few similar effects, and thanks to you I now see even more possibilities. Appreciate it!

I've had a deck around Shelob for a while. It has since made room for Ygra, Eater of All, but Shelob can definitely do some rather unique things.

First, there is neat tech when having a commander with Ward. Including a number of spells like Snakeskin Veil, Fake Your Own Death and Not Dead After All always make fir great "Gotcha"s when an opponent tries to remove your commander.

Cards like Viridian Longbow are powerful for deathtouchers in general, and for Shelob, it can be easy removal. For even more shenanigans, Thornbite Staff with Longbow can be a one-sided boardwipe.

Finally, Shelob goes infinite with Devoted Druid. Just kill the druid with a spider to get an artifact that untaps infinitely to get infinite . I don't know if this works for your playgroup, but it's quite powerful. Protean Hulk can do similar things, the only problem lies within it being 7 mana to get out.

I wish you all the fun with the deck!

I really like Fynn because you have a lot of cheap options to make that deck really strong.

Vapor Snag and Electrolyze with the snappys sure takes me back. Yeah you could run other stuff to optimize this idea more like Urza's Saga+Viridian Longbow, but as it stands this list is--I believe the kids call it swag?

Also, consider Viridian Longbow or Hunter's Bow. The longbow is somewhat repeatable creature destruction at instant speed, while the bow helps protect your creatures and takes out a creature as it enters.

The Viridian Longbow + Thornbite Staff + deathtouch creature board wipe combo is just like the Goblin Sharpshooter + Basilisk Collar one. Pretty cool to see this again, especially with the colorless options.

Nice work with this one, the overall price of the deck is impressive too as Thornbite is not a cheap card.

Hey Balaam__. Finally added Viridian Longbow after 3 years. I got a hold of 3 copies from a coworker. He gave me a whole bunch of cards that he said he don’t need since I told him I don’t play Magic and have no cards. He was teaching me the basics of building decks and the rules and saw this card. I got excited but I had to control myself so I would look like I really have no clue.

My default commander is muldratha and inturn I've collected tons of graveyard/etb/recursion effects to compliment. From Time Sieve with several enablers Pentavus Myr Battlesphere Thopter Assembly Encroaching Mycosynth & Unctus, Grand Metatect, Horseshoe Crab, Paradise Mantle, Viridian Longbow but I'd include combos like gitrog and Dakmor Salvage because they enable strong combos and can work in combination with other peices like Crystal Vein or Dryad Arbor . Slime foot was also one of my original homebrew ing commander's finding a handful of cheeky combos that allowed him to swing well above his projected power level as well being a utility peice for mid and drawn out games. Plus has become a wincon on its own on occasion. Beledros is listed mainly cause of his ability would just make him a automatic solid choice.
