king-saproling working on the write up right now. this deck has been around for a few years and has been gutted and reassembled more than I'd like to admit. I'm finally at a point where I'm finding it's a nice balance of chaos and combo. I'd love some input! I get overwhelmed when trying to refine randomness! Not sure if I've got too many or too few extra turns/combats. :)

The list looks great so far. Refining randomness does sound tricky. I think you could make it a little more consistent by swapping out the fun chaos cards like Desperate Gambit for more extra combat things like Relentless Assault or tutors like Vedalken AEthermage, but then again the coin-flip cards are unique and on theme. Like you said, the list has a nice balance of chaos and combo, so I suppose it depends on whether you want it to dip further toward one theme or the other.
Also you can add images by right-clicking the image you want, then "copy image link"/"copy image location", and put the url in the syntax like so:

I'm glad(?) that I'm not the only one that realized that Yusri would be the commander for foot fetish planeswalkers.

king-saproling I must be doing something wrong. Images still aren't showing up :/
Crow-Umbra I bought a bundle exclusively for the feet promo ;) Refusing to put Lightning Greaves or Swiftfoot Boots in the deck. Gotta let them babies breathe.

Lmao tiffanyann, maybe you can use Fleetfeather Sandals instead, or maybe even a Crystal Slipper?

I'm dead. Just realized Crystal Slipper isn't plural. Sure it grants haste, but I have to imagine my commander hobbling along with one shoe on.

But Yusri is going to be hobbling along HELLA fast tiffanyann. The Crystal Slipper has a single Heely in it.
Multi-purpose Crystal Heel grants haste, +1/0, and is clear for the foot fetishists

Wow, I love this! Your deck description is awesome too :D
Have you been able to get in any games with it in its current form? I'm really curious to hear how it plays. From here though, your list looks really balanced, keeping it viable while also dipping into a little chaos to make games variable and fun!

KibaAlpha that's cuz it is. :)
Peoyogon Played 6, won 1. Deck is consistent at flipping and card draw. Land base needs some work still. Yusri is definitely gonna hit you in the face so best to get lifelink on him fast. Keep a Desperate Gambit in hand for some janky all or nothing protection. I like extra turns over extra combat so that might be the next thing that gets fixed. I absolutely have fun playing this deck.

I've been looking for cards that have an effect whenever you damage a player (yourself for Yusri) or when you gain life (same again). Red/Blue don't usually do this so i'm hitting a wall. I love decks that get a bonus for beating themselves up. Have you looked for cards like that? It would have to say player and not opponent to work here.

carpecanum or did you mean Sanguine Bond type effects in izzet?
August 10, 2021 1:23 p.m.
carpecanum says... #15
No, more like Sigil of Sleep but good for you. Most of the things I see are "combat", "opponent" or damage to a creatures. There has to be something
When you take damage = bonus
When you cause damage = bonus
When you gain life = bonus

Yeah, Sanguine Bond would be great if in the right colors

It might be too unreliable but I love Puppet's Verdict as a unique sweeper. Its low CMC and instant speed has got me out of some tight jams too. Final Fortune also seems like a cool include if you want to go down a all-in (with a high chance of self-destruction) theme

If you would rather be able to Assault Strobe at instant speed, you can try out Psychotic Fury. It gives a card, and Yusri is multi-colored, so he can be targeted by it.

Legit question that I don't know the answer to:
If Yusri deals 20 damage to you, do you lose the game from taking lethal commander damage? Like, does that count if it's your own commander?
Just hadn't ever thought about it, I guess. Sorry, no actual comments or suggestions for you. Deck looks fun as hell!

Rule 9: If a player has been dealt 21 points of combat damage by a particular Commander during the game, that player loses a game.
Not combat damage, so no. Would be hilarious though.

Could be up your alley of 'chaos and jank'. I used it for awhile in a different deck just because it was fun. Talent of the Telepath can be a gamble but also can make for some memorable plays (insert deadpool gif 'Stupid! Worth it!') Like nabbing an In Garruk's Wake pre combat XD, using someone's Cyclonic Rift w/o overload, etc. Never know what's lurking near the tops of those piles.

JANKYARD_DOG haha I love it! Definitely gonna slot it in!
king-saproling says... #1
Haha wow his feet are oddly prominent. This looks fun. You might like these: Fabricate, Gamble, Spark Double, Shadowspear, World at War, Fiery Gambit, Teferi's Ageless Insight
