Description Under Construction

More Mana Than You Could Ever Need

The general idea is simple Marwyn, the Nurturer can produce a lot to infinite mana that can be spent on casting as many creatures (mostly elves) as possible then making them big and swinging for lethal or in many cases for much more.

Introduction

Welcome to my primer to Dominarias most famous midwife Marwyn, the Nurturer. The sub sections bellow explain how the deck works, what cards are key game pieces as well as explain why I've chosen some of the cards and more. Hope you'll enjoy my creation, however this is definitely a work in progress and is far from being finished. Therefore, any and all comments and suggestions are welcome as I definitely need help to make the deck more competitive and I'm forever struggling with dilemma of what to take out :)

Why Marwyn?

Wantted to try a mono colour deck and try and make it tribble budget. It the end I decided on Marwyn, the Nurturer because she was my first ever commander back when I didn't know a lot about the game and was just cracking packs and building random decks with my mate. So really jus sentiment and she actually turns out to be a lot of fun to play with!

Combo Pieces and How They Work

Only combos in the deck are to get infinite mana with Marwyn, the Nurturer to then use various cards to close the game. With the best engine being Umbral Mantle that with a little mana required can produce infinite mana in no time, same outcome can be achieved with Staff of Domination. However, this requires a little bit more mana to get started as you have to pay extra to untap it where compared to Umbral Mantle you only pay to Untap the creature.

Game ending cards

While the main objective is to flood the board with as many creatures as possible some cards will help to push the extra damage or provide an alternative way to win. Mana dump: Once you have access to a lot or infinite mana you can utilize it on the following cards: - Hurricane Can instantly kill anyone bellow your life total as well as kill all the fliers to clear the path for other creatures to swing for lethal. - Helix Pinnacle A hard to remove enchantment that allows you to dump any leftover mana with the only downside that you have to wait till your upkeep to win. - Joraga Warcaller/Ezuri, Renegade Leader Those guys allow you to make your elves huge and swing for tons of damage. Classic: - Craterhoof Behemoth yup Other: - Staff of Domination Not only works well with Marwyn, the Nurturer to give you infinite mana but can draw you an entire deck, give infinite life points and tapped all the enemy creatures.

How to Win as Fast as Possible

The quickest turn you can win is turn 2 However you will need those specific cards: Mana Crypt,Umbral Mantle,Sol Ring,Forest,Forest and something to utilize the mana with preferably Staff of Domination. Otherwise you have to get either Umbral Mantle or Staff of Domination workign with Marwyn, the Nurturer as fast as you can.

Why This Card and Not This one?
