Rounding out the series of Omnath decks with a weird trip-pip mana cost and Gate deck with Maze's End as the win con. I'm thinkin' higher bracket 3, not quite fully up to snuff with low end B4s but better than your typical B3s.

The Primer

Disclaimer: I build my decks with the main goal of having a good time while playing and not necessarily optimizing them to win. Regardless of what you are looking for I hope you enjoy the deck!

Part 2: Because I only play casually, no group I play with uses commander damage as a win condition. Please keep that in mind while looking at the deck.

Part 3: This deck is one of a few of my more special decks and is one I give the more attention to foiling/upgrading.

Card Choices

Personal choices:

• Tutors: I get that tutors are good, I very occasionally use them however because it feels cheaty to me and I prefer the randomness of drawing off the top, uncertainty is all part of the fun for me! That said, this deck is one of my more refined decks and does have a number of tutors.

• Infinite Combos: They are allowed in my playgroup and it varies how often they show up in my decks. Winning with one is kinda boring though so I prefer to limit them (another reason I don't prefer tutors - sometimes they just say "grab a combo piece and win the game"). Once again, this deck is more refined and has a couple.
