"Fool. Who are you? No one. Nothing." - Emet-Selch

Commander / EDH Bracket 3 Counterspell Cycling Mill Theme/Gimmick UB (Dimir)

BATLORD


Just my take on an Emet Selch deck. Self-Mill with a hint of cycling. You have a few wincons in the deck: Flickering Cloud of Faeries or Peregrine Drake with Deadeye Navigator while untapping the karoo lands Everglades, Dimir Aqueduct or Coral Atoll, Beating people to death with Zodiark, Umbral God, or Zenos yae Galvus  's backside, Shinryu, Transcendent Rival  . Temporal Extortion is in here instead of Time Warp because I'm pretty sure infinite turns is a no-no in bracket 3, but also it feels pretty on-brand for Emet Selch to really drag out messing with people. I built the deck specifically for my bf who is Very Normal about Selch. Play pattern is self-milling until you can flip into Hades, Sorcerer of Eld   and then figuring out ways to get him off the board when it's not your turn. The premiere way is Vanishing but you can also sacrifice him or have them die in combat if that suits your fancy. Selch is very conviently Unearth CMC so you can just bring him back if you wanted in a myriad of ways but I think one would rather put a finisher on the board instead.
