Not in EDH (1vs1), that's the format at the Grand Prix.

Isnt Prime Time (Primeval Titan ) also banned in commander? I looked at the ban lists for US/French..Its on the US list, but not the french. So I guess my real question is, is the ban list only based off the french list or the US list aswell.

According to my judge friend, primeval titan and Emrakul aren't forbbiden in French EDH and are authorized in the Grand Prix. But you put a lot of doubt so I'm gonna go check out.

I like how you are going naya I also have a marath edh tokens though...I have a feeling your going to run into a lot of maelstrom wonder, edric, and prime speaker decks but then again I don't play in tournaments.

I think Bloom Tender would be better than birds...

Bloom tender is good but I can't find anyone who exchanges it. And the Birds must be in this deck, it's one of the best accelerators of the game.

What kinds of cards help against Zur and Krenko? I ask this not to question your deck but because I'm wondering it myself. Zur and Krenko seem to be unbelievably powerful commanders and I make my decks often based upon the fear of facing them.

The best acceleration would be sol ring not birds hands down no questions asked.First things first you need a solemn simulacrum every edh deck has one it's like an unspoken rule unless you go creature less. Second you need a beast within and a krosan grip because the remove things they go in every single green deck period.Third you need a tooth and nail goes great with avenger of zendikar or ogre battledriver.Also please put in a chromatic lantern it helps when running three colors.If you can't play any of these cards in France I recommend not playing in France, but if you can play them do. It will make your deck a lot more competitive.Also you have white in your deck there is no need for an oblivion stone white has all the bored wipes.

lol @ samj1988, this guy is basically a pro. He's going to a grand prix. I just looked at your decks and you have absolutely nothing on him.
He never said birds was THE best acceleration. Can't you read? And he's from France. English probably isn't his first language. Is it yours?
Solemn is great, I agree, but there's many reasons for not including it. It doesn't interact with your opponent's stuff at all; only nets your card advantage. Take a look at this deck and tell me if he's more interesting in interacting or card advantage.
He doesn't necessarily need a beast within or a krosan's grip. Krosan's grip is a very narrow card and he's probably taken into account the meta and has decided that it might be a dead draw/would rather draw a card that that is more aggressive. I like beast tho, and that is certainly something for withwarrior to consider. Though I can guarantee you he already has.
And what do you mean "if you can't play any of these cards in France I recommend not playing in France"? Are you trying to be offensive? You come across as a hick.
Finally, lmao @ bored wipes. You're a bored wipe. And in any case why would he want to wrath when this deck is about PLAYING LOTS OF CREATURES?

Thanks for the passionate defense man, but I'm anything but a pro XD I merely started around a year ago. I am still missing around 6 fetchlands, a wasteland and a Gaea's cradle, which is why you will NEVER see a solemn in a pro's deck because there isn't supposed to be any basic land. The Beast Within is really interesting and I'm considering adding one. I still have to find a Natural Order before anything . And you're right, a Wrath has nothing to do in a Marath deck.As for my English, don't thou worry, I shall be able to understand what thou are saying.

This is a Very interesting Marath deck. I would consider replacing Harmonic Sliver with Aura Shards. It makes all creatures, instead of just harmonic sliver, blow up artifacts and enchantments for the same CMC. Also, You might try Hero of Bladehold, 4mana 3/4 battle cry that puts 2 2/1's (essentially) on tapped and attacking. You might also try Cathar's crusade (my favorite card in my Marath deck) because your tokens trigger the +1's
Predator Ooze is great as well. :)

Just finally foud a Dryad Arbor to add to the deck.

I dunno, are you sure? Stormbreath Dragon has protection from white, wich makes it good from any generals that have white in them by blocking them.
January 25, 2014 5:36 p.m.
I have to agree with Stormbreath over Thundermaw, it just does more. Thought I'm a little surprised to see now Garruk, Caller of Beasts with 40 creatures in the deck. Is he just too slow for competitive?

i just don't have him. But I'm worried I'd have too much planeswalker if I had him.

Put 2 more lands in it, including a Cavern of Souls to be able to place Marath against commanders with blue in them.Took out the Kalonian Hydra and the oblivion ring, put a Kiki-Jiki and a Worldly Tutor instead. Still missing the Naural order though, I can't seem to find anyone who has it (and exchanges it) in my city!
January 26, 2014 4:03 p.m.
Yeah, you guys are right. Stormbreath is better for EDH.
Do you include Skylasher because of the pro blue? I dunno, maybe you could swap it out for something more versatile.
January 26, 2014 10:31 p.m.
BalthazarSireConnard says... #24
Well it is mostly anti blue but it is also a 2/2 flash with reach that can't be counterd. It is just awesome.
January 27, 2014 4:04 a.m.
Yeah, Skylasher is a 2/2 for 2 with flash, reach, can't be countered and a death to Storm Crow built in. Why not play it. But no, seriously, this deck is awesome, I'd like to run this one against mine Marath and the Infinite Wilds because I was able to win like turn 6 or 7, and the combo for Marath is just dumb. The turn I played a Parallel Lives with Ivy Lane Denizen and Illusionist's Bracers on Marath, Will of the Wild he went from a 3/3 to a 20/20. All I needed was five mana. Oh yeah and with Shield of the Oversoul he was a 22/22 and win?
Upvote for you because you are throwing this at a Tourney. Enjoy your time and hopefully you like mine just as much as I like yours. Maybe after looking at mine you might see some ideas, I know I need an Archangel of Thune , but you should look into Ivy Lane Denizen because when you active Marath you'll get that counter back.
