I have conceived a few different style of Marath decks. I have looked at token, counter generation and general synergy. I originally tried a control deck with some control. Trying to control the board state, but I found I usually had a target on my head so I struggled to get my win conditions off due to the aggression of the deck.

Purposefully don't have Grafted Exoskeleton for now as our Play group have not yet unleashed infect.

Any suggestions welcome :)

Combos

Sekki, Seasons' Guide + Warstorm Surge = Unlimited damage to players

Earthcraft + Squirrel Nest = Unlimited 1/1 Squirrels (don't have haste)Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Restoration Angel = unlimited Restoration Angels

Combine one of the above with:

• Goblin Bombardment//Purphoros, God of the Forge//Warstorm Surge = damage to opponents
• Aura Shards = enchantment/artifact removal
• Altar of the Brood - mill all opponents

Marath, Will of the Wild Combos

Marath, Will of the Wild + Cathars' Crusade//Ivy Lane Denizen//Doubling Season//Hardened Scales + Mana Echoes//Phyrexian Altar//Earthcraft = Unlimited mana/token generation

Use above with:

• Goblin Bombardment//Purphoros, God of the Forge//Warstorm Surge = damage to players
• Aura Shards = non-creature removal
• Basilisk Collar = Creature removal
• Altar of the Brood - mill
