Well a short intro:

I've always been in love with the Mardu color combination, I'm not a fan of Boros at all (and I don't need to tell you how bad Boros is in EDH.. or in general), but adding black to the mix just changes everything for me.

I've played Staxx/Land Destruction Kaalia, Staxx Alesha, Tymna & Vial Smasher and loved them all, but there was just something wonderful in upgrading Edgar's 2017 CMDR Deck, it felt really nice making a kitchen table tribal pre-con deck into something viable.

The deck is an honest, relatively low curve tribal aristocrats deck, abusing Edgar's crazy token making for sacrifice shenanigans. Mostly aggroing people down with 1 & 2 mana dudes, Purphoros triggers and saccing the entire field to Goblin Bombardment, creating a huge Elenda and then saccing her to the Bombardment for a new round of machinegun madness.

However, as all EDH decks tend to do it does have two infinite instant kill combos.

1 - Elenda, the Dusk Rose + Nim Deathmantle + Ashnod's Altar = Infinite sacrifices/mana/tokens

 leading to a kill is Purphoros, Blood Artist or Zulaport is/are on the field.

 I don't believe I need to explain the combo to anybody, its a tried and true combo with Elenda being a tribal
 synergy version of Grave Titan (albeit it can get out of hand much quicker on its own).

2 - Oathsworn Vampire + Phyrexian Altar - Unlike the first combo I believe there is a need to explain this one

 as it only works with Edgar being the commander. 
 If you've ever read Oathsworn Vampire you might have noticed that if you gained life you can actually CAST 
 it from the grave, triggering Edgar and getting a vampire token in the process. Oathsworn and the token it 
 gets net you 2 fodders for Phyrexian Altar, allowing you to get 1x B mana and 1x mana of your choice to 
 start an infinite loop of casts and saccs, having Blood Artist or/and Zulaport (Or Purph/Tremors if you 
 gained life some other way) on the field.. well that wins you the game.. mostly.
