I got bored of Atraxa and wanted to make a Reanimator deck I found a cEDH Varolz Hulk build and I used that as reference. I want to build this for competitive play but I decided to start off with a casual build to see if it’s something I’d enjoy playing.

That aside time for the breakdown and info of the deck!

What's this deck about?

I created this deck with the cEDH meta in mind, but I also wanted to see if I can make it viable for casual as well without being too OP -- despite being an instant win deck, as well as having a competitive spine and nervous system. The main wincon of the deck is Protean Hulk . However, bear in mind this deck is still being worked on! I am still trying to get some more pieces of it!!

Protean Hulk Win

There are two main ways to win with Hulk. I have them both in here until I decide which I like better or to have as a back-up if one of the other's pieces are missing. The first hulk one is done with fetching Wingrattle Scarecrow , Melira, Sylvok Outcast , and Disciple of the Vault . However, if one or more of those pieces are missing and you don't have a way to get them back you can fish for Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and Walking Ballista .

Note: This deck is based on and inspired by Varolz Hulk and Varolz Hulk Budget Build by sickrobot. If you want to read more and have better insight into what my deck can/may become please check it out.
