Offering EDH deck help!
Deck Help forum
Posted on May 30, 2013, 6:38 a.m. by Epochalyptik
A while back, I promised the TappedOut community a set of articles. I am no less busy now than I was then, but I am dedicating the time to compose and publish a series of EDH articles for the benefit of our players. In preparation for this work, I am offering my services as a veteran EDH player. Post your decks here and I'll take a look.
Each post should contain:
- A link to the deck.
- A description of what the deck is supposed to do.
- Any design limitations you have (e.g. no infinite combos).
- Your approximate budget.
- The kind of meta for which the deck is built (e.g. casual, tournament, etc.).
Hey Epochalyptik, thanks for doing this. I'll give you a nice relaxing one instead of all the people who want you to catapult their deck into competitive death machines.
The deck is designed to benefit a multiplayer table with beneficial effects that make the game more dynamic and interesting.
The main design limitations are that it's not actually intended to win games, so any infinite combos or hard locks, etc are right out. Also anything that makes the game less fun for other players (mandatory sacrificing/milling/discarding) I'd also like to try and keep it from making the game state TOO complex (So no Puzzle box or warp world, or things that end up making fifty triggers to track every turn)
Pretty much unlimited budget, since most friendly cards aren't super expensive. I'd say a budget of another 2-300 dollars on top of what's already here, and no more than 50 dollars for any single card.
I play this deck by request with friends doing casual multiplayer because they love how it accelerates everything, and I'll occasionally play it competitively when called upon to be the last person to fill a pod and don't actually want to worry about winning.

Designed to create an fort within which I can pick players off and take advantage of game mechanics
Problems I can foresee: Lack of removal or counter giving me tempo issues, or not getting enough mill to get rid of more than one player. Plus, this is my very first EDH deck, I definitely lack experience in the format.
Budget is under $150, since I am a student and casual player.
Currently, EDH is not regularly played in my meta due to not enough people having decks, standard has stolen all the player base. Hopefully getting a real deck and spreading the format will increase play.
Thanks for any advice you can give.

I actually didn't expect to get this many responses on the first day. Good to see so many EDH players out there. I am slowly working my way through the posts (I'm about halfway through the first page), and I will eventually get to all of them. I highly encourage you guys to check out some of the other decks posted in this thread; part of the reason for me starting this was to generate lots of feedback across multiple decks.

Mill win condition. Or taking opponent's strategy with Lazav, Dimir Mastermind . Or Make Consuming Aberration big
No limit
No budget
Casual
May 30, 2013 10:09 p.m.
Give me all of your bacon and eggs
It's supposed to be mainly creature stealing and board control through taps. Destruction is a secondary objective, going along with the commander's ability.
No infinite combos or excessively cheap combos, I want this to be fun to play against.
Budget of about $200-300.
Casual.
It's great of you to do this, it's usually so hard to get good advice on EDH decks since not too many people here play it enough to know what works and what doesn't.
May 30, 2013 10:41 p.m.
Commander is Gaddock Teeg . It casts Gaddock Teeg , then ramps into huge creatures to win. Various equipments and enchantments provide additional threats. Right now, I'm having problems with the deck running out of steam. Gaddock Teeg is quickly hated off the board. If I wait too long, someone drops a serious threat, and I can't find answers to it. It does much better in one on one, but against three players it's quite difficult. I'm honestly considering Jenara, Asura of War just so I can have access to blue for Mystical Tutor , Force of Will , etc. while making better use of swords.
No design limitations. It plays to win, not worry about hurt feelings (it is Gaddock Teeg , after all).
No budget. It will take a while to complete the deck to its fullest, but EDH is an Eternal format and I'm fine with taking my time to do the deck right.
Competitive pods, stuff to do in between rounds of tournaments, my playgroup is fine playing whatever.

TheOne4221 says... #8
Big thanks for offering this, mate. I've been trying to get into EDH for when I get the money and this is my second attempt at a decklist.
Goal: Many attack phases with large groups of non-token creatures. Abusing the combos Aurelia, the Warleader can pull with similar spells.
No limitations other than budget.
Please try to keep it under $250.
I'd like to play casually with this. On my budget, it'd probably just get creamed in a tournament setting.
May 30, 2013 11:34 p.m.
If you aren't burned out by the time you get to my deck list I would really appreciate the help!
- Shock and Awe
- The deck is all about "Enters the Battlefield" effects, with a focus on destroying permanents. I use a lot of scry-esque abilities to try to get the cards I want. I also try to make every creature I have in the deck fulfill a "tactical" roll. E.g. Sylvan primordial for destruction / ramp, Prime Speaker for draw, and Deadeye Navigator for blink, etc. I tend away from attacking with creatures other than Intet, just because I usually have so few on the field.
- No mass land destroy (other than what I can create from combos).
- $100 - ~$125 (not a very hard budget)
- Casually competitive. I've been shooting for a turn 10 "win" everytime and getting pretty good results.
I actually have built this deck and play it against my friends, just looking for how to make it a bit stronger.
Thanks!!

Bloodborne says... #10
Wou, this is great thing what you are doing, thanks!
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/day-of-judgement-2/
- Total mass destruction to others than my toys and keep battlefield clean. Recycle a little toys again. Find away to play cheaply big metal golems and crush the opponent/s.
- This is slow deck but that's some times the real problem. Against creature decks this is very good. I have almost always one mass destruction spell in my hand. But against aggro decks this is too slow. I need some ways to get faster protection to myself or to get a little blockers or big toys on the field earlier in the game. I have a few thiskind of cards in the deck but is there more or any combos to help me?
- Total budget free.
- Casual but I like this idea very much. Maybe that's why I like to take this deck further and maybe some day in the bigger games.

miracleHat says... #11
Nice offer. Whatever, I will take it.
kaalia's reality a kaalia edh deck
the point of the deck is to play kaalia as quickly as possible attack with her play a ton of angels/demons/dragons and swing for the kill as quickly as possible
i would prefer not to have infinite combos, but (i guess) i will take them into consideration
i would prefer to have the budget be under $15 a card
the deck is to be in a casual setting, though i may take it into a tournament someday, when it gets better.
P.S.Thanks alot, this is really great.

Thanks for the service!
- My deck in Animar's got soul It is just a big combo with Animar to get large creatures out that have great board effects
- no limitiation
- no budget limit, I am building over time
- I would like it to be fairly competitive
Thanks for any advice!
May 31, 2013 1:37 a.m.
Thanks for the offer!
My deck is Merieke the Enchanter
It's essentially a control deck in Esper colours, utilising creatures that have tap effects and exploiting them with untapping effects and flickering.
No limitation
No real monetary limit, although I don't really wanna spend about 150 pounds on a Mana Drain , etc
Been trying it out in casual with proxies, looking to step it up.
May 31, 2013 1:38 a.m.
Here's a couple that I would like some advice on, especially the first one!
- Isperia, Supreme Judge EDH
- The deck is a fairly basic UW control deck. Counter spells that will let others take the game away while playing cards that discourage people from attacking you.
- That being said, it's really difficult to make a deck that is defensive without being completely oppressive. I want people to be able to to play an enjoyable game, I just don't want them going after me.
- I could see spending fifty dollars on changes to the deck.
- My playgroup is pretty casual, but we like to make strong decks. Strong cards and strategic decks, but few infinite combos or lockdowns.
The other deck:
- Nin, the Pain Artist EDH
- The deck is all about drawing cards for eveyone, followed by punishing other players for doing so.
- I'd prefer to avoid infinite combos, even an infinite mana combo to deck people with Nin.
- Again, about 50 dollars budget seems reasonable.
- Same playgroup.
Thanks for your consideration!
May 31, 2013 2:30 a.m.
- I present my deck: Karona Group Hug is FUN!
- The goal of this deck is to either A: get second place because someone won in the first 15 turns or B: get 1st place because the game went on too long and I won with Maze's End
- I'd like the deck to remain politically neutral (no group hate)
- No budget :D
- Massively multiplayer EDH (I'm talking like 6 or 7 people)

1.Glissa, the Traitor Artifact EDH is my main deck and Hypothetical Rith EDH is a side project that I'm working on.
Glissa is trying to be very versatile by being able lay low and just have fun with sweet interactions, be aggressive with a Glissa Voltron package or some other large creatures, control the board completely, or combo off (but have combo pieces that have value of their own so that I can ignore their interaction when playing with no combo groups). Anything new I would put in here would take a lot of consideration and would have to be pretty great. Rith is just a fun token deck. I want it to be able to swarm the field like crazy and be able to come back quickly from wrath's, but in it's current form Rith's Tokens it doesn't really do all that much. I'd like help on my hypothetical rith edh rather than the original because I know the original is very good, I'm wondering if the hypotheical one is the right way to go about it in the future.
No limitations
No set budget. I've got great friends who will look for things for me even if they're out of my price range( except things like Bayou . Mainly $15 and below cards)
Build to not make either type of play group freak out. I want it to hold it's own in a very competitive meta but not make all the casual players rage-quit. Was playing in a mildly casual group but am about to move so I want it to be just fine in either meta.

sarevok686 says... #19
- Sliver control EDH2.I'm new to EDH but the deck is your average sliver deck except more control than aggrothe deck attempts to control the pace of the game while swarming with slivers
- I have no limitations- there's an infinite tokens combo but i prefer not to use it
- Small budget around 50-100 dollars, but i own 90% of the cards in the deck (all the expensive ones)
- the meta is mostly casual but id like to make it more competitive if possible
mainly i need help deciding which cards are most important to keep in the deck (get it down to 100) or any you think i should i am missing
any and all help, suggestions is greatly appreciated!
May 31, 2013 3:06 a.m.
That's exactly what I'd need right now as I'm building my first Commander deck at the moment, knowing very little about the format.
Basically it should be a white weenie deck with a reasonable curve and manabase and just do what WW does - turn many guys sideways and beat him down in many little chunks :)
I don't want to have some absurd imbalanced supercombo. Synergy is very nice, but it's for fun.
No budget limitations.
Should be good enough to beat some of the good decks, but it's for fun only, although we all know magic is less fun if you're losing all the time :D
Thanks in advance and I'm looking forward to some very helpful tipps.
May 31, 2013 9:39 a.m.
This is a great list of EDH decks! Thanks for doing this!
This is a pretty new deck, and has a lot of flaws:
The deck wants to knock everyone else low on life and finish off a player or two with pumped up creatures. I'm going to make the deck more Voltron focusing on Radha, Heir to Keld though.
Uh, no infinite combos.
I'm okay spending $30 on a card if it's really good for the deck, and I don't want to spend more than $200 total.
Some of the players have very competitive decks, and some have kind of bad noob decks. I'd like to be able to hate on the better players and level the playing field a bit. Dealing a lot of damage to everyone helps the more aggro noob decks (including my own) win and quickly kill combo players. Being able to kill generals (esp 2/2's) on sight is good.
May 31, 2013 10:19 a.m.
Also, I love the different points you list. I should probably add this description to my deck pages to get some better comments.
And, if anyone wants my help with EDH decks, I'm probably going to post a few comments on other people's decks.

Jace the Firebrand says... #23
- The Great Kazuul (EDH)
- Lock down the game, but get attacked enough to have creatures to kill
- No infinite combos. They beat the fun out of any game
- I try to limit my expenditure, usually no more than $5 a card, and even that's pushing it. One or two $10-15 cards is alright though
- Casual Multiplayer, with the word casual being used loosely here.
May 31, 2013 12:06 p.m.
Pretty simple gameplan - chuck out your card draw engines, then enchant the crap out of Uril, the Miststalker and go to town.
No design limitations, other than the edh banned list.
unlimited budget.
Originally designed for casual play, i'd like to tighten the deck up as a whole and maybe strike out into tournaments if it performs consistently.

TheNinjaPhoenix says... #26
Thanks Epochalyptik, this is a great idea!
So guys, I have two EDH decks I'm currently working on. They are;
Deck One is Dreaming of Discord
This is my 'Discord Chaos' EDH - the deck is designed to make as many odd and wonderful things happen at once, both through the use of group-hugging and group-slugging cards. There isn't a need to win with this deck, as it's mainly designed to make the game wacky and weird, but I am trying to think of some decent win-cons for the deck. essentially, it's a deck filled with Shenanigans.
There are no limitations to this deck apart from the cards needing to be unusual and rather odd, such as Possibility Storm , Eon Hub and so on. I'd rather avoid Un-Cards but some may be fun to include if you can suggest them.
I don't really have a proper budget, but I don't want cards that are going to be costing me a lot of money to get hold of, as its only a casual deck,
We have a mixed meta where I play - some of us play casually, but we still need semi-decent decks as we have competitive players in our group who won't go easy.
The second deck is... Reading with Riku
This is a Riku card-draw EDH, but it needs both a lot of work and I need a lot of help with it. The key is to hold a lot of card advantage and be shenanigansy further down the line. One thing I'd definitely like help with it possibly going Izzet???
No limitations on cards, but try and stick with the card draw/burn idea.
Not a budget but once again, nothing hyper-expensive, like $100+.
Same as before, a semi-competitive deck is needed, but this is my main EDH compared to Discord being more relaxed, so yush.
Thanks guys.
May 31, 2013 2:08 p.m.
My very first EDH deck! Only been playing magic a year or so seriously. I'm trying to adhere to a fairly strict elf theme (it makes me happy). I need suggestions on what to cut out of my deck, I'm sitting at about 120 cards.
I prefer elf, tree, or archery related cards, but I'm willing to compromise if necessary.
No real deck budget but I don't like to spend more than 30 bucks on a single card.
I'd like to take it to tournaments but will most likely be playing at my LGS.
Thanks so much for anyone who decides to give me feedback, and esp. the OP.

- Karn-advantage EDH
- Degenerate artifact combos.
- The ban list.
- None really, I end up trading for everything.
- Casual, but I'd like to stomp face.
Thanks!
May 31, 2013 3:32 p.m.
- Animar's Animals
- Basic premise, Animar to bigger creatures with lots of ETB effects and flicker ability, Thought about using landfall abilities, but ETB was more fun.
- The ban list.
- I believe the group I'm playing with said $200 max for the deck, and I'm looking to keep around $150 or less. It's a casual group who is playing, so I'm not all that apt to shell out huge money.
- Casual

Use Mill to get good things in the yard for reanimation purposes

Any meta is fine.

- Krosa's Fist EDH
- Death through multiple overruns via Kamahl.
- The ban list.
- None. But I don't need huge beater style creatures (like Worldspine Wurm ) because everything in the deck is lethal, even lands.
- Competitive.
Sorry for the double post, this is a sweet thing you're doing for the community. Thanks!

MostlyLost says... #33
This is a really cool thing you're doing. Thanks a ton! Hope I'm not too late...
- Ghave+
- Tokens and +1/+1 counters should by flying around everywhere. I'd create and destroy tokens and shift counters around to wherever they're most helpful, and to get the most use out of things that are about to die. LOTS of fun combos, particularly with Doubling Season , Parallel Lives , Corpsejack Menace , Cathars' Crusade , Grave Pact , and Mycoloth , to name a few.
- No limitations content-wise. Really, the only thing that I want to avoid is making it unfun to play against.
- $10-$15 max per card
- It's made for casual, but I think it has the potential to be tournament viable and it would be cool to make it that good at some point.
May 31, 2013 4:11 p.m.
It is supposed to be a deck which uses the cascade thingy. Also Dragons maze . Not really have a clear goal
MUST be 5 color
not that restricted. 250$ max
Casual play
May 31, 2013 5 p.m.
Thanks for doing this!
Helix Pinnacle fun. Lots of ramp (but it could do with more), and some beaters in case I never find the Pinnacle.
I've got an infinite combo in there already (Argothian Elder +Wirewood Lodge +Wild Growth d Forest). Basically, follow the official banlist and you're okay.
Preferably not too much more than $10 for any given card unless it's absolutely necessary. I don't care how many good $10-or-less cards you recommend, as long as individually they're inexpensive.
Casual.

Epoch why are you essentially taking from the deck help forum's traffic and making a featured thread that hides the Q&A bit on the mainpage?
May 31, 2013 5:37 p.m.
Epochalyptik says... #37
For the benefit of the community. Which is, ostensibly, the purpose of this website.
I also fail to see how this takes the deck help forum's traffic. It's not like users can only view my thread.
May 31, 2013 5:52 p.m.
MindAblaze says... #38
@ Demarge It's essentially a "get help with my EDH deck" thread, because not only is Epoch kind enough to lend users his expertise, every person who posts here has the opportunity to lend their eyes to someone else's deck. His five caveats are essential to anyone looking for assistance with their decks and it would be nice if people actually put these sorts of things in their deck descriptions so those of us who want to try and contribute can do so more effectively.
May 31, 2013 6:30 p.m.
Epoch, my meaning of taking deck help's traffic was to state that instead of these people's requests for deck help appearing there it's appearing at this single thread, which is already disorganized and overly lengthy and will mainly be seen only by those who asked for the help and yourself instead of in the deck help forum and the main page.
May 31, 2013 6:39 p.m.
Because this isn't about people asking for help and Epoch monopolizing on helping them. Instead Epoch is making a proactive request for people to submit things for his attention. That's a completely different thing, and this thread, at best, could have been done via him asking people to post to his profile page instead of here.
To suggest this is him doing something wrong is a little silly.

RousseausDisciple says... #41
I would also like to offer my thanks to Epochalyptik for his services.
I am currently building a Merieke Ri Berit deck under the name Mere Control. Its ultimate goal is essentially to control the board by using Merieke as either a machine gun or a take-all-your-guys card with the indestructibility interaction, thus winning with Sphinx of the Steel Wind or whatever my opponents are playing. As for limitations and budgeting, the non-lands in the deck should, if at all possible, remain at a level which is not exorbitantly expensive (i.e. no one card should cost more than $30 or so), and I am trying to avoid combos. My meta is heavy on the Timmys and while the decks operate on a high level, it is not extremely competitive, and it is mostly multiplayer.
May 31, 2013 8:21 p.m.
- Look its a zombie
- The deck basic is to beat down my opponent and take advantage of the graveyard and make my opponent sacrifice there creatures.
- none
- no budget
- casual for now.

parasitian says... #43
Like others have said, many thanks to you Epochalyptik!
My deck is intended to be somewhere between casual and competitive. Here is my list: Jarad and friends
- I'd prefer not to add any more tutors, I am content with the number I have right now
- Nothing extraordinarily expensive (I'm willing to buy $40 cards, but nothing more than that)
- No more fetch lands, despite them being very good in this particular list
- No more infinite combos or other devastating combos
- This deck has M14 in mind, I run Renegade Demon as a place-holder for Shadowborn Demon. I also would like your opinion on the M14 card, Primeval Bounty. Is it worth a slot in the deck? And if the answer is yes, then what should I take out?

im a relativy new edh player and would appreciate the help my comander is Savra, Queen of the Golgari and this is my deck Savra Token Queen
the deck is supposed to spam tokens, sac them for various things and win using either damage or a combo
no limitations
budget is no more than $10 per card unless its easily accesible by trade and no more than $50-100 total
im just starting to play so i play the deck at any chance i get

GreatAlexander says... #45
Thanks for doing this again, I recently built a golgari EDH deck. I actually just finished it up today. Now I need to make it better without spending a large amount of money as I usually play in person.
The Varolzian Guard is the deck.
The main goal is stated in the description but it is pretty much ramp into things and kill with scavenging
no major limits but a minimum of friendship killing combos would be nice
the meta is pretty casual but with a touch of competitiveness as I want to win.

scramblesthedeathdealer says... #46
This is pretty far down on the list, but thank you for taking the time helping as many people as you are able to :)
- Link - Option 2 - Rith, Token Takedown
- Description - Designed to play with larger tokens and more +1/1 counter growth than the typical GW deck, but also do damage with alternate mechanics (e.g., Warstorm Surge , Hellrider , Mayael's Aria etc.)
- Limitations - Not really, I'm not a big fan of infinite combos because it feels like a player is just letting the game run until they "get tired of it", but everything else is fine by me.
- Budget - I've put in a little already, but I could probably go ~$50 more.
- Meta - The deck is designed for more casual play, maybe the occasional tourney if the opportunity arises? This would definitely be more for fun though.
Note: I'm not sure if my intuition is right, but this deck may need more ramping than it currently has?
Thanks again.
June 1, 2013 1:05 a.m.
Heyo
- Everyone draws!, mono-blue
- The deck revolves around making everyone draw lots of cards and eventually milling them out as it stalls the game. Also, fun/silly/diplomatic cards are encouraged.
- I do have combos in the deck, but not infinite, just recursive (active Archmage Ascension with Elixir of Immortality and, say, Cyclonic Rift ). I'm not past being mean, but definitely nothing very overpowered; the game is supposed to be somewhat fun, at least until I take complete control.
- Meh, I don't have a specific budget but I don't need anything too overpowered, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Cryptic Command would be okay perhaps, but not a Jace, the Mind Sculptor .
- I'll give you three guesses! Haha, mostly casual as I already have a more comp. deck. We tend to steer clear of infinite combos and such, and most of the decks are creature-based. There is one Sigarda equipment deck which annoys me though
Thanks for your time - that is, if you ever get through all these decks!
June 1, 2013 2:07 a.m.
Current Pet Project: Norin the Chaotic
The goal is to make the board state as hilarious as possible, and occasionally winning. I feel like it could use some trimming of the higher CMCs to make it faster, and possibly more graveyard recursion, but then I would start to lose cards that make the deck 'fun' for everybody else. It doesn't have much of a budget, though I cobbled it mostly out of old stuff I had lying around.
This is obviously a very casual deck, but I have lots of fun playing it in any meta.
It'd be awesome if Epoch looked at my deck, though I'm mostly posting to put this out in the wild, and to give other people ideas too.
You're doing the EDH community a great service!

Hey, this is cool. Thanks.
I just started off wanting to use Adun since it put me in Jund and I think his artwork is really rad. I ended up going with a tokens/devour sub theme in addition to reanimation. Generally I win off of Living Death-ing. I honestly really only cast Adun if I'm going to do stupid shit like saccing and reanimating Sakura Tribe Elder to ramp or if I just really need to get a creature from my yard.
Any and all suggestions are welcome.
I like to look at EDH decks as long-term projects, so there isn't too much of a budget. I might put off getting something if I think the price is going to go down within the next few months or something though (Craterhoof Behemoth).
Certainly not tournament-level competitiveness; however all of the decks I play with do things and do them effectively. So I guess casual.

Hiya! I am really interested in getting some feedback on my deck aetherling and clone deck
It basically revolves around cards that say:
"put target creature card from play into owner's hand" so that I can play the cloning/copying again. Perhaps if an opponent plays a better creature than what I have cloned, I can return the clone/copy to my hand and play it again, copying the better creature. I also have the option of cloning/copying AEtherling.
If all goes according to play, I could potentially destroy all permanents with Worldslayer and exile my AEtherlings in response in order to protect them.
I know it's kind of crappy but I hope to get some responses and suggestions. I just started playing after a 7 year gap so any help would be appreciated!
