Veyran deck combo synergies

Deck Help forum

Posted on May 13, 2021, 7:28 a.m. by Alsatio

Hello everybody! I'm trying to make this deck fun and playable, but I feel like it lacks a little bit of synergies between cards and combos. The deck is meant for the Centurion Commander Format, but any suggestion is welcome!

Do you have some time to take a look and give some feedback here or on the deck page?

The deck is Veyran, Voice of Duality [Centurion] .

Thanks in advance!!

Could you explain the basics of the format? I built a Veyran EDH deck that absolutely SMACKS. (via combat lol)

Thanks for replying!!

Well.. Centurion Commander is a format played as far as I know mostly in Italy. It has the same rules for deckbuilding as EDH (only legendary creatures or planeswalkers that states explicitly that can be commanders), but it starts with 25 Life Points and is a 1v1 best of three match.

Due to the small pool of life, ramping and first 3 turns management are highly emphasised.

ok, ok, thanks for the info!

Firstly, little tidbit of info back to you;

I have turn 3'd several people (21+ commander damage), several times, even with a low tempo draw.

That being said, combat. Combat, combat combat. I built my Veyran a little more spell-slingy, but god, does cantrip combat hurt.

I'll try to leave a somewhat detailed list of what I use, but this is to let you know that I'm on it!

So, here goes:

Centurion just kinda sounds like a CEDH deck, imo lol.

With that being said, most CEDH decks prioritize speed, and that comes at a price; (literally) with plenty of cheap rocks to make sure you have mana/colors at your disposal, you can easily pump out huge damage, relatively cheaply, as far as the cantrips go.

Want easy games? Try this:

Turn 1: Land, 1 Mana Rock

Turn 2: Land, 2 Mana Rock (Maybe Veyran)

Turn 3: Brute Strength , Temur Battle Rage , Slip Through Space , Brute Force = Death.

Here are some I use, seperated by category:

Double Strike: Temur Battle Rage , Assault Strobe , Psychotic Fury , Buccaneer's Bravado , Raking Claws

Haste: Expedite , Crimson Wisps , Accelerate , Fever Charm

Evasion/Unblockable: Distortion Strike , Slip Through Space , Artful Dodge , Crypsis

Protection: Dive Down , Mizzium Skin , Glint , Shell Shield , Lazotep Plating

Power Pump: Rush of Blood , Balduvian Rage , Dynacharge , Unleash Fury , Sure Strike , Brute Strength , Titan's Strength , Rouse the Mob , Infuriate

Other than that, I run some value cards, like Birgi, God of Storytelling  Flip, Storm-Kiln Artist , and Aetherflux Reservoir to just go on, and on, and on, and on, so on and so forth. Plenty of Draw Spells to keep the gas going, and some other Spell-slinging accoutrements.
