Boros with great card draw ánd massive damage | Taii Wakeen edh

[@TheSmartCinema]

Some picks are... questionable..? I mean, a Defiler in an instant/sorcery deck..? And Ojer Axonil that will screw your card draw on your commander..? The other suggestions are just fine, but those two are literally anti-synergistic

[@SlowUnpacking]

Defiler I put in for the pinging effect, you still have a bunch of red permanents entering too. But I think goblin bombardment could go there as a better way to care about your creatures as a nice finisher instead of incremental value. Ojer Axonil will be anti synergy when you have your commander out, but you will not always have it out. So it's a nice replacement in the meantime I'd say. It's also recursive so at that point it feels like a new commander doesn't it?

Thoughts on jamming valakut? Seems like the heavy R manabase can support it

[@SlowUnpacking]

Did you know that there are 10 cards named Valakut in mtg? Haha, could be awakening, could be exploration here. But the pick I like most is the molten pinnacle. Expensive one though, which one did you mean?

[@Ravarix]

@@SlowUnpacking Haha fair, yeah Molten Pinnacle. Free lightningbolts!

[@SlowUnpacking]

@@Ravarix seems insane, you're right. Will put it in an upgrade basket because it's pricey to add now 😅

[@sjbarnette2122]

Had you considered raid bombardment style effects goblin bombardment?

[@SlowUnpacking]

Yes and no! I've thought about cards like impact tremors, which wouldn't be the best because of the low creature count. In a spell slinger deck I also noted that your creatures are too valuable to sack. But I have to make an exception for goblin bombardement, it's too good of a finisher. Thanks!

Pyrohemia is insane in this deck with stuffy doll / brash taunter

[@SlowUnpacking]

Ohh that's right! Who would've thought boros would get such a math deck though 😂. Putting the card in later today!

[@zwolfie4298]

With Taii and Toralf, God of fury out at the same time Taii dose not draw cards. Toralf makes it so you don't draw your cards. At least that's what I've heard.

[@SlowUnpacking]

Hmm depends on whether you're exactly dealing damage equal to a creature's toughness. But you're right they do run aside each other sometimes. Because Toralf needs you to deal excess damage and taii wants you to deal non combat damage equal to a creature's total toughness. But toralf and wakeen do work really well because taii amplifies damage and toralf amplifies it again! .

I'll never be able to hide the fact that I'm dutch, so I've just given up.
