Emry, Lurker of the Loch Deck Tech | Beezy's Personal Deck

Emry, Lurker of the Loch is one nasty commander! This deck is aiming to self-mill until all cards (except one) are left, and then completely steamroll everyone else at the table by doing a lot of infinite things. This is Beezy's personal deck, and it is conclusively not lame at all and is in fact amazing and awesome.

Love this deck with a passion. Made mine a few months ago and emry is so much fun especially with her "affinity for artifacts" effect. There's an artifact from original mirrodin that turns lands into islands that I love running so much!

[@NitpickingNerds]

She's just SO strong and lets you play a lot of magic. The cost reduction part is actually just silly good

[@ryangodin6857]

Interesting take on emry. I took the route of comboing off and wining wining by milling out other people or creating a huge arcbound ravager or aetherflux reservoir. You get it.

[@NitpickingNerds]

It's really a Nexus of Fate deck, but I think Emry is the best general for it by a lot though. The four cards milled really add up from casting her and it can give opponents the tough choice of letting me cast a spell from my yard every turn or milling four and thinning out my deck even more.

This has been in my Watch Later since it came out. OMG though, I'm so excited about this build. I really loved Emry when she was spoiled but couldn't think of anything but a strict artifact matters deck and I already have one of those. Thanks so much for sharing! love personal deck series

[@NitpickingNerds]

Wow, thanks! This is a sweet deck to pilot for sure. We will have to do another one of these soon!

[@jamisonbebiak7917]

Love you guys! Big fan of both your magic expertise as well as your back and forth dynamic! Great to see one of Beezy's personal decks!

[@NitpickingNerds]

Thanks for the nice comment! We have now done Joe's Maelstrom Wanderer, Yuriko, and my Queen Marchesa deck as well.

[@alekpalkowski3854]

Emry has the potential of setting off so many combos as win cons. You can also draw out your deck if you have lotus petal, Sai Master Thopterist and an untap etb effect like Mirran Spy with Emry on the field. This combo gives infinite draw, infinite thoptors and infinte any mana. I was lucky enough to have those cards in my starting hand :D

[@bobbyfasciano4137]

4:30 Conspiracy Theory Time: Walking Atlas was released in world wake, the set before the colorless but not artifact Eldrazi. What if Wizards wanted to hint at the Eldrazis appearance next set, so they made this card to be some pseudo-eldrazi thing, but then somewhere along the way in development they decided to just make it an artifact, changing the border but forgetting to change the text? Probably not what happened but a man can dream.

[@NitpickingNerds]

That's probably pretty spot-on, but it could also just be that with a lot of non artifact colorless cards in the next set they just missed it.Either way, keep dreaming Bobby

[@thunderwolf4124]

Nitpicking Nerds Warning be careful adding the cards I am talking about because it pushes emry close to cedh. other ways to go infinite with emry include chakram retriever or mirran spy with a self sacrificing 0 costed artifact makes infinite storm, brain freeze to mill yourself, grinding station also helps, nexus is okay but I like replacing it with walking ballista and stonecoil serpent to help against creature decks also aetherflux is a excelent combo epic / life gain card when you get taxed a ton. Spell skits helps with targeted removal on emry . Shimmer myr is an all star in the deck with pithing needle to allow for on demand shut down on commanders or other problematic activated abilities. If you want to be really nasty you can add mind slaver and lock your opponents of playing the game but not advised for most playgroups.

[@thunderwolf4124]

Also emry decks tend to go down two routes from what I see a artifact creature build trying to use kci and myr retriever loop from modern or a low costed bauble mana rock build trying to mill , storm, or drawing your library

[@PlayerThe90]

Leyline of the Void and Ashiok sends hello! Nice content btw. Keep nitpicking it Nerds!!!

[@NitpickingNerds]

The best part is neither of those work either. Nexus of Fate is dumb. "When multiple replacement effects want to modify the same event, the affect object (Nexus of Fate)’s controller will choose which effect to apply first. Once one of these effects has been applied, the other no longer applies since the card is no longer going to your graveyard." Ashiok won't have a chance to exile Nexus either, because the shuffling isn't a trigger and actually happens before the exiling of graveyards. Mwahaha! Pretty much the only way I can conceive to stop Nexus is counterspells like Dissipate and Force of Negation, and Praetor's Grasp and cards like that. And then we counter those spells and watch opponents cry

[@milohobo9186]

I, too, love Walking Atlas! Only recently I removed it from my Omnath deck and replaced it with Budoka Gardener//Dokai, Weaver of Life.

[@kalibflakey8450]

Love the channel ya'll! It would be pretty cool if you put up the multiple card images when you're talking about with combo's or things that interrupt them for a bit longer/more often. I understand if it adds too much editing and I love seeing you're faces! But as a newer player it'd help a lot to have those on screen when you're not as familiar with the cards. Even if they're smaller or towards the bottom. Still love the channel and ranking every commander is a work of art!

[@NitpickingNerds]

Thanks so much, we appreciate the feedback! This one got a little complicated, so we probably could have better represented what was going on in our heads. If you have any questions about any interactions or things going on this deck I'd be happy to clear them up here! Thanks for being awesome :D

[@kalibflakey8450]

I totally understand! Just thinking about putting some different combo's in a newer esper deck. Thanks so much for taking the time to read and respond!

[@BucketNakedz]

He's right. I always windmill my oreos into a cup of milk.

[@NitpickingNerds]

How often does the cup just fly out from under you and spill everything?

[@Frank.potion]

Wow.... Narset's reversal-reversal. Mad genius.

[@thetogtube2]

I love that mill is an option... and does it kinda feel like solitaire? like what other deck could you just play solo and see how fast you could win?

[@NitpickingNerds]

It's definitely not a deck you can play for an entire game night. It's good once or with higher power decks, because while you are frequently interacting, every interaction can boil down to "does this kill me?" If yes, stop it, if no, completely ignore it

[@thrillhouse4151]

And here I was thinking Windmill Slam was some sorta wrestling finishing move.

[@pookygallahad4749]

“If you enjoy preordain” Sold.

[@deadeye7924]

So one memey win con to use. Keep mirrari conjecture and mill yourself to 1. Then get back essential cards then use psychic spiral to force a player to mill the amount of cards in your grave and then shuffle it back in.

[@danielpatterson1475]

hi guys, the whole time you were talking about this got me thinking why doesn’t anyone who is playing mono blue decks run “Twincast” it’s a really great card - i mean a blue fork- why not ig narset’s reversal is better but just why not thanx for the content & listening

[@masonwright4199]

daniel patterson you can totally run it if you have spells in your deck you want to copy reversal has a lower floor and higher ceiling and it’s already pretty narrow I used to play it before reversal came out to copy what people were playing with reversal as an option it’s been sitting on the side line

[@andrewlaverghetta715]

It’s so weird to see an Emry deck that doesn’t have Mirran Spy OR Charkram Retriever. I wanted to see what others were doing. My easiest combos are with those and Emry. Can draw down with many many baubles, make a ton of mana with Lotus Petal, if you’ve got any of the things that trigger when you cast an artifact like the mage thing that draws a card when you cast an artifact or makes a thopter or myr when you cast an artifact…

[@CullenReck]

Getting more competitive, I approve!!!

[@NitpickingNerds]

We like sharing our personal decks since we have the most to say about them. Plus, maybe some day these will be on our gameplay series! Well except this one because it's probably not entertaining to watch lol

[@Turn2Ugin]

Definitely a deck that needs policing, big ups my man 👊

[@NitpickingNerds]

It's tough to interact with so you gotta get old fashioned and beat face!

[@jasonsteavens158]

Golden egg instead of mind stone? Guaranteed card draw everytime its cast? Possibly Magewright's Stone for multiple Emry activations?

[@NitpickingNerds]

Golden Egg is a little pricey to replace itself, whereas the Baubles do it for free, and while the deck loves to have Emry out and will often be playing her, I don't think the Stone helps the main game plan of just ripping through our deck as fast as possible. I do think Mind Stone is a little weak I wonder what a replacement could be for it!

[@kris1822]

rest in peace will shut it down untill bounced back to hand and played again but yea this deck is deff good lol

[@haka666]

ima buy it >:D ty

[@zerowolf9938]

Love the deck tech, as much as I'd love to build it I don't think it would play well in my group. Two of the players play very heavy graveyard hate decks. Would there be a viable way to get around it? One of them plays a version of Lord Windgrace that bounces land like crazy and they bounce their Bojuka Bog constantly to blow up graveyards to keep them in check.

[@Radianxe]

Stifle and such

[@Nailgraizer]

That's what I hate about lab man, that Jace, nexus of fate and Thassa's Oracle. It's SO easy to mill through your own deck (esp. In mono blue) that it ends up being how you win every game. I had to take Jace out of my Unesh deck because it became "can you stop Jace? I win."

[@NitpickingNerds]

Yeah honestly it was way easier than I thought when I first started playing the deck. Thought Scour, Mental Note, and random cantrips like that just put you 3% closer to "winning" for literally one mana

[@jakeapplegate6642]

It has the drawback that you are not really affecting the boardstate while you mill yourself and if someone makes you shuffle your graveyard into your library you have to start over. Honestly I think it is kinda fun to race to the bottom of your deck.

[@PawzBrownMTG]

Do you use manifold key as well? Great video guys keep it up

[@NitpickingNerds]

We don't have any mana rocks that make more than two mana, and only six creatures besides Emry so it is not a right fit in this deck

[@PawzBrownMTG]

Manifold key untaps other artifacts that is what I was thinking

[@Turn2Ugin]

Beezy please tell me you have the sexy Emry deck box and/or sleeves to match. They're so cool.

[@NitpickingNerds]

Unfortunately no, she lives in a deck apartment with four roommates 😅

[@Brooks0511]

I was thinking about emry with intruder alarm with phyrexian alter and a ornithopter in the grave infinite Mana infinite etb and infinite storm

is 700 dollars really considered "not expensive"

[@ultra2019]

I don't like how you can play fetches that don't fit the color identity, Emry is an instant classic though

[@NitpickingNerds]

Yeah, it's a little lame. Powers this deck up a lot since you can now play up to FIVE cards that are functional copies of Mystic Sanctuary

[@psychozen7169]

I have emry in my urza deck maybe just maybe I should make emry the commander and put urza in the 99?

[@NitpickingNerds]

Both cards are insanely good, I am actually not sure which is better it probably comes down to synergies in the 99, as I think each deck is probably built differently

[@psychozen7169]

@@NitpickingNerds well in my urza deck Everytime I draw emry I feel like I cannot lose from that point

[@LegendLeaguer]

@@psychozen7169 remember you always have access to Urza if he's your commander. I've got Sliver Overlord in my First Sliver deck, but switching them out doesn't work too well because the deck is built around chaining through multiple sliver casts and churn through the deck. Spending 3 mana to search a specific sliver, cast it, and only getting that 1 sliver is fine, but my deck instead casts 1 sliver, gets about 3-4 slivers, as well as abusing 0 mana suspend cards to cascade into at the bottom end. You've got to see if your deck is built around having Urza out or if Urza compliments the deck and Emry could equally fill that role
