I really like that the card tells the conclusion of what happened to the two monkeys on the uktabi orangutan card...

Titania's song is crazy with this guy, "Each noncreature artifact loses all abilities and becomes an artifact creature with power and toughness each equal to its mana value." makes it so token artifacts die instantly, including the bananas, never giving your opponents an opportunity to tap them for mana.

[@SavvySavy2]

I suggested this on a previous video, goes even harder with mycosynth lattice

[@SavvySavy2]

@@zackkelley2940 you're in green you don't need it, and you would only play it later game anyways when your opponents stop using their bananas

[@krimson459]

I love this commander deck so much, the combination of werid grouphug with a fun tribe that needs some love. A treasue package with Hellkite Tyrant, Old Gnawbone, and Dockside seems really good in this deck since you are already running the token doublers and people are more likely to have artifacts in play to benefit from.

[@homedoggy]

Scoured the internet for deck techs of this guy the last month or so. Loved your idea of putting punishing fire in even though I was skeptical. Closed out a game by returning it to hand from the graveyard and hitting my last opponent in the face for two. It was glorious

[@ChrislyCast]

Once again, great timing Demo! I just started brewing with this little fella as well. You're one of the best MTG content creators!

[@barrysetser3909]

This deck is just bananas! Might go back and count how many times Demo has to say "bananas"

[@MoMoVsMTG]

Great Deck Tech always love the content, minus one point for no monkey cage for flavor.😂

[@brettwolfelodge7379]

So cool. I'm excited to see a Gameplay video with this guy

[@radiofreegamer]

Rolling up to the play group with this deck and a bunch of bananas - get that in-game mana and the IRL potassium

[@casthomassen7561]

I actually have a tradition with my play group where I keep bringing more and more bananas every time. We're up to 12.

[@serrotnodnarB]

just built myself a kibo and got myself a pound of banana runts! it was a hit last commander day. lots of fun and full of flavor 🍌

[@brianwalters8641]

I just can't bring myself to use Changelings/Shapeshifters in tribal matters decks. Just seems too cheap and I would feel dirty.

[@shawnmyer2747]

Trying to limit those. I might paint monkey faces on them to feel a bit better about it.

[@PerpetuallyTiredMillennial]

If only Ragavan and Doubling season didn't cost so damn much. There is a cheap Ragavan token and plenty of proxy options for doubling season at least.

[@SirGrimLockSmithVIII]

You say Golem really weird lol

[@Nack93]

And mispronounced hierophant and raiju

[@MTG_Brewzl]

This sweetens my day. Really like your Iteration of Kibo.

[@thelunchlady8276]

Got Ageless Entity in a Gruul lifegain deck as my finisher with Fling and the like. Works suprisingly well.

[@Subteram]

Apes together strong 🐒

[@darkrexkigntstone8773]

🙊 🤝

[@Dwightlover11]

Masked vandal does get counters for being an ape, but worth noting that it EXILES an artifact on etb, so the artifact does not go to the graveyard and does not trigger kibo

[@petermason7221]

Powerleech seems a great addition as well with the lifegain theme!!

[@mikeheximer7638]

As to availability he is the launch day promo for jumpstart 2022 in alternate art foil. Check with your LGS. I plan to have a commander deck already in paper to play at the store after the event.

[@nanya524]

I went all in with Ape and Monkey tribal!

[@oracrest]

I want to run this commander and keep a bag of banana runt candies to use as banana tokens

[@Acadieman]

Another fun changeling that isn’t in your decklist is Realmwalker! Specially if you wanna lean more towards Ape or Monkey creature types. Gruul Monkey deck sounds fun! I specially like the idea of a monkey - fling themed deck lol

[@noobiousmaximus]

Hey demo loved the deck tech what do you think of auntie blyte?

[@deadlineuniverse3189]

This one goes completely banana

[@dreddbolt]

If I could find enough ways to make multiple bananas, I would put in the artifact pinging dudes from Baldur's and Kaladesh (or Æther Revolt?) along with Ghirapur Æther Grid. That, and there's an ogre from some Mirrodin set and a Dominaria (?) orc which can turn the bananas into deadly projectiles by throwing them really hard.

[@TheRoximus]

Also there's something there with being able to go infinite with kibo and thousand year elixir

[@thrasherftw]

Instill energy and nature’s chosen are good for being able to untap and use the banana ability.

[@Snensvin]

Where do I get the banana token?? Can’t find it on cardmarket 😢

[@nexustormod4754]

another good card to add could be umbral mantle, if you pay three you get to y tap, AND get +2/+2 until end of turn, stack that with the bananas you save up, add stuff that generates extra bananas and you could prolly get infinite life and infinitely strong commander

[@Parthet]

If I end up building this I am going to include Uktabi Kong and rule 0 it 😂 Aside from that I really like Titanias Song in this deck.

[@mublysnubly3407]

@@zackkelley2940 because it's a silver border card... Duh 🤦. Obviously people aren't gonna care but by default silver bordered cards are illegal.

[@nickatwork]

Wow this deck looks REALLY fun. Any budget suggestions for replacing Doubling Season and/or Ragavan? Wish I had em' but unfortunately not haha.

[@PlasmaTheBlue]

Proxy them if your playgroup is cool with it.

[@nickatwork]

@@PlasmaTheBlue yeah that's pretty obvious, but I was just curious about budget friendly alternatives that aren't just proxies.

[@ska1d]

@@nickatwork Primal Vigor isn't necessarily Budget, but its half the price of Doubling Season. Ragavan doesn't really have a replacement unless you're just looking for the ability to exile cards and then play them.

[@PlasmaTheBlue]

@@nickatwork Second Harvest if you don't need the permanent type. Otherwise there are no real budget permanents.

[@cortesdogodoyzera6998]

MONKEY CAGE BEST MONKEY CARD IN THE GAME >:)

[@Shalrii]

Mycosinth Lattice would be awesome in this deck. And if you include Doubling season you have to include hardened scales ;D I think DS is a bit overrated, 5 mana cost in this deck just to get one more treasure doesnt sound like its worth it

[@soulassassin0g]

We need more monkey cards. I want to build a monkey tribal deck so bad lol.

[@tasteoftacos]

Nice deck tech! Hope you spill the tea when you construct an Auntie Blythe deck

[@uhfrank]

im working on one myself because its so interesting to build around hurting yourself to get ahead. im going to make it a bit of a bully style deck called "Why are you hitting yourself" which works on a few levels where im hitting myself, but also stealing their creatures to hit them lol. im really excited to see what his take will be as he always comes up with really cool ideas i wouldnt have considered

[@strangebynature2798]

My thoughts went to Ancient Runes with something like Karn to keep them on opponents board

[@idkjustleavemebeplease]

Deffinetly making golden banana tokens and proxying the og DK

[@kadenbrown3656]

Great Idea, Share them when it's complete. II want these!

[@wallyland]

"GolEM"

[@sirstax7023]

It’s okay to admit it…. You’re all here to see who is gonna address the (Goal-em) or (Goal-uhm) in the room, huh??

[@Connor-te6hb]

Did you really miss including liquimetal torque + coating or am i just tired?

[@cortesdogodoyzera6998]

Monkey cage would be a good fit

[@cosmicprison9819]

Make Uktabi Kong from Unhinged commander-legal already.

[@justenleonas]

No gorilla shaman? I mean I know he isn't the most effective artifact removal, but he can still do it more than once, adn without putting himself in danger.

[@uhfrank]

gorilla shaman is the first one that appears on his deck list in the description

[@justenleonas]

@@uhfrank And that is what I get for basing everything on the video, adn not looking at teh actual list.

[@howardjones1388]

Damn, no Vandalblast mention?

[@MHardcore]

What’s the accent? Where are you from? Never heard it (Golem) called a Goal-em.

[@recentibus9970]

i tried four different commanders for monkey tribal and it really sucked. Kibo made my day.

[@markc6571]

Maskwood Nexus is so OP

[@hipstevius]

Loving this, I really want to keep it apes and monkeys but so many of them are just soooo bad lmaoo...I'm imagining the monkeys and apes riding dragons and stuff now instead

[@thenerdwithoutfear8378]

I like the deck tech but Masked Vandall sadly doesn't trigger Kibo so I'll propably pass on that. The rest looks great tho👍

[@bigmacmm5]

Early gang

[@jacksonletts3724]

RIP artifact tribal commanders playing against this deck

[@connorl0204]

Everyone seems to overlook Tuskguard Captain and the rest of the Outlast creatures when looking for ways to give creatures with counters on then extra abilities. Makes me sad.

[@uhfrank]

definitely a nice alternative, but the ones he put are gives trample and fetches lands for the same mana cost and another that gives 2 counters and trample for less mana. but definitely a great consideration if you want to slot in one more

[@connorl0204]

@@uhfrank duskmantle shell is cheaper, but if you arent blinking it, you lose some of the value. Tuskguard can keep growing on its own if you have an extra green mana laying around.

[@uhfrank]

@@connorl0204 yep, like i said, its a great suggestion. all 3 have their benefits. also with maskwood nexus and that ape that blinks humans, duskmantle is doing great work!

[@connorl0204]

@@uhfrank i especially like abzan falconer in my edgar deck. Thats a fun include that has absolutely zero flavor for the deck lol

Monke👍🏻

[@chrisgebben2043]

minor mistake "Ich-Tekik" makes a phyrexian golem token not golem (he and the tokens got hit by the errata wave) other than that. Amazing deck tech on kibo

[@xwolfpiratex]

I keep seeing masked vandal in these decklist but it doesn't make sense to me since it EXILES opponents artifacts, they do not go into the GRAVEYARD. Am I missing something ?

[@MK-13337]

2 mana monkey is great.
