Waking up a saturday morning to one of your videos while eating breakfast, life's good

[@Phelps285]

Thanks for putting an infinite combo in this deck. I personally really like having at least one in each of my decks. I'd really love to see them in future decks!

[@user-lt5ec3jx3g]

I opened Niv mizzet as my promo during the guilds of ravnica prerelease Im so happy you finally did a vid on niv !

[@cymbaline4384]

I’ve watched a lot of your deck techs and I must say that this one is absolutely extraordinary!

[@Rangersly]

I've just finished building a Niv-Mizzet, Parun EDH deck. But your video just gave a ton of new ideas for it. Thank you! (BTW, the title of the video says "tribal" but this deck is not).

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Yeah that was a copy paste error, thank you for catching that!

[@matheusrudzevicius6448]

Well its totaly tribal, draw a card tribal that is

[@andyspendlove1019]

Silverclad Ferocidon is a super spicy include!

[@Redwud3381]

I had originally thought about making my version of this as Wizard Tribal for Vanquisher's Banner reasons. Now I'm having second thoughts about it, lol.

[@tymiller8639]

@@Redwud3381 i don't remember the name of it but there is a blue enchantment from the dragon deck from c17 that has the draw a card part of banner

[@danalinchristania5163]

I have been waiting this commander for a while :D Thank you so much! ^^

[@victorgabrielvalenzuela9512]

This is great, im starting my first commander with niv-mizzet and you gave me some nice ideas to improve my deck, im gonna check the reasonably upgraded version 👌 thanks Mitch!

[@paulwood1163]

Thank you for adding the swap-out list. This is a very big help.

[@Kodywit-AK]

I love these videos, I’m surprised no one has had this idea

[@ZerkMonsterHunter]

Niv! yes my favorite smart Dragon boi! thank you for this deck tech, I've been trying to brew a Niv-Mizzet deck with your locust god deck as a base ever since I got my foil of firemind in January. this is just what the doctor ordered, excellent work!

[@saturnacevedo]

I haven't even started the video and to know you're doing the new Niv Mizzet, has me excited!

[@sammoss226]

Teferi's Ageless Insight is great too. Locust God aswell. Started building this deck and will probably get a lot of the cards mentioned in this vid. Thanks!

[@TheRealBitterbub]

Awesome. The fact you made this makes me super happy. Niv-Mizzet is without a doubt my favorite guild leader.

[@Suo_kongque]

My favourite magic character along with bolas and Ugin… might have something to do with the fact that they were my first cards given to me by my father but…

[@bryankopkin6869]

I feel that all the little names that u come up with in the top right are under appreciated! I love them lol

[@kaerr_blockbuster]

can´t wait to try it, thanks a lot

[@jones8528]

Omg, I was lookingfor some ideas to create a list for niv parun commander, cause it is my favorite card in the game, and you've shown me an incredible list, thanks a lot, im gonna make a great use of it

[@jovannysanchez6886]

Ordered the deck! Thanks for this fin looking deck! Can't wait to piss off my play group 🤣🤣

[@PhoenixLaw92]

I KNEW IT! I CALLED THIS YESTERDAY!

[@flusterfluff]

This reminds me a lot of my Riku deck. I'm probably going to take a few suggestions from this to include in that, eventually

[@jacklegends2799]

As always, the channel delivers its good. Love the vid.

[@sonofgonzo5805]

Opened 2 foil niv mizzet paruns at a prerelease. Now i have a use for em, yay!

[@pepperbc8680]

This is the one deck I have been waiting for......

[@FartSexOfficial]

I just made a Niv Mizzet deck. Then you mentioned the combo I can use with curiosity.

[@cpitts385]

I recently rebuilt and upgraded my Niv-Firemind deck and included a dragon tribal sub theme by using scourge of valkas and it adds a nice wrinkle to the deck.

[@amadomartinez9816]

Wow, it's pretty awesome how close to this my deck actually is. It reassures me that my deck is pretty good. I did get a few great ideas from your video to make mine better. Thanks so much for finally doing Niv. Do you have any plans to do Yennett soon? My little brother just started playing and he loves that card. Hes looking for ideas to make his deck better.

[@davidfrischer7075]

I have been waiting for this 😄

[@chis332]

this is my commander!!!! omnispell adept, double cast, book devourer, rise from the tides, sunbirds invocation, spelltwine, are my bombs that i like to play... Heck yeah love for the NIV

[@toolbag2691]

I started to build this deck it's gotten even better with the strixhaven release especially the red blue commander deck

[@n00exec]

Beautyful!, i'm using your Locust budget base, upgraded to a full focused deck, and it's a LOT of fun!, so basically i have the 99% of this deck! i'm gonna test it :D ty for your amazing work, you make possible to new players to join us in EDH :D

[@alexbiersner3350]

Once again, quarters bringing out another dope deck

[@thecomfycompie3415]

Literally just in the middle of making a deck based around anafenza, kin-tree spirit.

[@MemeApocalypse]

Great video, keep up the Awesome work! A few suggestions for commanders: Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons (You've done one on the Scorpion God, so why not?) Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim (Very flexible, powerful ability once it get's rolling, good amounts of versatility when it comes to deck-making and playstyle) Sidisi, Brood Tyrant (Like Ayli, very flexible in the number of routes the deck can go) Nath, of the Gild-Leaf (Hand-control and Token spawn) General Taziri (Allies! 'Nuff said) Sigada, Heron's Grace (Human-tribal and graveyard reanimation)

[@lopyhq2817]

Every time that I think of a deck tech that Im hoping youll do it comes out in a day. Without fail. Today it took 10 minutes

[@starlightsilverwing9131]

Pulled the big dragon yesterday. Nice

[@scotthorn3996]

I have a Locust God deck that I was thinking of converting into Niv-Mizzet Parun, since Niv is my favorite character in the lore. Attaching Basilisk Collar onto Niv would be hilarious.

[@cameronlancaster7596]

Scott Horn I pulled a Basilisk Collar and a Teferi’s Puzzle Box in a mystery box and immediately got to making a Niv deck

[@yoricktop8649]

Mana geyser is criminally underplayed in casual commander if you ask me

[@ehallam08]

Agreed. I've played one and snagged 32 red mana!

[@Beldurkin]

I love it, but last time I played it my little brother hit me with Silence 😥

[@jemm113]

Play geyser into cornucopia for a ton of mana on each turn. Then play some counterspells to keep it in play! (or just don't all the mana, but a reasonable amount after other spells.

[@williammaykel138]

Wow, I wish I could still get Wayfarer's bauble for $.18 LOL

[@skimpos]

In my niv mizzet parun deck I run brain in a jar, it’s so good to get out your spells for free and it’s only 0.20 now on tcgplayer

[@Afogel0126]

I lost my mind at 12:08 😱

[@everettstatz1682]

Fun fact, I recently built a Yidris, Malestrom wanderer wizard tribal deck and included the Niv Mizzet/Deathtouch combo in it thinking that I was pretty clever and that no one had thought of it before hand lol but I was wrong 😏. I still have yet to actually try it out though but I think it'll be hilarious when it happens cause no one will see it coming 😆. Anyways though, I love your channel and one day I wouldn't mind trying to build an actual Niv Mizzet deck.

[@adithyac1001]

Psychic spiral seems like a good tech

[@mariopalleschi3345]

Amazing deck! I’m really thinking about buying it since I love niv and I have a promo copy of the parun! :)

[@cereal2373]

I picked him at Fnm some time ago. Thought about building edh for him. Looks like a really fun deck ^^

[@nlb137]

Neko-Te could be a good 'reasonable upgrade' as well. It gives both pseudo-removal to Nivmizzle by letting him permanently tap creatures he damages, and effectively doubles the damage he deals to opponents.

[@mikeobliss4495]

WE NEED MOAR!

[@Foxribble19]

Love the deck though Mitch.😊

[@harrisono.324]

Opened niv mizzet in a pack, this will be really useful for me!

[@wyattsauve9277]

I built a badass phelddagrif because of you😁

[@AbyssArray]

So far 2/2 in multiplayer commander with Niv-Mizzet so far, super potent - one with Thousand Year Storm, Brass's Bounty, Past in Flames.. ended up having 102 treasures at one point.

[@TheEchoscapes]

Fiery inscription and erebor flamesmith are to budget cards that came out in the LOTR set that are great in this deck

[@shanemillard608]

Have you considered doing a video on how to go about and make commander decks? You main way of winning and 10 strategies is great

[@friedpinnapple]

I just picked up a whirlpool warrior for my brudiclad deck. Its good for when im missing a piece for making powerful tokens....or i have the locust god

[@cristiancontreras3702]

OMG Nice deck, i am a noob in commander and i like this deck, i will tested

[@addambarcelos]

Niv mizzet is sick. His damage can stack super easy

[@liemsolow3697]

Dude, I wanna see a mono-blue wheel deck. Like Kefnet or something

[@Pokeblockyt]

I actually recently took apart my niv deck

[@katanakid13]

You should make a Spellslinger Deck Tech sometime. We've got 2 Wheels, a Wizard Tribal with Adeliz, but no Izzet Spellslinger!

[@lemonlime5858]

Finally Niv-Mizzet

[@gille885]

Surprised you didn't add Locust God as a reasonable upgrade. My group likes to do two headed giant games for EDH and my partner used Nekusar, which I had Locust God and Mindmoil out in my Niz-Mizzet deck on top of drawing 5 cards per turn and had so many tokens while doing a ton of damage. Also had a game where I had Swarm Intelligence out and played Fateful Showdown and dealt like 80 damage. I recently thought about putting deathtouch on him and now I just thought about curiosity because of this video.

[@scott-e5548]

I was about to say if Grafted exoskeleton wasn’t in the upgrades but I feel like Negate can be replaced with counterspell so much better

[@FartRave]

Tempt with visions could be very powerful in this deck if you have psychosis crawler out. In a 4 player game you could potentially get 6 damage per card draw, making the curiosity combo have much less of a self mill issue.

[@Mirakelmannen]

Tempt with Reflections?

[@LuisRamirez-go8nq]

I love your videos. I have some days playing commander with friends. Can you do a Sygg, River guide $25 commander deck? I would really appreciate. This would be my first commander deck I build.

[@Ikhebhonger1]

I would love for there to be a wheel deck for Nekusar on your channel.

[@supercard9418]

Would you consider running Tibalt, Electrostatic Field?

[@jacobsanford4609]

I have a different version of this deck that is more cantrip focused but it is meant for one on one (not 1v1, even though it is capable for it), this build is still really interesting, the only thing I would say is if you run the reasonable upgrades that puts your hand to the bottom, really think twice before running alhammarret’s archive, just my thought process.

[@larsandersland851]

Teferi's Puzzle Box would be an excellent upgrade for this deck

[@ewok007]

among a lot of suggestions, the one that MUST BE in this deck: Narset, partner of veils (along with teferi's puzzle box) !!!!!! (also rise from the tides)

[@phillipp3940]

Would love to see a Queen Marchesa budget Deck with a control Theme, greetings!

[@dakotamcintire7419]

Any chance the next video could be a deck for Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow?

[@Tuturial464]

My favorite card from alligence

[@michaelstanard8147]

i have your izoni, thousand eyes deck that you made a while back, and ive been looking at you teysa karlov deck. my question for you is is there a way to combine the two decks, as i have a ghave, guru of spores. so i thought aristocrats and a graveyard deck should be able to combine pretty easy right?

[@tymiller8639]

Have you thought about throwing the mana ramp at the end right before mana base? I just think that would make more sense

[@izzyjin8013]

Now this is izzet.

[@izzyjin8013]

And man does watching this after watching the locust god video create quite the deja Vu effect.

[@brendaneichler5244]

Izzet? Izzet really?

[@snowsplat6937]

Hoping to see Raff Capashen someday :)

[@thenewlollipopjam8248]

Was gonna get say something about adding Glint Horn Buccaneer before I realized that it came out in January and this came out in February.

[@rowankeltizar5961]

How about Spiraling Embers with some recursion or copy effects? I find that it is a good spell based win-con when you have a ton of cards in hand and not relying on Niv or other permanents for damage.

[@adamo4228]

I think all niv-mizzets (excluding the reborn niv mizzet), make good sinergy between them

[@oom-3262]

wayfarer's bauble is the spikiest sol ring

[@Weros3019]

Could you guys make an Iroas budget commander list by chance?

[@Fantom_210]

Watched this video again today in Jan 2023 for inspiration on building a niv miz deck and this deck is now almost triple the price it was when you made it. $73.17 market 44.88 low

[@toedrag-release]

When he made these old video he included damaged value cards. Also prices fluctuates. In another year or so it'll be a $200 deck😂

[@davea.9927]

OMG OMG OMG OMG A RED / BLUE! I LOVE RED / BLUE! AUTO SUPER LIKE / LOVE! Edit: Crap I may have to hold off on my Adeliz. Edit 2: I'm on a Foiled kick...wish my back account was bigger

[@b_olson542]

The older I get, the more my back account gets strained.

[@prometheusrises]

This deck looks fucking crazy. I love it.

[@Redwud3381]

Would Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius have any point in this deck? I was building basically this exact deck and have a copy if it in there.

[@josephbrown4367]

Update channeled force must have for this deck.

[@Zendrig]

Here‘s a few key cards from my Niv-Mizzet the Firemind deck: Teferi‘s puzzle box, Sigil of Sleep, Chandra Flamecaller, Thought reflection, Past in Flames, Memory Jar, Wheel of Fate, Time Reversal, Jace‘s Archivist, Locust God.

[@catfoodbob1]

Pilgrims eye is basically a compass but cost 1 more

[@ethanlozier7603]

Honestly I made a deck but I didn’t even think of wheel. I just put a lot of normal draw spells and aggressive spells and a few planeswalkers. Maybe going mostly aggressive wash the best idea now that I see this video.

[@2dendre]

look at Jeleva... yes, I needed a bunch of cheap wheel effects; for reasons...

[@Pokeblockyt]

13:15 I'm pretty sure Mitch meant island not swamp

[@IceForPvMGaming]

Notification said tribal I was very confused lol

[@finebread8253]

You should do a Nekusar, The Mindrazer deck tech

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Would be a fun one! Maybe in the future!

[@jacebelerin7699]

Would you consider making a Reanimator deck one day (karador, Meren, chainer etc)

[@mikelong2756]

Would you say its safe to just include a locust god in the deck? Or to include a Niv In my locust god deck I already have? Lol. I have the firemind as one of my creatures already but not parun. Thinking it's worth grabbing a copy. Then if I ever want I can just switch the 2 commanders and pretty much play either with the same basic deck and plan

[@malmadork]

They are very similar, except this deck more focuses on playing and copying instant and sorcery spells...It wouldn’t be wrong to include locust god in here, or vice versa. I personally have built his locust god budget deck, but added some pieces of my own collection to it such as Niv Mizzet Parun and Jin Gitaxis

[@generalbochii]

I see no problem with vice versa. The whole point of playing magic is to build decks in a new and creative way. I personally put him in my niv edh but you could make the argumemt not to. I say buy him because from my experience, every time i have played niv unanswered it has won the game.

[@GiveItARest]

Having both Nivs in the same deck is a good idea. They not only work well together, they also give you the ability to adjust to different playgroups right before you start playing. Against counter/instant heavy groups, Praun can come in much easier and take advantage of your opponent's spell slinging. Meanwhile, against more creature-centric/aggresive decks, Firemind can replace the commander slot to allow more flexibility with its mana cost and potentially come out quicker(plus, his built in draw ability means you can save yourself a draw spell for later while still pinging off an important 1/1).

[@Tuturial464]

I play a locusts god in my parun deck. Also helps to have a token dual strategy as well. Laboratory mainic is also alt win Condition

[@sl7916]

Yes and yes. I've got both Niv's and Locust God in my Jhoria Weatherlight Captain deck and they are just insane. And I've added Locust God too my daughter's Niv deck. So much with the wow.

[@donarcangel1997]

I know its been 5 years from this but, looking it up, a lot of cards had upped in price like, a lot, example being diminishing returns, wich now cost nearly 7 dollars xd

[@wyattthomas9862]

Here 5 months later and now Niv is 45 cents so commander cost is included

[@Eddie_Joe]

I need gameplay on your decks.

[@forgottenone5843]

Got a fun deck for you General Tazri ally tribal

[@PhoenixLaw92]

Hey Mitch! I've got a question for you with regards to your prices. When you use the optimization feature on tcgplayer, are your prices for getting the cards through direct, or through getting multiple packages?

[@zeroXchaos1123]

I need to know this too, because I always get double the price they list

[@salgutierrez4710]

Now this Izzet

[@troonoob5310]

Alright guys I need some help I saw a comment on one of the other videos saying something about making a battle box out of some of these decks to have some budget decks and play board game style but I need help getting some that would play well together any ideas on which decks I should go with?
