“This is pretty mean, but it’s also pretty expensive so don’t feel like you need to put this in your deck” Best EDH advice ever

[@Thoughtsinflite]

This commander was overlooked. I built her immediately and she as been incredibly fun to play.

[@matthoward6130]

Got a decklist online?

[@BuckShotTherapy]

I just built her a couple of days ago but have only solitaired on my own just to see what she can do and so I don’t take to long when I actually play her in a pod lol it does happen with me when I build a new deck sometimes

[@amodking]

I’m actually afraid on what other players judge it while playing against me. I’m a player that’s more about the experience of playing, sure I play to win but I don’t want to ruin the experience of people at the table either.

[@Darkgamer39]

Everytime I watch dj's deck profile, I always end up wanting to build the deck

[@vazp3]

Is there an extra "hello everyone, my name is DJ" at the beginning or am I tripping?

[@nickatwork]

yep, definitely an editing error lol

[@TheSpiritombsableye]

Ye is testing his waters as a DJ.

[@Kurogetsu1]

He made a token copy of himself

[@NatesLegend]

It’s a storm deck so DJ cast his intro twice to synergize with his commander

[@michaelturner2806]

You're not alone, I heard it but I thought it was one of my weird browser addons

[@d9_1056]

Don't worry about expensive cards guys. Just proxy them.

[@Flatwing]

Glad you got to make Rionya, I was itching to make her!

[@mrkhan17]

“Ashlen needs 15 damage to the face” LMAO

[@angelsepulveda9211]

I kept reading this commander when the decks came out and was like this one is awesome just unsure what the split is between spell vs creatures. Great DJ!

[@njmaloney25]

Humble defector is some great secret sauce for this deck!

[@notveryoften]

wait that's genius, i love it :D

[@minerrobjojo6775]

Goblin Bombardment could be really good to sac off all those tokens that are going to be exiled. Also lets you get those solemn death triggers and draw a bunch of cards!

[@digidestined9336]

Flame Jab is a really underrated card I don't see in a lot of lists. Multi-spelling with your excess lands seems real good.

[@TheCrimsonKing101]

Seven Dwarves! He has his own coat of arms. And its dwarves.

[@mmartak]

Excellent video. I had taken Rionya into a completely different direction (focusing on janky energy counters), but I am actually excited to repurpose that experiment into something along these lines.

[@Nosferat_AN]

great video, i just want to point out a little audio glitch right in the beginning around 0:10, not that i mind you greeting us viewers twice in one video though ;)

[@minacapella8319]

So this has become my main commander, and not just because of how good she is. I literally was playing a game of pathfinder king maker, over roll20 for multiple years with a red headed bard-mage (battle herald) named Riona, who had a pretty big focus on fire magic when this card came out... Dressed almost exactly the same too, it was just so much of an impossibility. But I had to have her... and I already had a lot of cards that weren't getting used to make a formidable deck with her. Fast forward awhile and uh, my deck makes people unhappy lol.

[@Ranis555]

People definitely slept on this one. The first time i played my build I accidentally killed all of my opponents on turn 5 by making 8 fanatics of mogis. Rionya is nuts.

[@origaminosferatu3357]

Yep consistent turn 3-5 wins is why my playgroup hates it. :P

[@martinolsen7183]

I’ve been thinking about tearing apart my Brudiclad list and making it mono red with Rionya at the helm. The fact that she does the copying could make the deck smoother instead of having to devote many slots for copy effects that my Brudiclad deck needs. She also works good in my Henzie deck!

[@BrandoThompson]

I've wanted to build Rionya Fire Dancer because of Dave Matthews Band

[@jpwood9180]

I built her as a Dragon Storm deck! I was so excited when I saw her

[@matthoward6130]

Super cool idea

[@CommanderQuest]

you can use the youtube editor to cut out the extra "hello everyone, my name is DJ" in the beginning

[@TheHunter128]

shhh no bad jumbo this was my secretly really good commander no one was talking about

[@pauldyson8098]

Dana Roach's Reki is the OG creature storm deck. This is awesome, too, though!

[@spideyn]

I actually built this to be my high power deck and I made it a lot like Godo but with more suffocation effects for the opponents. Port Razer can also server the same purpose as Combat Celebrant and Lightning Runner.

[@admiralJONK]

this deck looks nuts

[@michaelturner2806]

When I saw this I thought everybody would look for etb effects, so I went looking for Ltb effects that would trigger on exile. Firemaw Kavu and Spitebellows came to mind, but those deal damage to creatures only.

[@ArthurC7]

I just finished building this commander! It's incredibly fun and explosive to play!

[@MadHatterTCGS]

One card I really like atm in this deck is priest of urabrask. Cast six spells for example get six copies all making 3 mana. Couple it with horizon stone or leyline tyrant and you could get lots of mana generation over time or through infinite combat shenanigans

[@guylortie5238]

Oh yeah Rionya!!

[@origaminosferatu3357]

Oh no my secrets are revealed!! I've been brewing this since it came out. My playgroup already hate it.

[@kaibatoctoy6032]

Such a fun commander, I’d recommend basalt ravager as a budget option instead of terror of the peaks. Whilst I was gold fishing I found it to be a great copy target making 24 copies of it dealing over 600 damage on etb 🥲 Also finally a deck where it feels great to play humble defector!

[@mizzogames]

Please let me know the background music name at 3:56

[@cinaedpv]

How about warstorm surge and malignus in the deck? It would get around damage prevention since damage from malignus can’t be prevented and warstorm surge states that it is malignus doing the damage.

[@dominickkrahnstoever7362]

Was the decklist he linked for an earlier version? It's missing several of the cards he talks about in the video like Sundial of the infinite, Tibalt's Trickery, lithoform engine, and strionic resonator. He also talked about to combo with Dualcaster Mage and heat shimmer/twin flame, he has both heat shimmer and twin flame in the list but no the Dualcaster Mage.

[@matthoward6130]

He often talks about way more than the cards he includes just as a 'you could also'.

[@noxarcana3660]

Im confused about the tokens do they enter 1 by 1 or all at the same time??

[@josepagan4889]

Instead of creature storm you built a "greeting" storm 😄

[@ArtnGarden]

Hey do you still use your patreon?

[@alvmr8397]

Why when I go to tcg player it’s 75 cards what am I missing 😭

[@ceulgai2817]

When you said "creature storm," I thought you meant like Animar lol

[@marcusdavenport9526]

could this go in a zada deck????

[@Thoughtsinflite]

Also Surge to Victory is kinda busted in this deck

[@CommanderQuest]

you only need 1 creature to clone at once, I think you went too heavy with those

[@lukasm5343]

You forgot Hellrider

[@True_Ronin]

Ummmmmm hello Kiki Jiki
