Tatyova, Benthic Druid - EDH Budget Deck Tech $25 | Magic the Gathering | Commander

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who has supported the channel so far with your positivity and feedback! Couldn't do it without you all!

[@cardfightknights3512]

The Commander's Quarters aye good content

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thank you!

[@cubingexpress8875]

Amazing quality content for the size of channel. I was recommended your channel and I instantly subbed. Great job man. I hope you can monetize it so you can make more decks. Almost here from the beginning

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thank you and glad you are enjoying it! Let's hope ;)

[@crovax1375]

Just came across your channel and subscribed! For the commander storm cards, I'm going to build a Gyrus, Waker of Corpes deck and run Ghoulcaller, Gisa and Ashnods Alter as combo pieces. Those commander storm cards could get crazy big!

[@sachigame924]

Just for the record, for people asking him to do gameplay of these decks, I've bought this deck and it performs really well! (At least it stomped my friend's decks from the Commander Anthology he bought) Also this deck has a friggin infinite combo in it! You need: -Any 1 land on the field -Trade Routes -Retreat to Coralhelm -Skyshroud Ranger or Sakura-Tribe Scout When all of these are on the field, presumably after playing your land for the turn, you tap your land to use Trade Routes' first ability, and then you want to return any TAPPED land to your hand. Then, you tap Skyshroud Ranger/Sakura-Tribe Scout to let you play that land you just put back in your hand. Now, it triggers Retreat to Coralhelm's Landfall ability, allowing you to untap the creature you just tapped. Now everything is essentially reset and you can use that land again, doing this infinite times. Obviously that doesn't do anything by itself, but you can combine it with any Landfall ability on the field to have insane effects. When I was playing, I used my commander to essentially draw my entire deck into my hand, then I took 7 cards I wanted, discarded all of them, then activated Elixir of Immortality to put them back in my library. My next turn, I played Psychosis Crawler, which deals 1 damage to each opponent when I draw a card, so I just drew my whole deck again and zapped my friends down to zero! Psychosis Crawler also has power and toughness dependent on my hand size, so as a result I added a Reliquary Tower I had laying around into the deck, and I'm thinking of getting a couple other unlimited hand size cards for the deck, I was actually surprised when I realized they weren't already in the deck list.

[@samuelspencer5422]

thanks didn't fully understand the combo in video

[@loetapatoet3621]

Thx a lot sometimes i discard Trade routes but now i know how to use it

[@malign3158]

Sachi Game You zapped your friends, and now have no more friends

[@Genkenaar]

I also have been running this deck (or a slightly more expensive version of it) and I've only started playing tabletop MTG 4 days ago and I've already done some good matches and a win with this deck vs long-term (ex-)tournament players. Being able to have 10+ lands on within 4-5 turns really helps in EDH, especially in multiplayer.

[@mickyjo5]

Or just add simic growth chamber and make it bounce itself on entering the battlefield. With lotus cobra thats infinite mana

[@elijahmthompson2313]

*WARNING:* After fully upgraded.... when Tatyova is on the battlefield with lotus cobra it becomes a long non-deterministic combo where you search out fetches get a ton of mana draw, search out a land from the fetch, draw, and have a million mana..... This takes a long time to shuffle and draw in between searching for lands and it could lose you friends.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Haha thank you for the public service announcement ;)

[@moritzk4795]

Thats why you practice and optimize your drawing and shuffling skills and get used to all the trigger that happen. A friend of mine did this with his chulane deck. As I played this, to resolve all those triggers took me an eternity and he plays it out so smooth in 2 to 3 minutes. Same goes for my Chainer nightmare adept artifact reanimator, I'll try to get used to all the triggers I have and execute em as efficient as possible :)

[@tzera_rhuon]

'Friends are just enemies you haven't bored out of their mind yet.'

[@FordSimmons-Est]

Update: Upgraded this by removing a lot of the two drop creatures and the extra land artifacts with Omniscience, a few counter spells, some big creatures that care about lands, and some better land search cards. Probably replaced about 10-15 cards. Let’s just say I went 20 minutes on one turn stealing everyone’s creatures, playing lands, gaining life and making tons of beast tokens. This deck is SICK.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Nice!

[@moritzk4795]

Do you want to share the decklist if you still have it? :)

[@LoganB591]

Do you still have the deck?

[@FordSimmons-Est]

@@LoganB591 I do. Its changed quite a bit. But its still my baby!

[@LoganB591]

@@FordSimmons-Est do you recall the changes that you made or the deck now compared to the one in the video? I haven’t really made a Simic commander deck before and your description of the deck sounds fun

[@vitolombardo1440]

You should remake this deck. I feel as though a lot of these cards have gone up in price and there are a few new cards that are cheap and would make this deck better

[@qaylmaherali4840]

Has he done this yet?

[@TheLibr4rian]

second that +1 It would be great to see an upgrade of Tatyova deck.

[@SirCorn]

Just checking in to reiterate this sentiment in late 2022

[@bonnee123]

Checking in, an upgrade would be awesome! Conduit of worlds maybe a nice one to add

[@MrAvacardo]

I vote for this too

[@padfoot2116]

This deck....idk man. Focused might not be the right term for it. It’s incredibly powerful. Especially after adding a couple upgrades. I’ve played with it multiple times now and only lost to someone stealing my turn and getting lucky with decking me out. A lot of the power is that it has the potential for so many wincons. I added craterhoof, overwhelming stampede, and am looking at lab man. But really, it’s just insane. There’s just so much value and it’s really hard for people to stop everything you’re doing. Thanks so much for coming up with this, I’m in love with the deck.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad you are enjoying!

[@b_olson542]

I bought this deck. It is a surprisingly effective engine. For the uninitiated, you have to watch all of the many triggers. It definitely lacks a finisher, but your recommendations help to alleviate that. Great job on the deck and tha is for what you do.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thank you and glad you are enjoying it!

[@b_olson542]

As an aside, an Omnath Locus of Rage deck built using the first 5 tactics with only 2 card substitutions is very easy and a good budget idea.

[@andrewlaverghetta715]

Wow, this was released in August 2018 and it's currently January 2020. There's such a difference in how enthusiastic you are when going through your decklist. This is a point I brought up in one of your surveys. I'm so happy you're doing it the way you are now. I'm checking this out because I want to find a more tame deck to build to play against beginners that might not be as powerful as my more tuned decks.

[@BlaineTog]

This is really sweet, but I don't feel it's making the best possible use of all that ramp. The curve maxes out at 6 and we're going to end up with like 20-30 lands on the battlefield! Surely there's room for some tasty X-cost hydra or something? Blue Sun's Zenith would be really sweet, too, especially since we can also use it on ourselves in case everything goes wrong and we run low on cards in hand, plus it's only $1. It's not an X-spell but Aetherwind Basker could work really well with our token plan, generating an absurd amount of Energy and one-shotting people out of nowhere, even through a bunch of blockers. That one might be a little too Timmy, though. Ooo, here's a spicy idea: Sylvan Awakening to jank out wins. It even ignores Cyclonic Rift! I don't know if that's *good* per se but there's a certain poetic justice in beating people to death with your lands themselves.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

All great points and definitely good considerations for the deck! I definitely agree that the mana can be spent to cast one giant threat or to draw a ton of cards, I decided to go with a more wide approach and just cast as many ramp spells as possible to get as much value from all of the landfall triggers in this deck. As for Sylvan Awakening, that's definitely a good consideration as well, however I am very hesitant when it comes to turning my lands into creatures (even if they are indestructible) as it is still a huge risk since someone can just cast Settle the Wreckage, Aetherize, Aetherspouts, Evacuation, etc, and then you basically just lose. My approach is more, if I am up, I want to stay up and not take huge risks that could just lose the game on the spot. But everyone has a different approach and different amounts of risk they are willing to take on which is one of the things that makes magic so much fun!

[@intension7997]

BlaineTog dude I knew i recognized the name, your deck techs on tapped out are sweet

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

I'll definitely have to check them out!

[@intension7997]

The Commander's Quarters this deck tech was sweet too lol

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Haha well thank you

[@b_olson542]

Thank you for your budget decks. I recommend your videos and the other budget minded channels to my high school students who let me teach them to play. They are great for a noob just getting into the game and for starting with a template to upgrade. I'd even say that they are a better investment than the precons nowadays, but that is just me.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thank you so much for you support and for helping spread the word on the channel! I 100% agree, but that's just me as well ;) . Nothing against the precons, but they definitely need adjustments after you buy them to be considered a "focused" deck

[@M3WT-va]

It's wild to see how far Mitch has come in the past couple years.

[@nerdywayfinder1827]

Holy crap! A budget commander channel with good video format and powerful strategies!? It actually exists?!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks haha

[@FordSimmons-Est]

I bought many of these cards for the deck and tried it out today with a playgroup. I did add Courser of Kruphix and Runemap Excavator. The lifegain is incredible - I could have easily killed a player if I had a aetherflux reservoir out. I might add. The only drawback is the lack of finisher.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Reservoir is definitely a good consideration for the deck! And one of the many options for a finisher!

[@MegaAaron17]

I've been searching for a budget decklist using this commander! This is great, thank you!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Of course! Happy to help!

[@s0up391]

I love tatoyva but had trouble on maling her a deck so naturally I looked for the best deck teck and i fond this and it was awsome i love how creative it is you earned my sub.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for your support!

[@tribalkai]

LOVE my Tatyova deck. I never see anyone playing her in MTGO, so hopefully you encourage a few people to play her with this video!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Yeah she is pretty awesome! I hope so too!

[@danielr9160]

This is the first decklist I've ever seen since I've started playing Magic that I have absolutely wanted to build!

[@FordSimmons-Est]

Update #2: Played this deck in the South Carolina Commander Cup on 9/22. Ended up in the top 4 at the final table after 4 rounds of grueling 4 man pods. Finished third. When this deck goes off - it goes off. I added the new Multani and Sylvan Awakening. I also added Bribery. I took a 10-15 minute turn ending with killing my opponents with 6 creatures that were 60/60 with trample thanks to a stolen Craterhoof. The other game I went off on I had a 46/46 Multani with 34 8/8 Avenger of Zendikar tokens along with 43 2/2 lands thanks to Avenger of Zendikar and Sylvan Awakening. This deck is a BLAST and it’s going to be my permanent main competitive EDH project. Many thanks.

[@chrissalisbury7193]

What cards did you cut from the original deck to add Multani and Sylvan Awakening?

[@jsonart5317]

For upgrade: Add counterspells, deprive and soratami savant could be a good addition to the deck Constant Mist -> a fog effect with buyback More wincon: Multani, Blackblade Reforge

[@davekemp1808]

I had a very impressive Tat deck for a long time & the best counter? Thwart. FoW but bounce 3 Islands instead? Completely busted in Tat.

[@PlayMadness]

This is one of my favorite commanders! I'm going to build this deck right away. Great video as always! One small suggestion: when reading a card's text, I think you should read the current oracle text instead. It makes them a bit easier to understand.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks! And great suggestion! I will make sure I keep that in mind and try to be better about that in the future!

[@PlayMadness]

So I've been looking at some cards that might break from the 25c theme but will still make cheap additions to beef up the deck. What do you think about the $4 Nissa, Steward of Elements for some extra land drops and beaters and the $2.50 Avenger of Zendikar for a late game finisher?

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Great additions!

[@thedanath]

Ulvenwald Hydra would be great for this deck. with the possibility of having a bunch of lands out really quick this thing would get huge fast. It has reach so can block pesky flyers. Juts have to find a way to give it trample. Also primordial hydra while a little more pricey if not dealt with can just get huge really fast. or for the more "budget" theres Hungering Hydra

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

All great potential additions!

[@r.d.drowned9332]

There's also Hero's Bane, with all this ramp you could quickly make its p/t absurd.

[@tylerpadrick9142]

I made this deck and loved it so upgraded it its about 130 bucks now. Lotus cobra is so powerful in this deck. You play ramp spells to draw and make more mana to play more ramp spells if you upgrade the deck i extremely recommend lotus cobra scapeshift roil elemental and the extra land per turn creatures like wayward swordtooth asuza oracle of muldaya. If you want to be cheeky play abundance. Abundance with any creature like llanowar scout and retreat to coralhelm with tatyova means you play a land draw a card name land. Every land in the deck now on the battle field also abundance is cheap and just good to ensure not grabing to many lands

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad you are enjoying it!

[@tastiekake32289]

Great deck man I bought the deck Chrushed my play group. And it’s a blast to play with the couple of upgrades you suggested.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks! And nice!

[@patricklaflin528]

I just played this deck at my weekly commander tournament. It was so much fun. People couldn't believe it was only 25 bucks. I'll definitely being trying other decks from this channel!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@reymarkable]

another awesome deck tech. Its differ take to a lands matter deck compared to the Lord wingrace deck released not to long ago. This deck seems like a lot of fun to pilot and play.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@csantoro7738]

Been playing Tatyova for around 4 months, and once you upgrade the deck, it is just insane. Winning consistently on turn 5, 6, and 7 is something that destroys normal edh tables. So far, I have only lost 2 or 3 games with this deck, out of the 150 or so I have played. With the addition of counterspells into the deck, it becomes essentially unstoppable. By upgrading the deck with optimal ramp cards, you never really have bad opening hands, and always accelerate too quick for most opponents to handle. I truly think this deck is one of the better decks that is not inherently cEDH, and this decklist really shows why.

[@boatformat9046]

Can you help me build this deck?

[@Kuronosa]

I saw Mana Breach and was instantly happy. I have a casual deck that does pretty much the same thing, but also uses bounce spells to force my opponent to replay their creatures and bounce their lands even more! Azusa would be an awesome include, but it's $30+.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Haha yeah it's a really fun card, but not for your opponents. And yes she would, but she is quite pricey

[@legendofeon]

I have been making some budget edh decks and the closest budget deck I made was a $30 locust god deck. This channel has nothing but awesome budget and really cool synergy’s with the commander! I also love how each of these videos has no sol ring haha Keep up the super cool videos!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Well thank you! Will do!

[@orboflighter6085]

love it but how much does X cost for elixir. I don't feel like solving for it.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

My apologies missed that mistake in production! It costs $0.39

[@maxrandall2441]

you can go infinite with Retreat to coralhelm + Llanowar scout, walking atlas or sakura tribe scout + Tatyova+trade routes Simply, win with jace or lab man

[@kit0134]

I love your budget series and I think it's been pretty big in encouraging me to get back into magic. One common issue I've noticed across some of these videos, especially this one, is the lack of interactivity in the decklists. It's not like every deck has to be filled with counterspells and boardwipes, but a deck without any form of removal whatsoever feels kind of bad to play. A focused commander deck should have at least some forms of removal or answers to opposing threats. I've been playing around with this deck and a few budget options I've personally found that work well with the theme are Slinn Voda the Rising Deep, Scourge of Fleets, and Turntimber Basilisk (why is cyclonic rift so expensive lmao). Also included some simic staples like Acidic Slime, Terastodon, Curse of the Swine, and Reclamation Sage.

[@bagurom]

Wow this is really good. I would weaponize draw a little more. Charms Skulker and that Imaginary creature from battle bond. Maybe mill the table with some enchantment that mill whenever you draw. Since if have most of this cards, I'll give it a try. Thanks!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks and glad you enjoyed it! Let me know which direction you take the deck!

[@andrewrobles8814]

It is interesting seeing how this deck lists increased in price. I wouldn’t mind seeing an episode about these changes

[@veganwiener8047]

right? This decklist is closer to $90 now

[@toa95]

Love the channel and hope you keep growing! Just found it and have been spreading it around to others that play EDH around me.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Well thank you! Can't tell you how much that means to me!

[@Arnau0s0]

This new storm can be really dangerous with commanders which can be casted again and again, like Prosh, Ghalta, etc. Or with commanders with low CMCs. I really like skull storm and fury storm, i think they are a good addition in a vial smasher deck.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Definitely good to consider for those kinds of decks!

[@Bthepig]

Very cool stuff. I just bought the Sram and Jhoira decks that you built. Can't wait to test them out!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

That's awesome! Let me know how they play for you!

[@Bthepig]

The Jhoira one is nuts! Played 1v1 with a friend (not that representative of normal EDH games though). He had me in a bind with 2 life and a Painful Quandary, but the card draw was still so intense that I was able to consistently discard and combo off. A little repetitive in multiple games, but I think that's probably true of most budget or combo decks.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Yeah it is definitely a consistent and resilient deck, and can be to a fault depending on what your playstyle is and your playgroup is. Good thing is you can always tweak the deck to tune down the power level if you need to ;)

[@Bthepig]

Yeah, I dropped a Thran Dynamo and a Scrap Trawler in. Rolled face on one of my friends in a 1v1 and realized that it's probably way too strong.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Yeah it's a pretty powerful deck!

[@oom-3262]

Humm no "patron of the moon"? I'd also say "soratami savant" is extremely good here. And I'd say about having a bit more of landfall: oran rief hydra is terribly underrated as big dumb beater and undergrowth champ is superb. Maybe you should have included them in the "upgrades" section. The deck seems like a ton of fun. As an Omnath player, I'm probably getting it to change a bit the taste of my landfall dudes.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Definitely good reasonable upgrades! Soratami Savant is very good if you are finding the need that you need to counter a lot of things. She wasn't included since her ability costs 3 to activate rather than 2 or even 1 of other "return land to hand" abilities.

[@Jesterofyugi]

That these cards went up that much in two years is pretty amazing. Like the deck now costs 4x the amount here.

[@chrisgallo2236]

Put Sunscorched Desert in there and if that’s the land you use for the combo you can use that to ping your opponents as well.

[@aledrumboy123]

Great video it’s another deck for me! I’d like to see a wizard edh that’s all about winning different ways and tricks and messing with the other players and have a cool way to win

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks and glad you enjoyed it! Definitely would be an interesting tribe to build around!

[@jd11451]

This is a fantastic concept. Subscribed.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad you like it and thank you for the support!

[@triceracop6258]

i built one of these bad bois for my first commander deck after seeing tatyova in the first booster i opened and honestly it works really well, better than i had hoped, all of my friends consider its power level to be 7 out of ten.

[@tails114715]

i would like to see a focused spell singer deck. i think the storm cycle is to expensive excluded the red and blue ones which feel right.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

I agree they go seem to cost too much to cast. And my Jodah deck tech is mostly a spell slinger deck, but I am sure there will be others in the future as well!

[@KeiruKeiru]

I was about to recommend Ghost Town as another combo piece for Retreat to Coralhelm. But then I checked the price and it's clocking in at $4 on MTGGoldfish O__O. Glad I picked up a copy while it was 50 cents.......

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Yeah that is a little pricey for ghost town!

[@brianokafor9748]

Thank you, I have been waiting to play a landfall deck that is budget😉😉😉

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

No problem! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nuestroangelomiguela.979]

Retreat to Coralhelm + Ghost Town + Sakura Tribe Scout = a loop for infinite mana and landfall triggers.

[@boatformat9046]

Can you explain the combo to me?

[@EndlessMystify]

I enjoyed this decktech. Thanks, mate.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad to hear you are enjoying it so far! Actually Adeliz is one of the Patreon chosen commanders that they are voting on, so we will see if it wins out!

[@flossedinparadise1759]

would love to see an infinite tap/untap deck! keep up the good work.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Who knows?!? There might be something like that coming soon. Can't confirm or deny haha

[@intadtraptor]

Great deck as usual. I’m going to use a lot of similar ideas in the Multani I’m building. My one small complaint...the second to last letter in coralhelm is an L 🤭

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Oh nice! And isn't it funny when you get something in your head like that. Now that you point it out...it's so obvious haha my bad

[@Rafesco]

Nice you give a lot of options!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Yep! Definitely a lot of ways that this deck can play!

[@zolda92]

Wanted to make this deck and hence saw this video. But just curious if u dont mind me asking, no counterspell? Doubt opponent will let tatyova stay for long

[@morph4977]

YES. YEEEEEEEES. I WAS WAITING FOR THIS.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad I could help!

[@sunnovah]

Shimmer is currently $1.66 and will allow you to select a land type and give it phasing. Seems like a great budget include for improving this deck, and can also screw up your opponents even more.

[@boatformat9046]

There isn't a card named Shimmer.. atleast I cant find it

[@bluesight_]

I miss when your narration was a little lower and slower like this! And this is a great deck tec, would you consider doing an update with all the new goodstuff printed since this came out?

[@the_average_canadian]

The win con of going infinite with retreat to coralheim seems a little fragile, if my opponents destroy that enchantment I'm left with only two or three other cards that can help me win. Am I missing something? How reliably can this deck get that combo off? I also want to say that I immensely enjoy these videos and I'm going to be building a few of your budget decks. Thanks for making these.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

The combo may be fragile, but it's definitely not needed to win. You can overwhelm your opponents with creature tokens created every time a land comes into play. You can also kill with Psychosis Crawler. Plus cards like Mana Breach and Storm Cauldron really put a hurt on your opponents. And thank you! Glad you are enjoying them!

[@Parodox306]

Just out of curiosity, would you be able to make a video of a commander game that uses only $25 decks? I think a lot of people would like to see some of your brews in action.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Great question! I have actually had a lot of people asking for this, and I am working on making it happen! Not sure of the timeline on this, but it is definitely a goal of mine to do! Would only do it though if I could make it up to my quality standards.

[@freeflow14]

I feel fury storm is going to be a pretty good part of a sunforger package

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Definitely could be!

[@vincevigil8933]

sweet video as always my friend. yet another great uncommon dom gave us.

[@crovax1375]

I going to run a Gyrus, Waker of Corpes deck and build it with Ghoulcaller, Gisa and Ashnolds Alter as combo pieces, so the commander storm cards can get huge!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

That seems like it would be pretty sweet

[@shayneweyker]

Sprout Swarm and Lorescale Coatl would both probably be worth considering for less combo victory conditons. Also Zuran Orb can set up some fun if risky extra mana and card draw plays with your land-returns-from grave cards and provide a life buffer which might be helpful some games.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Both good considerations! Though I am hesitant to play a big beater that doesn't have trample. And yes Zuran Orb can be pretty sweet in a lands deck like this one!

[@davidibaceta7091]

Great deck as always. This has become one of my favourite chanels of budget decks. Keep the good work Some great adds to the deck may be Ramunap excavator, Multani,Yavimaya,s Avatar, Chasm Skulker, Uyo, Silent Prophet, Thoothy, Imaginary Friend. Also I use cards for infinite hand to avoid discards, things like Reliquary tower, Spellbook, Graceful Adept and Venser's Journal helps a lot. Srry for my English (Its not my native language) PS: can you create a budget deck for selvala, explorer returned ?

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks will do! All good cards to consider! Definitely a great commander and one I might try for in the future!

[@Jaquan018]

Honestly, I was surprised you never mentioned Multani. With the number of lands in play, you easily get something akin to 20/20 trample with reach to boot. And immune to anything short of exile since she just needs to bounce lands to get back. Of more expensive Cards Nissa Vital Force should also fit in nicely with her Ult being easy to trigger and adding yet more card advantage and ramp with her +1. Maybe Garuk Primal Hunter as well... He does require three turns but leaves nice 3/3 tokens on the way and capping it out with 1 6/6 Wurm token per land we control. I'd also consider Heroic Intervention since recently I encountered Lord Windgrace Land matters deck with Obliterate so aside from World Shaper it would be a good card to defend our lands.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Great cards to consider for the deck as well!

[@nolansherwood4424]

Hi I was wondering if you could let me know what are the lower value cards you'd recommend taking out if I wanted to make room for some removal/ protection against fliers. I play with a group of friends who run decks that are often heavy with creatures with different sorts of evasion and I'm looking to make this deck a little less susceptible to that. Im loving this channel so far thanks for putting in the work that you do!

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Hi there! My recommendation would be to test the deck out for yourself to see what your preferences are in it! I don't like to give hard and dry cuts on these since people play the deck differently, and you should make it so that it's in a good spot for you! Shouldn't take too long to figure out what cards work well for you, and which ones you wouldn't miss too much if you cut them.

[@juansanchez4301]

Archetype of imagination is a good one

[@baihai]

Hey mitch, any input for Aesi? Since it's similar to Tatyova.

[@joshuaperrin3910]

I was working on a Valduk EDH deck.....I might do this instead.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Valduk is pretty sweet as well! But yeah Tatyova is quite powerful and fun to pilot!

[@joshuaperrin3910]

I'd honestly like to see a video about him. The idea in my head might be too expensive.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

You never know! Might do one down the line

[@dragonriderL]

I watched this video thinking “oh, there’s no way this deck can be very good.” By the end I was on the floor laughing at the thought of crushing my bro with it.

Haha nice!

[@a.j.florsch9147]

Imagine adding more landfall.. Making a crap ton of tokens and gaining a bunch of life

[@davea99]

Since there's a lot of effects that have lands come into play tapped, or multi color lands that come into play tapped, do you think an Amulet of Vigor would be helpful? I actually found one in my older collection.

[@TheMineCraftStuffIs]

If I got the $25 patreon rank would Iimmidetely get a deck made and shipped or do I have to wait a couple months?

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Good question! The deck actually comes with the deck tech, and you get one deck tech per year, which would happen at the end of that year at the General Level Tier. This is just to ensure that someone doesn't just sign up for that tier, immediately get their deck and deck tech, and then drop it after it's sent and the deck tech is made live.

[@johannpohland2826]

Best upgrade for that deck still is lab maniac

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Definitely one to consider if you want to win that way!

[@shogert2370]

Hi there! Amazing channel, so happy I've found it! Btw, I'm gonna make a Battle Box Commander for my playgroup on this New Year as a gift for all of them :D You definately should make an "improved" videos about those decks, not full format, just inform us about some nice additions up to 50$ overall budget From Russia with love)

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

That's awesome! You will have to let me know which decks you pick! Definitely a series I am considering!

[@HarmonicResonanceScale]

sylvan awakening is a wincon all by itself once you have a few lands on the table.

[@matthewtaylor6829]

Hello from 2020! Can you make a quick updated list of cards from new sets I can add to the deck?

[@Y0SIN]

Hey how about using a kefnet, he kinda fits the theme right?

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Yep! He is actually in the decklist, I just somehow missed adding in the slides for him somehow, so apologies for that!

[@Y0SIN]

@@TheCommandersQuarters It's all good :p

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Appreciate your understanding! I clearly need an editor haha

[@demonzero677]

huh......nifty little deck. you just earned a sub.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the support!

[@TH3L3M0N]

If I was looking at making a hydra x-cost creature style deck, would this be a good base?

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

You could definitely cast some huge hydras with all of the mana that this deck can produce!

[@khay0z]

As always awesome video, can’t wait for the next one (Borgling)

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks Borgling! I hope you enjoy the next one just as much!

[@skimix_designs4076]

Any chance you could make this deck tech again because prices have sky rocketed on this deck

[@nicolasdeprez3426]

hello do you thinks Finale of Devastation that one place in the deck? :D

[@metallicwind]

Dude, love this channel

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thank you! And thanks for your support!

[@manguy4238]

I like TCGPlayer sponsoring but the deck builder doesn't allow me to download the list

[@justharry2190]

this is such a dope channel

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Thanks!

[@nazakyuzak1032]

There are only 99 cards in the decklist, what's missing?

[@Shrugtal]

It's missing Budoka Gardener, it's a bug on TCGPlayer because it tries to find it if you use "Buy This Deck".

[@dimanarinull9122]

that moment you use Uyo to overload a Scour From Existence... Retreat to Coralhelm is broken AF in this deck. the combo is Uyo+retreat to Coralhelm+Llanowar Scout(or other)+Scour From Existence this is way easier to assemble then it sounds like... it require Uyo and retreat but those two generally come together once every few games in a timely manner, lastly you just need a targeted removal spell, and the best one for that is Scour because it targets ANY permanent(and yes, your opponent's lands are gone too). there are always some games where people have ways to answer your bullshit but the moment this combo goes off they can't even counter it as even cards like Counterflux just require you to copy the spell a few more times and don't change the outcome. removal still goes on top of the stack and will still only matter if they catch you off guard as you can just wait and scour in response to removal.. don't yet know if players catch up to those types of BS but the people I play with already know the shenanigans I run. this is pretty much a "win more" combo that is purely for gimmick but holy F is it powerful to just overload whatever spell you cast(Part the Waterveil anyone?)

[@RockmeHellsing]

Well Skull strom in meren just kills people becuse its roundet up damage

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Definitely a fun card to consider!

[@PlotwistInc]

Multani is a shoe-in for this deck.

[@-Ambos-]

I didnt get the combo/win con. Could someone explain it to me?

[@Proggish]

What's the Hivemind here think about something like Lab maniac, or Ruin Crab as alternate wincons?

[@theteddy1487]

Lab Man is viable if your deck is highly tuned or you're playing in a really casual pod, Crabs however aren't great as a win con (hard to mill when a deck has 99 cards in it) but against decks that don't rely on their graveyards it's still great to interrupt your opponents plans.

[@Proggish]

@@theteddy1487 so I haven't been using the lab man, but ruin crab has seen some pretty big success. No wincons yet, but enough of a "big scary threat" to cause the table to try and run him off the board.

[@isaacmoonen4264]

Where can I find proof that uncommon and rares have been printed as commons?

[@sawedoffphil8875]

where is that deck list? i went merfok tribal but would love to get it going like this

[@Tyler-ke1ue]

It's in the description, 2nd link down

[@Sagittarial-A-]

This is the type of deck I would totally put a Mana Drain into just to spite one really high cmc card and then not even use the mana produced. #salt

[@luhbuh9608]

When I try to buy this deck it wont let me for some reason please help

[@jaydenhoffbauer8828]

Psychic corrosion

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

A great consideration as well! Only problem is, from what I have found, you need to be able to kill very quickly once this hits the field. Your opponents will immediately team up to try and take you out once you play this in this deck

[@MDuncan624]

What cards can bounce a land back to your hand for free?

[@vc2157]

lab maniac?

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Definitely an option!

[@MehrGills]

what about a more budget option of an equipment to give haste and timestream navigator! u take infinite turns without milling out

[@Sagittarial-A-]

Lab Maniac is now also budget at under a dollar and uncommon because of UMA.

[@mrgrandmastam]

Opinions on Darude Awakening?

[@nerfprate]

Where's signed wayfairer's bauble?

[@panzercraft5556]

This is a pretty nice deck....

[@D3ck3rCain]

Commander Storm is less likely to get out of hand like dragonstorm

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Agreed!
