I know this is going to sound like a weird comment... but thank you really for these deck techs, you helped me budget out some decks that would have ended up really expensive and made them into reliable budget versions. Your goreclaw video is still one of my favorites, I built it with some expensive cards i had sitting around and ended up not spending too much money. Thank you really :)

I built this deck a few weeks ago, and it is super fun! Every since I began to optimize and increase the power level of my decks, it's hard to build something more casual that still feels synergistic and fun. But this list is a masterpiece. It feels like my first awesome experiences with magic (I started playing in new phyrexia). This deck has awesome tech and feels interesting while being able to play against other casual decks without steamrolling. I am becoming a patron because of this deck.

Thoughts on Grafted Exoskeleton? It's an equipment that gives +2/+2 and infect, but if it becomes unequipped from a creature, you have to sac that creature. you have quite a few creatures without wither or infect, including your commander, so being able to give them it is useful, plus you can use it as a sudo sac outlet by equipping it to something, then moving the equipment to sac the creature, giving you some utility draw power with your many effects that let you distribute counters to anything. Also while it's not amazing, Veridian Longbow is fun with infect, it gives equipped creature "T: deal one damage to any target" which can add up over a long game coming from infect creatures.

Fun interaction if your running Nest of scarabs and Blowfly infestation. Get two scarabs on the board. Activate scorpion God or whatever to get a -1 counter on one of your scarabs. When you do it will die and both enchantment abilities will go on stack. Create the scarab first them place the counter from Blowfly on the other (as the target was defined on the stack). Now it will die and the effects will loop. now loop until you draw whatever card you want then put the counter on another creature to end the loop.

My friends and I really got into Magic around Morningtide. One of my first “good” decks was a Wither deck with Shadowmoor’s release. The upgrades you have here was my combo in that deck as it grew. It also ran 4 Demigod of Revenge for finisher also. I think that whole set is under utilized a lot and my friends now (with a new group) are always shocked by some of those cards. Another set I love that seems to be less used than I’d expect is Time Spiral. Those blocks are a large part of my collection and I love building EDH decks with them. I’m set to build treefolk, Giants, or goblins next.

I love this deck. I run a similar one of the 60 card variety, so I have a few suggestions for other reasonable upgrades to the deck. Grim Poppet is a 7 cost 4/4 artifact creature that comes into play with 3 -1/-1 counters with the ability to throw those counters (at no cost) at any other creature. Torture is an enchant creature which costs 1 black. For the cost of 1 black 1 colorless, you can place a -1/-1 counter on enchanted creature.

Add Mikaeus the Unhallowed so that everything in the deck will be able to come back after it dies, and since you can just add -1/-1 all the time you can do this basically forever. Also consider adding Necroskitter makes you gain EVERYONE ELSES creatures back after they die if they had a -1/-1. Seriously considering changing my Mikaeus combo commander deck into a Scorpion God one, the extra colour seems to be more fun, and the extra card draw the God provides is much needed

Important to note that death by -1/-1 counters gets around indestructible. I found that putting Artifact removal is required for those who think Akroma's Memorial is fun. Red has a pretty easy time smashing artifacts. On that note, Rakdos colors have a serious problem with enchantments. I found the best way to deal with them is to use black to search and exile them before they're even drawn/played from someone's library/hand. Starstorm and blasphemous act are pretty good red boardwipes to have, since it's predictable to have mostly black boardwipes. This is the type of deck that can recover very easily from board wipes with all that free card draw, so destroying everything will usually end up in your favor. you will hardly ever pay for Commander tax, and there are a couple of desert land cards you can use to Exile people's graveyards. I found that Stigma Lasher was was a very valuable 2/2 red creature for two red Mana. not only does it have wither, but if it deals combat damage to a player they can't gain life for the rest of the game, even after Stigma Lasher is destroyed. Useful for players who want to bank on a cheap Felidar Sovereign victory or lifelink/extort. Hateflayer is another high value red card. Another issue I ran into with this deck was that it is usually skewed towards 75% black and 25% red cards in the deck. finding high-value red cards is key and having all of the Dual lands is a must. you never want to be in a scenario where you don't have that one red Mana to play your commander. just be very careful about how you balance your Mana base. Oblivion Strike (requires black but is devoid) and Brittle Effigy are good answers to people who like to drop the turn 5 Iona.

I think the infect keeps things consistent and under budget. Warstorm Surge is essentially a fun bond between the Wither and Infect. To be fair, Infect can just be blockers or have the direct damge to creatures when promoted. But having the ability to police more powerful decks is nice too. It simply can be: I have infect but if we play even-keel I will not use it.

You actually can! Since they only reference a land name they are fine. Cards that reference a color outside of the deck cannot. (for example you couldn't use Izzet Guildgate in this deck), but you can use any of the panoramas.

I use lord windgrace as my jund wither commander cause it's plus 2 can spread 1/1 counters on all opponents creatures in conjunction with archfiend of ifnir also a fabulous reaction is midnight banshee or any other wither counter card that puts counters on all creatures and melira cause melira prevents your creatures from having -1/1- counters and my favorite is melira , cauldron of souls and seedborn muse meaning counterless persists

Great content, would you be interested in doing a Naga Tribal with Sidisi at the helm? Yeah, I'm sure it would eventually end up as a Zombie tribal, but it's a thought I've had for some time now and I haven't seen anything like it.

If you were forced to sac a scorpion god, would it return to your hand? Sac is moving a creature from the field to the graveyard which sounds like it dies, but I'm just making sure that I have the ruling in my head right.
