Commanding on a Budget 15 -- Zirilan of the Claw

[@Azurekate]

So glad to see you making videos again. I love your tag-team style and different viewpoints it really adds a lot to your videos!

[@HavocTheWendigo]

It's so nice to have you guys back you guys always had great content

[@jayzhang7981]

Welcome back, miss you guys!!!

[@EvokeWarVomit]

Looks a cool deck to play! I could suggest to cut 1 mountain for Crucible of Fire.

[@Tedurbin202]

I've taken my Sliver Overlord EDH apart multiple times. The deck performs pretty much the same every game. Step one: Get out Sliver Overlord. Step 2: Tutor up whatever Sliver will win me the game. Step 3: ???? Step 4: Profit. I do still build it from time to time, but my friends all HATE playing against it. Also, very awesome video. It's so nice seeing Brionne on the building on a budget videos again. So, so, so happy to see you guys making videos again. Thank you.

[@Ferreira0PH]

Great to see Commanding on a Budget back!

[@TheCommanderLounge]

DARGONS!!!! nice dech tech :)...the only edh deck that faded for me was krenko when I made him too rude (Land Hate, lots of tutoring and really fast combos)... but I actually did the same and rebuilt him so now hes just glass cannon aggro with a kiki lightning crafter combo back up.

[@tmcdon]

I really enjoy your little series! Throw some out there on how to modify/improve some of the precon Commander products that WOTC has out as the last two sets are all running about $30/deck now.

[@Eryomis]

Nice deck and commentary, glad to see you back ! :) I've made a decklist for Hazezon Tamar for under 50$ (well, if we don't include the commander...), if you're interested.

[@Jadisero]

Great video, like always! Keep up the great work! I'd love to see a Skullbriar or Heliod Commanding on a Budget version if you guys and gals ever consider requests! As always, great job; and let the luck of the draw be with you!

[@Slattstudio]

don't forget sundial of the infinite will let you keep your dragons too. disaster radius is also good with dragons

[@VoodooGremlin]

Would Sundial of the Infinite break the bank? I used to run this deck and you wait for the Zirilan trigger and then end the turn. You can search it up with hoarding dragon and use a sac outlet to get it to your hand.

[@ruki25]

I had a melek deck that would get extra turns for days, and so I revamped it into a storm deck that plays one really long turn instead of many turns

[@SomChefen]

I had the same problem with my Zirilan deck. It just was the same thing over and over again.

[@DJMigrane]

I always have a Zombie tribal deck and it always end up taking it apart. it just seems to not quite get there.

[@FixYoSelf]

I took apart mimeoplasm because I would always do 18/13 putrefaxes and 20/24 inkwell leviathans and people hated it.

[@vgftw3809]

i had this G/W standard deck and it was one of the best decks i had ever built at the time went 2-3 at gameday which was to me satisfying then i started devoting a lot of my decks to commander then i went 0-3 at a standard event and thats when i decided that this deck had had its run

[@rek8193]

Welcome Back!

[@Kriegersage]

I took apart my Sapling of Colfenor Treefolk deck because it was just way too consistent.

[@samhparker]

love the new intro!!!

[@ytkob]

I built a pretty neat Brago deck that flickers things for value, but my turns ended up taking forever because I had a trillion triggers every turn and people hated playing against it. Didn't help that it had no real way of closing out the game quickly, so the games always stalled forever and it was pretty repetitive. Will probably take it apart and build a Karametra list soon.

[@pineapple5486]

It's been 3 weeks. Where's the next video? Y'all back or not?

[@TopAndGoProductions]

+John Hamil kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipyYZpKbYrd_o7M

[@lukewaelder5040]

i had a anax and cymede deck i took apart cuzz i would win turn 5 or start losing turn 6 hahah just ran out of gas but gut shot for an anax tiger was so fun

[@deathrayy08]

i had to take apart my zur the enchanter deck because my play group keep hating me out first i ask them why they said it wasn't fun to play against

[@Svydnar]

I took apart my Rakdos infinite combat deck because every game I found myself tutoring for the same infinite combat combos and it got a bit boring.

[@KS-ui4hi]

Why no sundial of the infinite?

[@Chicken_Monk]

I took apart a Jazal Goldmane deck because it was far to consistent and won way earlier than any token edh deck ever should. But i would still recommend hi to players becuase he is very fun and simple, I just overdid the deck

[@ellahazan-fuchs7249]

I took apart my mill deck (not commander). this is mainly because no one played against me as i was considered too strong.

[@jowo__]

How do you guys choose which commanders you're going to make a budget version for?

[@TopAndGoProductions]

(Brionne) Honestly whatever commander strikes my fancy.

[@jowo__]

+TopAndGoProductions okie dokie, awesome channel btw

[@andym4751]

Ooohhh.... Burnished Hart? That's breaking the bank. I'll have to stick to my ashling the pilgrim edh with 99 mountain

[@HavocTheWendigo]

Ok I've quite new to magic but I hear of that deck all the time is that a real thing lol

[@divineshadow-gathererofmag7710]

+William Henry Yes it is, William.

[@strikingfreedom]

TT^TT my fucking tears of joy that they have started up again :(

[@He.who.understands.little]

love this channel keep it up

[@alienplatypus7712]

This deck looks fun... Seems similar to Rakdos 2 but more repetitive and less toolboxy.

[@MercStrider]

Fuck yeah! If I still played mtg I'd be putting Zirilan together!

[@LunaFayeForever]

Do budget Sydri, Galvanic Genius next please!!!!!

[@chandlerhostetler1310]

Cant make vieods often cause they spending time on those intros damn they look awesome.

[@magmarex1]

I took apart mikeaus the unhallowed everytime just resolve triskilion with it and win :(

[@braindead684]

I evolved my Drana bloodcheif into Vish Kal, i'd call it a upgrade.

[@admanios]

I would recommend Fissure in place of Aftershock. It's slightly more expensive and it doesn't hit artifacts, but it's instant speed removal and stops regeneration. Also, in place of Mad Prophet, I'd go with Deal Broker. It's one mana cheaper and one toughness tougher.

[@aidanniles1788]

Nice Video

[@Gimpocalypse]

I had an Uril EDH that just stopped being fun. Spam enchantments, swing for a bazillian damage, rinse, repeat =/

[@nicktapio2822]

I took apart my Roon deck because it became reall really slow as my play groups decks became more powerful.

[@clarkberman3139]

Krenko just comboed off every single game...

[@MrDannyTS]

I build a Raidmother deck and it was fun, but way to easy to kill everyone on turn 4 with infinite restock and revive loops.

[@StickgeneralArmy]

I took apart my gitrog horror deck because it always infinite comboed and won turn 6

[@brodalf4969]

I took apart my prossh infinite machine/ everyone hated it. ... now i haye a riku deck with one infinite Kombo...

[@Chicken_Monk]

+Sebastian Kuntschke Riku for the win (remember the doubling season and parallel lives)

[@VladdViever]

I once had a Karametra deck that was too samey

[@rogarhurtubise5014]

gutted my Lin Sivvi deck because it got too tiring of playing rebels since 2000

[@jacobstormann4452]

I had a Jar Bargain deck that I took apart because apparently no one likes turn 1 to 2 kills.

[@Mensch777]

+Jacob Stormann what did you expect? lol

[@jacobstormann4452]

For it to be utterly broken and that no one would want to play against it!

[@joshrobinson8430]

even though my deck isnt budget, I love my mono green ezuri trbal deck.

[@kairiver7884]

Oh god, dont get me started with Ezuri. It's my first build and 100% amazing. LET ME SUFFOCATE YOU WITH MY ELVES MWUAHAHA Infinite Elves are the best.

[@Elnshaw]

I retired a Nekusar EDH because it wasn't fun to play, between instantly being a target and the strategy being to sit back

[@jarotputra486]

thunderbreak regent

[@halimlorette2742]

WHY NO SUNDIAL OF THE INFINITE????!!!!! It lets you keep your dragons because you end the turn before the next end step. "All the games went the same..." This is why I don't generally approve of search generals. Any commander that lets you look through your deck for a specific card and it will only be a matter of time before you find the best thing to get in most scenarios, and then all games will devolve into "can you beat this dumb thing I can search up every game?" instead of the variance and thinking on the fly that makes EDH games fun. This is as true for Godo Bandit Warlord and Zirilan of the Claw as it is for Zur the Enchanter and Arcum Dagsson.

[@Tedurbin202]

+halim lorette That's why I'm not fond of Voltron generals. Any game with/against them basically boils down to that, not to mention you paint a huge target on your head in multiplayer.

[@corteaz2793]

I took apart my oloro deck. Everyone always complained and targeted me when I played it. It wasn't even that powerful.

[@VictorAdameArt]

I took Arcum, and Feldon apart, they did the same thing every game.

[@Thatotherguy979]

Avacyn angle of hope I took apart because no liked when I played it

[@papanurgle8393]

Memnarch was fun while he lasted.

[@chicagomademan7989]

i retired prossh. very powerful very consistent played it for two years and am just tired of it i could almost play it in my sleep.

[@anonyblah2788]

Been far too long since the last budget deck tech!!!

[@Mensch777]

I took apart my Narset deck. It was way to powerful and way to boring, even without huge money cards.

[@alienplatypus7712]

I found Narset the same, though I couldn't be bothered to take it apart lol

[@attackchoper97]

Let's not forget steel helkite destroys token decks.

[@Emperor_Atlantis]

i used to have a sweet sydri deck, but it was only stalling untill it could combo like crazy. even more boring then playing talrand after a while

[@dannco255]

narset really started to get linear

[@红晔-s5l]

Thank you for changing the intro music. The previous version is very annoying. I have to skip it every time.

[@Crimson9578]

kahlia. it was an ok build but she is just too big of a target.

[@Billchu13]

tutor generals are lame.
