Deep down I wish we had gotten a blue white tau deck

[@Spartan-P]

I got really big into Tau lore and that would've been awesome.

[@ben10sofie]

Specifically with Magus Lucea Kane: Magus of the Candelabra is SO FUNNY

[@emperornapoleon6204]

Unbound Flourishing and Doubling Season are the first edits I decided I would make (I already had Atraxa, so I had them ready to go). I really like your suggestions! I will definitely getting some of these or fishing them out of bulk to tinker with them and find the best build!

[@duarteabreu3636]

Hey, i know its been a long time but just wanted to bring up that the first part of doubling season doesn't work for copies, so you might aswell go for branching evolution instead!

[@NyxTheScary]

Animar would be amazing in this

[@JeremyNoell]

That's a great suggestion!

[@H1V3M1ND1]

I made Animar into the commander and leaned into x spells, if I’m not feeling it I’ll make magus the commander and add some ramp!

[@danfrost2859]

I mean you COULD say that but he's already in my 99? Teehee

[@NyxTheScary]

@@danfrost2859 its like Animar Hydras but the creatures do more!

[@danfrost2859]

@@NyxTheScary just wish they made the swarmlord sultai colors. Hydra tribal with zaxara would be bonkers with tyranids

[@brandenhansen3022]

Branching Evolution and Kalonian hydra, also master biomancer.

[@awboqm]

I dont play warhammer, but I am so tempted to pick up this deck to make a Magus Lucia Kane X spells matter deck. Elementalist's Palette would work very well, not just with Magus Lucia Kane, but also the base tyranid swarm deck.

[@erubin100]

Honestly, even the "weak" green draw like hunter's insight or elemental bond would be insanely good in this deck.

[@christianp.5067]

Thanks!

[@christopherpoxon9508]

Iridescent horn beetle would be funny in this deck. "How many insects are you making?!" 🤣😱🤯

[@scottricks1676]

Have that in my version! It plays as nasty as it reads!

[@Nightken91]

I'm definitely throwing in one of my Verinclex to those counters and an Allosaurus Shepherd since there's a lot of green cards in the deck

[@Fazzee45]

Im heavily considering putting lithoform engine in my deck. I already have doubling season and if its in play and I activate my commanders ability and cast a creature like the zoanthrope with x being 5 or more and the copy the ability with lithoform. Id have the creature and 4 copies come into play and draw 5 cards. All zoanthropes etb and do 10 damage or more to any target. Just a thought.

[@jaysanchez3432]

I found a nasty combo with all will be one and the red terror. Its essentially an infinite burn combo that needs either adding a counter or doing any type of noncombat damage to start.

[@zsosborne]

All will be one says 'one or more counters' so wouldn't it only activate once instead of infinitely?

[@michaelcondria4510]

Overwhelming stampede would be a big finisher later game from all the counters you've placed

[@connorl0204]

I cant believe there was no mention of mono green selvala here. She draws you and gets increasingly good the longer she stays in play.

[@ArmageddonAsh]

Unbound Flourishing - So glad i managed to get a "The List" version. Totally had no use...Until now. Lol

[@HydraDominus]

I'm so hesitant to change anything out in this deck because it's worked so well for me and I've swept the last 4 of 5 matches I've played with it. I like it even more than my necron and imperium decks by far. I went up against my own upgraded necron deck that I let my friend use and decimated him with malanthorpe after he milled the entire deck

[@Blaze21iz]

I did this to a Mill deck too. The absolute rage on their face 😂

[@nyxboi427]

Temur Ascendancy is a fun card for GBR decks. An enchantment that gives creatures haste and draws you a card every time a creature with 4 power enter battlefield under your control

[@lion7979]

*Temur Ascendancy. And you are right. This is perfect

[@nyxboi427]

@@lion7979 Lol silly autocorrect

[@lion7979]

@@nyxboi427 i knew it😆

[@leeroyj7300]

im actually really surprised they didnt bring up defiler of vigor, that card is kinda nuts in this deck, esp with a green focus

[@lksdoe2559]

I finally have something worth the vorinclex I pulled

[@NateBullock-ow6on]

The great henge would be a nice addition

[@AbsurdAsparagus]

i have a mono green hydra deck, i will be fusing the two

[@showmeyourmouth]

rythm of the wild is also wild like the name suggests

[@Umpapamowmow]

Rhythm of the Wild, Reflections of Littjara, Hadana's Climb, Invigorating Surge

[@jarodhines6544]

Coat of arms? No? Maybe? Feel like it would be AWESOME in this deck.

[@kiritokaguya9180]

Defiler of vigor I would recommend

[@dennyhindman2166]

iridescent hornbeetle to go wide as you make other creatures tall?

[@drekarus8113]

What about vorinclex monstrous raider? Or doubling season? Yes animar would also be great in here

[@Wicked_Carnifex]

Doubling season 100usd

[@drekarus8113]

@@Wicked_Carnifex I’ve had one since double masters. Since I already own one I’ll just proxy the others? All the high priced cards now I been had. People should realize the value of certain cards and jump on it before it gets to $100

[@josephboltz2860]

Temur ascendency for haste and even more card draw!

[@SxTheBo]

just swap the commander with Luceas Kane and the deck is much more powerful

[@riccardofusari4952]

in this deck iwhould put hozolith and ispiring call that do protection and card draw

[@kanadaj]

Vorinclex just because

[@jamesnail2066]

I added mirage mirror to mine

[@mattony06]

What would you take out

[@hitbycars]

@5:54 imprisoned in the moon

[@csof5275]

Myriad or double strike on atalan jackal is nuts

[@aaronconlin]

I think my biggest upgrades to the deck are Vorinclex, Unbound Flourishing, Branching Evolution, Neoform, The Great Henge, Mana Bloom, and Reflections of Littjara

[@herrawiggles7919]

See i plan on running magus instead and shoving Unbound Florishing into it with a g wave, kara vore preator boi, and x cast spells and running simic with red splash for shenanigans. Only modding the things that can definitely be removed for better synergy. Have friends who are sotting there like why are you doing this and already dont wanna play against me lol

[@robertshannon5442]

Herald of secret streams seems pretty good. Why go over when you can go through

[@Wicked_Carnifex]

Im dropping the tribal aspect and going heavy into ramp/ all X spells

[@amithemuffinman]

Temur Ascendancy, like Garruk's Uprising but haste.

[@garylangford6755]

why do you keep taking the cards off the screen so we cant read them..

[@caseykimmons6383]

Lucea as commander swarm lord is crap lose several of the creatures and switch them out with some better x creatures needs exile I recommend curse of the swine just because it's funny there was something else I added but I can't remember at the moment. Good luck

[@jakebrodowski9]

Kindred Discovery was C17 so technically it came out in 2016.
