A note on putting the new Emrakul in, since it is legendary it will kill one of them because of the legend rule. The problem with that is its second-to-last ability you will have to sacrifice all of your creatures when the copy is killed by the legend rule. In general you get less value from using legendary creatures because of the legend rule, unless you want to use the shuffle your graveyard back into library ability found on some of them. But that's honestly fine, because they are so expensive it is nice that this commander doesn't incentivize buying them.

Derivi can be a good bant commander for Merfolk. But you didn't hear it from me.

its funny at 20mins you talk about having lightning greaves in your deck and it goes on Gishath then you talk about using duelist to give it double strike but you cant of course cause Shroud

why is this being recommended to me by youtube, just for me to be unable to see it? that sucks. not saying you shouldn't be making money via perks for donors, just sad that youtube is going "hey look at this cool video you can't see yet!"

Wait there's only 2 cons on your list. "1 for 1" and "Can't take out multiple threats" are the same thing.

There’s only 99 cards in the moxfield

How would you beat this deck ?

Great video man I’m running this exact deck. Thank you so much and please never take this video down :-)

Other counterspells to consider that I didn't see covered in this video: Wash Away - Basically 1 mana to counter any commander, but there are a surprising number of things that cast from a place not from the hand (impulse draw for example, flashback, etc.). Spell Pierce - probably more of a CEDH card where mana curves are tighter. Glen Elendra Archmage - A bit mana intensive but it is 2 negates at baseline, and if you have synergies with +1/+1 counters, or flicker/reanimation, or something to remove the -1/-1 counters, you can do it over and over again. Mystic snake - similar to Glen Elendra archmage; mana intensive, but pair with instant speed flicker or something and it can be pretty cute. Foil - For very low budget. The alt cost is pretty steep (island + another card), but I think it's under $1. Counterflux - Mana intensive, but for decks that can't or don't run a lot of counters, this helps win counter wars.

Making a Tegwyll deck that focuses around Phyrexian Altar to turn Faeries into cards and mana at instant speed, stopping by for ideas, thank you

Good update: Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, Voultborn Tyrant.

Another good creature to add would be the new obeka, Obeka Splitter of Seconds, Because she gives you X more upkeeps for each point of combat damage that she does to an opponent.

Don’t forget that you should target yourself with the Go-Shintai of Lost Wisdom!!! Your Commander has a second ability, that might be good with a huge graveyard ;)

I love Sythis I just have an issue where I roll over my pod with the deck :(

Surveil lands always etb tapped, theres a typo on the first bullet in the C tier. I think theyre better than c tier tho, being fetchable + surveil is huge

Love a good merfolk deck! Made a similar one! How powerful would you give yours on a power scale of 1 too 10?

In commander, Wash Away is busted. One mana to counter target commander.

I think you're way off about Pathways. They're very high B tiers for me. Even if you have to choose a color, they're still untap lands and tap for whatever you need at the time. For them to ever shoot you in the foot, your deck has to have some crazy color requirements

it's not like you didn't said it but i wanna reiterate that bounce land are good! they always draws you a card but with MDFC's and Channel Lands they actually draw you a spell! also, the Signet Lands can make your powerstones tap for actual usable mana, niche, but interesting

always good to take a look at all available Dual Land Cycles

Would love a discussion about standard 😊

Thank you for this! Looking for exactly this video

Great video!! Quick question what’s you’re thoughts on the “first sliver” I’m suprised they didn’t appear here even as a commander alt

please run more lands

Tutor for Apex Altisaur with your Savage Order to get a one sided board wipe

!

Do you thing that Training Grounds would be good

BTW Titan of Littjara has "Discard a card" because it was made specifically for Sliver Gravemother- so the idea was you'd discard a Sliver you want to encore with Gravemother. Fun fact and cool use for it!

I just built my Gishath deck and it’s become my favorite practically overnight. In your list I noticed a few all stars that didn’t show up and a few anti-synergies (perhaps it’s YT comment bait idk). But in the interest of helping decks play smooth let me offer an insight that Marauding Raptor isn’t a may ability, so it’ll kill any 2 or less toughness creatures you play, including the Dino tokens from Bonehoard Dracosaur. And speaking of Bonehoard Dracosaur will put big Dinos into exile instead of your hand for Ghalta’s ability or any other hand dumping effect.

Hi, can you share the list?

Oh my god the false argument about card advantage...according to the people that repeat it drawing a card is like drawing 3 cards in a multiplayer game cause youre up 1 card against each opp😂

Didn’t even mention dormant sliver 😢 I think it’s slept on

So i wana add vorinclex and doubling season to my sythis deck cause i wana get a win with the millennium calendar

How about you put warstorm surge instead of terror of the peaks?

Came here to decide which to keep between Negate and Dovin's Veto and you put them in the same tier hahah

As a cEDH player it's quite interesting to see you react to bog standard plays of the format with question marks. using rituals for your rocks is pretty normal since it gives you a permanent mana advantage especially when your commanders will draw you a bunch of cards. remora is outside of winning one of the best turn one plays. tymna/kraum is the best deck in the format bcs it can adapt so easily to every kind of pod. I have played games were one of the decks is a more casual deck and its usually pretty frustrating for the other players. cEDH lives off of all decks being able to contribute on the stack in some way and one or two players not being able to do that can suck. That being said most midrange or stax cEDH decks lose to big stompy bois, but if you were against a single turbo deck they would just turn 1 win against regular commander decks since there is basically no chance of their win attempt being stopped.

lol saying how Kraum should be better when it’s the best deck in the game 😂😂😂😂😂

Sometimes just playing a deck you enjoy will be the best deck in the end.

The only people who “hate slivers” are just jealous they didn’t get their own sliver queen before the price spiked.

The link to the Moxfield website only has 97 maindeck cards. It seems to be cards that aren't in the video, so I don't know which cards you planned to be in there.

It's also very weak to flying, especially if you can't overwhelm the rest of the players early. Even if you can, you're still likely going to get chipped away by those flyers

Yes.

loved the video, my only question is this: In a pod experience, is it annoying to have to keep flipping and unflipping your cards?

As a new mtg player this video was extremely helpful in getting to know the type of werewolf cards that are out there and how they would be beneficial! Thanks 😊

No Ferocidon, Hulking Raptor or Trumpeting Carnosaur? Also is it OK with 1 PantLaza and 3 Gishath?

I would honestly just forget the non-daybound werewolves except the mayor. I know Tovolar helps bridge them with the new wolves but he's not gonna be there often and they're going to be much harder to get going.

I think you forgot about Avrabruk Caretaker as best werewolves. A hex proof buffer on the front side, ALL permanents get hex proof, and all yiur creatures get 2 +1/+1 counters at start of combat on the backside.

I would suggest to replace Battlemage's bracers with Obsidian Battle-Axe since it will equip for free as Krenko is a warrior

I recommend adding Mana Echoes

Awesome video, making a werewolf deck and saw this so it definitely helped thank you
