    This has got to be one of the most unique decks ever made

    "Its one of those commanders that I think people aren't exactly sure where to go with him"
    *flashback to my "oo I want to make a chromium deck!" Followed by overwhelming possibilities and anxiety over how to build it*
    So excited for this video!!

    So a lot of the bombshell creatures that this deck would use are out of my budget, but some very cool and interesting cards I havent heard of that I'll have to check out! Wont be how I build my chromium deck, but lots of fun cards I can use in other decks. Thanks for another wonderful video! Looking forward to that 10 ideas challenge edition!
    Lastly I think Psychatog would be excellent in this deck! Someone mentioned spells like entomb blocking the creature in grave, from volrath's shapeshifter. Psychatog not only fixes that problem but also is a discard outlet if you havent gotten chromium out yet, or if it got removed and you cant pay its tax.

    I live for these videos. This is what commander is all about.

    Very nice. I would immediately look at any madness cards too, maybe for a back up plan or, perhaps there's just some good madness cards

    I try really hard not to double up on color combos in my decks unless they're 5 color, but I'm gonna have to make room next to Ertai for this beauty

    FYI your getting a new top teir patron in the near future, I got a deck I wanna build but it is way beyond my capabilities. Look forward to seeing how u brew it!

    I recently purchased the Draconic Rage Precon deck to use Klauth, as my Commander. Would love to see what kind of deck you could put together for Klauth!

    THANK YOU for featuring Hakkon! Kamiz loves to get Hakkon Stormgald Scourge into the graveyard and to cast it in order to play knight creatures or spells like Nameless Inversion and Crib Swap over and over after conniving them away!

    If your dirty, you could instant speed discard Phage the Untouchable during unblocked combat. Maybe use a Tetsuko Umezawa while power/toughness is low. No etb's trigger when it's already on the field.

    @dreddbolt Před 3 lety +1

    Dude! Thanks so much for this!
    Esper is usually really dull in my opinion, and I definitely didn't see this coming. The commander has stapled-on toolbox enabling and protection, both of which is right up my alley. I'm definitely in the mood for some graveyard shenanigans of my own with this iteration of Chromium. I think I might just switch out Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign.

  • @thechefhans739
    @thechefhans739 Před 3 lety +1

    It always makes my head spin when a commander deck doesn't really-kinda-sorta use the commander's ability as intended. Great job Demo; my head's still spinning.

  • @rend7979
    @rend7979 Před 3 lety

    I genuinely lol’d at the nameless inversion Hakkon line. Incredible stuff

  • @_skux_life5023
    @_skux_life5023 Před 3 lety +1

    Nice, this is sorta like my Ravos and Sakashima I've been working on! Thanks Demo!

    Holy duck, this is insanely creative and unique!

  • @90spepe
    @90spepe Před 3 lety

    I built my Sidisi deck around your Haakon idea! It's a little janky but I love it!

  • @GrompEconomics
    @GrompEconomics Před 3 lety +1

    Man, now to use this to try and make my Kumano "secret commander" deck. I love Kumano so much, but want to make him work... mono red wasn't doing it for me, and building a "secret commander" deck is complicated. Thanks for the further inspiration!

  • @aevenova9780
    @aevenova9780 Před rokem

    I have a Karona, False God EDH. filled with the weirdest, wackadoodle cards. 😂 its really fun and totally bonkers.
    My actual serious deck, is Treva the Renewer 💚🩶💙

  • @randallni6826

    omg I have become a fan of this channel since I really like underwhelming and janky commanders, see you at patron I guess lol

  • @philippgosens8692
    @philippgosens8692 Před 3 lety

    What a great idea to combine these creatures in such an interesting Deck. Really enjoyed the video

  • @pughug545
    @pughug545 Před 2 lety

    The new capenna legendaries could probably be good commander replacements for this deck

  • @CosmicGiggalo
    @CosmicGiggalo Před 3 lety

    I already really love graveyard manipulation (Golgari for LIFE) so Im intrigued by the components this deck is running on. Im also a bit more of a budget player so a lot of the big beaters this deck has I wouldn't *personally* run, but at the core of putting big things into graveyard and having little things on curve become those big things is great.
    Fantastic even! Definitely an idea I want explore further.

  • @Bafflementation
    @Bafflementation Před 3 lety

    An alternative package you could fit into the deck is Lazav, the Multifarious alongside Medomai. Lazav fits nicely with the graveyard exploits and - unlike Dimir Doppelganger - doesn't exile your creatures, while Medomai offers an infinite combo with Lazav.

  • @jameseddleman6944
    @jameseddleman6944 Před 3 lety +2

    Can you do a deck tech on Omnath, Locus of Creation deck? BUT I want you to use Song of Creation, and I want the lands to be the damage win con, like turn lands into creatures.

  • @andreazoccatelli8912
    @andreazoccatelli8912 Před 3 lety

    Perfect, now I’m gonna take all these cards, and put them in my new Sefris deck 😂

  • @flipflopdad2860
    @flipflopdad2860 Před rokem

    Since Volroth shapeshifter doesn’t have changeling, he does not count as all creature types even though he is a shapeshifter correct? If that’s the case, are you looking to recur volroth shapeshifter if it is killed; as I imagine it will be a high value target for opponents. Initially I thought since volroth was a shapeshifter you could cast him from the graveyard with haakon but that does not seem to be the case.

  • @prob094
    @prob094 Před 2 lety

    Did this one make it into your personal collection Demo? I hope so! Such a cool deck.

  • @ronaldrogan7546
    @ronaldrogan7546 Před 3 lety +1

    So cool. I have a Chromium Foretell deck that I love, but this is so unique. Have you played it? Is it viable enough to win? I see lots of interaction but idk about closing out games.

  • @chrisgebben2043
    @chrisgebben2043 Před 3 lety

    wow you made a very playable deck with Chromium 2.0 easily graveyard manipulation is cool idea

  • @satpiegaming6756
    @satpiegaming6756 Před 3 lety

    The new Ludevic from innistrad is a perfect fit 👌🏻

  • @ShannonMcCormick71
    @ShannonMcCormick71 Před 3 lety

    This is great!

  • @Jimmythehead
    @Jimmythehead Před 3 lety

    You’ve inspired me to do this same idea but with the new Sefris

  • @ROYBGP
    @ROYBGP Před 2 lety

    This deck is sick

  • @LibertyFixxxer
    @LibertyFixxxer Před 3 lety

    can you help make a janky fun Iname, Death Aspect deck, using Hakkon Stromgald and Maskwood Nexus? If someone was going to make it fun and interesting, it would be you!

  • @SpellstoneStructures
    @SpellstoneStructures Před 3 lety

    Lord of Tresserhorn would have made a great commander as well I think. But I really see why you went with white.

  • @Rexxsoul7
    @Rexxsoul7 Před 3 lety +2

    Question
    For both entomb and pull from eternity, the spell will end up on top of your graveyard cause it resolves and is discard after the card is put into the graveyard right? So the shapeshifter would not get to see the creature?

    • @edhdeckbuilding
      @edhdeckbuilding  Před 3 lety

      uh, yes you are correct.

    • @Rexxsoul7
      @Rexxsoul7 Před 3 lety +1

      Sorry to kill the combo, I really liked the idea though…

    • @whirlwindsky
      @whirlwindsky Před 3 lety +1

      Psychatog will solve that issue, is only $0.60, and also is a discard outlet.

  • @Ryluth
    @Ryluth Před 3 lety

    I have a Zur deck that uses Rebel cards, but I mean Esper Zur Knights!!!! Lets make it happen xD

  • @BMazeing
    @BMazeing Před 3 lety

    Holy crap you've got a new sub. Question tho - would you add Maskwood Nexus

    • @edhdeckbuilding
      @edhdeckbuilding  Před 3 lety

      you definitely could. to be honest i haven't really committed that card to memory yet so i forget about it alot when building decks.

  • @Malibooyahhh
    @Malibooyahhh Před 3 lety

    Holy cow this is cool.

  • @todddearing7805
    @todddearing7805 Před 3 lety

    Any ideas for an Akiri+Armix artifact deck with a discard subtheme?

    @Let_It_R1P Před 3 lety

    This is sweet!

  • @Wistbacka
    @Wistbacka Před 3 lety

    How do you cast Haakon from command zone to begin with if you cant cast it from anywhere else but the graveyard?

    • @edhdeckbuilding
      @edhdeckbuilding  Před 3 lety +1

      you can't. that's why he's in the 99. the commander is chromium here.

  • @gdice0156
    @gdice0156 Před 3 lety

    would varina be a good alternate commander?

  • @ShiningCrimzon
    @ShiningCrimzon Před 3 lety

    Funny how yesterday one beat us with an approach the second sun and demonic tutor combo, Chromium never hit the board lmao

  • @illyfish1951
    @illyfish1951 Před rokem

    you have the rules wrong on ashes of the fallen

    • @illyfish1951
      @illyfish1951 Před rokem

      haakon needs the creature to be a knight while on the stack and ashes only works on cards in the yard

    • @ceecexiv
      @ceecexiv Před 11 měsíci

      So is Ashes not needed? Replace with Maskwood?

    • @illyfish1951
      @illyfish1951 Před 11 měsíci

      haakon re-checks to see if something is a knight when it leaves the gy and is on the stack. since it's not in the gy anymore ashes wont apply to it and the card fizzles if it doesn't have knight on it's own.
      yes it still works with maskwood@@ceecexiv

    I love this channel but this intro music is repulsive

    • @Draconicdisciple
      @Draconicdisciple Před 3 lety

      I really like it, the rune is something I look forward to with them.
