Finally found a sacrifice Commander that I actually want to keep playing
This man’s saying he doesn’t wanna play Chatterfang
I love this commander. I built my first commander deck with her at the head of it. It's a ton of fun.
I opened her in my first box and I fell in love with it. She has become my pet deck .
This was how I built my Ayara. Just ETBs of multiple black creatures. And top it off with a Nim Deathmantle+Ashnods Altar combo along with her one card combo: Plague of Vermin
I love how this deck is almost identical to my Ayli the eternal pilgrim deck. I mean aside from a few exceptions like a couple tutors it actually is the same. In fact I could probably take out something and put this commander into my 99 and use it every once in awhile as a secret Commander to throw people off. I think I have like 6 of them after a set box. I don't know if this guy is very interesting addition to the deck but having the option to have these abilities on a commander is undoubtedly powerful and absolutely rounds out the archetype.
2:18 First up, let's go!
Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate
$0.49
I'm surprised you didn't mention Exquisite Blood. That should be the golden pig in my opinion as it creates an infinite damage loop with more than one of the other cards you mentioned. Enjoy! 😁
Because exquisite blood is more expensive than the entire deck mitch has built. Remember, its a budget deck tech.
@@MaskOfXano Holy hell... just looked it up and you're absolutely correct. I didn't realize it was such a pricey card.
@@vinceofdeath1361 The MTG experience.
@@Numbabu seriously! I gave some of my old cards to the kids at my school and one dad came in and asked why I gave them such costly cards. I remembered them as junk and didn't know they were now good and expensive! Heck I had 30 lotus petal because back then people hated them and they were junk. I liked them so everyone gave them to me. How the heck are they $36?!?
Built this evil menace with lurras as a companion for max devastation and a bit of a challenge in deck building
How's that going? I'm going in an aristocrats direction and it's quite slow for me.
@@silentmayan5427 it's a tough build but surprisingly efficient. I use a sub theme of extort and a little control with blind obedience and such to kind of slow down the pace. Also inkshield and blot out the sky are mvps
@@michaeljaubert1325 inkshield is so freaking good. "Oh I'm gonna take take 10 damage? Sike I'm gonna a gain 10 life and put 20 flying power on my field." Then all those creatures are garunteed damage. They get board wiped and they still do damage.
I haven't gotten blot out the sky yet, but have you tried Plague of Vermin? 6 and a black for a sorcery that reads "starting with you each player may bid any amount of life. Bidding continues until no one bids any life. Each player adds a number of 1/1 rats equal to the amount of life they payed." If you leave yourself with just enough life that you can't be bolted with the first life gain trigger on the stack and you create something like 30 rats and gain all your life back. With that many creatures you've won the game.
@@michaeljaubert1325 another thing is what do you think about creatures with discard effects versus creatures with draw effects? So cards like Virus Beetle versus dusk legion zealot. Cause I'm of the mindset that getting my opponents to discard a card might be better than me drawing a card.
@@silentmayan5427 it's so hard to keep opponents hands down in this format and not putting a bull's-eye on yourself. Drawing cards especially with the low CMC of the deck is really good without making your look more threatening.
some amazing budget cards you might consider:
Shadows of the Past: sac outlets are removal magnets in this deck. Running an enchantment that filters cards for just 2 mana is amazing.
Nightmare Shepherd: double up ETBs on all non-token creatures, as well as LTBs is just game-winning with a sac outlet in play.
Dude you keep reading my mind, I've been trying to build this for like a month
Elas does very fun things with Blade of Selves. Give Elas the Myriad ability and a token doubler and you basically win games on the swing. The new white god creature that tripples token creation and it IS a win the game when you swing.
Can you please do a "Break the Bank" on this for commander?
I would build it around finding and sticking leonin Relic warder with an animate dead effect w/ the commander in play
Easy turn one win. Jeweled lotus. 1 swamp and a mana crypt to phrexian alter and of course gravecrawler
You need a zombie out to play gravecrawler from the graveyard!
Gonna build this commander with shadowborne apostles. Similar to athreos
Thank you I realised I had like 94 of this build laying around so I built her and am having a great time.
Fantastic as always! Would you mind mentioning some additions/swaps if we wanted to go mid-budget or no restrictions with this? Thanks! :)
I wanted to make this deck but I tried to challenge myself so I added Lurrus the den dreamer companion to make it more challenging!
Thanks for this, I’m planning on running a similar build for Alesha, as I opened Elas in my prerelease kit.
I also built Elas with Lurras as a companion. I honestly love it and it's my first companion deck. LURRUS does WORK!! I may want to make a lurrus deck now.
I love this commander. Thank u so much for good budget cards to include 🥰😍
Pitiless plunderer will greatly accelerate your games of you can tutor for it.
Tip for anyone still trying to make a deck with this commander. Storm hers is a 10 drop sorcery that allows you to summon X 1/1 Flying birds where X is your life total. With all the life gain you can easily bring in 60 birds at once, gain at least 60 health, unless you have other creatures out with bringing in a creature gives u health which could give you even more like 120! Thats an insane amount of health for 10 mana. Now since you have 60 1/1s on the field someone’s sure to board wipe right? With your commander as long as you give it indestructible via an angel or equipment etc. etc. When that board wipe hits and all 60 creatures die u easily do 60+ damage to opponents. Easily winning the game and wiping all opponents at once. This wont happen every game, but it’s magic nothing ever does. But when it does happen it’s super fun and everyone’s very impressed. Ive had a lot of fun with this commander and been able to beat sim pretty expensive decks talking like $1000+ decks and I only spent $50.70 to build mine. I have little money to my name and this is a hobby i enjoy a lot and it feels great to still be able to win without breaking the bank. Thats the beauty of this game, always can make something outta ur cards someone hasn’t made and win with whatever you got.
I started building around this commander as soon as I pulled it in the prerelease event. I nearly wiped out several players with a marionette master when another player dropped Descend into Avernus. I should move sunbond into the deck to slip onto marionette master to pump the instant kill methods by sacrificing artifacts.
I’m surprised this deck didn’t run Ratadrabik or Orah, though i personally dont know the price of the two, but using orah to get Elas back and getting a copy of Elas each time you sack her is super useful especially with a free sack outlet
Just watched this yesterday, opened a pack and got this commander today!!
Spawnsire of Ulamog is a high cmc, but is a good add, because it can make a LOT of 0/1’s that can self sac to make mana for more 0/1’s
I’d like to see a build for Arcanis, the Omnipotent
I have a deck with this commander but I also use Lurrus as a companion, I've really enjoyed building around the companion restriction
Lurrus is much better in the 99.
@@daimonds.7306 that's cool and all but I could not care less
@@Standyl14
You seem kinda butthurt, whats the problem?
@@daimonds.7306 no butthurt here boss, I just did not ask for, do not care for, and do not agree with your opinion
Ayara first of Locthwain would go great with this deck
I have a Elas, with lurrus companion, aristocrats deck and it's really slow ATM.
Can't wait to build this with Kaya Intangible im ob format as kor cleric tribal. Currently foiling out Koros Equipment with Nahiri Compleated
It's a budget friendly build but exquisite blood is down to around 20 I think.
To me, blade of selves looks like a must have with this commander. It gives equipped creature myriad. So due to mass etb and death triggers (assuming 2 opponents) And assuming your commander is having tokens made out of it, you will gain 7 life and each opponent will lose 7 life. Off 1 attack trigger.
The tokens must be sacrificed or destoyed for the death triggers to happen. They are exiled with the myriad rule. But if you can kill them before they gets exiled you will get the value 🙂
@@anttown4ever legendary rule will force you to sacrifice them
This is true but you have to attack with your commander which opens it to removal.
@@thrasherftw true, counterpoint, it's got deathtouch
Also it's a really cheap card. So realistically, you could get that combo going on turn 3 or 4 at the latest
I really want a "lose your friends" deck that is stall with no win condition, not by bringing the game to a draw, but just not losing lol (win via highest life total makes people mad lol)
what is wrong with you
@@notnotricharmander LMAO
Oloro All Removal. Oloro keeps ticking up your life total, while every card is removal of some sort to keep your opponents from winning. I actually have a deck like that, but it wins through a number of large creatures with flying (Angel of Despair, Angel of the Dire Hour, Ashen Rider, Steel Hellkite, etc.). If you wanted to replace them with more board wipes, it would do what you're asking for.
Nice! Building this guy right now!
@@zebra8961 I mean, they're Phyrexian now, so human gender/sex roles really aren't important here...
13:25 each oppenent would actually lose 14 life, 40/3 does equal 13.3 but dire fleet ravager says to round up
Paul Blartist, Blood Artist
If you're able to splurge this deck could use my favorite infinite combo: Cliffhaven Vampire + Exquisite blood.
Been Thinking of throwing this in my athreos apostle deck
I pulled two of this guy and asked was he good. I heard stories...Now I'm going to build it.
Is there ever footage of him playing these decks? Id like to see gameplay on them.
Upgrade combo: grave crawler, carnival of souls, sac outlet like ashnod's altar (with another zombie in play).
I recommend upgrading with Thornbite staff in combo with Whisper, Blood Liturgist, go infinite !
I made a deck based on this vid and it won 2 out of 3 games today, with 1 life to spare
Can you have a background in this deck technically because I thought the commander needed to have choose a background
I built my own deck with this commander ❤. A great card to add is storm herd and deploy to the front
Plague of vermin is busted with this commander
Ink shield would work amazing with this commander, its a 10$ card so not budget but really good
She’s a 99 in my Teysa Karlov deck.
I built mine with Lurrus as companion!
Auramancer and kaya ghostform and a sac outlet and infinite loop
Can a more experienced player tell me which of the cards in this deck are more on the weak side? I‘m talking about easily replacable cards
Thanks to everyone in advance!
Dire Fleet Ravager would Drain 14 from 40, "Rounded up" 😉
Also the new wh40k commander deck has a lot of support for this deck.
no thasalise ? thats 1 token for every token you created at end of turn, that more creatures to sac lol
This deck is currently $121
BUT it’s pretty powerful.
Sadistic pilgrim: i don t like to travel over the seven seas .... walk on a ship 🤣🤣🤣
Soul blood artist sister
Sir Conrad the Grim? Or is he too costly nowadays?
I'm missing Cruel Celebrant. Blame Eddie i guess?
cruel celebrant is a big miss. it doubles elas and is cheap. would probably use it over direfleet as doubling drain is a much better finisher than losing a third of life.
Midnight what?
How could you not include Teysa Karlov??
It’s a good upgrade but not in budget of under $1.
Just recommended this guy to a guy with aristocrats deck but he didn't like it
👍
While I love this deck, a lot of these cards were never under $1
if play life gain\take Debt to the Debtless is a must won so many game out of nowhere with this an a sack out for mana
am i the only one who thinks his hat says STD?
first :)
this guy plus Ratadrabik makes for a horrendous commander pair.
swap out one for the other, add Lurrus to recur smaller creatures, and it's MEAN
Sac Elas and make a zombie copy. Play him with lurrus. Have two elas. Sac lurrus make a zombie copy. Sac elas and make another zombie copy. Play elas again with zombie copy lurrus. Have 3 elas. Include a way to recur the original lurrus and you can keep goin.
@@silentmayan5427
Add Ayli eternal pilgrim
Gain more life than ever
Use vampiric rites to.draw cards
Remind everyone why Orzhov is pain
