Hey folks! Let me know in the comments below what you thought of the build, if there are any cards you think I missed that would be a good fit for it, and what other commanders you would like to see me cover from this set for from the Fallout Set.
Amazing build, as usual! I especially commend you for stressing so well the differences between Yarus and the Naya precon. This one feels faster, more resilient and more aggressive. If I had to pick one, it would definitely be this one. About the shorter format for the precon upgrades, I think it's for the best: faster for us, less mentally exhausting for you and still at high quality PS: The Great Henge storyline never disappoints!
Glad you liked it! I really wanted to make it clear that both Kaust and Yarus had about 90% of the same cards / playstyle at their disposal, but their plastyles were different enough to make them feel unique - so I'm happy that point came across. Also - thanks for the feedback and for enjoying my endless hatred for that stupid tree!
Glad to see Yarus getting some attention, and nice list! The deck also has nice synergy with generic big Gruul creatures that benefit from haste (Etali primal storm, savage ventmaw, giant adephage) since there's haste built into the command zone and there are a handful of ways to cheat them into play through scroll of fate / hide in plain sight etc.
Love the build ! Definitely inspired me to build Yarus myself. Quick question though - wouldnt the infinites with Yedora not work since she returns them as lands so you wouldnt be able to sac them using goblin bombardment or ashnods altar?
Gotta say, just found your channel after slowly getting back into MTG since I was in High School (this time with EDH instead of Standard). I watched your Caesar precon upgrade video which was dope. Is it possible to make a video for a Sorin Markov commander deck? Any of his cards that use the Orzhov scheme? He's one of my favorite Planeswalkers and unfortunately I just can't find any guides or starting points. I was thinking Grim Nemesis, but I don't know. It's a slow process for me relearning how to deck build.
Fun fact: if Yarus is on the field with a bunch of Morphed/Disguised creatures when activating Showstopping Surprise (or Blasphemous Act), it will wipe out the board, Yarus while dying will see all the face-down creatures dying too and revive them So basically you can shotgun a Blashemous/Showstopping (almost the same if you flip something massive with) AND retain your board (now bigger, stronger and with triggers) at the cost of just Yarus... it's insane
TBH I almost bought Deadly Disguise in the shop but the overall value of the cards is way too low. I do have Yarus (opened in a pack), and now I'm super hyped to build the deck around him !!!
does Guardian Project even work in this deck? A face down creature has the same name as all other facedown creatures iirc, and when they reenter its as a face down creature
True - though I still like it alongside our sac outlets as a way to get ride of otherwise resilient or dangerous creatures that still fits with our face down centric playstyle - since our options are a lot more limited in just red / green.
I actually really dont like Showstopping Surprise. If it said "your opponents control" it would be good. As is, its a terrible Blasphemous Act. Its not bad if you have Yarus and a bunch of facedowns as they'll see Yarus was on the board and all come back faceup, but thats happy Christmas land, plus I have to recast Yarus for 6 at that point. It's a terrible card, dont play it.
Those are fair assessments - but I will counter with that the fact that this being an instant makes it better than it may intially appear. Being able to respond to an opponents committing to the board by wiping it and being able to start rebuilding before them is fantastic. Admittedly though, it does require us to keep 5 mana open for a full rotation, which is not ideal - so I can see the argument for cutting it.
@GrazzetMTG Ya, I've tested Kaust for dozens of games now and most games it either was dead in NY hand or set me back further. Really poorly designed card.
I think Yarus is more powerful than Kaust, but only have 2 colors and losing some really great removal and cloak cards really hurts him for me. Such a sweet commander if you get the set up, but sadly he just eats removal since the deck heavily revolves around him.
I agree with this - that is why I made a decent effort in getting in ways to protect Yarus from removal so we can keep using is effect for a long as possible. Hopefully we'll be getting more face down centric cards in the future, as they will only help to make Yarus better as time progresses.
She does seem like a fun historic style commander with an emphasis on artifacts / legendary lands rather than legendary creatures - maybe with some self mill and non-hand casting payoffs thrown in for good measure. Not sure if I'll have the time to tackle her before Outlaws of Thunder Junction is upon us though...
This convinced me of the untapped synergy you can have with face down cards in commander. I wouldn’t have given this archetype a second glance until now. I also agree that there is not true upgrade for the deck unless you already have a great henge. No need to buy one for the deck. But if that is your thing that is your thing. Thank you for the video.
Glad to hear that this build helped convince you to give Yarus and morphs a fair shot, as, all jokes aside, the deck is pretty solid and may just be better than the Deadly Disguise Precon its competing with. Also, yeah - if you were lucky enough to crack The Great Henge, by all means slot it in. It honestly should go in every single deck that has green in it that has a decent amount of creatures it it (which is why I hate it), but dropping $55 on it may be overkill.
@@GrazzetMTGso I pulled the trigger and built this deck. I changed out 2 of the creatures for some other morph/disguise that I had on had. I have been playing this for the last 2 weeks at my LGS commander night. It has been super fun. Also it definitely can keep up with the other builds at the table. Thank you again for the idea. This is my new go to deck.
Personally I still like it in Kaust, but I do agree that it works well here for some extra repeatable removal - especially as we get cards in play that pad our creatures core stats so they can remove even bigger creatures.
I’ve been a big fan of all your deck techs and deck upgrades ever since I found your channel, and this seems like another one I want to build irl and test out. Also waiting to see what you did with Mr House, my friend built it as well and I’m interested to see other builds on him as well. Massacre girl is another interesting one I’m waiting for. Also love the jokes you have for power cards that go way over budget, like the always looming Great Henge. I know Wizards isn’t really giving time for deck builders like you, but I still appriciate all the precon upgrades and the deck techs themselves regardless.
Found this video as I searched for more ideas on one of my favorite decks. Found this to actually be kinda similar to what I already built too. I made yarus when he came out, and Ive always loved morph ever since I started playing in onslaught, so I had to make him. Just want to share how I made him too. I made it with a more colorless subtheme. I use mana rocks instead of land ramp because they're colorless and also they're an easy manifest that yarus can flip for more ramp. Blasting station is a great sac outlet that will untap with each yarus trigger and can pick off small creatures. Soul of the harvest over the elf as it draws on etb instead of cast to draw more cards on yarus triggers as well as fecundity for draws on sac. Moonsilver key can fetch ashnod's altar, phyrexian altar, the great henge or forsaken monument which I also like running since the morphs are colorless and nets you two life on morph casts as well as doubles all my mana which I went pretty hard on with the colorless mana production as I found myself not caring about if I can even produce a single color when everything I cast is colorless anyways. Mystic forge also is great as you can cast morphs off the top of your library and another reason to run mana rocks instead of land ramp spells. I also try having a lot of creature cost reduction as once morph become free, the deck popps off with all the passive card draw from ETBs and yarus triggers from sac outlets.
Thanks for sharing your deck man, I've been running Yarus myself but relying on land ramp instead. I like your version a lot better with the focus on colourless mana, I may make some changes for this!
@@SSBalla29 thanks. Modern horizons 3 also brinks kozilek the distorted reality that works wonders with yarus. Glaring fleshraker is great ramp/token generator as well and does a ton of damage to the table and lazotep quary is a great sac on a land. High market and miren, the moaning well were also lands I forgot to mention that are great too. I like his colorless theme he can pull off a lot.
You can look up the deck named those sacin' morphs on moxfield for it. One thing I'm considering trying to add is death touch after watching this. Especially the one that gives untapped creatures hexproof.
Man, the thumbnail pun is just peak... especially when you realize the joke that ISN'T related to badly-written vampires or Rank10YGO. Also, the upgrade section? Chef's Kiss. Just be careful how much metal is in your system... ;) As for the polls- yup, Massacre Girl killed it. Talk about an obvious suspect. Day 323 of waiting for the face reveal... who are your editors, BTW? Cause I wanna give 'em some well deserved thanks as well.
Happy to hear you enjoyed it and thanks for the comment as usual! Honestly, I was surprised that Massacre Girl got the nod here - I was sure that Voja would take it by a mile but it looks like, in this case at least, people decided to go with the fan favorite over power. As far as my edittor, I'll let them know that you asked about them and they can reveal themselves here if they so choose, but - for the record - I edited The Great Henge bit in this one since I wanted to get it just right, so I'll just take the credit for that thanks!
I love the upgrades you add to every deck, awesome idea that I dont see in other budget build videos. You should add the way over budget, at gun point to every video, pretty funny
Honestly, if you want to build the deck as is, it may actually be cheaper to buy the cards from the precon individually since the prices for them tanked upon its release. That said, the precon does come with a copy of Jeska's Will, which is a fantastic card and would slot right into the Yarus build as solid ramp/draw upgrade - so if you want it, then the precon would be the better choice there. Hope that helps!
Frank Horrigan would an interesting Golgari proliferate / possible Voltron style commander to build around - so I wouldn't mind tackling him at some point!
Sadly its not likely. He was on the latest poll but lost to Massacre Girl, Known Killer - and with Outlaws of Thunder Junction right around the corned, I doubt I'll be able to get to him outside of an extra episode (which admittedly CAN happen, but I'm stretched pretty thin already)....
Real comment: I always was never impressed by Kaust (the face commander of the Morph decks), as it seemed like he was way too monotoneous in his design and his timing was awkward to get the payoff of a single card (Example: attacking with a flip land and getting a card is impossible due to how Kaust is worded and generally never worth it.) I might honestly just make this guy at this point since you have the avenue of sac outlets and a way to cheat out the morph cost at any point in time. That, and Haste is severely underrated. I know its not a budget card but Cloudstone Curio (16 USD at this point of time) could be a potential sidegrade as it can allow you to reuse morph abilities. Given enough cost reducers you can also get it to the point where you can infinite cast with two morphs, add your commander and a sac outlet and its infinite [whatever morph trigger you have]. 6 card+ combo yes but at that point, you deserve the win if you get it off unimpeded.
Hey folks! Let me know in the comments below what you thought of the build, if there are any cards you think I missed that would be a good fit for it, and what other commanders you would like to see me cover from this set for from the Fallout Set.
That TGH moment was epic. Thank you again for all the hard work !
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the episodes where you build your own decks much more than the improvements to prebuilt decks :)
Hard agree!
These decks seem quite powerful even with such a low budget.
I'm not a huge fan of morph in any of it's forms(cloak, disguise, manifest..) but this deck made me change my mind! Great work as always!
The Great Henge skit had me dying. I have one real Henge and one from the HP set.
I have been waiting for your Yarus Deck! Thank you!!!
You are welcome and sorry for the delay!
Yarus was the most interesting looking card from this set in my opinion, glad I found your channel while looking for deck ideas.
So could i buy the precon and slot stuff in? Also, your videos are getting better!
Amazing build, as usual! I especially commend you for stressing so well the differences between Yarus and the Naya precon. This one feels faster, more resilient and more aggressive. If I had to pick one, it would definitely be this one.
About the shorter format for the precon upgrades, I think it's for the best: faster for us, less mentally exhausting for you and still at high quality
PS: The Great Henge storyline never disappoints!
Glad you liked it! I really wanted to make it clear that both Kaust and Yarus had about 90% of the same cards / playstyle at their disposal, but their plastyles were different enough to make them feel unique - so I'm happy that point came across.

3.nice avg. cmc. 10/10 deck, I am 100% putting this together in paper. "You spelled 'their' wong" blink twice if you're okay, Grazzet.
Gotta say, just found your channel after slowly getting back into MTG since I was in High School (this time with EDH instead of Standard). I watched your Caesar precon upgrade video which was dope.

How does Ashnod's go infinite with Yedora? She makes them lands and not creatures.
That great henge moment had me laughing. My not so budget friends act the same way knowing I'm on a budget
does Guardian Project even work in this deck? A face down creature has the same name as all other facedown creatures iirc, and when they reenter its as a face down creature
Weird request but is it possible to make playlists for your videos based on what color combinations the decks are?
Do werewolves or transformers flip effects interact with this guy at all?
One of my friends has built a yarus deck. It's actually scary
Big issue with Jeering Instigator is its only on your turn, which is awkward.
True - though I still like it alongside our sac outlets as a way to get ride of otherwise resilient or dangerous creatures that still fits with our face down centric playstyle - since our options are a lot more limited in just red / green.
I want some morph tokens with the old bug like design.
I actually really dont like Showstopping Surprise. If it said "your opponents control" it would be good. As is, its a terrible Blasphemous Act.

@@GrazzetMTG I hope so too. Morph is so fun.
love your videos marvo is soo fun to play but please make a yuriko decklist
I'd really appreciate a video on Lara Croft :) I got the secret lair and I just can't seem to make a reasonably priced deck that works with her.
She does seem like a fun historic style commander with an emphasis on artifacts / legendary lands rather than legendary creatures - maybe with some self mill and non-hand casting payoffs thrown in for good measure. Not sure if I'll have the time to tackle her before Outlaws of Thunder Junction is upon us though...

Temur War Shaman is worth playing here, not in Kaust.

@GrazzetMTG I think it's just too expensive in Kaust and with white the extra fight removal isn't really needed.

Yep, he's the next build - so stay tuned.
@@GrazzetMTG HELL YES.
Looking forward to the massacre girl video!
Glad to hear it! Just wrapping up Mr. House as we speak, so I'll be tackling her build soon.
Will you do a Three Dog build from the fallout set?
