Loving the new Precon Recon videos! I think it would be fun to a "flashback" kind of episode in 6 months or a year and see how the decks have changed. Maybe an idea for future episodes if there is ever a slow in the precon releases lol
After playing the deck for the past few weeks I’m getting some fantastic results from my deck. The MVP of the deck is definitely Bolas’ Citadel. Cards like Devoted Druid and Accomplished Alchemist are fantastic inclusions to the deck to run away with the game with a large amount of mana. But the best card so far from play experience opposed to Bolas Citadel is Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord. Being about to pay and/or gain 30-40+ life and put those counters on a creature and then sacrifice it to kill the table has been really fun. I’ve also been running cards like Vampire Nighthawk Nighthawk Scavenger & Valentin, Dean of the Vein for huge life gain swings and pay offs.
I’m brewing around Willowdusk with a strategy built around making myself lose as much life as I can per turn and then activate Willowdusk to put a bunch of +1/+1 counters on something with lifelink and just gain the life back.
Gahhhh, precon recon is a fantastic video series. Joey, you should consider continuing this series with other legendary creatures outside of preconstructed decks. While I love Upping the Average, I feel that I like this series a bit better. With that said, I definitely would enjoy to see all three series uploads in tandem. Keep up the great work. EDHRECast has EASILY became my favorite channel for my favorite format!
As soon as I got the witherbloom precon I took gyome and built him because I had like 90% of the cards. He's awesome for a GB artifacts deck. He is definitely THE Master Chef
Great video! The only disagreement I have is the exclusion of Elixir of Immortality. Though it does gain you life, I see it more as a way to protect your graveyard although the lifegain does help a bit. Again, great video Joey.
I'm surprised Life Goes On isn't mentioned. Seems really good to gain 8 life for 1 mana in a deck where the commander can turn that into +8/+8 for something.
I built a Nethroi deck using this precon and some singles I bought since I can sacrifice and gain life, then Nethroi's mutate ability doesn't even need to have white mana to return things from the GY
I'm kinda sad that we just ignored Deena Soul Steeper as a commander. She came in the precon so she is still a viable commander option right out the box.
Specifically for Willowdusk, Iridescent Hornbeetle has been really good for me.

Unspeakable Symbol is killer in Willowdusk. You can add Doom Whisperer for big swings. Valentin/Lisette can also help a lot.
I use Lisette as my Comannder with that precon. Is awesome :)

Card I really like with Willowdusk is Tablet of the Guilds. Cheap artifact that provides a steady source of life gain.
I’m liking this new quick review format. Should be great with the huge number of commander precons announced for this year!
It's funny...I find the comments section of these videos to be as good or better than the video itself. Best comments on youtube by far.
Love this & the strixhaven precons
I'm thinking of Infernal Contract for Willowdusk :D
Okay, that's spicy tech right there :)
adding that!
I didn’t know this card existed but yeah I might have to add this one to the list lol thanks for the tech!

Doom Whisperer is unfair in Willowdusk. Pay 38 life make lifelinker +38/+38... profit.
Yup, I’ve been doing it Underrealm Lich as well, those two are HUGE pay offs in this deck. I’ve won against a pod as early as turn 5
What’s life linker?
@@Darrys a creature with Lifelink.
Add Vault Skirge and Wall of Blood.
Maybe even a dorky thing like Banehound. The kills come outta nowhere.

I am going to be doing Beledros at the head of the deck. He seems like he still slots in well enough.

It protects the graveyard for sure but the deck doesn't really care about it's graveyard

I was hoping people would play 'Witch of the Moors' with Willowdusk
If I'll forgive the pun..? NEVER! I subbed due to content I'm interested in... puns included.
I would love to see Dina deck list
Don't forget get about ikra shidiqi as another whip of erobos type affect
I recommend Grim Feast.
I really like Greed in Willowdusk
Can you do the upgrade of Galazeth Prismari please?
Playing with my feeling by making me wait for Osgir
Exsanguinate is expensive? Come on, it's an uncommon, how expensive... Ten dollars? What even the heck, I need to check my Scars bulk box right now.
Yep. It become a staple while they’ve failed to reprint what would otherwise be super cheap.
Beledros decktech when??
Whip of Erebos is like 4-5$...
Elixir of immortality deserves better than this
Flavour attracts more people. Sorry willow dusk....
“If you’ll forgive the pun”
Really you’re asking that now?
Spike feeder!!!!

She’s a strictly better Varolz imo
