    I have a really fun Goreclaw deck, it's built more as a mid-range strategy which you never really see in a Goreclaw deck. Its average mana curve is barely over 4 and people get really surprised when they expect me to play something huge and I just end up playing a lot of 4 and 6 mana creatures in one turn than the one or two 6+ mana creatures, it's quite aggro with all the drawing going on in the deck too, I put ALL the draw cards in! lol

      Everything about this sounds exactly like my new Goreclaw deck lmao I built it 4 months ago.
      2023 Goreclaw is a real powerhouse and it has some real explosive turns
      drop like 2 or 3 4-6 drops in one turn etc.
      Concordant crossroads is a real strength of this deck to that and it being combat based.
      I also play apex devastator for about 7 reasons but some are due to all the cost reductions in the deck and easy casting for cascade plus the fact that there are no spells with higher cmc in the deck. The chance of cascading into a concordant crossroads on that explosive turn as well is a great potential.
      It's stuffed with draw like yours and a good take away is that Nissa, shaker of worlds (although not synergistic) is one of the best enablers to go off and I would never take it out in a million days.

    Big fan of the Dennick deck. I feel like everyone is always looking for fast, splashy commanders which is likely why he wasn’t that popular, but this guy is a solid value engine. And the Thran Turbine inclusion is really nice to draw a bunch of cards. He’s definitely underrated.

  • @jessewyatt5783
    @jessewyatt5783 Год назад +2

    I have a Gerrard deck as well, but it slips more into a sacrifice theme where you sac your creatures for mana and then kill Gerrard off to get them back. You'll usually have enough mana afterward to recast Gerrard and set the wheel going again. A lot of creatures that add mana when they die or enter of course, and sad robot is one of the best draws in the mid-game. Overall, this way allows for a lot more shenanigans as you aren't so reliant on having a lot of boardwipes.

    Omg that bennie bracks deck! I made a Mondrak deck that does it similarly with seance and dollhouse of horrors, god pharao gift etc. Went nuts and won a game when I imprinted a coveted jewel with prototype portal so I would draw six cards each turn for 0.
    Probably my favorit deck at the moment.

    Hey Demo, really love your videos, never miss one...
    At the moment I'm doing a deck based on your Patron of the Kitsune, but doing some changes since I don't have all the cards and some are expensive, so I have to go slow...
    I'm thinking about adding Sun Droplet for triggers on each turn, Sunblade Samurai for fetching land and gain life and Moon Blessed Cleric to get certain enchantments.
    You think it's interesting ideas and what should I replace with.
    Thank you and looking forward to hear from you!

    my girlfriend also has a Rayne deck!! she went through the same journey of struggling to make relevant threats to be targeted/close the game. it’s settled as an Old Border combo list that usually pops off on turn 5-6, and uses Rayne to keep the hand juiced when interacted with. :)

    I had the same mindset I hated playing against blue so I made a Llawan, Cephalid Empress deck and made it janky by changing the color words on cards like Sleight of Mind and Glamerdye and playing a lot of Swords and creatures who have a protection of a color. Together with the best spells like Sea Kings' Blessing and Sway of Illusion.

  • @Syncopiia

    I made a Baron von Count deck and it's one of the weirdest builds. You end up looking for a lot of strange cards to fit the 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, nuke someone to death mechanic. I think you'd have a lot of fun brewing that.

  • @ManjMau

    @classymofo1059 Год назад +1

    I don't know if you have this combo in your Iname deck or not, but there are a ton of super powerful spirits in golgari colors.
    My Iname is built around playing Iname, Deaths aspect, who entombs every spirit you want, straight out of the deck. This is absurdly powerful because one of the spirits, which you did mention, is gravewaker. And since you can get him in play with your commander, then sac your commander to play and 1 of the spirits you just binned (like gravewaker) is great.
    But another spirit you didn't mention is seedborn muse. Seedborn + gravewaker when you have every good spirit in the game in your graveyard instantly wins games. It's too much advantage.
    You have crypt ghast to double your mana with urborg and start draining the table. He who hungers can often discard your opponents whole hands, but more importantly, serves as a searchable sac-outlet for kokusho. Kodama in the deck is crazy. Revenant comes out as at least a 30/30 in most games. Primordial sage is good card draw.

      @@CorZ1lla I think a lot of players incorrectly assume that a 3 color deck can’t be built on a budget. Between signets, talismans, ramp spells, and various types of lands that have been made accessible, it’s actually not taxing on the wallet.
      I primarily blame content creators for this viewpoint that 3 color decks need shocks and fetches to have a functioning 3 color deck. I had an Inalla deck that used a very budget mana base and when I finally bought the full set of shocks and on color fetches, I saw minimal improvement with how my deck played out.
      If you spend more than 2 min balancing your mana base with the rest of your deck (division of colors, number of cards with pips, mana curve, etc.), I think you’ll find 3 color decks aren’t as expensive as they’re made out to be.

    the first deck I made for commander was a Nethroi Apex of Death deck that I just sat down didn't look anything up and created because self mill is my favorite play style and I liked heavy creature decks that had payoffs for having tones of creatures in the graveyard such as fiend artisan nilea thousand eye and spider spawning the deck goes tall and goes wide easily all you need are mana creatures and mill creatures to get it going I play the deck mostly as a Bulgarian deck but recently I have added a few more white cards into it mainly relish norn to double my etb effects. but nethroi is my favorite commander because you can be very versatile in what you put it the main downside is you miss out on blue self mill cards and creatures.

    @ry7hym Год назад

    on the topic of Shanna: it's a really cool idea but you could maybe make it more interesting again if you added direct damage as an alternative to combat damage with tokens with Freyalise Supplicant
    on Tishana: I have a Kaseto deck that plays both Coiling Oracle and Mystic snake. and I really need to get that Summoner's Pact in my deck, that's super sweet!
    I also have some other Flash snakes in there. I've thought about Ice-Fang Coatl but I there aren't enough snow snakes to make it work well (and I have Kamigawa basics so I don't want to swap those out)
    Dennick's ability makes me think of Kadena a bit. I love playing that deck too.
    I also want a mono colour deck in each colour, but am struggling too for finding a mono blue and white commander. I did settle on black and red (King Macar and Neheb the Eternal) but my mono green deck I'm thinking of taking apart (Mowu) because its a bit boring. it's voltron and a bit tweaked net deck. I think net-decking definitely plays into a count in how much you like to play certain decks. cuz if you build them yourself you can play more of your pet cards and nostalgia cards

Also have to get more lands in the grave: elvish reclaimer,Sylvan Safekeeper, Sylvan Scrying Than Crop Rotation and scapeshift double as tutors. Than you got thing that let you play more lands every turn basic ramp it is a big ramp deck it is crazy fun cause you rep so fast you boys get huge I have game where titania Gaea Incarnate is a 100+/100+ with vigilante reach trample haste and should/hexproof because all my guys are lands and you have like Awaken the woods to get a bunch of 1/1 dryad land boys and Ashaya, Soul of the Wild to turn all the other stuff into lands.

    Light from Within might be a good fit in your Dennick deck if a lot of your creatures are white. Just an anthem, but two white pips on a creature instantly makes it waaaay stronger than it originally was. People see anthems and think "Meh, it's only a +1/+1," but this one is surprisingly stronger than that. At worst, it's a good bait card to draw out some removal or a counterspell that could likely be put to better use.
