Hey, great video on the topic. I feel like that there is not enough content on the internet about nekusar, despite a lot of people saying, that there is. Nekusar is more or less my first own build, I started in 2017 with the Yidris precon from 2016 (which in my opinion is one of the best years of the series so far). I really enjoyed the wheel theme of it and especially Waste Not, but I found Yidris to be way too competitive with his cascade/storm/solitaire mechanics, so I took the Nek shell around it. In my 4 years of playing the deck, I went through 3 stages, but I would consider them different. The more fun version of the deck imo is the Howling Mine Group Slug one, where everyone else gets to draw, sometimes before you even get to draw, because your opponents blow up your mines. The strong version is without the Mines and more wheels. The mean (cedh) version is more of a combo deck, with wheel dmg more of a backup-plan. You (can) also play Phyresis (infect) vs. lifegain decks and a lot of boardwipes, counters and tutors, as well as A LOT of ramp (fast ramp if you have it). Combos you can play here include: Dramatic reversal - Isocron Scepter Niv Mizzet, the Firemind - Curiosity Niv Mizzet, the Firemind - Mind Over Matter Mind Over Matter - Temple Bell TL;DR: Fun = Howling Mine effects Strong = No Mines, all Wheels Mean = cEDH (Infinites etc.)
Umm... Just here wondering why nobody is mentioning Elder Mastery. Nekusar does the damage when players are drawing cards, and Elder mastery says: "Enchant creature. Enchanted creature gets +3/+3 and has flying. Whenever enchanted creature deals damage to a player, that player discards two cards." NOTE: it doesn't specify that it needs to be combat damage, so every time Nekusar is on the table with Elder mastery and opponent draws a card they have to discard 2 cards. Also Curiosity is just straight valua cause it doesn't specify combat damage.
Thanks for the ideas - found a couple things that I don't have in my current mean build. I run a Breathstealer's Crypt to really tax creature-heavy decks.
Archmage Ascension is fun With Nekusar. Keep this Enchantment on the board for 6 turns (Nekusar will make sure you get those quest counters every turn), and if you do, all of your many card draws become tutors that aren't even type restricted.
Another mean way to play the deck is having either of the good Niv-Mizzets or Psychosis Crawler out so everyone else takes damage when you draw as well. And then if you throw Curiosity on Niv, it goes infinite, and you can also go infinite with Temple Bell and Mind Over Matter. Just throw in Ulamog to discard and dump your grave back into your deck and you can make everyone else draw out their entire decks
You should make a deck list. It would be helpful. I like your videos. I know that would mean more work for you but it would help the viewer maybe grow your channel some more.
If you slip in sanguine blood whenever anyone loses life you gain that life, giving you more room to not worry about life lost, Throw in a "peer into the abyss" you can murder or maul a player. Reverberate you can multiply some spells for fun.
Psychic corrosion and memory erosion are good cards for that strat. If you have the money, Bruvac is really good. Sphinx's Tutelage is busted. I suggest you go on EDHREC and find the mill theme. You'll find many recommended cards for that theme. Good luck!
You can throw Oona in for her mill ability,it'll get you faerie tokens as blockers.Ashiok can exile graveyards if you're dealing with graveyard recursion decks.
Or hello everyone I just picked up a commander deck from 2013 called mind sees And I'm using nakusar mind razor Appreciate the help cause I have no idea what I'm doing Search online for cards to remove and cards to upgrade I'm looking for more suggestions or more sites.. So far I've played 5 games with my deck and I've lost 4. Is there AhWebsite that categorizes each card to its ability?
"Peer into the abyss" is in most cases an automatic KO with nekusar on the feild as they lose half their life and draw that many cards. Get some tutors and it's pretty vicious.
@@Asterothe91 pillow fort might be a bit challenging revenge of ravens is pretty good, definitely throw in a aetherize, forced fruition might help, everwatching- threshold, dissipation Feild But group slug is super easy

Hey, great video on the topic.
I feel like that there is not enough content on the internet about nekusar, despite a lot of people saying, that there is.
Nekusar is more or less my first own build, I started in 2017 with the Yidris precon from 2016 (which in my opinion is one of the best years of the series so far).

Niv Mizzet, the Firemind - Curiosity
Niv Mizzet, the Firemind - Mind Over Matter
Mind Over Matter - Temple Bell
TL;DR:
Fun = Howling Mine effects
Strong = No Mines, all Wheels
Mean = cEDH (Infinites etc.)
ive had a nekusar deck for awhile and this vid has def showed me some cards i didnt know existed!!
Umm... Just here wondering why nobody is mentioning Elder Mastery. Nekusar does the damage when players are drawing cards, and Elder mastery says: "Enchant creature. Enchanted creature gets +3/+3 and has flying. Whenever enchanted creature deals damage to a player, that player discards two cards."

Coming on here for commander master’s reprint putting this into my budget range, appreciate the option layed out here
The other opportunities to punish them are opposition, ankh of mishra, sire of insanity, and spellshock. It keeps there head on the grixis platter
Uh Nekusar was my first commander. Played with wheels myself. I miss it already. Probably gonna reassemble the deck soon.
So if you’re not against proxies, you can essentially twisterloop/wheel for infinite mana then dip into a mana sink for a win
@@daltondee5666 lmao you diabolical
@@daltondee5666 archidekt.com/decks/229513#Nekusar This is my take on Nekusar. However, I own almost every card legal in EDH in the first place.
If you're Havengoul problems I feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems but a Lich aint one

NO. I'm Joel. Got a etched foil of this zomboss. Thanks for the build tips
I’m here for the mean way on this one 😈
The thought of playing Lich Tribal scares the hell out of me
Strong and mean seem like they go together
Fist pumppp!! 👊
Thanks for the video Joel
Nekusar is bae

ob nixilis,the hate-twisted,patron of nezumi and mind crank
I love enchantment decks this is a dirty deck in the strong 💪 way.
If you slip in sanguine blood whenever anyone loses life you gain that life, giving you more room to not worry about life lost,
Throw in a "peer into the abyss" you can murder or maul a player.
Reverberate you can multiply some spells for fun.
I been thinking about making this deck.
Ayula, Queen Amongst Bears
+ Changelings
How did you not include Peer Into the Abyss...
Nicol Bolas, The Ravager! My first commander ever, but looking to maybe switch up the strat/the 99 for some variance
Yo, i was trying to go in more of a mill direction, any advice on how to do this?
Psychic corrosion and memory erosion are good cards for that strat. If you have the money, Bruvac is really good. Sphinx's Tutelage is busted. I suggest you go on EDHREC and find the mill theme. You'll find many recommended cards for that theme. Good luck!
You can throw Oona in for her mill ability,it'll get you faerie tokens as blockers.Ashiok can exile graveyards if you're dealing with graveyard recursion decks.
Wheels is the way
Nekusar storm is what I aim to build
Or hello everyone I just picked up a commander deck from 2013 called mind sees
And I'm using nakusar mind razor
Appreciate the help cause I have no idea what I'm doing
Search online for cards to remove and cards to upgrade
I'm looking for more suggestions or more sites..
So far I've played 5 games with my deck and I've lost 4.
Is there AhWebsite that categorizes each card to its ability?
"Peer into the abyss" is in most cases an automatic KO with nekusar on the feild as they lose half their life and draw that many cards. Get some tutors and it's pretty vicious.
I like helm of host to copy Nekusar and jin- gitaxias to force more discarding
Question does infect work if he deals his passive damage?
it does!
From the lists that I've seen, normally either Phyresis or Tainted Strike is included for Poison Counters while wheeling.
I definitely click on these videos cuz of your funny intros
What sources would be good to get retrieval of artifacts or enchantments from graveyard?
Academy ruins and hall of heliods generosity for enchantments but heliods generosity is white
3 ways for Yidris, Maelstrom wielder.
Really need vito to give all them creatures lifelink and gain life while they are drawing and loosing
I would want you to build a Muldrotha the gravetide decks.
Ghalta is my "pet" commander, I'd love to see your take on him
I made 3 nekusar decks
Wheels
Group slug
Stax
im trying to figure out a pillowfort group slug list for Nekusar.
@@Asterothe91 pillow fort might be a bit challenging revenge of ravens is pretty good, definitely throw in a aetherize, forced fruition might help, everwatching- threshold, dissipation Feild
But group slug is super easy
Hey bud, I think your intro's are hilarious
Phyresis is pretty mean with Nekusar
where are the decklists?
They give recommendations on how to build and which paths you can take but let you have the fun of building the list.
Zur the Enchanter
Ertai esper version please
Don’t a lot of these cards hurt you too?
No Uba Mask I am disappointed
13:00 just add a $200 card lol
Teysa Karlov please
Meren
Lmao…. “These intros aren’t funny” and MEAN 😭
two words...Waste Not
But hear me out....... nekusar infect
The strongest Nekusar builds will have the ability to storm out
