    It costs me around $25 to print high quality proxies at my local print center (and then sleeve them over lands).
    Sure the sleeve costs aren't included in these lists, but it's impossible to beat that value for a deck of real cards

    I'm really enjoying this deck. What are your thoughts on Monstrous Onslaught? I know it's costly manawise, but it could be kind of a boardwipe for your opponents. You can deal 1 damage to Gargos itself, so it will even fight another creature! As always, thanks for the great content, Tomer

    OH i would also like to put out there cause it never is done enough, but Frontier Siege for ramp. 3(G) choose khans and each mainphase you get GG, that has often let me leave open a lot of physical mana for target spells for 4 mana essentially every turn you get 4 mana. the thing is nooot used enough in mono green.

    Would you ever consider uploading videos of your playtesting or deckbuilding? Besides always looking for more commander content, I struggle to trim my own lists. How bad does a card need to perform before it gets cut, how much better does a more expensive card need to be to upgrade, does a deck more lands than average, and other questions you might ask yourself while tightening up your decklists.

    • @ms.sysbit5511
      @ms.sysbit5511 5 лет назад

      Honestly if a card is routinely being drawn and you wish it was something else, it’s probs right to cut it. Land count is based on curve (and fast mana access). A lot of these are pretty simple things you grasp with experience so keep at it.

    • @tomerabramovici32
      @tomerabramovici32 5 лет назад +1

      Playtest footage is something I'd like to do. Deckbuilding wouldn't be helpful for me to show since it's just a byproduct of thorough research. I spend hours researching all card options for the deck, 90% through Scryfall and 10% through google searches / EDHREC / MagicalHacker / reddit / etc. After hours of research / writing, deckbuilding with the cards I already looked up takes like 10min. Then I try to get 2-3 playtest games on MTGO which is another 3-6 hours. Then tweaks and voila.

    When you cast Hunter's prowess (or any other of the target cards) on Gargos, doesn't Gargos' trigger go first? And only after Gargos fighted will Hunter's prowess resolve?

    • @tomerabramovici32
      @tomerabramovici32 5 лет назад

      Correct. Gargos’s triggered ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.

    Hey Tomer, I know it's a light guide to be used when building a deck, but your guide accounts for roughly 75 cards of an EDH deck. What should I do with the other slots? I'm building a creature heavy simic proliferate deck, so my guess would be that I fill slots with good proliferate targets and synergies?
    If anybody could give advice, that'd be great:)

      @@anokosecret9963 Oh sorry I misunderstood! Yes, it's all flexible space to support your theme. So in your case it would be stuff like proliferate and other efficient ways to give counters to your creatures, like Hardened Scales and whatnot. The "Putting it Together" is more of a checklist: do I have a minimum of X? If not, then it might be a problem. But the rest of the slots are up to you!

      The deck will always be vulnerable to removal, but I tried my best to make sure Gargos and our other threats are protected. Autumn's Veil and Veil of Summer help with countermagic, along with Yeva to flash creatures in when the blue player is tapped. I've also added many ways to give our creatures hexproof and indestructible. If you keep a bit of mana up when casting threats you should be good!
