I have a friend that wants to get back into playing magic specifically commander who has never played before and I am building him this deck right now. Great video, can’t wait to get a bunch of cards to finish off the deck and have a good time with my buddy.
It's easy to get caught up in comparing cards based on efficiency and failing to see the bigger picture. You have a assembled a very promising budget deck that looks fun to pilot. How appropriate that it scavenges like Hyenas, picking the scraps that others leave behind. I love caged sun and even gauntlet of power in some cases. And Rise from the Grave might not be as efficient as other reanimators but I like this include. It may have been power crept out of a lot of decks, but it targets any graveyard, which doubles as a crime and makes it a black zombie for bonus payoffs. Is 5 a bad deal for reanimation? Not exactly, it's still great when you're getting something you killed on an opponents turn that is 6 mana or more. You committed a crime on their turn and committed a crime on your turn bringing it back. You got a sweet deal there and you're producing a ton of mana with that Sun or Gauntlet in a mono colored deck. Great build brother!
Can confirm, dark dabbling = gonorrhea, brother. Gisa's likeness went from Sweet Dee to Maureen Ponderosa. That can't be just happenstance! There must be IASIP fans at Wizards.
I plan to grab up all the gisa in art cards i dont already own, and remake my Ghoulcaller Gisa with them in it. Not sure if ghoulgisa or hellgisa will be my commander now
It’s just unfortunate we don’t have an Abzan warlock commander. We have all these warlocks, but no real way to make them into a cohesive strategy. We need like an Edgar Markov for them.
Seems like abzan warlocks are mostly focused around sac/reanimate plus life gain/drain/life as a resource with a small subtheme of using food as a resource. While not warlocks themselves Sam and Frodo would probably work fairly well for this.
I saw this video just before the new set came out, cancelled my other preorders and built a deck BASED OFF THIS VIDEO, i will be editing it a bit as time goes on but still..
Im not sure about her as a commander, but shes a house and legitimate wincon in my Marchesa crimes deck; I can trigger her 4 times a turn for no mana which means shes a 5 mana creature that brings along up to eight 3/3 bodies the turn she comes down.
gisa is better in the 99 but even still not that great........I think the pair would have been awesome if they did a partner mechanic with OTJ gisa and geralf. In the 99, OTJ geralf can be a house with zombie recursion shenanigans.......30/30 just add haste.....his first ability, meh.......second ability is where it's at in an eternal format. the only mono-colored zombie commander I could see running is mikaeus with that black artifact that lets you pay 3 life to move your commander from the zone to your hand. lastly, if you really want to do some shenanigans then if you build a token heavy zombie deck then you can use zombie trailblazer to lock out your mono-blue opponents, lol.
The joke around 4:20 was great. Love it. Keep it up brother!

Nice, glad you enjoyed
Stinkdrinker Bandit is an interesting Rogue synergy piece as well.
You forgot to put gary (gray merchant) on your list^^
He could be a small win con and helps with the "life as a recource" cards.
Yeah, he just goes everywhere
Thank you for your Content. I appriciate your smooth and easy presentation of your thoughts.
Thanks brother
Great video brother!

Thanks man. I'm like Picasso. Underappreciated, then I'm like Van Gogh, one functioning ear.
@@bettercommander Lol. I hope you didn't send someone that ear to show them you love them
I can fix her, brother
Maybe with a wrench
Love the crazy look of the alt art. Too bad the wanted poster frame is so hideous :(
It's not awesome
Tbf the art is likely Out there. Make a custom card with the fram you like

Gotta send Gisa to see Alela's Dr., she can work miracles.
Hell yeah Willy!
Check out urborg for land based crimes, not the tomb
what do you think about adding in a breach the multiverse? a bit expensive, but i feel maybe worth
I love that card
@@bettercommander same, my buddies not so much lol

That's beautiful, makes me very happy.
My condolences on your phyrexian infection
Thanks man, turned out to be chlamydia.

Yeah, definitely a utility piece in those types of decks.
i want to be her zombie
I'd rather have her in the 99 of an Umezawa deck, 5 mana is so pricey

Why not run the new Gisa and Geralf.....
IN Gisa and Geralf?
i can fix her
Goth women are my weakness
Me too buddy, pretty much all of us are weak. That said, it's an interesting build around
1st for the algo gods
Am I the only one who thinks black is getting crazy boring?
Discard was shunned by the casual community, which is one of the best reasons to play black. Running out of design space
@@pistolpete7422 for real though. I miss it. Now every time I sit down with someone playing black I know exactly what to expect. It's a shame.
terrible analysis... gisa is still hot
