@@connorl0204 But that's all that Thrill of Possibility/Tormenting Voice/Cathartic Reunion *are.* They're spell that Rummage and Cantrip. You end up with the same number of cards in hand as you did before you cast the spell.
Jered and Ashley Severns looting is drawing then discarding, giving you the option to take whats best and pitch dead cards. Rummaging is discard then draw, meaning you have no choice but to make due with however dead those new cards may be. Mitch was inquiring if there was a name for a spell that rummages but still cantrips. I.e. thrill of possibility, which costs you the spell itself as well as one card to draw two cards.
I feel like a Blackblade Reforged would fit in real nicely with this deck, considering the amount of land ramping it'll be doing and the aggressive strategy it wants. Slap that bad boy on Radha and start one-shotting the table!
I mean, on one hand all it's doing is making sure Radha has one stack of her ability all the time On the other hand, *it's making sure Radha has one stack of her ability all the time*
Canopy Cover Ruling: This is not the same as hexproof. If, for example, you target one of your opponent’s creatures, your opponents won’t be able to target their own creature with spells or abilities.
TenebraePatruus Faithless Looting IS actually looting, because looting is draw-then-discard (whereas rummaging is the other order). Red does normally rummage, because it’s supposed to discard first to be a little more chaotic, but Faithless Looting is an exception to this pattern
At 12:34 The Enchantment doesn't grant hexproof because it's not functionally similar. You can enchant an opponent's creature preventing the opponent from targeting it; if it granted hexproof it would prevent you from targeting it.
2:40 and as always, first up, there's the actual star of the show, with me! I can get you a land out on Turn 2, and that's exactly what we want to do. As of this posting, my lowest TCGPlayer market price is $3.35 for my Commander 2014 printing. Please give me a proper reprint.
I was considering putting together a landfall commander deck. You just saved me a bunch of random searches. Thanks. Looking forward to playing this once the current zombie apocalypse is over and I can go to my LGS.
Bounce lands (even slow ones like Karoo lands, I think), fetches (you don't have to cut an arm and a leg, there are Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse), Drownyard Temple probably and the MVP land for this deck which many players are probably unaware of: Ghost Town.
I pulled lotus cobra and phylath last week and it prompted me to build a deck very similar to this. I finished it yesterday and I’m testing it out tonight with my group!
Literally just built a deck around her! Glad to see i hit several of the same cards, though I've also added in a +1+1 sub theme that gives Radha reach and trample (Longshot Squad, Bramblewood Paragon, etc), so if she can't go through it, she'll go over it to inflict Commander damage!
discard to draw is rummaging, named from the rummaging goblin. I am surprised there aren't some awaken cards to turn those lands into creatures. pretty sweet deck.
@@willmyers9013 Sure. I also don't want to go out of my way when they're not being talked about because they're, to quote, "boring and I don't want to." Especially when for the last 2 years it has been discussed. Especially when it would take a negligible amount of time to just say that he put those lands in, given the speed at which he does them anyway. Something like Rogue's Passage is a legitimate strategy for this deck, but it's a boring land, so we'll glaze over it, yeah? Again, in a deck tech where lands matter, I think it's a bit reasonable to expect the land base to be discussed, and a bit unreasonable to expect to dig for it.
Hey Mitch! You should do a video on how to budget upgrade the Zendikar Rising Commander decks! Since they are $20 MSRP you could do $30 of upgrades and keep it in tune with the rest of the channel!
Newest Radha has already earned her place as my current favorite commander. Another budget card I’ve found to be good with her is Into the Wilds. Since you can always know what your top card is with Radha out, it can make it easier to make sure you get that extra land on board in your upkeep
An interesting little synergy I discovered recently but haven't seen in many places is Retreat to Kazandu + Fertilid. Fertilid enters w/ two +1/+1 counters and lets you pay one and green and remove a counter to go find a basic into play tapped. So, with Retreat to Kazandu (or Evolution Sage for that matter) you can use Fertilid to pull a basic out of your deck, put a counter back on Fertilid, then do it again and again until you run out of mana.
Really nice deck tech! I was musing about making a gruul commander deck, I may draw a whole lot of inspiration from this! Also, love the puns. Every. Single. One. Of. Them.
Hey Mitch, there is a specific card I'm kind of surprised you didn't add from Commander2019, scaretiller. Sure it's not a power house or anything it's a great budget card. It can get you lands from your graveyard and from your hand onto the battlefield. I play in a fairly high-powered meta and I have never put the on to the battlefield and not gotten use out of it.
I love Radha, even made a $25 budget build for her on tapped out to start with. She is a blast, some other fun things you can do is buff her up and then use cards like Gravitic punch or Thud and throw her power in peoples faces. I also like putting Snake Umbra on Tunneling Geoped so every land drap draws you a card for each opponent you have. Deck is so fun and with Zendikar rising coming out theres a lot more fun options out there.
My lgs gave me a funny look when I asked for 14 Vastwood Surge.... Needless to say, I have too many decks, for example: My Radha is built slightly differently although it does contain a lot of the same cards. Although it is also a little pricier than $34, but less than the break the bank's $100. 1) Haste anthems so the beast tokens can attack the turn they come down. 2) Ashaya, Soul of the Wild - turns all non-token creatures into lands too so even more landfall triggers. 3) Beast Whisperer (And similar type cards) - card draw 4) Ancient Greenwardern - self-explanatory. 5) Azusa, Lost but Seeking - more lands. 6) Moraug,, Fury of Akoum - um.... yea...
You should have added Moraug, Fury of Akoum for extra Combat phases and Azusa, Lost but seeking, for 2 extra land drops. Both are around 7$ and Moraug might drop in price since Zendikar Rising just came out.
how is it whenever I think of a deck to build you come by like a day later with a full decklist? Anyway love the deck and I'm sure il be buying it soon and finding my own ways to upgrade it as well.
I got her in prerelease and I knew I was making an EDH deck with her the moment my opponent quadruple blocked her with four 2/3s with deathtouch and lost them all to a 12/12 first strike.
You usually put Edge of Autumn in green decks but is it really that good in this deck? This deck seems to accelerate way past 4 lands then it's a really dead card.
Mitch, PLEASE take a break.. I also need to eat you know, and all your amazing deck techs are NOT helping.. I did lose weight though, so thanks for that? i guess?
Nice one Mitch, love your (Ultra) Budget deck techs. They were the reason i came here and why i'm still here ;) I also appreciate the reduced speed of you talking!!
This card for as cheap as it is just feels like it does a lot and has a lot of potential. Opened one in a pack and even though not worth any money, it just feels like a great card
what about ashaya for the extra land synergy and the fact that out of nowhere if you have some creatures or even better a scuteswarm in play you instant go to town
Kodama's reach is arcane though which makes it strictly better (there is no downside but there might be an upside once in a full moon). Magic players tend to be perfectionistic so yeah, that's why it is slightly more expensive
Guys, i'm sorry im new to mtg. I have one simple question. Are these budget deck a bit competitive in the contest of local tournaments? cause if i check top commander deck, they cost around 500-2k dollars, which is very far from the price of these budget deck
These are casual decks. But tuned. He has a video about that I think? Anyway, it's a solid deck but will not win reliably in cEDH (competitive edh) format. Anyway what that means is they are great decks for the average person. If u are rich or want to win tournaments you may want to start with saffronOlive decks and go from there. He has his decks on mtggoldfish I think.
Yeah, I have a zacama deck and I'm really thinking this could easily go into the 99, on the lower end of the curve. If someone wants to deal with it that's one less card the opponent has.
Canopy Cover does not give hexproof. You can put it on an opponent's creature and it will "protect" the creature from its owner's spells. Kind of like how/why Spirit Link doesn't give Lifelink.
I propose that "Reasonable Upgrades" be renamed "Pig Out."
Seth B I second that
Discarding, then drawing, is called Rummaging, based on a goblin named Rummaging Goblin, don't know if that's exactly what you were asking but eh!
I think he was asking about effects that say discard x, draw x+1. Rummaging that actually cantrips.
@@connorl0204 But that's all that Thrill of Possibility/Tormenting Voice/Cathartic Reunion *are.* They're spell that Rummage and Cantrip. You end up with the same number of cards in hand as you did before you cast the spell.
Stray7 exactly. Mitch asked if there was a name for a rummage effect that cantrips.
wait uh don't we call that looting? hence the looter scooter

Xenagos God of Revels is also a good pick
Blackboard Reforged and Mage Slayer! Running those in my Radha Voltron deck.
Canopy Cover Ruling: This is not the same as hexproof. If, for example, you target one of your opponent’s creatures, your opponents won’t be able to target their own creature with spells or abilities.
Came here to say this lol
It also says that in the rulings
At about 7:10 , the slang "ping" applies to one damage whereas "shock" applies to two damage.
You didn’t talk about the 4 cheap lands that “fetch” for lands
Yeah, I was kind of surprised by that one as well.
Last time I was this early, wayfarers bauble was affordable. Seriously, though, love these decks!
Oh, so original
Yessss let’s go Mitch! The tech deck I’ve been looking forward to for ages!!
Blue loots, red rummages, referencing Merfolk Looter and Rummaging Goblin.
yeh...but Faithless LOOTING
TenebraePatruus Faithless Looting IS actually looting, because looting is draw-then-discard (whereas rummaging is the other order). Red does normally rummage, because it’s supposed to discard first to be a little more chaotic, but Faithless Looting is an exception to this pattern
@@tlblitz42 Faithless Looting was explicitly stated as a color pie break btw
Rezqy Amzadi Oh absolutely. Not a doubt in my mind that it’s a break for red
At 12:34 The Enchantment doesn't grant hexproof because it's not functionally similar. You can enchant an opponent's creature preventing the opponent from targeting it; if it granted hexproof it would prevent you from targeting it.
I've been trying to build this deck for a long time now and I swear I just keep overthinking it. Thanks for giving me a sane base to work with.
Last time I was this early, there was still jazz in the intro!
2:40 and as always, first up, there's the actual star of the show, with me! I can get you a land out on Turn 2, and that's exactly what we want to do.

Did Mitch cover what lands are going to be important for this deck? Did I miss that part?
No im wondering the same thing
Bounce lands (even slow ones like Karoo lands, I think), fetches (you don't have to cut an arm and a leg, there are Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse), Drownyard Temple probably and the MVP land for this deck which many players are probably unaware of: Ghost Town.

I was thinking about making a Radha deck but was holding off because of zendikar and budget reasons; very happy to see
Mitch is the master of shavings!

Tcg decklist

This deck could probably work on basics. But I’ve been trying to build a basics only deck so I could just be biased.
Glad to see you getting back to your roots and strengths: deck techs!
Hey Mitch! You should do a video on how to budget upgrade the Zendikar Rising Commander decks! Since they are $20 MSRP you could do $30 of upgrades and keep it in tune with the rest of the channel!
Newest Radha has already earned her place as my current favorite commander. Another budget card I’ve found to be good with her is Into the Wilds. Since you can always know what your top card is with Radha out, it can make it easier to make sure you get that extra land on board in your upkeep
I would love to see a break the bank for this deck! I just made Radha (non budget) just curious to see how you’d build her

3 minutes ago, nice! Deck sounds interesting, and I've been thinking about building a Gruul deck...
Sorry Mitch, haven't seen your shaver
Proud Wildbonder and Archetype of Agression are all stars in my Radha, Heart of Keld deck!!!
Decks like this it's really useful to call out useful utility lands like rouge's passage
Damn dude i have never been this early. Thanks for the upload!
real fans are here rn XD
Really nice deck tech! I was musing about making a gruul commander deck, I may draw a whole lot of inspiration from this!
Also, love the puns. Every. Single. One. Of. Them.
Awsome deck list I think this might be my first landfall deck. I'd really love to see a buget upgrade of the newzendikar precons.
Thanks for the great vids! Really helping out a new player here :) was wondering if avenger of zendikar would have a place in this deck?
Like the beard. Keeps the face warm as the weather begins to cool.

My brother has a Saheeli deck, my build is definitely going to have Wilderness Reclamantion and Release the Gremlins.
My lgs gave me a funny look when I asked for 14 Vastwood Surge.... Needless to say, I have too many decks, for example:
My Radha is built slightly differently although it does contain a lot of the same cards. Although it is also a little pricier than $34, but less than the break the bank's $100.
1) Haste anthems so the beast tokens can attack the turn they come down.
2) Ashaya, Soul of the Wild - turns all non-token creatures into lands too so even more landfall triggers.
3) Beast Whisperer (And similar type cards) - card draw
4) Ancient Greenwardern - self-explanatory.
5) Azusa, Lost but Seeking - more lands.
6) Moraug,, Fury of Akoum - um.... yea...
Morag Fury of Akoum is an absolute beast in this deck, for people looking to add some upgrades up to that usual $50 mark
Yes. This is the best idea on making budget decks below $50
Rummaging is the the term for discard first then draw.
I think this discard and then draw mechanic that many red cards have is or was referred as rummaging because you don't know what you are going to get.
I think a one off setesan trainong is good too. 1G for trample and a card draw. Neat lil thing
You should have added Moraug, Fury of Akoum for extra Combat phases and Azusa, Lost but seeking, for 2 extra land drops. Both are around 7$ and Moraug might drop in price since Zendikar Rising just came out.
Ngl Im liking the more humor added in
“deception and lying, things friends do”
Ummm are you ok? Do you wanna talk about it?
He's fine. He's just a commander player.
Eh it’s called politics
how is it whenever I think of a deck to build you come by like a day later with a full decklist? Anyway love the deck and I'm sure il be buying it soon and finding my own ways to upgrade it as well.
Mitch has been extra sassy lately and I am living for it.
Thanks for another great vid Mitch! Keep it up! Stay safe dude :)
real fans are here rn XD
One of my favorite decks yet!!!
Idk if potential suggestions go here but I have had fun try Kaza Roil Chaser from the new Zendikar Rising set (she is bulk ATM)
Laughs manically in fireball for 40. I now have all the lands in my deck.
Surprised you didn't reccomend lotus cobra in reasonable upgrades. It's really good.
Big fan of Radha, budget courser with upside is always great
I got her in prerelease and I knew I was making an EDH deck with her the moment my opponent quadruple blocked her with four 2/3s with deathtouch and lost them all to a 12/12 first strike.
Thanks Mitch!
What the heck Mitch you didn't use the yargle art for explore
Guys, we technically (finally) have a Omnath, Locus of Rage deck. Just take out rhada and it's closer than any other deck he has made
Would avenger of zendikar not fit in this deck?for a deck that cares for lands and is big with landfall I would kinda expect him to be a good fit.
Super unpopular opinion. You can use prototype portal with the artifact lands and get a free landfall perturn
You usually put Edge of Autumn in green decks but is it really that good in this deck? This deck seems to accelerate way past 4 lands then it's a really dead card.
Mitch, PLEASE take a break.. I also need to eat you know, and all your amazing deck techs are NOT helping.. I did lose weight though, so thanks for that? i guess?

Last time I was this early Scute Swarm is still $8. Seriously though, it's bottoming out.
Preordered it at $1.50 ahahahahah
I bet it will keep on dropping until it only costs 2 bucks or less.
Robert Strong-Morse bought it at my lgs for 2.00
I had a Wonderful Dream , the 25 bucks decks have back
Entirely unrelated but what deck do you think was the hardest to build so far?
Please make a break the bank version of this
what about ashaya for the extra land synergy and the fact that out of nowhere if you have some creatures or even better a scuteswarm in play you instant go to town
I clicked a new CQ video. No idea which commander it was til Mitch said it.
is kodama's reach actually more expensive than cultivate? they are basicly the same card
Kodama's reach is arcane though which makes it strictly better (there is no downside but there might be an upside once in a full moon). Magic players tend to be perfectionistic so yeah, that's why it is slightly more expensive
@@veldin4108 What about Hisoka's Defiance? Sometimes a cultivate is better. Kodama's reach is just less reprinted.
Also there are more copies of Cultivate floating around, especially with the M21 reprint
Radha is hands down my favorite mtg character!
Of course you are
No azusa in the upgrades?
What about using Roiling Regrowth as a ramp card?
Valakut the Molten Pinnacle is game breaking with this deck, if only it was affordable
“Let me know if you’ve seen my shaver” 😂😂😂
So for the patrons who haven’t been paying attention, where do this voting happen?
I believe there is a monthly poll on Mitch's Patreon
Love the vote hoodie.
I have not seen your shaver mitch, however, i suggest you maintain your wondrous beard fit the coming winter. Looking sharp!
Also you should go onto FRiday knights by the command zone again build a new deck and make a video on it!

Ive been wondering why she hasn't been in the 99 of any of these recent decks.
Yeah, I have a zacama deck and I'm really thinking this could easily go into the 99, on the lower end of the curve. If someone wants to deal with it that's one less card the opponent has.
THANK YOU!
"Deception and lying, things friends do!" Mitch, do you need some help?
All signs set on landfall nowadays. **rumbles in sad equipment/artifact matters noises**
Can we get a Kaza, roil chaser decktech? Pleease, she is not getting much attention
Why dont you include natures claim in more decks?
I love how you think Spell Mastery is a weird mechanic, but you think Explore is easy to remember.
blink, comes from blinking spirit, flicker, comes from flicker, and spell mastery isn’t weird it’s awesome. Good work mitch keep up the great content
wayfarer’s bauble does NOT belong in a green deck.
Bauble? (Said before watching)
Edit: Bauble!
Me!
Just when I was thinking about building radha last night haha
Never heard a razor be called a shaver
Another roar smash gruul commander. I'm totally okay with this 🙂
She has first strike, which significantly improves the smashing if not the roaring
Canopy Cover does not give hexproof. You can put it on an opponent's creature and it will "protect" the creature from its owner's spells. Kind of like how/why Spirit Link doesn't give Lifelink.
Well I'm not early, but I am sure here!
Where is avenger of Zendikar in this deck ?!?!?!?!?!
I prefer the less than $50 videos bc i can see myself just picking up a deck for $30 bucks easy but I wouldnt do the same with $50
I love rhada she is a less powerful comander for my omnath deck
