Following the Horde

Commander / EDH

Shadowrdr


My take on Horde that has changed over time based on my experience. I have learned I was going to be slower and more often or not needing to cast answers to problems before I could build a good board state. I went heavy on fetches and shocks for mana fixing which also gave me synergy with the Elementals with landfall not cheap but I always get what I need to cast Horde and even at 36 I'm on the light side for land which I make up for with mana fixing creatures and spells

Must haves that have been game changing for me as they can be recast from the graveyard each time Crib Swap for spot exile Fertilid for mana fixing Life from the Loam for mana fixing with no down side as I normally mill elementals into my graveyard as if they were in my hand with Horde Survival of the Fittest or Phyrexian Altar or Greater Goodare good ways to recycle utility elementals for value to be cast from the graveyard again Seedborn Muse because I can use Horde's ability at instant speed she makes sure I have the mana sources open to cast an Elemental on my opponent's turns Reveillark with Karmic Guide get a sac outlet and you can pretty much cast and draw all you want the one infinite combo my deck has With graveyard hate it's good to keep Grave Sifter so you can bounce your elemental to your hand Flickerwisp protects Horde from spot removal

Most importantly play politics Hordes isn't fast but can be powerful once you get going
