Godo Helm of The Host Experimental

Commander / EDH Competitive Infinite Combo Mono-Red

Experimental Godo list using COW, SDT, Fetchlands, Sword of X or Jitte Instead of Argentum Armor.

List is based on the Primer list from the Red Love Godo Discord : https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/waiting-for-godo-cedh-primer/?cb=1527559223

This experimental build is taking the more resilient route. It uses less dead cards and more utility cards. Also less use Fork effects since the deck dalways taps out more often than not.

Argentum Armor is cut to make space for equipment that will fit the metagame. For Me, I would be testinmg Jitte and Sword of X (choose a color thats common in your meta).

I go against alot of Green and Blue decks, I chose Sword of Body and Mind. Argentum Armor is great, WHEN IT EQUIPS AND ATTACKS with GODO. But when it doesnt equip, Argentum is a very clunky card and very hard to get online and get the desire effect. I chose SoBaM because of the evasion to U and G, easier to cast and equip in case you draw it, plus the mill effect. The beast tokens that you get are just a bonus, can be used for more beats or blockers. Mill is a form of disruption. I recognize that the mill can backfire versus graveyard decks.

For Blind Metagames,, Jitte is probably the Best Choice. Its the easiest to cast and same to equip as SobaM. Jitte has no evasion, but you can kill the opponents faster if unblocked, or gain life (very handy after a failed treasonous ogre combo attempt), or kill creatures at instant speed ( labman combos). Very good equipment.

Point is, I want cards that are never dead, so I want to use them immediately. Argentum Armor is 6 to cast and 6 to equip. Even if you tutor it into play,you will need hammer of nazahn to make it work. The 2 to equip equipment is more practical due to its cheaper to use mana-wise.

Deck uses Senseis Divining Top. It will use top for deck manipulation to improve card quality. Crucible of Worlds is used to make the deck have consistent land drops and will allow recursion of utility lands (fetchlands, utility lands, sac lands). CoW will is a card advantage engine for the long game especially when stax pieces hit the board (stoney silence, null rod, sphere of resistance and the like, winter orb etc).

Dual Caster Mage is in the deck as the only Fork effect. But its thereso that the deck can have an alternate win con with Heat Shimmer/Twinflame.

Still work in progress....

Testing Pyroclasm vs. Anger of the Gods

Pyroclasm works better in a sphere of resistance /hate bear environment when tax effects can make Anger of The Gods harder to cast.
