Golos, making this up as I go

Commander / EDH

LordVonChimp


Started of as 5c X Mana Hydras.... now it's something else.

I love this deck though, so always tinkering with it to improve it, and feeling around for suggestions on swap out X mana cards, even though I won a game with a late play of Debt to the Deathless a few weeks ago, Golos doesn't really work well with anything that's got X in the mana cost, so all those fun cards will get cycled to an X Mana tribal when I find a suitable 5c commander.

Anyways, with this, I'm looking for cards that would really bomb when revealed with Golos' ability. I'm sure there are many, many fun things I'm yet to discover so very keen for suggestions!

When I spotted Soulherder sat in my folder and figured it would be good to flicker Golos, Tireless Pilgrim for lands, it got me wondering what else would be good to flicker, and I still had cards with X mana costs in the deck such as Hydroid Krasis and Debt to the Deathless, which are great cards and I don't wanna drop them, but they have huge potential to be dead cards unless I draw them, so they have to go. God-Pharaoh's Gift also got the chop, though looking back it now, i think that card may have had it's uses. Pulling back dead flicker pieces for one last hurrah would have been funny!

The replacements came in the forms of Ravenous Chupacabra, Reclamation Sage and Bonds of Mortality. The latter because of a certain player in the LGS how seals his stuff up with layers of Hexproof and Indestrutable, so it was a direct answer to that, and the number of Archetype of Endurance that also do the rounds.

But the real MVP came in the form of a card already in the deck, and although it came to nothing in the end, flickering Deepglow Skate and retrieving it from the graveyard via Planewide Celebration several times, plus one activation of Vorel of the Hull Cade led to an Astral Cornucopia cast for 1 counter, having 98 counters when it was destroyed. Which i can't blame anyone for doing, if I untapped with that, I would have cast Heroes' Bane and activated it 24 times..

A 67,108,864 / 67,108,864 hydra with haste, thanks to Rhythm of the Wild. It never came to be, but I'm happy knowing it could have been.

All in all, happy with this deck, and painted a huge target on it for next time I play it.
