I started playing commander with this angry boy right here about 6 years ago when I had no idea how anything worked and a few friends and I were figuring out this crazy complicated game called Magic.

A lot has happened since then, but I still have this deck and it is still one of my absolute favorite decks to pull out and play. Angry Omnath just has so much going on and is just so fun to pilot.

The strategy with this deck is: play lands, make creatures, go boom. Omnath costs 7 mana, that is no small price tag, but in this deck we have a plethora of ways to get extra lands onto the battle field so that even once our furious leader has been removed 6 times in a game, casting him for 19 is still just not that big of a deal. This deck focuses on landfall token production, Warstorm Surge type effects, and abusing Mr. Mad's trigger allowing him to deal 3 damage when an elemental dies. We do this last one with a variety of sac outlets, that each provide some kind of additional value.

Lastly, making 5/5's each time a land enters the battle field is crazy value when you have a surge effect, or a sac outlet to bolt someone, but combat is still wildly effective when you have 8 5/5's and a Moraug, Fury of Akoum or a Coat of Arms on the field. This combat suite is something I'm debating on taking out. I can't decide if I am focusing on too many things and need to narrow in on the main gameplan a little more.

The maybe board are cards I am in the process of trying to acquire.

This deck is very powerful and has many different routes to the finish line. I enjoy the heck out of this deck and am always looking to tune and tweak it. Suggestions are more than welcome, please share your thoughts or advice!
