Maybeboard


I got Grimlock as a present years ago, and I just had to use it somehow. If you play tables that are fine with the occasional silver border, this deck might be for you.

At this point the amount of both dinosaurs and vehicles in Magic has reached critical mass, so it's finally time to play "Dinos in Cars". Heads up: If you're not into the "Universes Beyond" idea, some inclusions in this deck will probably put you off. (But then, so would its commander.)

  • Seems a bit light on creatures for a creature-based deck, but then again this is meant to be a bit of a pet deck with a theme, and I hope the vehicles can dial up the OOMPH somewhat.
  • The deck is borderline underserved in terms of card draw, but the ramp and removal suites are solid.
  • Had to make cuts somewhere, so there's not a lot of Lord effects or token generation. Our critters aim for quality over quantity.
  • Don't let the numbers fool you. Factoring in all the built-in cost reductions, the deck's true average CMC is roughly 3.9 - not low, but not desastrous. Plus, you know, lots of ramp and other cost reduction measures.
  • Various free-cast shenanigans work towards building an impressive board, the resilience spells look to keep it that way, and the two overrun effects are for closing out the game.

Enjoy! In the immortal words of Gregg Berger, "Me Grimlock kick butt!"

PS: The 'Maybeboard' is massive, but then the ways you could array your forces are manifold. Experiment with different stuff until you get the mix that's right for you! :)
