All mirrors show BEEEEES!!!!

Commander / EDH Combo RUG (Temur)

ModernEraJazz


This deck is inspired by a deck I saw on reddit that played Marath bees. The object of the deck is to abuse Hornet Nest-like by using massive damage effects, such as Blasphemous Act, to create an immense amount of BEEEEEESSS! Pay offs for which lie in Purphoros, God of the Forge and Impact Tremors, the plan C being Goblin Bombardment. I traded in White for Blue in order to run Riku of Two Reflections because I believe he synergizes better with the "nest" creatures. Being able to make a copy of the nesters at will can be crucial in one-shotting opponents with Tremors instead of Purphoros and other words he feels like a better value engine. The only major losses is the inability to effectively search for enchantments, which is replaced by a grindy control deck in lieu of that; and the loss of aura shards, which is very good with this deck. What is lacked in removal is made up for in card advantage. Access to blue gives infinitely better draw spells and also opens up counterspells, which can be crucial in protecting the combo. All in all, Riku allows for smoother and less "all-in" running and I hope to see it in the running for one of my favorite decks.
