I like the deck a lot! I have a kresh deck (I'd Kill To Have Hair Like That) as well and a couple cards that have been really powerful for me have been Jarad's Orders + Brawn + Malignus /Lord of Extinction . Runes of the Deus and Flesh / Blood have ended games. Birthing Pod as well is just an amazing sac engine. Shizo, Death's Storehouse is another way to make sure he gets through, and it doesnt even enter tapped. Disciple of Bolas is a good sac engine that nets you a lot of cards. Shriekmaw and Spitebellows can be used to put a boatload of counters on kresh. Finally, Consuming Vapors is, at least in my opinion, a straight upgrade to Tribute to Hunger .

Hey man
I would cut Goblin Sappers , I think there are better cards for unblockable. Another nice addition, thats not in the maybeboard is Overwhelming Stampede .
I have a Jund deck, maybe you find some additions there:
Feedback would be appreciated :)
Hope I helped ;)

adt630: Many of the cards you named have already been included at one point or another, and were removed for various reasons. I do like Shizo, Death's Storehouse
however and have included it in place of a swamp. Also, as far as Consuming Vapors
vs. Tribute to Hunger
goes, I really like the fact that Tribute to Hunger
is an instant and can be played when it isn't my turn, which seals that deal for me.
rathalos3000: Goblin Sappers
is one of my all time favorite cards and has been since I first started playing Magic as a young lad, as such, it's very difficult for me to take it out. There is other ways of becoming unblockable included, with Goblin Sappers
just being another option. I do, however, like the idea of including Overwhelming Stampede
as a wincon, but am unsure what to remove for it.
Thank you both for your suggestions!

Maybe remove Corpsejack Menace for it? I dont know if its really necessary. And yes, I understand what you mean with the goblin ;)

I'd be tempted to remove the abbysal gatekeeper and put the greater good in. Also there is no Ring of Kalonia which is generally a strong way of giving kresh and other strong creatures trample. Also Hamletback Goliath is a solid card along with Taurean Mauler . Also Akroma's Memorial and Staff of Nin and Deathrender are some very strong artefacts that should probably be considered :)
Luving the deck though, all of the sacrifice. +1 back at ya

I. used to play a really competitive kresh deck, literally every piece was destruction or fighting control. Kresh would get bigger from other peoples creatures dying. It worked stupidly well. It wasn't bogged down by creatures without some destruction utility. Just food for thought.

Unless you'll only be playing 1v1's with this deck, I would strongly suggest running a Lightning Reaver .

Greater good instead of flowstone slide possibly? Greater Good is an INSANE card! If ever they threaten to destroy a creature...you just sac it. If you have no cards in hand? Sac something :D Also saccing in response to tucking or anything. Definately do that if I was you.

Have you considered using Chandra's Ignition as an alternate direct-damage spells for Kresh? How about a Phytotitan, or Mycoloth for pumping recursion?
I too run Kresh as my commander, and I've realized that there are some other direct-damage spells I've missed. So thanks for making this deck!

Just starting my own commander deck to play casually with friends. I chose between Varolz, Savra and Kresh and went with Kresh. I Think im gonna go for more of a +1/+1 counter theme but seeing your deck offers much needed inspiration :) Thanks for sharing your ideas and +1!

I just recently built a Kresh deck myself and I was astounded that I didn't see Black Market in this deck, Black market has been a game saver a lot. I also run more if a sacrifice outlet using cards such as Endrek Sahr, Pawn of ulamog and more to ensure I have enough fodder to consistently sacrifice. And I find I get more used out of mass kill effects over target spells such as Terminate. This deck is definitely helpful to add a few things I didn't think of, however I think I'll still with the sac-stack side of Kresh.
