I threw this deck together for a Commander night pretty much out of whatever cards I had lying around that weren't doing anything else. It's already passed my very low expectations and found a couple of wins (Zurgo Helmsmasher + Worldslayer is wild), so I'm going to keep it around and mess with it, try to tune it up a little bit while keeping it true to its jankeriffic roots. I'm actively avoiding cards worth more than $4 unless I pull one from a booster or something (basing that on the Fervor that made it in), and I'm avoiding instant-speed "I win button" combos. (Zurgo Worldslayer gets a pass because it's mana-heavy and highly telegraphed. Vizkopa Guildmage is in the deck, and I use the Exquisite Bond combo in another deck, but I'm not going to do that here.)

(Do I need more parentheses?)

As the deck develops, my plan is to turn it into a more pure Battlecruiser-style deck, with big tough creatures swinging hard and fast. Not much finesse or subtlety here.

This is not my usual EDH strategy or style, so any thoughts, comments, or random musings are especially welcome for this one. As usual, the maybeboard contains the upgrades I'm thinking about. After all replacements, the final value of the deck will be about $30-40 higher.

Borderline includes: Ghostly Prison Minas Tirith

Likely cuts for nonland: Agent of Masks Armillary Sphere Bituminous Blast Burnt Offering Captain's Call Debt to the Deathless Executioner's Swing Flamerush Rider Gleam of Battle Harvester of Souls One Thousand Lashes Pawn of Ulamog Sin Collector Skull Rend Skyknight Legionnaire Suture Priest Terrarion Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts Tithe Drinker Traveler's Amulet Zealous Persecution

Likely cuts for land: Bloodfell Caves Forsaken Sanctuary 1x Mountain Orzhov Guildgate Rakdos Guildgate Scoured Barrens 4x Swamp Teetering Peaks Wind-Scarred Crag
