Doomsday Yennet

Commander / EDH*

Naakan


My take on the (in my opinion) coolest new commander from the C18 Pre-Cons. It has some pure goodstuff, and a general control shell with some counters and basic removal. Scroll Rack is busted in this deck, so i have a few sources to find it or Top, along with JTMS for repeated Brainstorms.

The main purpose and wincon of this deck however is Doomsday, along with Yennet. It's not the normal, "competetive" take on Doomsday-piling but relies on Yennet in a way that makes it feel fresh and unique as a wincon for this deck. The pile you make can be one of these, and probably others as well:

1: Extra turn, Counterspell, Extra turn, Lab Maniac, Extra Turn. Play doomsday first main, attack with yennet on someone who can't kill it with blockers, then take turns and make sure to play Lab Maniac protected by the Counterspell before taking your final turn.

2: A more fun variant: Extra turn, Extra turn (That you have enough mana to hardcast), Plague Wind or Garruk's Wake, Any card that you're fine with normally drawing, and Nexus of Fate. Same as before, DD first main and attack with yennet, giving your first extra turn. Draw your next and hardcast it, attack to freecast one-sided boardwipe, draw a card next turn and then attack to freecast Nexus of Fate. You need to have 7 mana to hardcast NoF every turn too, as you'll be drawing it naturally, but you effectively have infinate attacks with your commander or any other creature for the win. If there are creatures that are Indestructible that won't die to a boardwipe, then just involve some unblockable effects like Aqueus Form or Whispersilk Cloak and smash away.

This list isn't tuned at all, it could do very well with more ramp and better tutors, but my playgroup doesn't play cEDH so we don't overtune our decks. Just the inclusion of Demonic and Vampiric tutor would do very well, however.
