Gishath is objectively bad, but subjectively fun for people who enjoy having WotC build their deck for them. Tribal is inherently boring, but who cares when you can play Dinosaurs (rawr xdd). The main play is to really just use the deck to smash people with Gishath before they can stabilize, but Gish is 8cmc and that requires a lot of ramp and a lot of luck to pull off. You want him down by turn 5; if you can do that then you have a shot. I run Landwipes because a tri-color tribal deck with an 8cmc commander needs all the help it can get, and you don't need mana after you've stuck Gishath because he can put creatures onto the battlefield without it.

Feel free to criticize, suggestions welcome.
