Godo, Bandit Warlord | Equipment Voltron

Commander / EDH* Artifact Casual Mono-Red Voltron

teodorofelipe


This is a VOLTRON Deck

The main objective for victory is to deal 21 Commander Damage with Godo, Bandit Warlord. This doesn't happen right away, as playing Equipment and Godo, Bandit Warlord require hefty amounts of mana.

This deck is build around abusing ETB abilities like godo's and tutoring (yes, tutor in red deck) for pieces to setup and achieve victory.

Ramp/Mana doublers Not much to be said here, since casting Godo and equiping will cost a lot of mana, we go for it:

Myriad Landscape, Temple of the False God, Everflowing Chalice, Sol Ring, Mind Stone, Sword of the Animist, Generator Servant, Burnished Hart, Extraplanar Lens, Solemn Simulacrum, Treasonous Ogre, Chandra, Torch of Defiance, Koth of the Hammer, Gauntlet of Might, Gauntlet of Power, Caged Sun.

Card Draw This is red so draw is not the "red thing"

Stromkirk Occultist, Prophetic Flamespeaker attacking, Outpost Siege, Chandra, Torch of Defiance, Chandra, Pyromaster, Trading Post, Vance's Blasting Cannons  , Omen Machine and when you have enough mana, sacrifice : Mind Stone, Solemn Simulacrum

ETB enablers The whole idea of the deck is to abuse then:

Mimic Vat, Feldon of the Third Path, Nim Deathmantle with a dead corpse, Panharmonicon, Flameshadow Conjuring when cast, Flamerush Rider, Felhide Spiritbinder, Twinflame, Heat Shimmer and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker on target.

ETB abuse the ETB creatures:

Godo, Bandit Warlord for equipment,

Duplicant for creature removal,

Flametongue Kavu for creature dmg,

Hoarding Dragon with Trading Post for recursion,

Solemn Simulacrum for mana.

Recursion Recycling for a better life:

Batterskull return to hand, cast again, always have a creature to equip.

Nim Deathmantle 4 mana to let someone alive.

Trading Post many interactions with copied tokens that disappear in the end of yout turn.

Junk Diver, Myr Retriever and Daretti, Scrap Savant Because you wanna use artifacts again.

Other wincon Sometimes, Godo, Bandit Warlord dies too much...

Kazuul's Toll Collector, Vulshok Battlemaster or Champion of the Flame + EQUIPMENTS + Bludgeon Brawl + ARTIFACTS

Early Game Simple setup with mana ramp, card draw and equips, nothing really problematic.

Mid Game That is were we live, you gotta abuse Godo trigger and get the best equips for the situation you have in hands, with the etb enablers, tutor for every equipment you need to go for 21.

Late Game Time to use recursion and get your field up again and prepare Godo for beatdown.

I have no intention of using any of the following cards.

Please don't suggest them.

I don't use them for a reason.

Key to the City* Not very good of a effect, better use a equip to have evasion.

Conjurer's Closet* Out since it makes Godo lose equips.

Spine of Ish Sah* Out because the deck lacks enough means to abuse it.

Lightning Greaves* Out for Swiftfoot Boots

Strata Scythe* Out for Blackblade Reforged

Unstable Obelisk* Out for Doubling Cube

Tamiyo's Journal* Out for Vance's Blasting Cannons  

Grafted Exoskeleton* cause OHKO with infect is ugly and not fun.

Helm of the Host* cause one piece infinite bombo is not fun either.

Kusari-Gama* Out because you don't wanna Godo to be blocked.
