This is a Golos, Tireless Pilgrim Commander deck with themes of "snow matters" and "Marit Lage Tribal". The story of this deck is actually kind of interesting. It actually started as Atraxa Snow as we tried to brainstorm, "What is the least threatening way to build an Atraxa Deck?" However, this ran into two problems. First the desire to have WUBG early to cast Atraxa clashed strongly with the Snow Theme as we had to play a large number of non-basics to hit consistently. This meant fewer Snow Lands and, therefore, fewer Snow Permanents. Second, wanting to have things to proliferate onto also began to cut into Snow permanent slots, so the themes of the deck continued to clash with one another. Eventually, we decided to cut all of the proliferate stuff entirely in favor of Dark Depths combo as, realistically, that is the only good thing that Snow can do in commander. "Lands Matters" stuff began to creep into the deck and, as Atraxa became more and more as just a front for a deck completely unrelated to her, the deck continued to underperform. It was actually my wife who saw me play Golos in a different "Legends Matter" style deck and said "Why don't we make that the commander of the Marit Lage deck?". And that leads us to today.

The goal of this deck is to create as many Marit Lage as possible. Winning is sort of secondary, making this a 5-6 on the power scale at the highest. Once you have one or more ways to crank out Marit Lage, the goal is to hit Sakashima, Helm of the Host, or Mirror Gallery and make it so that the number of 20/20 flying indestructables on the board are too damn high. As it turns out, people only have so many answers to Marit Lage. The first and second time, people can deal with it, but third? Fourth? Fifth? It becomes much tougher. So if you have a thing for giant flying spaghetti monsters but Emrakul is just too small to fit the bill, step right this way and pick this deck up. You'll have a wonderful time, as we have.
