I was looking to make a new Mardu commander deck with Zurgo Helmsmasher as the commander. Looking through some cards, I decided to try to go the token route along with some live gain/opponent life loss shenanigans. The whole intent for that is to then play Havoc Festival and see how many turns that makes opponents lose life. I looked up some other decks for ideas, but pretty much had all the cards that I wanted already to make the deck. Originally was trying the warrior route, but maybe in the next build.

So, in playtesting the deck here, I have realized what the fun win-con can be. Ensure that you have the mana for it and somehow get Diabolic Revelation in hand. Search for 4 cards to play the next turn - Fanatic of Mogis, Gray Merchant of Asphodel, Cryptborn Horror and Havoc Festival. Provided that you have a decent amount of Red/Black devotion on board, you hit all opponents for some damage to make for a big Cryptborn Horror. You also should have gained some life, so you cast Havoc Festival and let the game play out....Or you just create a lot of tokens in order to cast Descent of the Dragons. I tried to pick most cards that stated EACH opponent, instead of TARGET opponent, but there are a few in there still that do well. Helps ensure equal amounts of damage...

Swapped out the Goblinslide for Dictate of the Twin Gods. Plays alright, as long as you are drawing all three mana colors!!!

Made some land changes....
