Changelings are dinosaurs too ya know. Mirror Entity is a pretty cool guy. Berserkers' Onslaught seems of interest to you.

I originally had changelings in the deck, but I took them out for there are a lot of good dinosaurs. Berserkers' Onslaught might make it back into the deck too. I really like Double Strike.

What do you think of the card Helm of the Host

May 21, 2018 11:47 p.m.

CardTyrant says... #4

I like it and all, but I don't see its use in Gishath. Sure you can clone her and get more activations, but one or two attacks, the game is pretty much over most of the time for me. I like Helm in Nazahn decks.

Steely Resolve is a nice tribal protection enchantment that can protect your dinosaurs.

I'd say Heroic Intervention and Boros Charm are both very important to protecting your dinosaurs and the charm is even better for sudden double strike on Gishath. Both cards also enable a potential Forerunner of the Empire, Polyraptor / Raptor Hatchling infinite token enrage win con with the indestructibility.

I've also personally had success running a damage board wipe package alongside the indestructibility spells (and Temple Altisaur ) like Blasphemous Act, Star of Extinction, and Wave of Reckoning just to get that enrage value. Board wipes hurt in Gishath, but sometimes you just have to. You can at least get something out of it if you have enrage dinosaurs out using those spells. Getting the occasional one sided wipe with the package of cards alongside enrage has always felt good.

Hornet Nest is also hilarious with those wipes and is pretty nice for help against flying threats. Chaosphere is also a cool enchantment against flying heavy metas.

Look at this

http://mythicspoiler.com/m19/cards/runicarmasaur.html

Not only you finally get a stegosaurus

it only cost 3 it's a 2/5

And if it catches a opponent activating a land or creature ability that isn't mana ability you get to draw

TheDeckMaker2300: I saw it, I am so excited for M19. Not only do I get two new dinos (maybe more will come) but I also get a new Planeswalker that I like. BUT WAIT! I also get some great new Sarkhan Planeswalkers and great new dragons for my Ur-Dragon deck. I am so pumped! Buying two booster boxes and the Sarkhan Planeswalker deck.

Love your deck list :). And thanks for the suggestions. I’ll have to test out your suggestions.

I counted the cards in the deck and it ends up being 112 cards

July 19, 2018 2:11 a.m.

CardTyrant says... #10

Miguelrocks LOL. Did you not notice that some cards repeat? I have the custom categories on, and I tried to get cards that go into two or more categories. If you change it to the normal view, you'll notice that it's still only 100.

CardTyrant lol no I didn't see that

AttilatheFun says... #12

I like it. I think I may have to steal this list to help me get started on my own lol.

You may have answered this already but why did you choose not to run stuff like Mirari's Wake or Zendikar Resurgent?

Meurth says... #13

Cultivate and Kodama's Reach of course

munky702 says... #14

What about cards like Radiant Destiny or Vanquisher's Banner

August 22, 2018 9:03 a.m.

CardTyrant says... #15

munky702: I actually run the Banner already, but am thinking of taking it out for better card draw. Radiant Destiny is a no go as well. Dinos, much like Dragons, don't need much of a boost.

munky702 says... #16

Oh i got ya, I was looking at the maybe board when I saw your artifacts. And you're right. Figured I'd give it a shot lol

August 22, 2018 7:32 p.m.

You know you can bring the game to a draw with Polyraptor and AEther Flash? and if you want to actually win with it lol, play effects like Impact Tremors or Warstorm Surge

Maybe look into Elvish Piper

the deck looks amazing, 1 question that you may have answered though...why do you play Keeper of Progenitus and not Mirari's Wake ? i believe the difference in mana cost would more than make up for the fact that it doesn't allow your opponents to also double their mana output....plus it gives all your creatures +1/+1....win win?

sleepyhead1991 Honestly, never even thought of it. When I update the deck, I might have to do that.

Hey CardTyrant

Cool deck! Im really stuck between building this or Zacama, Primal Calamity .

But looking at your list, why didnt you include Samut, Voice of Dissent ? I think giving all your creatures haste and the ability to untap big blockers would be super nice to include.

January 21, 2019 11:45 a.m.

CardTyrant says... #23

kevinscheurwater - I don't run Samut for a few reasons. The first is that most of my creatures (if the game is playing right) will be coming out from Gishath, so they will have to wait a turn to attack anyway. The untap is just for one creature, and if I need to block, I would most likely hold back. Samut seems like a great card, but it feels like she wants to be the leader of her own deck and not in the 99.

Zacama is an amazing commander, but not for Dinosaur tribal. Zacama is a great combo deck, I feel.

Ripwater says... #24

CardTyrant, you might have a point there :)

How well do you do against certain types of decks? Aggro/Control/Stacks etc..

January 21, 2019 3:24 p.m.

CardTyrant says... #25

kevinscheurwater: Other aggro decks it's 50/50. If they are tiny swarms, as long as I can ramp into Gishath, I normally can stabilize. Control decks are a nightmare to battle out of, and Stax decks are not in my meta, but I can imagine that they will win most of the time. This deck is mostly used against other tribal decks.
