Where in the rulings does it say that he is legal? All of my resources are saying 100% banned because of his 7/7 lifelink then card draw. .-.

I am very curious because I have a spare Grissy in my binder and i would love to throw him in my Kaalia deck.

Nevermind. Found it. Thanks for the input. :)

God I would love this deck so badly I just dont have an extra soul to sell to buy everything id need lol, Just plus 1 from me and good job. Kaalia is my dream commander lol uhm only few suggestion would be Leyline of Sanctity and maaaaybe Leyline of Punishment but it also punishes you so not so sure. for faster meaner wins maybe try Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon amazing deck overall :)

Thanks, Death the Kid. Kaalia is pretty amazing.

i'm surprised not to see Sneak Attack in here. Sometimes people refuse to allow Kaalia to live long enough to trigger. It's these times that it comes in handy :) also instant speed triggers

Have you though of using Hammer of Purphoros?

iamnickhansen I thought about it, but Fervor accomplishes the same thing and only requires 1 , instead of the two the hammer requires. The second ability of Hammer of Purphoros isn't enough for me to need it.

Griselbrand is Banned, just sayin

Joyeuxmuffin - might want to recheck the banlist, this is duel. Just sayin.

Hall of the Bandit Lord maybe? Shinka, the Bloodsoaked Keep and Shizo, Death's Storehouse are mildly useful but don't hurt you any, so why the hell not right?

I tried Hall of the Bandit Lord and it always came at the wrong time and enters the battlefield tapped. I just use Fervor instead. The other two aren't terrible ideas, I'll look into those.

Wait... I think I forgot to put Vindicate into my own Kaalia list. err, thanks for the psudo-suggestion....

Lol no problem. Vindicate's pretty good.

Athreos, God of Passage is wicked good in any creature-heavy deck.

Ya know, Fetches are always good in EDH, and with the 5 being reprinted in KTK, I see little reason as to why they should not be in here, unless you're someone who dislikes off-color fetches in EDH. Well, at least you get Bloodstained Mire.

@myself, I apparently need reading glasses, as you have mire already... although It really makes sence to run all 9 fetches if you can, also, Crucible of Worlds really lets you go ham with fetches

Doctor_ando - while I thank you for the suggestion, Athreos gives my opponents a choice, which I don't particularly like to do. He also can't be cheated out with Kaalia.

nayrash5 I hope to someday be rich enough to run all nine fetches in these colors. As it stands, I'm presently out of money, and can't afford them. Unfortunately, Crucible of Worlds is banned in duel commander, otherwise I would definitely add it once I acquired more fetches.

Chaos Warp, Gamble and Reanimate might be worth considering.

This looks pretty grim indeed, +1 from me! Also thanks for your comment on my Aglophobia (EDH). I always felt like Spinerock Knoll would be a no-brainer since in Multiplayer it consistantly triggers even without any action of yours. Still I don't know if this is worth a slot in 1vs1 though...

I'll throw it in here and see how it plays. I can usually get seven damage in a turn.

Maralen of the Mornsong + Ob Nixilis, Unshackled + Stranglehold = way to good. Other wise beside my own personal tweeks, like above combo with Wound Reflection instead of Stranglehold, it looks solid enough.

Lol those are some pretty hilarious combos. I'm not sure how much application they have, but I'll surely add in Stranglehold. I've been looking for it but couldn't remember the name.

Thanks!

I feel like Stranglehold has gotten a lot worse now that Zur is banned.
