Yep. PUR applies, so I have to be wary when I flip Lili. Overwise I'm smart about when I play Lilianas.

FNM update: Added Geralf's Messenger, Phyrexian Obliterator, Leechridden Swamp, and Increasing Ambition.

Do you guys think Phyrexian Crusader is worth the infect kill?
December 16, 2015 2:36 p.m.
Nah, its one of those things,where if you run infect, you have to either run enough that if one infect creature dies it hasn't pit you back go square one or you just run Blightsteel Colossus which is generally a 1 hit kill.

enpc my only thought is the sheer amount of times that I can reoccur it, I can fuck some shit up.

Unless it eats a Swords to Plowshares. That would be super awkward :P
If you ran Hatred in the deck as well, I could see a lot more appeal. As it stands though, I still feel like it's a distraction more than anything else. Don't get me wrong, I really like the idea, I just don't know about the implementation .
At the end of the day, give it a go. If you don't like it, take it back out I guess.

enpc it's pro white...and I run Batterskull

Legit though, even with Batterskull it only gives you a 6/6 which isn't lethal in it's own right. And on top of that, Batterskull is 5 to equip. That being said though, you could probably try swapping something like Withered Wretch out for Crusader.

Needs Basalt Monolith for Infinite mana to Exsanguinate.

racc12364: While I did consider it in tge past, It crosses over into "I'm a dick" territory, and is unfun for me to play. I like to actually play magic, not just win.

Has anyone playtested Smothering Abomination? Thoughts on make a place for it here?

Harvester of Souls seems better IMO. Forced draw is not good. Better off having control over it.
December 23, 2015 11:05 a.m.
If that's the case, I'll test Grim Haruspex the 3 cmc is reanimated easier.

Miren, the Moaning Well is another sacrifice outlet that you can include in your land base. It does not facilitate turn 3 flips but it does flip Liliana later into the game while providing some amount of lifegain to cushion your weakness to aggro.
Diamond Valley costs a lot of money and I have no idea what your barrier on card price is. But it's a much better Miren with the downside that it doesn't tap for mana without help from Urborg.
Vampiric Tutor a 1 mana instant speed tutor should be pretty self-explanatory.
Diabolic Intent another copy of Demonic Tutor that helps you flip Liliana.
Mortuary Mire is a free reanimation spell on a black source.
What's your argument for not playing Massacre Wurm?
Bloodghast is a great card to feed into your sacrifice outlets so that you may flip your commander without actually losing anything. It's also very strong with Phyrexian Tower.

Midwest, Fist off, hello! Welcome to my deck.
Now to get your suggestions.
Thanks for the comments BTW.
January 2, 2016 10:09 a.m.
Got Graveborn Muse, Burnished Hart, Sheoldred, Whispering One and testing out Languish.
Set up a trade for a Damnation, and Polluted Delta.

Hope the trade goes through, Damnation would be a sweet pick up. And grats!

I actually traded it to this guy for the textless promo and a top.
January 8, 2016 2:21 p.m.
The trade went through, so I need to get Vampiric Tutor and this deck will match my paper copy.

Nice list! I want to build this commander for a while, I'll remember your list for sure!
The Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion combo is working in your deck? I run it on my Grenzo's Heartstone Quest deck, but I think if fit better in my list due to my cmdr ability, but I can be wrong.
Make some space for Reanimate, normally something big goes to the grave. You can tutor again with Sidisi, Undead Vizier and Rune-Scarred Demon or maybe win bringing back Gray Merchant of Asphodel.
I notice you mentioned Waste Not in the description, but is not in the deck anymore. It dind't work the way you expected?

Hey! Thanks for the comment BrenoSulz!
Mike and trike is how I win most games. This deck generates a lot o mana by late game and with all my tutors I can pull pieces together with ease.
I removed Waste Not because the only card that triggered it is Lili. It was great, but required set up and so I cut it for space concerns.

Depending on if he plays them, yes the PUR would go into effect.
