I dont think Keranos is a tier 3 CEDH deck, its more like T1.5 or T2.

Keranos is in the same boat as Kruphix, and his "draw" ability is unreliable. I dont see how he can leave tier 3. Kruphix i thought had a chance, but only to 2.5 max

Keranos Blood Moon is a real deck and it's pretty good. It uses the mana denial strategies of old Daretti decks (MLD, Stranglehold, Blood Moon, Vandalblast) backed up by strong blue support cards (counterspells, bounce spells, Arcane Laboratory, Mana Maze, Frozen AEther, As Foretold). Keranos' ability is useful for card draw, removal, or pressuring life totals, and he's indestructible so he almost never goes away. It's a solid tier 2.

Hello everyone, I am trying to brew a competitive The Scarab God Deck, right now it is an absolute mess, and needs another 7 cards.

please take a look, tell me if you think I'm on the right track, and post any ways to clean it up.

usually at the bottom of the comment box, there is a white button (unless the thread or deck creator changed the formatting). That button will subscribe you. But welcome to the page.

well now I feel stupid... Thanks though!

Btw, the list for Thrasios is a Hermit Druid/Protean hulk combo deck, even if that is the cmdr's best build could you also link some of the other competitive versions? (specifically Dramatic Scepter)

October 23, 2017 6:39 p.m.

off a cursory glance: Thrasios Paradox Storm, T&T diverse combo, Doomsday / High Tide, Thrymna EDH all seem pretty ok cEDH wise. We also have the partner pairs listing in the description so you may get some luck there. Good luck :)

I would like to submit my Numot, the Devastator deck. It aims to land many stax and control pieces early, then win with Dramatic Reversal Isochron Scepter or with Helm of Obedience and Rest in Peace. Numot himself can also be a wincon with voltron.

how does Helm of Obedience perform in multiplayer?

October 23, 2017 11:04 p.m.

for one, you need white or black for helm to work. second, helm is quite mana intensive so you need a stax or tax deck to work. all in all.... its meh to me

Think Toshiro Umezawa is worthy to move up to tier 3?

October 24, 2017 12:25 a.m.

I swear there is storm potential since you can storm off a boardwipe if you need to go off. if you want to build a list, im sure there are decent storm bases for you to use.

So, I have been working on Feldon, Shaper gave me a bit of inspiration and I've come up with a pretty good shell. Obviously not tier 1 or anything and obviously in need of more work but I've hit a wall and need some help minmaxing it. Would be glad for assistance.

Feldon start

I explain a bit in the description how there are multiple overlaps between the combos, E.G Kiki jiki can fill in for a double Feldon activation, etc.

Had a few tests where I was actually able to storm off with Paradox engine since Feldon could keep reanimating GDD over and over giving me 2x casts per spell.

My take on toshiro Get 3 coffins ready It focuses more on control, reanimation, and generating zombies

SO, I was lookiing at Grixis Storm and I have 2 questions:

1. Why is Jeleva still tier 1? doesn't Kess easily steal that spot? I understand why she was kept T1 when Yidris came out, but I can't find any reason to run her over Kess.

2. Why isn't Illana Tier 1-2, seems to me like she's Grixis storm which, rather than providing gass makes some of the Wizards better (Hapless Researcher, Snapcaster Mage, etc)

October 24, 2017 6:01 p.m.

Jaleva and kess are not exactly the same deck. Kess helps the deck start earlier but kess helps with consistency. Stoping Jaleva in the middle of the storm hurts immensely but is balanced out by the early win-ability. Kess can just pick right back up but is slower by about 1.5 turns IMO (dont have data to back up this number, its just a feel for where I think the decks lie.

Secondly I assume you mean Inalla, Archmage Ritualist. In which case, of the decks seen so far, The wizards plan is just too inconsistent to be a buildaround. My question for grixis storm is what inalla has to do with the storm since tendrils is not really the win con for most decks. If grixis storm is really the best strategy for inalla, then why tier 1-2? try submitting a list and we'll see where the combo turn lies

October 24, 2017 6:27 p.m.

seems legit, I don't have enoogh expierience with Grixis Storm I just could not see an objective advantage ffor jevala, so I thought I'd ask.

yeah I meant Inalla, my bad. Again, your logic makes sense, but presumably it wouldn't be a "build around" deck, it would be a bonus that, unlike the other grixis commanders, doesn't require heavy mana investements.

I can try to throw a list together, though I'm not exactly the most qualified.

If you are right about Inalla being a poor storm choice (you probably are), should we be looking at combos? say... Dualcaster Mage + Ghostly Flicker? Obviously some people think she's got something going for her since she wasn't thrown in the Tier 3 "black hole."

I tried it, I think it's pretty fun making Inalla storm , Although it's a matter of finding the right wizards . The sad thing is not every wizard is that great :/ .

gdm1989 says... #22

Like clerics, wizards dont have that much support :(

October 24, 2017 9:52 p.m.

hadakou says... #23

yeah sadly . Btw ThrunTheTroll628 I have a list of Inalla storm if you want some idea on how to make it storm. I feel like I need a couple of cards but no idea which ones.

Does anyone have any ideas how to improve that Feldon list? I was planning on submitting it for tier 3 or something but I know its not 100% ready yet. Help would be GREATLY appreciated. No one seems to want to help brew Feldon cause they write it off as being mono R and therefore bad rofl. (Not that they are wrong, but yeah)

Sometimes even the underrated commanders can be effective I'll see what I can do later to try and help you out
