Notes: - This deck has been discontinued. It simply wasn't as fun or effective at its strategy as my related Gahiji, Honored One version. deck:https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/gahiji-the-rabblerouser/ - Marisi's lack of built-in evasion or defenses prevents him from being a good offensive creature. His 4 toughness makes him a mediocre defender. If his ability was on an Enchantment, it would be preferable. Casting him once feels fine, but paying extra for Commander tax for him feels underwhelming. He seems better in the 99 than as a Commander. - The goal of goading all three opponents every turn is very difficult in practice. Swinging out to goad everyone and failing to do so leaves us open for major crackbacks. - I'd rather spend all the slots in the 99 that go toward evasion on interaction or ramp.
