In which I do horrible things with Momir Vig and a whole bunch of 3-drops. It's been surprisingly degenerate for what's basically a pile of bulk rares and an Aluren. This actually started as a silly green-splashed wizard tribal deck, but things kind of got out of hand.

Things can go two ways here. One option is to ramp into Momir Vig, and then tutor for protection (Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir, Mysic Snake) and Cloudstone Curio as quickly as possible, then ultimately dropping Tidespout Tyrant and bouncing all of their shit. The other is to attempt the first, draw lots of hate (that strategy works much, much better in 1v1), then dump a bunch of efficiently-costed stuff onto the battlefield, pump it, and beatdown. There are also other, stupider options such as milling via Sage's Row Denizen or dealing commander damage with an untap engine (usually Aluren and Cloud of Faeries ), Okina, Temple to the Grandfathers, and Glaring Spotlight.

I realize that some of my choices (Triumph of the Hordes, Pygmy Hippo) are neither optimal nor combo-enablers, but I am strictly against single-win-con combo decks and have a penchant for goofy shit. Things I would love to have to improve this sucker are an Earthcraft, a Voidslime, and a Hinder.

This is a constant work in progress so I'll update it fairly regularly. If you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them.

March 8:After watching Teferi and Momir both repeatedly eat removal in the second game I played last week, I've decided to bite the bullet and toss in Archetype of Endurance. I've also included a Craterhoof Behemoth since my initial build. This is mostly because I acquired one in a trade and want to use it, but also because I wanted a momir-tutorable component for my beatdown win con, which is actually much more viable than I initially suspected.
