Pact of Negation can't be in this EDH deck, it's a blue card by color indicator, and thus has a blue color identity, whereas your commander has a black color identity. Other than that, this is funny as all hell.

quaker171 oh yea, was thinking mana cost :P derpdy derpdy derp. thanks though.

Crypt Ghast should be in here. Does Shadowborn Apostle reallyoverride the singleton rule?Love the idea, +1

Pupp3tMast3r i did consider Crypt Ghast but i just dont need it, i only have a few searches and it just turns into an extra chance the combo fizzles. But thanks!

woudnt this be mroe reliable if you only ran Maralen of the Mornsong , Thrumming Stone , Elixir of Immortality , Tendrils of Agony then the Shadowborn Apostle's i dont see the need for Rune-Scarred Demon or Sol Ring

BIGBADBRRRAP well, i tutor for sol ring turn 4 with maralen, it just speeds the deck up by one turn and isnt in the deck when i combo off, rune scarred just gives me insurance in case i dont get a chance to find a tendrils. it means i can just sac some dudes and use it to find tendrils.

You don't have to search for Crypt Ghast , it's just a nasty card for in case you can't combo off. and it just so happens to come to you in your opening hand.

"I play three Shadowborn Apostles and pay 6 mana... Y'all take 3 and I gain life so you can't kill me. Pass turn."

Pupp3tMast3r hmm, good idea, ill definitely think about that!

Maybe drop some Apostles for 1 cmc hand disruption that would still work with Storm. If people are gunning for your commander since they know what you want to do, Pontiff of Blight would be a retarded win condition that could be more easily set up than your combo that requires a lot of pieces. Necropotence is another potential card to be considered, since it gets around your commander's prevention of drawing, but if you just want to stick strictly with your combo, your current list would be difficult to improve.

Yea, ik the deck could have better win cons and stuff but... STORM! IN EDH! HAAAEEEEELLLLLL YYYEEEEEAAAAA! And i wont have enough mana to take advantage of Pontiff of Blight . As for Necropotence , yea it lets me draw, but i really dont need the drawing as i really only need my Thrumming Stone to combo off.

I drew the most beautiful opening hand of all time. 3 Swamp, Stone, Tendrils, and 2 Apostle. Topdecks were Apostles. I fetched a Rune Scarred Demon to fetch a 5th Swamp. Then I won.

Niiiice brah, thats what happens when the deck works :P

Korlash, Heir to Blackblade as commander for less threat?

strongrad ty for the suggestion, but i need the tutoring from Maralen of the Mornsong for the deck to actually work.

Dark Ritual Culling the Weak because 3 or more black mana turn one can be fun :3

Forbidden Ritual can be a back-up win condition.

AcidBrn hmm, thats a pretty good idea! I think ill put that in.

Boseiju, Who Shelters All would be a good idea to get Forbidden Ritual or Tendrils of Agony to go off without being countered, and you could tutor for it with your commander

! i completely for got about that! thanks!

Boseiju, Who Shelters All isn't really necessary, since with storm the spell is copied, so a counterspell would only counter one copy of the spell. It's fine if you have it, but it's only protecting one copy.

hm, i guess thats true. Buuuuut, for whatever reason i love the card ;)

It's a great card. If you have it, it never hurts to add it to just about any deck. But with storm, counterspells aren't a huge threat.

Ob Nixilis, Unshackled and Maralen of the Mornsong for some lulz

yea lol, was thinking about making a deck that does that :P

It's hard to explain in words how stupid this is
