No 99 is the correct amount because i don't have Prossh as a creature. That makes 100.
Thank you though.

The system includes Prossh as one of the 99. If you don't believe me, count the number of cards not including Prossh. It's 98.

I checked and your right. Thank you... all my decks are missing a card on here. lol
I get to keep my Massacre Wurm now!! woooh!!

i actually had that card in this deck. I took it out because its only a one time use more than likely and it is a sorcery so i cant use it to its full potential. Greater good lets me keep sacking my general after i pump him for massive cards.

Rogue's Passage Can help solve a few problems with chump blockers where fear doesn't cut it. And if you wanted some flavor, Dragon Appeasement can be pretty fun, though it's more of a casual card.
Really though, this deck is awesome and extremely flavorful. +1

I actually had Rogue's Passage in here, and i still have the card. I just dont like that it is 4 mana. Most of the time people dont have a flyer on turn 6 when i can swing for lethal. ( without ramp, or sol ring )
Dragon Appeasement seems pretty silly. I like it though. It has nice flavor. If i see one i will pick it up and try it.
Thanks for the great suggestions. More are welcome!

Oh, I forgot to mention, if for some reason you haven't killed all opponents by turn 6, Mycoloth , Preyseizer Dragon , and even Thromok the Insatiable + Fling Can one-shot people, especially with Doubling Season out.
Thromok the Insatiable + the standard 6 Kobolds + Fling Is already 36 Damage.
Also, Elemental Mastery can be pretty crazy.
With good ramp, these things can happen incredibly fast. But generally speaking, it's a little slow.

Ive seen Mycoloth on alot of people's decks and i have been meaning to try it out but ive never gotten around to it. Preyseizer Dragon and Thromok the Insatiable are alittle lack luster without Fling . Because without it they are just big vanilla creatures... HUGE but other than that not much impact. Elemental Mastery is interesting but the only problem is it makes you tap Prossh if you have it on him. Most of the time prossh is my only creature. But i do like these suggestions. Makes me think about what i could take out for them and evaluate my deck. Thanks :)

No problem, I love Prossh, and I love arbitrarily large numbers on creatures so I tend to go a little out of hand with big monsters. I try a little too hard to make them work sometimes :p. Honestly your deck is really sweet as is, though I'm curious as to why you don't run Fireshrieker . Is it too slow?
September 19, 2014 12:35 p.m.
You know i was thinking about adding it. I want to put it in... i do.. its just that i dont think its worth 5 mana. Like Berserk is 1 mana, and that is a one shot kill. If i equip it and someone kills prossh i would have wasted so much mana for nothing.
But again. I would like adding it just to see.... the only problem is my conscience is telling me that its not worth it.
and I appreciate that you like my deck. I spend a large amount of time thinking about all my decks and strategizing. Making them at least alittle unique is another thing i shoot for.

That makes a lot of sense. Your Prossh deck is much, much faster than mine and easily more competitive for a multitude of reasons. To be honest, I've learned a lot just looking at your decklist. It's streamlined in so many ways for the greatest efficiency, and it's actually quite impressive. Probably one of if not the most focused and viable Prossh decks out there.
I've had to slow things down a lot since I play multiplayer, and one-shotting someone on turn 5-6 draws a lot of aggro. Prossh has seen the bottom of my library more than a few times since I did that :P. Good old Hinder saved just for me by our token control player.
Also, Ulvenwald Tracker and Champion of Lambholt have been surprisingly good to me.

Oh that happens to me too... But i just yell YOLO and take someone down with me! lol
Thank you for all the compliments. XD

Lol, that's about all you can do when it happens. By the way, Xenagos, The Reveler more than refunds the mana the same turn you play Prossh. His +1 gives you 7 red/green mana with just Prossh and his tokens. Imagine playing Prossh along with Inferno Titan , Dragon Broodmother , Avenger of Zendikar , or my personal favorite Mycoloth on the same turn. it's a huge tempo spike that can happen as early as turn 5.

Silence the Believers is just begging to be used in an EDH deck with 13+ mana lying around. Rogue's Passage is worth running in any commander deck but especially one that likes to win via commander damage. Also Assault Strobe can turn 6 eaten kobalds into a win. Parallel Lives (and depending on your playgroup Primal Vigor ) is great for getting enough tokens to kill with, not to mention Army of the Damned and Tempt with Vengeance . Also all of those tokens and doublers turn Burn at the Stake and Hellion Eruption into win conditions. When I still ran Purphoros (made it more combo cause I'd wait to drop him and Doubling Season at the same time or risk painting a target on my back) I realized how great he is with Hellion Eruption because I never hit enough devotion to it was automatically damage equal to twice the number of creatures I had out so EVERY opponent. And with one of the toke doublers out...
Also as a side note Liliana of the Dark Realms always did me some good, especially due to being largely ignored most games. So her -3 was unexpected removal and her -6 was reliably set off when I played her. Of course I run more X spells than you so that would be different

Silence the Believers looks like a great card to add. I will re - add the Rogue's Passage . I took it out before due to hitting colorless lands but i have enough ramp and lands now that it shouldn't matter. Assault Strobe is great due to its one mana, but it could be better if it was an instant. I still think i might give it a try though. Liliana of the Dark Realms looks fun. If i can pick one up then i will add it to the main board.
Parallel Lives and Primal Vigor are both just strictly worse Doubling Season . At first i did run both of these in the deck but it was too repetitive and slow. Tempt with Vengeance is a silly card, but my play group isnt stupid enough to let me get extra value out of it when my general flies. Burn at the Stake is quiet interesting. The possibility to deal 28 damage just from my general and 6 tokens is not bad at all. The only downside is, is that i already have one drop spells that kill as apposed to a 5 drop spell that has additional costs. Hellion Eruption is alittle lack luster in my opinion, its mana cost is too high for what it does. I mean it is situationally good. but I would rather not have situational cards in the deck.

Looks like a fun deck. Just as a heads up though, you only have 99 cards in it. So you have one card slot to fill.
