I really like the Fleshbag Marauder and Mimic Vat combo. Thats disgusting. I might have to playtest it at some point.

I'm on the fence about the Dominus of Fealty . Any thoughts?

Sedris, the Traitor King doesn't really fit in here. I don't run enough creatures for his effect to be useful
Boomerang is essentially a weaker version of Capsize . I'd rather be able to play the spell repeatedly, since mana for me is usually not a problem in EDH.
Frost Titan really seems like just a beat stick that doesn't add anything to the deck. If I'm paying 6 mana for a creature, I'd rather have it get some extra utility besides tapping down just one thing for a turn.

Sakashima the Impostor on the other hand serves great utility. At the very least it means another Thrax, which would be two sacrifices a turn, and two counters for both Thraximundars. If you want to be cruel, it could also mean two Sheoldred, Whispering One s.

deck:sakashima-the-imposter is really good. I hadn't thought about her to be honest. However, I'm not sure what I'd pull for it.

Thran Dynamo is a solid mana rock.
You may find it useful to play as many fetch lands as you can. 9 of them (Windswept Heath being the exception) actually do something for you. I run a BUG deck with 9 fetches, 3 shocks, and 3 duals and the land base tends to be extremely consistent because of it.

Thran Dynamo is an exceptional mana rock. Not sure what would be cut for it though. Usually I have no problem getting the mana rocks into play.
You are right though, running more fetches and duals definitely smoothed out the mana base when i play tested it. The only hesitation of putting them in the physical deck is cost. I can't really afford a $300 Underground Sea haha. Although more fetches is definitely doable

Loving the deck, mate. Just as an alternate win condition though.. Have you considered Sword of Feast and Famine ? If you equip it to Thraximundar with Aggravated Assault on the field you have infinite swings :)

Alrighty, my site just bugged and for an extremely odd reason the above two comments were posted without me being logged in..
I have been trying to say this though: Loving the deck, mate. Just as an alternate win condition though.. Have you considered Sword of Feast and Famine ? If you equip it to Thraximundar with Aggravated Assault on the field you have infinite swings :)

Thanks man i appreciate it. Thats actually a really good idea I hadn't thought of. I have an extra sword lying around, it would definitely be worth playtesting. Being able to untap is a huge plus when i'm in multiplayer. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll playtest it and see how it works out.
September 7, 2012 1:16 p.m.
No worries, man :)
The only other suggestion I can give is Command Tower . It's one that people often forget for EDH. Also, my apologies for the comment spam earlier, I have no idea what happened hahaha.

take out Crumbling Necropolis for Reflecting Pool and take out Murder for Dreadbore . At least I think those would be good replacements.

alexsmith21 says... #19
good idea bud. I really like Dreadbore a lot ha. The only thing nice about Murder is the speed. But replacing Crumbling Necropolis for Reflecting Pool would be much better.

wow I didn't realize Dreadbore was sorcery, damn.

Goblin War Drums Could Have A Lot Of Potential... Also Cruel Edict So You Can Put Counters On Thraximundar ... And Traumatize ...
September 10, 2012 4:07 p.m.
Epochalyptik says... #24
Not if it isn't relevant. Traumatize doesn't do anything for this deck, so dedicating a spot in the deck to it would be an unwise decision. You only have 99 cards in your deck; you need to make sure you that every one of them advances your goals.

Diabolic Edict has speed, card:Chainer's Edict has flashback, both things are utility that Cruel Edict doesn't offer besides being a sac spell.
i'm not sold on Goblin War Drums . I don't have too many creatures that I'm using to attack, most of them are supposed to be big menacing walls to deter attacks, like Phyrexian Obliterator or Keiga, the Tide Star . If i need Thrax to get though, I have ways of either clearing the field before he attacks, tapping/bouncing their stuff, or even tutoring up card:Shizo, Death's Storehouse to give him fear.
Epochalyptik already said what I would have said about Traumatize which is that it doesn't really make sense for this deck. You're right its a good card, but it doesn't do much more than piss off an opponent for a little bit and draw more hate than I'll already be getting from the playgroup. I appreciate the suggestions though

Since you do run Gravepact and token producing elements, card:Ashnod's Altar is great for keeping the field thinned out a bit. Fleshbag Marauder on a Mimic Vat can really piss people off as well.
