Introduction

Squee the Daylight Out of Everyone is an EDH deck built to take advantage of discard and sacrifice outlets in order to generate massive card advantage. It utilizes removal, card draw and ramp in order to land a massive bomb that will take over the game.

I'm not done with the primer yet, but I would love suggestions! :)

Primer

This section talks about the deck as a whole, as well as each card in the deck.

Overview: Show

Archtype: Control Show

This deck is a control deck, or a deck designed to protect itself throughout the long game while generating as much card advantage as possible. As such, this deck's goal is to stay alive as long as possible while killing everything.

Why ? Show

For this deck, I wanted a non- blue control deck, as well as it to be on a budget. There are still probably better choices, but red seemed intriguing as a color to work with.

Why Squee? Show

As I had picked my color, I started looking through the choices for a commander. I looked at Norin the Wary as a wacky way to generate card advantage through cards like Pandemonium . Then, I saw Squee.

Simply put, Squee, Goblin Nabob is the most efficient phoenix ever printed. Because of his ability to recur himself every turn for free, I realized that you could create an absurd amount of card advantage by discarding/ sacrificing him every turn.

Card Choices: Show

Phoenixes Show

Phoenixes are needed to give the deck redundancy in ways to discard as well as ways to sacrifice creatures.

Firewing Phoenix - You can return this at any time for only four mana, making this an ideal choice for recursion. Plus, it is a good blocker.

Magma Phoenix- Even though this is the most expensive phoenix to use in the whole deck, the fact that it can be used as a repeatable board wipe makes this a good choice for the deck.

Shard Phoenix - A less expensive Magma Phoenix (in terms of recursion) that does less damage and can only be returned during your upkeep.

Skarrgan Firebird - Likely the worst phoenix in the deck, as it costs to recur and only works if someone has taken damage this turn. It's very narrow, and the one I'd switch for a better phoenix given the chance.

Discard Effects Show

These effects help abuse Squee, but also are better to use with phoenixes.

Anvil of Bogardan - A card advantage machine in this deck, it will help filter through the deck to find what you are looking for. In my opinion, this is an absolute must.

Arc Mage - Twin Bolt every turn might not be the most impressive in commander, but this excels against token decks and decks with lots of one/two-toughness creatures.

Chandra Ablaze - I just thought that this was a cool discard card. It might just be the Timmy in me, but all three abilities are powerful in my deck. The +1 perfectly captures the essence of the deck, the -2 generate absurd card advantage for my deck, and the ultimate is absurd late in the game.

Faithless Looting- A 1- mana cantrip that generates card advantage and can be reused is a must- have in this deck.

Grimoire of the Dead- This is a great card. It does't represent card disadvantage in this deck, and with all the fatties in your opponent's decks, it's sure to be a giant blowout for everyone (provided they don't have removal). Plus, it's fun!

Hammer Mage - This could be the most powerful card in this deck. It is a repeatable board wipe for artifacts, and can single- handedly shut down deck. Just be careful not to blow up all of your artifacts!

Jaya Ballard, Task Mage- I take it back. This is the most powerful card in the deck. The flexibility it provides is insane, being able to shoot down blue permanents, low- toughness creatures and the whole board (except for your bombs). A must- include, and not one that will ever be cut.

Mad Prophet - This is the best looter in red, and this deck loves loot effects. Haste only helps, but drawing a card every turn is very good.

Rummaging Goblin- Again, loot effects are extremely strong in this deck, especially ones that can be used every turn. This fits that bill, albeit on a small body.

Seismic Mage - From a casual sense, this card is great at blowing up unfair cards like Cabal Coffers and Dust Bowl. From an evil sense, land destruction is insane in a format where everyone is ramping.

Shivan Harvest - Even though this requires you to sacrifice a creature and can't blow up basic lands, it comes with a cheaper cost and is a more evasive card (thanks to enchantment type). A solid card.

Tormenting Voice/ Wild Guess - First off, they are the same card. Secondly, 2 mana Divinations are very good cards, especially in a format where card advantage is king.

Trading Post- A very cool card, as it is a discard and a sacrifice outlet. Discarding a card to gain 4 life can be a life-saver, but isn't usually relevant. However, it can be useful as a way to use a discard. Paying one life to put a 0/1 goat is great, and will usually save me life in the long run. Sacrificing a creature to recur an artifact is an ability that won't be used often, but will be very good when used. Finally, sacrificing an artifact to draw a card can always be used as a last- ditch effort to save yourself. All that combined shows just how versatile of a card this can be.

Sacrifice Effects Show

- Fiery Conclusion

Bombs Show

- Inferno Titan

Mana Ramp Show

Removal Show

Aftershock - The second most flexible removal spell you can find in red at the negligible cost of life.

Avacyn's Judgment - An instant speed, cheaper rolling thunder is really good.

Blasphemous Act- The most powerful, yet fair red board wipe in the game. A red deck staple.

Blood Rites - It may be horrible removal, but it goes to the face and is repeatable.

Chaos Warp- Another red deck staple, as it gets rid of any non-land permanent.

Fiery Confluence- A flexible board wipe/artifact removal spell.

Goblin Grenade- 1 mana for 5 damage is overpowered, especially when it can hit the face.

Knollspine Invocation- Even though it is expensive, it is repeatable removal that can be used multiple times a turn. Plus, it can be used to close out games quickly.

Lightning Axe- An efficient, solid removal spell that discards a card. Not much else to say here.

Nevinyrral's Disk- Enchantment removal that also happens to wipe the board.

Perilous Vault- Enchantment removal that also happens to wipe the board. :P

Reckless Abandon- A goblin grenade that can also sacrifice a phoenix.

Vandalblast- The best artifact wipe in red, as it can also kill just one artifact.

Potential Considerations Show

This section talks about any cards that may go in the deck should I find that they are better than other cards I have. Your suggestions go here.

Punishing Fire - Depending on the meta, it is a phoenix effect that is more efficient then any of my other phoenixes. Since I don't play against too much lifegain, I have chose not to include it, but if I play against tons of lifegain, you can be sure that I'll include it.

Genesis Chamber- This is an artifact that lets me double up on all of the sacrifice outlets. Unfortunately, it also works for opponents, making it a lot less desirable.

Sets

This section focuses on each individual set released from this point on and what they bring to my deck.

Shadows Over Innistrad: Show

Since this set is based around madness and discard spells, there surely must be a card that will fit into the deck... Right?

Avacyn's Judgment - Probably the best madness card in the set (besides maybe firey temper ), this card is a twin bolt at worst, and an instant- speed rolling thunder at best. That is absurd, especially with all the mana I'll be making.

Insolent Neonate- A discard outlet, yet still card disadvantage with a phoenix makes this bad.

Ravenous Bloodseeker- As a repeatable discard outlet, it's at least worth considering. However, a beater is not that good in this deck, so this isn't a card I would like to put in.

Wolf of Devil's Breach- This may be the worst mythic in the set, but this is the best (mono-red) discard outlet in the set by a lot. Repeatable removal is very good, especially when you can afford to repeat every turn. I honestly think this is better then some of my finishers.

Changes:

Avacyn's Judgment replaces Fiery Conclusion .

Wolf of Devil's Breach replaces Inferno Titan .
