Not too shabby! Looks strikingly similar to mine (Rider of the Dawn), haha!

I definitely suggest adding, well, pretty much all of your maybebaord. Prison Term is much better than Arrest . Ancestral Mask , Bear Umbra , Battle Mastery , and Daybreak Coronet are pretty much musts in this type of deck.

Also, Winds of Rath is excellent here. Also, Serra's Sanctum .

Suggestions to remove: Khalni Heart Expedition , Mammoth Umbra , Prey Upon . There are some others that I personally would remove, but aren't necessarily bad. If you'd like to know why I suggest removing those, feel free to ask.

You might also look at using Kismet instead of Blind Obedience , but that's just personal preference I think.

Bottom line: +1 for a Krondbro.

Ooh one more thing! xD

Leyline of Sanctity might be better than Witchbane Orb .

@Fleetfiend -- thanks for the suggestions! haha yeah Alot of what you suggested I agree completely with. most of which I just need to get ahold of. I do like Leyline of Sanctity better I'll swich that out once i get one.

Just curious, what other cards would you suggest?

thanks for the suggestions

Beastmaster Ascension , Pollenbright Wings , and Indrik Umbra I'm not a big fan of. I try to avoid giving Shroud to Krond (unless it's with Lightning Greaves ), but people are always telling me to add Indrik Umbra and Greater Auramancy , but Shroud would prevent me from putting more enchantments on Krond. However, I do see the benefit of it; sometimes you don't really NEED more enchantments, haha.

I prefer Green Sun's Zenith over Summoner's Pact , but that's another preference thing.

Your creature base looks good. Those are the only other suggestions that jump out at me.

@Fleetfiend - yeah I was really at a debate between Pollenbright Wings and Indrik Umbra because of their casting cost but i worked around it. but I'm still testing of course. Thats why I put in Khalni Heart Expedition in the first place to help with the ramp and the color specificity of Krond. I originally had Green Sun's Zenith in the build but it got phased out.

Krond is definitely a Commander that could use a lot of landseeking; that's one thing I forgot to mention. Cultivate and Kodama's Reach are yummy.

I'm liking it! Enchanted Evening would give some of your creatures quite the boost... Throw Sterling Grove in there too for a little extra protection, and your good. If you really feel like being a jerk, get Aura Thief when you have enchanted evening out. I love that combo.

Gladecover scout would work great in here!

September 5, 2013 12:56 p.m.

RobSchneider - it would but for size and what it could achive I feel like its a maybe at best. thanks for the comment!

September 5, 2013 6:26 p.m.

I like Spire Tracer over Silhana Ledgewalker same ability for one less mana. Then again, you are sacrificing Hexproof...

+1 because your deck's name made me chuckle. I run almost the exact same deck except not commander, think about Sterling Grove , Predatory Urge , Dowsing Shaman , Lignify , Indrik Umbra , and Krosan Verge

November 12, 2013 1:39 a.m.

@sonnet666 I originally had Predatory Urge , and Indrik Umbra in the build but I phased them out because of the cost. ill think out Sterling Grove and I will put in Krosan Verge thanks man

Trollhide is cheap and very effective

Spellwild Ouphe might be a nice addition.

February 16, 2014 11:37 p.m.

@hallowdog-- not a bad idea. I might consider that.

Can Blind Obedience be in your deck? There is a black mana symbol in the text and your commander is white/green. But I don't know enough of the edh rules to know for sure.

December 3, 2014 6:07 p.m.

@tomdiedom yes it can. the hybrid symbol is in the reminder text so it is not counted towords the commander's color identity
