To evncrbch,

A majority of my meta plays three color decks without/with very little red. So even though I am limiting myself, I'm hurting my opponents much more. There are some times when it just completely shuts down my opponent because they are running no basics. I do agree with you to an extent. There are sometimes that Blood Moon is just terrible. If there is a lot of mono-colored or dual color commanders, then take out Blood Moon asap. It's meta-dependent, honestly.

Just play Storm!

Even though you don't want to run a combo deck, I feel like missing out on cards that synergize really well with narset like Strionic Resonator and Long-Term Plans can ultimately hold you back. I'm sure these have been brought up at some point before.

I also have a personal hard on for Boros Charm in these decks since it protects me against my own creature/land wipes or opponent board wipes at instant speed if I have it in hand.

Narset - America F**K YA! is a Narset deck I've made about a year ago and updated again recently. It seems to work fairly well.

Wow, your deck's description layout is actually beautiful.

So I have a friend that mostly runs commanders with ETB effects, so torpor orb is extremely oppressive and basically sucks the fun from him due to the fact that he can't do anything. Is there another artifact you would suggest putting in place of it instead?

First, I would like to thank everyone for stopping by and leaving the comments. They are great appreciated.

To mtgirem,

I'm rather iffy on Strionic Resonator. It feels like a win more card, but could be a justifiable inclusion. Same with Long-Term Plans. However, Long-Term Plans has more application when Narset isn't on the field. My general evaluation of cards hinge on their viability when Narset isn't in play. I'll have to play around with the build and see what I think. Both of these are great suggestions. I'm not sold on Boros Charm though. I rather it just be a counterspell in most situations.

To Askani28,

Thank you very much!

To carpeomniaurum,

First, I would suggest that your friend should run removal rather than you not run Torpor Orb. Things like Vandalblast, Beast Within, Wear / Tear, Return to Dust, and Aura of Silence. Every color, except black, has multiple answers to artifacts. Much of this deck is all about stax'ing the battlefield. Between that, the land control, and the free spells, your friend isn't gonna have a great time anyways if you're in the driver seat. Understandably though, there are replacements for Torpor Orb. As suggested by mtgirem, Strionic Resonator is a great replacement. More artifact ramp or Vedalken Orreryare also viable replacements. Expedition Map is also very good so that you can fetch Cavern of Souls or Hall of the Bandit Lord. I hope this helps.

Strionic Resonator with Rings of Brighthearth. If you pay 6 mana, you get to copy a planeswalker ability multiple times without them lossing extro loyalty.

So shocked to see my deck being brought up in the description! Thanks for the compliment!

To markszncd,

Not a problem! Your build of Narset is one of the best, in my opinion.

Medomai the Ageless would be a great card for this deck, especially with Aurelia, the Warleader. Three turns in a row and six attack phases hits Narset's ability for 24 cards. Definitely a +1 from me.

Fun deck! Great presentation!

Rather than the Medomai I suggested earlier, Brago, King Eternal gives infinite attack phases the pared with Aurelia, the Warleader.

People who become easily mired in the extra attack phase vs extra turn debate would do well to factor in other players. I can say firsthand playing narset of the infinite turns is boring for the person playing and other people will just flat out refuse to play. I don't need to untap. I bolow up all lands as often as possible with narset because once she's out I don't care. I don't need to draw a card because I can play it for free. Extra attack phases don't require you to cast your free cards until you're done swinging. You can then look your opponent in the eye and say 'hey, want me to start casting this big pile of spells, or are we good?" this is quicker and more satisfying than durdling around taking seven extra turns back to back. I used yu run narset with 5 copy spells and 7 turn spells. Oh yeah she won every game but it took me taking a twenty minute turn in which my friends went and made a cup of coffee. Not saying that's how your deck runs, just referring to this debate in general . I respectfully disagree that time spells are better than attack phases FOR A NARSET DECK

To erendil,

Extra attack steps are fine and if you prefer them, that's cool. However, extra attack steps only matter when you're swinging with Narset. Let's be realistic here. If you're swinging with Narset, then you are probably gonna win the game or just be super far ahead. My problem with extra attack steps is two things: Narset has to be on the field and Narset has to swing unimpeded. The folks that I'm playing with know that a Narset deck NEEDS her to swing and play a ton of counter spells. If she never hits the field or never swings, then I'm not too much of a threat. Thus, why I prefer time warps because they are valuable whether or not Narset is on the field. Extra attack speeds reinforces the victory after Narset swings. I prefer to reinforce my chances of winning when Narset isn't on the field.

Is there any particular reason you don't run Grim Monolith over Mana Vault? It's a slightly better version and can be untapped at any time.

To carpeomniaurum,

Oh, that's easy. That's because I don't have Grim Monolith. I could purchase one, but I've been giving too much love to my other EDH decks at the moment. Also, I want to keep this deck unproxied.

Also, how do you feel about Pact of Negation?

To carpeomniaurum,

I think Pact of Negation is better than Muddle the Mixture 90% of the time. The other 10% is when I blow up lands, time warp, and ,for whatever reason, don't have mana rocks on the field. As a matter of fact, I've been rather disappointed in Muddle.

I find Mass Calcify to be fairly good in Narset. It doesn't hit narset, and wipes away most of the board, leaving behind a couple creatures with 1 opponent. Unless your playgroup loves white, it's fairly often better than hittin wrath of god with narset and having to recast her.

Also I find Smoke to be great, since we only have 1 creature that needs to untap. (Aurelia has vigilance and if generator servant's still out when you haven't played narset yet)

Interesting deck! I just made a budget version of this deck and it may have some cards in it that could be good for your deck!

Also some recommendations- some extra combat phase cards like World at War or Relentless Assault

Also a card that is completely broken in a deck like this Mind's Desire one time I cast it for storm count 8 and it was amazing

Omniscience is also a good add for this deck!

A planeswalker I would add is Ral Zarek because of you manage to ultimate it is awesome and his other abilities are helpful!

Here is the link to my deck check it out- Narset is too much fun

+1!

I also play a non-combo Narset deck; Aura-merica. I'd love your thoughts on it!

Hey great work !!! any update lately with the new sets?

Wow you have made big changes !!! Some are surprising , could you explain?
