Marchesa, The Black Rose - Need Help to Make 1 Cut

Commander Deck Help forum

Ok, so I'm not going to lie... I've had this deck built for roughly 9 years straight at this point so the list is very optimized and cuts are TOUGH. Every Masochist Needs a Marchesa to Love Them is the list and Mahadi, Emporium Master is the card I'm looking to hopefully add.

The deck is set up for ETB/Death trigger abuse with aggro as a plan B. It usually wins by looping Gray Merchant of Asphodel with alternate sources of +1+1 counters and sac outlets so I can drain multiple times on every player's turn (including any of my clones entering/re-entering as Gary copies).

Maybe Yahenni? It’s a strong card, but you have a lot of ways to put a counter on creatures, and the value of having lots of counters on just him seems less-ideal? The deck seems to care more about the binary state of “has at least one counter” vs “doesn’t have at least one counter” rather than making huge creatures. Just spitballing....
