So I thought about this at work today, and I think you guys would be really happy to partake in this game.
Anyone familiar with the "Guy above you" forum games?
Well here's something of a little twist on the game.
Everyone who partakes is allowed to post 1 deck in each post. Then that person has to leave a comment, +1 or any combination of the two on the deck above them.
So, for instance, I'm going to post my deck, and the person who posts below me, has to leave some constructive criticism, why they like it, and/or a +1 on the deck page; and then that person posts their deck here for someone else to review.
So if you guys are game, I'll start.

(Please use the [deck-large:deckslug] tag when posting a deck, it's just neater and draws the eye better.) You can grab the slug from the deck URL just like when you tag your deck normally
Note: You can post more than once but don't go into a spree of posting one deck after another. No more than 3 decks please to keep it fun. Allow at least 5 comments before posting another deck.

MrXilas: I'll take a look! :)
I'm linking this deck again, because it's changed massively since the last time I posted it on this thread! I've cut it down to 100, toned down the ramp and Koma focus somewhat, and adjusted it to be more of a token-combo list! The central focus is still on Mystic Reflection combos, but there's also combos centered around Earthcraft , Glen Elendra Archmage , or Greater Good . It really feels like it's gaining a unique identity now, I'd love thoughts.

The deck packs some chaos, a dose of potency and tons of fun by marrying the partner commanders - Krark, the Thumbless and Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix !
Krark and Kydele is not a popular pairing with only 12 other decks on TappedOut and 20 decks on EDHREC as at 12/2/2021 but I absolutely love the chemistry between them!
Game Plan
Here's the deck's main game plan:
1) Summon Krark, the Thumbless and Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix . Their relatively low CMC makes it easier and being the underdogs make them less susceptible to removals/counterspells. For the value engine to kickstart, we only need Kydele on board but Krark just makes it more chaotic and fun!
2) Cast Draw/Wheel spells like Brainstorm , Windfall and Memory Jar to build up the number of cards drawn in a turn.
3) Tap Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix for Loads of Generic Mana . The deck offers many ways to Convert to colored mana via Cascading Cataracts , Chromatic Orrery , Prismite , etc.
4) Continue drawing and wheeling using the additional mana from #3.
5) Untap Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix using cheap Untap spells like Cerulean Wisps , Emerald Charm and Tidal Bore .
6) Copy the draw/wheel/untap spells using Krark, the Thumbless , Geistblast , Twincast , etc for extra value
7) Go to #2 and Repeat till we assemble our combos and wincons.

Krark and Kydele is not a popular pairing with only 13 other decks on TappedOut and 21 decks on EDHREC as at 25/2/2021 but I absolutely love the chemistry between them!
The deck mainly aims to draw lots of cards using cantrips and wheels, repeatedly untap Kydele to generate heaps of mana, generate extra value by copying the spells using Krark, and assemble our winning combo and storm off to victory!!
Looking forward to +1, suggestions and constructive comments. Thank you!

Here's another deck I want to build to have some usage in the competitive scene. It centers around Winota, Joiner of Forces and cheating out some powerful legendary/non-legendary humans onto the battlefield.
Here's the plan: Play cheaper, non-human creatures, attack with them when Winota is out, then play some beneficial humans that can buff creatures and do some other awesome stuff

Here is my first deck i‘ve ever build. When i started playing magic i started with a orzhov-human-ish legacy deck. But everyone played EDH, so i rebuild and collected every b/w card i gained during our draft-tournaments.
Lot of card-learning and buying some other cards later the
It took a long road and i am pretty proud of what it is right now. I would appreciate if you would take a look and leave a comment or a suggestion... or maybe even an upvote.

Hey all, I brew a very challenging edh deck built around the shuffle mechanic. Some of you know, investing a lot of time into a Deck can lead to a situation where you lose the overview. In this case, I probably forgot some weird and fun combos that you can probably suggest. An upvote would be also nice. :) Thx

Gravemared is an easy to use and easy to play mono-black Legacy deck meant to bounce between different strategies. When one strategy fails, another can easily be picked up or bounced back and forth between the different strategies. The main strategies include: Lifegain, Burn, Reanimate, 10+ poison counters from 1 attack, and extra draws. Let me know what you think!
Also, I'm not the same person I once was. I am actually open to constructive criticism and I will be kind, polite and I will accept your advice and opinions with welcome and open arms, unlike what I did with my Mullsobie deck, I promise.

I've got a new deck I'm testing today -- every card has to be a land or a creature. It's sort of an elf-ball deck, but with blink and combo elements that are laid out in the primer. I've had a LOT of fun playtesting it so far, check it out if you want an interesting new direction for your next Simic EDH deck!

Patty's Pretties: A Pauper Commander Deck
From My Reddit Post:
I've always wanted to do a Oops All Rats commander deck, but always found it to be a little bit tight on resources due to wanting to go three-color with it. I have wanted to make an Indulging Patrician PEDH deck ever since I saw it. Lifelink tribal felt a little cliche and felt too much like my Liesa deck, so I decided to combine these ideas instead.
The deck is pretty much wrapped up, but I have about six cuts I want to make. I'm trying to find room for Village Rites for draw, Spare from Evil for closing the game, Invoke the Divine for instant speed removal or a IP trigger if used on my turn, Raise the Draugr for recursion, Shields of Velis Vel to save my rats from Electrickery effects, and Angel of Dawn as another potential closer. Any thought on what should go? Anything from the other maybes I should put priority on?
