Oloro EDH needs help with refining

Deck Help forum

Posted on Dec. 20, 2013, 5:08 a.m. by MR H3AT

So I found the Esper EDH deck at Target for $30 and said, "why not?" and bought it for myself for xmas. I have never built or played commander but this one looked like fun and I had a few things to supplement it. My issue is that there is just too much that would be fun to use and I am currently over the limit by 20. If anybody has and suggestions for what to cut and why it would be super helpful. I just really need to find out what really isn't needed in here or what will just end up being underwhelming. Of course if I had any of the expensive EDH staples they would certainly be in here and I don't really want to drop that much cash on this just yet but any suggestions on what I am missing under a $25 limit would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hey, i've actually gone through and taken a look at really good cards for this deck myself, here's a few reccomendations!

Exquisite Blood - Once Oloro hits the field, this becomes a bit of a nightmare for your opponents to be honest.

Planar Cleansing - More control

Condemn - good spot removal for a low price

Oblivion Ring more good spot removal, since this is a controlly deck

AEtherling almost impossible to remove, good staple card to have in there

Obzedat, Ghost Council - More pricey, but it combos with the lifegain aspect to this deck quite well

Trinket Mage - bring out that sol ring, plus an early body for the field

Deadeye Navigator

These cards are ones i have in my Eternal Bargain EDH deck and i think they're good additions. Also note the Sanguine Bond // Exquisite Blood combo this would add to your deck

Have fun!

Thanks for the advice! I don't know how Exquisite Blood missed the list. It is in the deck right now but I just forgot to add it to the list on here. I will consider the other cards and playtest them a bit to find what works best for my playstyle. =)
