I've been wanting to try Thromok goblins. Think it be kind of cool being able to go wide and overwhelm with an army of goblins or switch it up and devour the goblins for a single massive swing when needed. Devour x looks like it would get out of hand fast with enough goblins.

There's a few Thromok decks at my LGS and they all play exactly the same: Devour a bunch of creatures -> Fling/Chandra's Ignition. It's a cool idea at first, but man it just seems so boringly linear

Fair. Thromok does seem the kind that lends itself to similar enders and play styles. It's designed to do the one thing. More than most. Part of why I thought maybe goblins would be decent. You could do the goblin tribal stuff or throw the worm when needed. But you'll probably end up leaning more towards one or the other as the deck gets refined.

Looking good so far. Though I'll admit I think mass hysteria may be a bit too risky. Giving decks that don't normally have haste haste can give your opponents uniquely situated advantages.

You got the right idea, I would maybe cut goblinslide for a virtue of strength. You're running a lot of big x spells and want to cast them for big value. If you're new to deck building in commander I would say the top 3 things to consider when brewing are
>"what's the bare minimum this deck should be able to do 90% of games?"
>"how do I want to accomplish that?"
>"how can account for having two extra opponents?"

You are in red so maybe some of the cheaper discard one draw two spells? Maybe also the ones that give treasures too for future turns. And something like a Sun Titan could do well to bring back both creatures and other permanents that are in curve later in the game. You want to be attacking so the attack trigger would be useful too.

I don't think tokens are a very good strategy for Neriv. Not really sneak attack tribal when most of your creatures aren't even worth sneak attacking in. I was actually working on a Neriv deck myself going a completely different route running Lightning Skelemental, Blistering Firecat and some other Ball Lightning type creatures. My thought was I want to make the absolute most I can out of the double damage so I'm forgoing tokens entirely. As far as more thoughts on your deck I think Whip is a bad card, Pandemonium will bit you in the ass and I really think you're going on two directions with tokens stuff AND nontoken sneak attack threats. Pick one. Also more ramp and as always run Liquimetal Torque and Abrade/Shenanigans etc.

Initial, unsorted thoughts:
The main issue I'm seeing with this deck is that there's a very large number of "win more" cards like Zopandrel and Twinflame Tyrant. Your commander is already a doubler that's hard to remove so you should be looking for more big bodies to put down instead of things that make already big bodies larger. That will in-turn likely cascade (har har) outward to improving your green draw options to be online more consistently.
Also I feel you're overcounting your draw options by including MDFCs. Disciple of Freyalise for example is genuinely awful on its front side being 6 mana sorcery speed Momentous Fall, and just the draw is worth 2 mana with Life's Legacy. If you're playing OneBigBody.dek you have a very large assortment of draw options available that I'd recommend like Soul's Majesty, or Return of the Wildspeaker.
As a rule of thumb I'd only run 3-4 finisher/doubler-type cards at most because they're only good when you have advantage and are looking to close the game (at which point you should ideally have enough card advantage to find them fairly consistently).
Your ramp package is a bit underwhelming. You could probably invest a bit more in "play extra land" type cards such as Exploration or Sakura-Tribe Scout to both assist you in ramp for the whole game, and get excess lands out of your hand after an explosive draw turn. You're in green so there's no shortage of 1-drop ramp options.

If you like mobilize lean into it more and ditch the ball lightning/sneak attack stuff. Impact Tremors and the two BLB and MKM versions they printed. That also offers more synergy with ETB and blink stuff.
Heres the first draft I made of mine. The physical version is a bit different and again it forgoes mobilize. I wish Siegebreaker was legendary.

Depends how he's comboing off. The answer 99.9% of the time is "instant speed removal and stop tapping out every turn like a moron." If you give me a bit more to work with than "grixis" I can give you some more directed advice.

It's definitely fun but pretty fragile. Feldon is an obvious MVP combined with Fury or Skelemental Hungry for More is an interesting card I was considering, I cut Anathemancer but could see it putting in work. Callous Sell-Sword is another including I'm considering as a sneaky Fling like spell that actually works with Neriv. My group is pretty low power and I'm always trying to get them to play faster so we can get more games in a d this felt like a good fit for that. Plus I had a foil firecat from childhood wasting away in a binder.

Well as of late heβs been running kefka and stacking treasures to wheel us 7 times in one big combo turn. But what he was initially known for was VivΓ.
Heβs running Vivi and as a result uses spells like [[Big Score]] and [[Unexpected Windfall]] to generate treasures to cast multiple spells a turn and turn that into mana from ViViβs ability so he can cast more spells to boost viviβs power and ping us

This is likely a large part of why you're clogging. My monoG stompy deck has 4 total dedicated finishers and two of them can be played without a body (the other two are Excalibur and Skullspore Nexus, which cost very little mana). Another comparison I'd use is Dragonborn Champion. Your commander doesn't really ask you to swing with a lot of bodies, but rather, one really big one. That lends itself more to cards like Hunter's Prowess or Hunter's Insight.

You can do it four times per turn cycle, you gotta build him as a control land pass style commander. You cast a counterspell on enemy turn and you get a free 3/3 with it, hold up mana to cast stuff like treasure cruise and you can just keep passing the turn with interaction while actively adding to your board. He does commit suicide at an alarming rate though, gotta counteract the life loss

It's a weird choice of deck to put a chains in and the power incongruity of your decks is always baffling.

I use chains as a strange Narset-like stax piece where anyone wanting to do lots of drawing never really goes positive (including as a discard outlet for myself) but
>>95989240
is pretty much correct. I don't have any deck where it is at its maximum value, so I just try to put it in places where I can potentially benefit from it somewhat or just use it to inconvenience others because it's cool as fuck to drop it on the table.
>power incongruity
You know, I completely understand where you're coming from. A lot of the time I put cards in that are good, but then when I'm trying to do a "thing", I try to put in cards that feel flavorful for that on the side, like Swallowed by Leviathan since it's a surveil + counterspell in one in a deck that wants to vomit half of itself into the graveyard, Unshakable Tail so that surveiling turns into a cyclical event if I keep hitting creatures, Enhanced Surveillance in general, etc. Another example is I run Otawara and Takenuma and I've never channeled them once, I've also never sacrificed Inventors' Fair for the tutor before either lmao

Looking at Scryfall for Dimir commander legal Repeatable token generators that are also discard outlets. The only ones that are relevant are like
>Currency Converter
Only in the case of when I discard and then exile lands and put them back into my graveyard, so not particularly useful here
>Leonardo da Vinci
Exiles stuff I discard with his ability to make thopter copies of them, different decks want this
>Mirrodin Besieged
Only does draw/discard on the second mode and token generation on the first mode. I may actually put this in since I tend to surveil half of my deck into the graveyard anyway.
>Transmutation Font (because it makes blood tokens I guess?)
5 drop that makes 1 token per turn and can tutor, but generally feels overcosted for the effect for me. I'd be better off running Kuldotha Forgemaster in this deck.
Then if you look at Dimir Blood Token generators, the only useable ones would be like...
>Siphon Essence
>Vampire's Kiss
>Pointed Discussion
So there really aren't a lot of other options here but
>>95989370 is right, I like to giggle about the reactions to the card and it's a cool expensive old card I like to show off.

Ceremonial Knife requires combat damage, which is feasible but extremely slow. Kamber and Eulogist aren't artifact creatures, which isn't like a no-sell point or anything but also require me to consistently remove opposing creatures or face sacrifice/removal heavy decks. If anything they incentivize removing them and not removing anything else since I benefit from it. The only real direct creature removal I have are Armix, Walking Ballista (which come on I'm not using that to kill creatures lmao), Toxic Deluge, and Withering Torment. Honestly, I probably should have more repeatable removal, this deck sorta folds to high aggro big boy green timmy decks. I nearly got smashed by a Renata last week at my LGS, but Gitrog ended up combing off first.

Mono-Red decks are the only decks that should be using Blood Moon aside from maybe Rakdos/Izzet if they use enough basics. The whole point is to fuck up nonbasics, especially some of the extremely powerful ones like Ancient Tomb, Dust Bowl, Glacial Chasm, Nykthos, Gaea's Cradle, etc. There are tons of basics even in mono-color that are stronger than your average basic land.

Of course I would, it's a neat idea and something memorable to bring to the table (in both ways).
I'm sure you can come up with some solid enough cookies if you feel that gingerbread is too festive to use the rest of the year. But on the other hand, it'd be nifty and uncommon to eat them outside of the holiday season, enough to make it novel. (Though if you play it often, you'd probably want to have some ways to mix things up.)
Would the cookie handle such a complicated stamp and have the text come out cleanly? Also, shouldn't the text on the stamp be backwards since it's stamping down on the cookie and wanting to leave the text forwards on it?

I get a lot of people rage quitting bracket 2 games after I play One with the multiverse, and blatant thievery. Would you say they're game changers?

I don't really cheat it out but I run quite a few cost reducers so I've been known to get it out T6
I still don't think it's a game changer at 6 cmc mostly because sometimes it works great, other times it's a dud and I'm stuck staring at lands. I guess I was just wondering because I've never had a specific card cause so many people to RQ.

Anything that puts in non-basic lands should be b4, including fetches. Lands that produce two or more colors and can come in untapped should be 4. Dual or more lands that always come in tapped should be b3.
A big part of why this game is so fucking fast now is because dinks can run 3+ color slop piles with little issue due to how many fucking lands there are that effortlessly color fix, even if some of them come in tapped. Choosing to make decks with 3 or more colors should be a hard choice and come with some sort of trade off. Most mono/dual decks are not significantly faster than a 3 color to offset having less answers and strategies. Push 3+ color Commanders with greedy mana bases into B4 and a lot of problem decks instantly disappear from casual tables.

Sorry I think I misunderstood your question. If you play Sephiroth while Sibsig Ceremony is already out and sacrifice a creature with his ETB trigger for the 4th kill to transform him while the Sibsig Ceremony trigger is on the stack he will still die. You do still get a sweet emblem as compensation.

Clive. His so fun and busted, just trust me.
Play fast. Play him on curve, discard 0-2 card hand for a new full hand.
Be aggressive on board.
Pay mana cost to flip him into a 9/9 that fights someone. Then saga chapter 2/3 gives you 4 red mana each.
Flip him back over, redraw a new hand. Repeat.
You go very aggressive in this deck and you have fast mana and cards all the time.

You just drew a fuckton of cards. Chances are you can ramp, play another threat and then recast him. He already solves the biggest issue with red decks by drawing you a good amount of cards.

Do you have a list? I'm just kind of at a loss for what the rest of the deck is supposed to be doing
I just realised that I have never gotten the sol ring to arcane signet start and the only possible explanation it's so frequent with everone else is that they don't shuffle well enough after slamming their board back to deck when starting a new game

getting those 2 specific cards in your starter is less than half a percent chance. I would understand getting one which is 13% from 7 cards drawn but I see both in way more games than 1 in 200 (except on my side). people are not shuffling enough and I need to find a way to subtly tell make people not put their manarocks next to each other when "shuffling" them back. cutting doesn't fix this either unless I reshuffle and that just seems too tryhard

Commander players run 35 lands, then their group lets them mulligan until they get a playable hand, which often means ring/crypt and a signet.

I'm talking about irl games and never in my life have I seen people give more than 1 free mull.
only once did I see a dude try do multiple free mulls pre-game while waiting for us to finish thinking no-one would notice but I promptly asked which 3 he was going to keep and people peer pressured him to keep a small hand

What are some good ways to get life back in a G'raha deck? The deck is super fun but you can very very quickly deplete all your life due to how he works.

While not tutoring directly, scroll rack gets you going through a deck. Although you do waste a bit of mana. Other than that itβs gamble, if youβre desperate planar bridge.
I hate ramp so god damn much. Nothing makes me seethe more than waste my first 3 turns on playing spells just to ramp.
Whats a commander which allows me to play zero ramp spells?

the "rules" of brackets are too loose to be formats. "Few" tutors is too vague. And are all tutors on the same level? Behold the Beyond is just as good as Vampiric Tutor? Steelshaper's Gift as good as Enlightened Tutor? And just what is a "late game" infinite combo? What is considered late game? If it has a combo that can go off early but you don't have tutors or a lot of card draw, is your deck now a lower bracket?

>>95993019
This is an issue with the game overall.
Why play expensive(cmc) cards if they can get removed by a one CMC spell? It should cost my opponent more to remove it.
Ward fixes this problem but people bitch about ward and sometimes WOTC puts ward on creatures that really don't need it, while ignoring the ones that do.
For me, if any commander has CMC over 4 it has to have some sort of built in protection or recursion for me to run it, with very few compromises
I feel like if Commander was designed from the ground up they would either give everything ward or somehow fix the fact that your 6+ CMC commander can be path to exiled for 1 CMC

This was my experience playing melek(from dragons maze).
It got removed 3 times and I never got to use his ability because he never survived a round

You can play a 5 mana commander, it just has to be a nice goodstuff top-end. If you try to build around your 5 mana commander, you're going to have a miserable time. Have played Sen Triplets forever and the problem I see with other Sen Triplets decks is running garbage like Paradox Haze that only does anything if they stick around instead of running on-board protection and other must-answer threats.
Think people who started playing after the tuck rule change never build decks like this.

My question is, why the fuck is everyone instantly remove the 6 drop? Are you in a playgroup where everyone instantly removes commanders the second they get played, no matter what? Does EVERYONE play white in your playgroup? Does no one save removal until it's absolutely necessary? I just don't get the mind set. Like, I absolutely don't use my removal until last second, so more often then not, people's commanders get played around me. I just don't get it. What's even the point of commander if all you're doing is removing and getting your commander removed. Might as well play Canadian Highlander.

I can only speak of my friends: They're fucking retarded. If I see a huge beater hit the table my first reaction is "hell yeah hit my opponents" and *only* if it attacks me will I remove it if I can't stall with chump blockers. My friends though? The literal second after it resolves they want to cast removal. Doesn't matter if it's not attacking them, they're scared retards that think big creatures should never be allowed to exist. And yes, our games tend to take like 2 motherfucking hours because they never let the game advance

This. If I sat around doing jack shit for 5 turns my pod will not just remove my commander unless it is some absurd KOS tier commander that cannot be allowed to get to their next turn.Why waste removal when I am behind and not doing shit yet? Usually someone else has a full board and threats by then. The only real risk is a board wipe or edict IMO. But then you should be using your brain to figure out WHEN that may happen and not playing into it.

I agree with you Anon and I don't think that it should happen. Realistically removing someone's Commander is a poor decision unless it becomes an imminent threat, because that is the card that has the most resilience.
I think that unfortunately the way the people's minds work, and the way that the game works with the disparity between the cost of removal and the cost of your commander, often people come to the conclusion that the best thing to do IS to remove someone's Commander with the idea that you're going to slow down the deck and strategy significantly, because in Commander people build around their commanders.
The issue is both that it defeats the purpose of the format but also that the assessment is not always wrong.
>I just don't get it. What's even the point of commander if all you're doing is removing and getting your commander removed. Might as well play Canadian Highlander.
I feel like you're exactly correct with this statement, but I can't deny that I have some decks where removing the commander slows it down.
Personally I try my best not to remove other people's commanders because I know how frustrating that is, and even though I want to win obviously, and have a competitive game, I would rather remove their big threats.
something I also find fun in, is building commanders that are less popular and uncommon or less remove on sight. Sometimes you'll get ignored for a large portion of the game. But this of course depends on the table and group you are in, and eventually you can run into an interesting paradox; when every commander and every card is remove on sight, suddenly nothing is.

People DO save their removal, which is precisely why a high cmc commander drop is such an attractive target. Also turn 6 and 7 is when people start having unused mana at the end of the turn, using it on a cheap removal spell now rather than later is very tempting.

The point at which people are casting 6 drops, not only can people board wipe, but it's probably getting necessary to board wipe because engines are online.
But either way, more and more commanders are printed where it IS the game plan. More than half the deck will be dedicated to triggering the commander, and if the commander is not on board the deck is significantly weakened.
If you pop someone's commander you're very often crippling them for a rotation or more.

I think it's a mix of social etiquette and threat assessment that keeps commanders of such high costs not getting instantly removed. There's often something worse you have to keep removal for and if you just blow it the moment they get their reccuring threat, their commander, on the board then you won't have much left when something else dangerous hits. If they have any basic up strategy that is.

If you can have a "few" tutors and game changers and only be bracket 3, you should also be able to have a "few" MLDs without immediately being lumped in with the good stuff sloppa bracket.

I think the problem with MLD is that in the context of commander is that on top of feeling like shit to play against anyway, the average commander mongoloid will just run shit that will absolutely grind the game to a halt with no way to break parity or regain advantage for themselves to close the game. I understand some mentally deficient individuals are okay with the tabletop equivalent of handing monkeys loaded shotguns but I'm not

I genuinely hate this more than I can put into words. There is literally zero way to stop green's ramp other than waste counterspells on it, which why the fuck would you when you can counter board wipes/game-ending spells? There's no actual effects to stop/slow down ramp unless you go bracket 4+ with MLD

A Talisman/Signet package alone is 7 cards of ramp in Grixis, and this is just the selection of cards so obvious even Timmy McNoGames can find them. You're chasing a boogeyman of bad deckbuilding choices (playing 15 ramp spells) when white has an entire identity slice based around mogging green's ramp.
