Cut-Rate Commander - Episode 90 - Featuring The Mycotyrant from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan #mtg #edh #commander #mtgixalan #mtglci
Hey Folks! Submitted for your approval, we have our 3rd Cut-Rate Commander build for The Lost Caverns of Ixalan - the descend focused fungus The Mycotyrant.
In this build, we'll be going all in on enabling our commanders ability to grow our board with fungi tokens (and thereby growing itself) by filling up our graveyard with as many permanents as we can. As such, this build is going to be permanents all the way down - forgoing instants and sorceries so we can run more permanent sources of self mill, self discard, and self sacrifice to proc The Mycotyrant with every single card that hits our bin. That, coupled with multiple ways to recur resources from our graveyard - effectively turning it into a second hand for us play - and ways to empower our fungi to be as dangerous as their progenitor - enabling The Mycotyrant and his brood of mycoids to grow in number and in strength until they overwhelm, consume, and assimilate our opponents.
Let me know if the comments below if you agree with my choices and/or what you would add to the deck instead. Also, let me know know who you would like to see next by voting on in the comments on the three choices of commander listed at the end of the video.

Hey folks! Let me know in the comments below what you thought of the build, if there are any cards you think I missed that would be a good fit for it, and what other commanders you would like to see me cover from this set.

I personally find the Mycotyrant to be an awesome tribute and love letter to an age old set of tribes that is still very much loved and played to this day and time: Fungi and saprolings. Best part is this really is a budget tribe as all cards almost no matter how your build is are both cheap and easily accessible to any and all mtg players as well as the Mycotyrant gives fungus players a mythic rare commander of their own to use. A personal awesome thing for me this is a real Golgari tribe as most of the Fungus cards have a good mix of Black and Green cards and outright reward for playing Golgari. Yes elves are regarded as the biggest Golgari tribe of all but in realistic reality almost all of those cards veer towards playing green even the black cards(at least two cards add green mana to your mana pool)and the black elves aren't even nearly as numerous or as powerful as the green ones as well as the number of elf cards that both add green mana and demand green mana to use their abilities activated or otherwise makes me so no point to playing them as a Golgari but I do play them as an amazing mono green EDH tribe

I built a Mycotyrant deck but will be making some changes after watching this video. One artifact I added was Keening Stone, it's really brutal, especially with the Mesmeric Orb in play

@roborob6033 4 месяца назад

You know it's funny. Im actually building a self mill insect deck with Zask Skittering Swarmlord. He's a unique commander, being a crucible of worlds on a body. I noticed they are kinda similar, although zask wants you to reanimate more.

@RaginKavu 4 месяца назад

Nice deck as always! I always suggest Spawning Pit to any deck, as a free sac outlet artifact. And, as it makes tokens as well, it serves as a board wipe insurance.

@MrPaddypractice 2 месяца назад

Guides are amazing. Deck builds are fantastic. Ive seen a few versions of this deck and was mad to build one but the cheapest i can get is €123 and thats before shipping. Still though, keep up the great work. Love the guides and decks. Ive done some of the upgrades you suggested. Looking forward to testing them against some friends.

@ismael9914 4 месяца назад

Loved your video, gotta say, I've never tried a "self mill" type deck, I might try yours online, as it looks easy to pilot and quite strong. For future future EDH builts, I don't know if Xavier Sal, Infested Captain, from the Lost Caverns Commander cards has catched your attention. Its an interesting Populate/Proliferate commander. I've tried building it a Saga thematic with a little bit of superfriends on it, but I can't figure it out how make the pieces work, even tho there are planeswalkers and sagas that are game finishers, I lack the boardstate to get to them or finish the other players before their strats wins.

@GrazzetMTG 4 месяца назад

Glad you enjoyed it and, if you did end up building/piloting it, let me know how it goes! Xavier Sal, Infested Captain is certainly an interesting build around. He does have a few directions he can be taken in (Tokens, Super Friends, Counters, etc) so I wouldn't mind tackling a build with him at the helm to see what direction I would settle on taking him in.

@tienkieu4806 3 месяца назад

If you ever consider adding at least 1 non-permanent spell, Dread return is your card. With tons of tokens to sac, we can cheat out our top ends like Syr Konrad or Dreadhound if we happen to mill any of them.

@tienkieu4806 3 месяца назад

also Species Specialist is a pretty good swap for Moldervine Reclamation as well because it is a creature (easy to recur and reanimate) and it is a "may" ability so you don't accidentally draw yourself to dead

@CrowQQ 4 месяца назад

I was surprised to not see Altar of the Brood or Altar of Dementia (i guess for budget reasons). These two cards (and any creature that cares about amounts of cards in graves) open up a rather easy alternative wincondition by milling opponents. Dementia supercharges selfmilling since keyword Descend keeps (in mycotyrants case) count and only cares about how many "events" of "descend" have happened and not about content of the grave. So we add any shuffler like Gaeas Blessing or any of the old legal Eldrazi titans and we can safely self mill and shuffle our grave repeatedly (if we have material for the altar) for massive descent count. Double altar and a shuffler is a very space efficient insert for the deck and enables combo options for game fimishes.

@TheMagicBeaner 2 месяца назад

I like the idea of using the altars with Gaeas blessing since I don't own the titans and the price between them is crazy. What would you take out for those?

@liketofish4383 4 месяца назад

Mesmeric orb basalt monolith and realmwalker lets you mill your deck while looking at each card before you mill it. Then use something like ayara, first of locthwain to kill everyone at your end step.

Fair enough. Ixalan was fun for me overall, but I would be lying is I wasn't hype for the return to, return to, return to Ravnica and all the fun murder mystery that comes with it.

@barrysetser3909 4 месяца назад

Odd segue with a Meren build I was pondering - a whole host of Golgari cards I've not seen before. Surprising since my most typical build tends to be Golgari

I want to point chatterfang for this deck, I tried just for fun and...he is a menace, just the quantity of blockers that he gives you is insane, also, it's eassy to kill something when you just made maybe 8 squirrels

@Lyzarion 4 месяца назад

Maybe a dumb question but is there a reason why there are no instants and sorcery cards and little removal cards? Is it because of self mill strategy and the chances are to high to have them milled so it is better have more graveyard matters cards? I never have played self mill/milling deck before but this deck looks interessting and fum to play

@yenchitan7276 4 месяца назад

What are your thoughts on Mending of Dominaria as a Saga in this deck?

@GrazzetMTG 4 месяца назад

I actually tested with it in the deck and, while it can be useful to get us via milling us, recurring creatures and generating a whole lot of ramp by "reanimating" our lands from the bin - the fact that is forces us to then shuffle our grave back into our deck is too much of a deal breaker in my opinion - since we're running far too many cards that use our graveyard that may be "turned off" for multiple turns once this happens. That said, this build can refill the bin quite rapidly, so you can still make the argument to run it for the value it provides. So, TLDR; not my cup of tea, but can still be useful.

@yenchitan7276 4 месяца назад

@@GrazzetMTG ah. Make sense. Guess that saga works better for land fall decks with around 40 land count.

To be fair, most of them are. That said, it looks like there either was a minor editing error on the price of Merciless Executioner (I have it at $0.05 on my spreadsheet but TCGplayer is showing it at around $0.25) so that is my bad. Thanks for bring this to my attention.

I wonder if Uurg and Terravore would work in the 99 in this deck. Uurg sucks but if you add a trample/draw terravore it might be another late win con

@joshuasinger4649 3 месяца назад

I’m commenting this while listening, but your opponents can’t kill mycotyrant at end of m2 without you getting a chance to recast it.

@jackmcnally8706 4 месяца назад

I really like the Mycotyrant as a self mill deck because the descend mechanic has some built in resistance to graveyard hate. Descending only cares about permanents hitting your graveyard. It hardly matters if it gets exiled later, and if it gets shuffled back in, great, you can descend even more! The ONLY problematic cards are replacement effects that stop the card from hitting the graveyard all together such as Rest in Peace, Dauthi Voidwalker, and Leyline of the Void. They will still of course prevent other graveyard shenanigans like reanimation but it’s something!

Great video and deck but This voicing is atrocious. Is it AI? Because always ending a sentence with an upward inflection is almost impossible to listen to

@GrazzetMTG 4 месяца назад

Glad you enjoyed it. The voice is mine, so sorry I can't really do much to change that. I naturally have a very monotone voice, so the alternative would be me droning on for 30 or so minutes, which is quite possible even worst.... Maybe someday I can spring for some professional voice training/coaching.
