Cut-Rate Commander - Episode 99 - Featuring Vraska, the Silencer from Outlaws of Thunder Junction #mtg #edh #commander #MTGOTJ #mtgthunder
Hey Folks! Submitted for your approval, we have our 3rd Commander build for Outlaws of Thunder Junction - this time featuring the recently uncompleated but still deadly Gorgon - Vraska, the Silencer.
In this build, we'll be aiming to make the most our commanders ability to turn our "steal" our opponents creatures for us as artifacts by running a veritable arsenal of removal spells to inflict as many casualties into our opponents creature bases as possible - ranging from AOE edicts that will cause indiscriminate destruction to all our opponents creature bases simultaneously to maximize our treasure generation, to more precise single / multi-targeting spot removal spells so that we can pick off precisely the creatures we want to take for ourselves. Then, to augment our removal heavy playstyle even more, we'll be adding in a suite of on death payoffs to generate us even more value / inflict damage as we pick off our opponents creatures, as well as artifacts payoffs that do the same for the treasures we create via Vraska's effect to ramp up our value and the damage we inflict onto our opponents even further - until our opponents have no choice but to join their creatures under our relentless torrent of removal spells as stolen value.
Let me know if the comments below if you agree with my choices and/or what you would add to the deck instead.

Hey folks! Sorry the upload was a day late (IRL stuff caught up with me) but the Vraska build is up now! And with Morder Horizons 3 coming up - and basically the entire set leaked already.... - let me know which commanders from that set you folks would like to see me tackle in future builds once we're done covering the Percon Upgrades for that set!

@thbmeseeks7785 14 дней назад

For sure the eldrazi precon!! 🙏🙏

@long946 11 дней назад

Actually not sure if it is too late before you do MH3, but could you do Eriette the Beguiler? It’s Alson an interesting commander!

@DrSneelex 13 дней назад

I love these budget deck videos. You really keep everything in mind something as simple as running Planeswalkers cause we will be keeping enemy creature count low is the type of stuff that I love to think about in deck building. Pretty much all my decks are built over your budget decks!

@GrazzetMTG 8 дней назад

Happy to hear that you take notice of all the nuances that go into my builds and that you've been using my builds as a jumping off point for your own!

@awesomedude202 7 дней назад

Excellent build as always! I actually have two card recommendations here, I'd personally replace Go for the Throat with Bitter Triumph. It's the same CMC but is conditionless creature (or planeswalker) removal, with the very slight downside of needing to either discard a card (don't do that one probably) or lose 3 life. Generally speaking I like my removal to be as conditionless as it can be, and the likes of stuff like Go for the Throat, or Doom Blade, have failed me so many times at clutch moments lol Now the other card I just want to mention without any idea for a replacement, just because it's genuinely one of the best lifegain spells I've seen in the game and nobody knows about it. It's called "Grim Feast" and for just 3CMC you have an enchantment that deals 1 damage to you during your upkeep, and WHENEVER AN OPPONENT'S CREATURE DIES, GAIN LIFE EQUAL TO ITS TOUGHNESS. No weird conditions, or once per turn, just... oh my god it WORKS lol. It's not even a horribly expensive card either. Like it's not nothing, but my quick snooping around I did puts it around $5. But yeah just wanted to mention it, there's always commander damage to worry about, but the sheer amount of life this friggin' 3 drop gets you is NUTS, especially combined with how much removal is in this deck. Like imagine a boardwipe lol, you gain like 30.

Hi Grazzet! I wanted to ask if it was possible to get a archelos, lagoon mystic Cut rate commander?

@GrazzetMTG 8 дней назад

Not any time soon I'm afraid - lots of deck tech coming up and I simply don't have the time to go back to older sets to tackle commanders from them. That said, since a lot of folks want me to tackle older commanders, maybe in the future when I have more time I can do a "retro" series where I do older builds.... Something to think about...

@roborob6033 14 дней назад

She's a less complex version of myrkul, Lord of bones. But damn is she a really good commander

@TheCCPlayer 14 дней назад

Vraska keeping the abilities of the cards it steals is rather good, didn't even notice that thing at first and thought she just turned them into treasures losing other abilities. From the leaks of MH3, Kudo, King Among Bears has been rather interesting on turning everything into bears, and then Ashling, Flame Dancer as a mono red spell slinger deck. Looking forward on what MH3 commanders you'll cover.

@Porlakh 13 дней назад

Really good vid. This looks as a really opressive budget deck, tbh jajajaa. Could there be an option to see you making a cut-rate commander deck for Roxanne? I love your style of videos and how clear you say the arguments for each card, keep up the great work!

@GrazzetMTG 8 дней назад

Glad you enjoyed it! Roxanne, Starfall Savant is certainly an interesting build around, but sadly I won't have time any time soon due to Modern Horizons 3 being on the Horizon (pun intended). Still, if enough folks want me to keep Outlaws of Thunder Junction commanders in the polls once be bring them back, I would not be opposed to it.

@Porlakh 7 дней назад

@@GrazzetMTG Understandable! MH3 come really strong, and is next to AC and Bloomburrow (one per month is insane). Would be difficult for Roxanne to have attention, but looking foward to your builds for the next expansions! Altair and Ezio :3 jusjusjus, we will see how they go with the rest of that set, jeje ^^ a Brotherhood kind of deck would be really awesome ^^

@BioRose671 9 дней назад

Hey Grazzet, srry im late but can you suggest an CEDH Upgrade list for this deck, would love to make this deck as competitive as possible

@GrazzetMTG 8 дней назад

Sadly I am not the person to provide CEDH deckbuild advice, since that is a VASTLY different beast than the budget or even tradition EDH builds I usually tackle. That said r/CompetitiveEDH on reddit may be able to provide you with the insight your looking for (or can at least tell you if Vraska is CEDH viable). Hope that helps!

@Galchoo1 14 дней назад

Oh hey, it's Vraska! No wonder I am as harder than ro- *petrification and assassination noises* Bad puns aside, amazing vid as always! And the poll winner is... Kellan? Oof... guess Analysis Paralysis was too scary. Or just MC priviledges. Day 990 of waiting for the face reveal. Thoughts on Modern Horizons 3?

@GrazzetMTG 14 дней назад

Yeah, Kellan was just able to edge out a victory in the polls, but it was neck and neck there for a while. Honestly, I wish I had the time to build both but with Modern Horizon 3 coming up (and a milestone we have to celebrate) I just don't have the time..... Then regarding Modern Horizons 3, its shaping up to be a good looking set so far - with a lot of good stuff in the commander decks and in the main set. I honestly can't wait to start brewing around some of these after I'm done covering the precons!

@teddysworldinsane7382 14 дней назад

Would grave pact and dictate of erebos work in this deck?

@GrazzetMTG 8 дней назад

Both world work, since we have a decent number of edict creatures that we'll be sacing to their own effects to proc them, as well as just getting passive usage out of them as we lose our creatures to removal.

@teddysworldinsane7382 14 дней назад

Grazzet would be awesome if you did a Bonny pall deck 😌

@jerryregan9110 14 дней назад

How would Displaced Dinosaurs from the Doctor Who set interact with Vraska's ability? Would it give the "treasure" a creature ability as well? Guess the same question for Vihaan's ability? I know by making the "treasures" creatures, it would subject them to possibly be removed by a target spell or board wipe, but might be a game ender situation

@rei336 14 дней назад

Vraska strips them of creature status before any other effects so yes dd works

@GrazzetMTG 8 дней назад

Exactly, making it a great addition!

@wilks2006 14 дней назад

If an opponent’s commander dies, game recognizes it dies and goes to graveyard - can you pay the one to take that commander before it moves to command zone?

@Bladewing342 14 дней назад

no, because it is still the opponents priority to decide if the Commander would actually go to the graveyard. Since the commander then is in Command Zone, I'm pretty sure, it's no longer a legal target.

@mrbonlino 14 дней назад

The player may choose to put their commander in the command zone whenever it changes zones, as a replacement effect. If the player has their commander die its changing zones from battlefield to grave, prompting the zone change to command zone. If the player decides to keep the commander in grave upon death, you now have the option to pay the 1 and take it. However, from this point, the commander card is once again moving zones (grave to battlefield) so the player has the option to instead move it to command zone. Take this as if the player wanted to do a cheeky reanimate play with their commander, you've paid 1 to force them to make a decision, let you keep the commander as a token, or they return it to command zone, which would waste whatever graveyard trick they intended to use with their commander

Does that mean Akul aint getting a vid ? :(

@GrazzetMTG 14 дней назад

Sadly not for the time being. Its Kellan, then Modern Horizon 3 Precon Upgrades, then a build featuring one of the alternate commanders for the precons.... But maybe after that I'll have polls that are a mix of Thunder Junction and Mordern Horizons 3 commanders - we'll just have to wait and see.
