Gyrus Waker of Corpses Commander 2018 Deck Tech 

Walker of Corpses? Dammit Jumbo ya goof. But on a real note, this deck can also support a secondary reanimator strategy with Meren.

So fast with the deck techs, heck yes! I'm excited for this commander, probably swapping out my Jund -1/-1 counter deck now

The hardest working man in commander content bar none!

Goin out to walk some corpses!

I miss your old elephant logo. Still love where this channel is going. glad to be one of the original sub's

Ya boi DJ getting ahead of everyone with the first deck tech of Gyrus on RU-vid😎

I think this boi us sliding into Vaevictis vs helming my new Jund deck, but dang he does look fun! Given how I'm aiming for a 90ish% Primal Surge deck for Vaevictis, this guy will have plenty of targets still in that deck. Loving these videos and the energy, bud!

I like that you said that it's not about being better, but being different. I'm excited about it. I can only play my Meren deck but so many times. I switch it up now and then, like right now I'm using a saproling subtheme, but sometimes you just want to try something different.

grazie jumbone per sto videone

DJ, your work is quickly becoming the best EDH stuff online! Fantastic stuff.. Now, to the begging. Why haven't you done a deck tech for your lovely Phenax deck? I need inspiration!

One of the new commanders i am most hype for.

Muldrotha was my first commander, this will be my fourth. I'm excited to play these 2 against each other.

Pretty sure you're wrong about Doubling Season + Gyrus here. Season acts as an effect modifier, the original effect is still putting in the extra tokens. Those extra tokens should still be tapped and attacking and exiled at end of turn.

Gyrus looks fun. Nature's vengeance is popping off xD

Here's a thought: You're running more than enough ETBs to warrant a Panharmonicon, and if you throw n a Riftsweeper, you can get your creatures out of exile.

Thanks for the video. Wanted to build Gyrus but doubling season be pricey. And now I want to chuck Desecrated Tomb into my Muldrotha so double thanks

Great vid. Couple recommendations, but maybe this is because my vision for this commander is higher power dudes. Xenogoes to increase commander power, thus allowing you grab bigger things, and grant haste when cheaty boots isn't out. Also, Sutured ghoul. Filling up the grave then exiling a ton of big dudes and come in with trample. Oh it sounds so good.

I love that deck!!

YEESSS THANKS DJ. My minds been going crazy with all the new cards. Any other new commander deck techs from the 2018 set coming soon?

Corpse Connoisseur rules. He’s a must in my “Varolz” deck!

I've been looking for a home for my Gigantomancer! Genius!!

Probably the commander I’m most looking forward to brewing with from the Jund deck; it’s like a Prossh Hydra! Lol

Great Commander, Great video.. but it lacks a certain NINJA finesse. Please, tell me you gonna deck tech Yuriko, the tigers' shadow? Pretty please..? =D

One card I would suggest adding to the deck would be Riftsweeper, as it is an option for potentially getting back exiled creatures, otherwise, sweet deck tech.

Very nice tech. Gyrus is an interesting creature to build around, and is one of my favorites from C18... Sadly, I think that there are not a lot of good new cards, but this hydra is one of the few.

first thing i thought of when i saw this was that master of cruelties

Thank you DJ. Help me fix this bad boy.

Because a lot of your creatures usefulness comes from ETB's, and the fact that you want to copy tokens, I'd like you to recommend a card I love called Feed The Pack. It works especially well with Hydras too, for if Gyrus ever gets pacified, or you want to upgrade him the turn after.

Been looking forward to this video since you appeared on Command Zone the other day. I think one card that you're missing is Muldrotha. To get back your enchantments or artifacts that have been destroyed or milled will make this a lot more consistent.

jund has the coolest commanders: Prossh, shattergang bros, sek'kuar, the new spider king, lord windgrace and this boi

I would love to see a lands matter deck tech with the new walker!

Hey Jumbo, can you make one for Aminatou, the Fateshifter? I'm curious what deck ideas do you have on her. Thanks. :)

I have a gruul hydra tribal deck, but since I saw this card I've been tempted to make it Jund because Gyrus just seems awesome. One card I also love is Deadbridge Chant. Reanimation and putting stuff in the grave for Gyrus? Sign me up!

Could Kari Zev work? Not too high an impact but it is low power and creates a token when it attacks (that also happens to be attacking) And maybe Hanweier as well?

What about Kalonian Hydra? That has 0 power and will attack for 8, as well as doubling the amount of +1/+1 counters on Gyrus.

Looks like a sweet deck. I would go with Purphoros, God of the forge, Xenagos, God of Revels, Kalonian Hydra and Panharmanicon for a little more flavor and power in the deck. With all those ETB triggers Panharmanicon would be soooo good.

Ghoulcaller Gisa and Ashnods Alter could set up a pretty good sac combo to make Gyrus huge

Ooze Flux might be fun, You can make x/x ooze creatures out of all the counters on Gyrus and even kill it if you want to cast it later for a higher cost.

Hi Dj, I really love your channel (a lot :) ) will u please do a decktech with either tuvasa or estrid which is value enchantress and not just auras. i have been wanting to build an enchantress deck for a long time and i think you could do something simmilar like you did with the merfolk and goblins duel decks upgrading specific areas of a deck. I Know these deck techs take a lot of time but it would mean a lot. xx

parallel lives needs to be here for sure

Can you do a deck tech of Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow next ?

I hate hate hate your intro. But I like your videos so I usually put up with it.

Hey Jumbo can we get an Estrid tech. I'm thinking control type big creatures like Sigarda and Dragon Lord Dramoka what do ya think?

Can you do a deck tech on Yuriko the tigers shadow!

Hey Man, nice Play wish u luck ( wünsche dir Glück). From Germany

What about Grave Betrayal just to take creatures that are destroyed on the opponents field as a way to stop them from reviving those until they destroy them again?

................PRAISE THE GODS!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you jumbo commander ! thank you !!!! * W * sorry for the emotional explode (and my bad grammar (from germany ^^") )but since the preview by the command zone i have waited for this * W *

Jumbo, what do you think about the new ninja lord?!

I'd like to see a "reaper king" edh deck tech, please! :D

Better be quite otherwise you might, Walk the Dead! BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I wanted to build this guy and was looking for tips, glad you made this!

What you said about doubling season is only kinda true , due to the fact it says an effect doubling season does make a tapped attacking token that gets exiled but primal vigor does not because it's worded different

Sees elephant logo. More like... Dumbo commander. 🕶️->👋->😎. I'll go now. Love you dude

Since we are deliberately exiling our creatures, perhaps Living Wish as a way to get additional uses out of our exiled creatures?

How do you feel about including other value sac outlets besides Birthing Pod in the deck? My thought is chances are the majority of tokens being made will be getting exiled anyways, so I'm considering including cards like Viscera Seer, Disciple of Griselbrand and Flesh Carver. Oh and did I forget to mention Viscera Seer?? Lol it's still early to tell but are these worth including in your opinion?

I think you also want a bunch of bigger stuff. you're in green, so you'll have plenty of ramp, especially when you recur some of your ramp creatures. Put in like a Hellkite Tyrant or Giant Adephage. Also, have a look at Shisato, Whispering Hunter.

Death's presence maybe? Make your commander either continually get bigger by main phase 2 using a sac outlet to kill your token and feed gyrus, or ensure that the power he (or any other big creatures) has stays relevant if he gets killed.

with a deck/commander that gets +1/+1 counters on it so easily, would you recommend running Corpsejack Menace to double up on the counters even further? or would that be too unreliable or overkill?

Can you make one with the new ninja commander? I would love to see that one

I really like this card, but why do I want a little more unf in him (Like Giving him Trample, Menace, and/or instead of exiling the token sacrifice it), but He's a Jund card I really like. I hope for more! ^^

Gyrus taking corpses for a walk like they're dogs LOL

Oh, if it's not too much an ask, might I be able to put a request in for a Yennett deck tech over the next month? I saw her today and.....my interest was piqued. Top-deck shenanigans? A way to play stuff for free (in black, my fav color, vs usually temur)? AND literally an odd restriction for deck-building? I'm in! Would love to see your thoughts as well, but will wait patiently. 😀

Regarding Doubling Season: You don't get to keep the second token, it's an exact copy. Doubling Season essentially replaces the word "a" with "two" on the attack trigger. Populate would have worked though, since it's a separate effect.

Is this going to replace Wasitora as doublingseason.deck?

Riftsweeper (1G 2/2 from Future Sight) can be a good inclusion for this deck to get usable creatures from exile to recur with Gyrus.

We need a video on the new legendary ninja

the" whenever a creature attacks " stuff doesnt work with gyrus because they werent declared as attacker

How can i send you my list? We both have very similar ideas but execution is way different. Ive already tested the 99 with Kresh at the helm smashing through both oloro and zur pillowforts but lost to thrumming rats (sad day) without being able to return any creatures the deck went ham and seeing as this is what im most stoked for id like to brain storm a few things becuse i think you missed other potential with Gyrus. Tokens that ETB from creatures like seige gang commander and paired with efftes like perpheros.

What about Buried Alive?

Do Brudiclad and Arixmethes too please!

I just had an idea. What if you had doubling season and riftsweeper? If you exiled riftsweeper, made 2 copies, could you return riftsweeper and another card, since the ETB effects go on the stack after Gyrus? Interesting piece of tech there

Now you should cover Yuriko and Brudiclad.

If you can get its power high enough, desolation twins maybe? With doubling season you can make 6 10/10s. (I might be high and math could be a weaker skill of mine, so feel free to correct me).

I can go for gyro waker of my stomach right now.

This might of been mentioned already but can I suggest 'Greater Good'? think of the value >:P

The Hydra in Disney Hercules had legs.

Is it because Gyrus' ability ends at the end of COMBAT that sundial would work? My understanding of the wording on Gyrus is that Sundial would only end the trigger at the end of your combat, but would trigger again at the end of your opponent's combat step. Wouldn't it have to be worded "exiled at the end of this combat step" or maybe "exiled at the end of the next combat step"? I suppose the token would stay if you either sacked or flickered Gyrus... but that doesn't seem very practical. Just to clarify, I'm not entirely sure on this point, and if I'm very wrong then I apologize... any comments to clarify this matter would be really appreciated!!

You said that tokens duplicated by doubling season wouldnt be attacking nor be exiled at end of turn. But form what I researched this is not the case, the token duplicates are the exact same, they attack and get exiled too.

Surprised you didn't mention Path to discovery :)

When Gyrus attacks, does he copy the creature that has a smaller power than his or does he copy the creature that has the least power in the graveyard ????

Hey jumbo Pls make a deck tech on 2x 60 card decks that are designed to help each other win E.g. Regna the redeemer deck And krav the unredeemable

I would substitute Phyrexian Delver for Body Snatcher. Body Snatcher is a 2BB 2/2 creature from Urza's Destiny with "When Body Snatcher enters the battlefield, exile it unless you discard a creature card." and "When Body Snatcher dies, exile Body Snatcher and return target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield."

Please make a deck on brudiclad he looks so fun

Waker my guy

are there hydras without legs ?

Does anyone else think a discard sub-theme would be pretty good here?

Can u makmake a updated deck

I miss the old elephant in your introduction

Just made mine! My deck is more slow, people think im doin nothing. Then suddenly i throw out a xenegos and hit a dude for a kill, then fling it for a secound kill. Im just having a bunch of etb removal to keep the bord on the same lvl until i get something to just instantly kill them. Neheb, rakdos or the gruul/golgari dragons to get a ton of mana and then get warstrum surge and cast the commander for a ton of damage, gg.

Hydra commander that doesnt work with X hydras...

Why no Chromiun Deck Tech in the Elder Dragons cycle of videos?

Don’t forget about buried alive (sorcery)(2B)(Search ur library for three creatures and put them into ur graveyard)

Unfortunately you are incorrect about the doubling season interaction with the commander because the doubling is a replacement effect. This is the same interaction doubling season has with myriad. If you were to populate the tokens, or use Rhys to copy the tokens once they are on the battlefield, then they wouldnt go away, but the replacement effect means that it does copy the state of the token including tapped and attacking, and the exile delayed trigger. The same information was posted to the Command Zone reveal video as well.

Legend has it DJ will like your comment if you post it soon enough

Jund 'em out!

Spicy recursion tech: timesifter

rosheen meanderer?

I saw other people pointing out that Doubling Season and friends doesn't work as explained. Now let me present what really work like discribed: Second Harvest & Druid's Deliverance Instant speed is important becasue you need the two cards in your battle phase (Horncaller's Chant won't do it) Now the real trick we create a token that actually works as explained while the doubling season tokens will be exiled as well. But if we use Second Harvest while we created a temporal token of a card like Eternal Witness we'll get our second Harvest Back and keep a Eternal Witness Token. Now we can play Second Harvest as long as we have 4 mana and double our token over and over while also returning our Instant & Sorcery cards to keep control over the match. But this won't mean we need to forgett about Doubling Season and Friends. If Doubling Season is out we'll get two Token copies that get exiled, while two stay on the battlefield for the next turn. Doubling Season and friends only work as another Panharmonicon like effect for this deck while also granting another strong beater. The deck basically works as if we have Mimic Vat as Commander but need to get our Trostani out of our deck (altough this case we sadly miss out on all those white spells). But by gaining Black we can easily tutor up the Combo with Final Parting by putting Eternal Witness in the Graveyard and Second Harvest in our Hand. If we want to go really crazy like Infinity Eternal Witnesses: Add Mana Echos & Gemstone Array. In the End every other card that care about counters, token, mana ramp and have strong enter the battlefield effect can still be in the Deck.

Is it just a coincidence that a ton of the suggested cards are reprinted in Ultimate Masters?

Hermit Druid. Hermit Druid.

To answer ur question. Yes most Hydras have legs. ;)
