Houston, we have a BUG Problem! // Zask, Skittering Swarmlord: EDH Deck Tech //Jumpstart 2022 

Fun fact for the Grist interaction with Zask is that you can cast Grist from grave cause it’s a insect anywhere except the field and it counts as a planeswalker when it dies to theoretically you can cast Grist from your grave infinitely assuming you have infinite mana and a way to sac Grist

I believe (but I'm not 100% certain) that Konrad will trigger twice each time an insect dies. Once when the die and enter the graveyard, and then I second time when it leaves the graveyard and goes to the bottom of the library. I'm pretty sure it hits the graveyard first.

Canoptek Tomb Sentinel is unfortunately a bit of a nonbo with our Commander. We can play it from the graveyard, but it goes on the stack, so it doesn't technically enter FROM the graveyard. I was disappointed when I found out, but decided it's worth playing anyway because I have cards like The Cauldron of Eternity, Dread Return, Rise of the Witch King, Agadeem's Awakening and Victimize in the deck.

Zask, Skittering Swarmlord, this was my favorite commander from Jump/Start 2022. I instantly built a deck around him. Helm of the host, Living Hive, Blex vexing pest, Death's Presence, Crash of Rhino Beetles, Moldgraf Monstrosity, Wild Pair, Ant Queen, Gigantomancer, Fest on the Fallen, Glimpse of Nature, The Qzolith, Patriarch's Bidding, Beacon of Creation, Mesmeric Orb. Coat of arms.

Can’t wait to build this skittery boy! Keep up the awesome work :)

Crawling Sensation and Crawling Infestation are solid cards for this deck, since they'll add to the self-mill engine and make 1/1 insect tokens in the process. I'd also shout out Desecrated Tomb. Probably one of my favorite cards should your deck have the interaction to use it. Not making insects, but every single time an insect dies, or you cast one out of the graveyard you'll make a 1/1 bat. Tormod the Desecrator too - who, even better, will trigger off of you playing lands from they yard! Also fun note, Zask doesn't care if the insect that dies is a token or not! So if a token dies, you'll still mill two. Great, but also perhaps something to be careful of. And as always with tribal decks, Changelings are awesome. Green has a few good ones, and Black has two. Maskwood Nexus gets value too if there are enough (or valuable enough) non-insects to justify it.

another fun trick with this guy is cellar door is a way to grab a card from the bottom of your library and put it into your graveyard lol

Sadly I don't think Canoptek Tomb Sentinel works too well in this deck, since when you cast it from the grave with zask, its technically entering from the stack and not from the gy

This may just be one I build. Scute Swarm is a menace to society

I have been wanting an insect commander for years. I used to play a Xira Arien deck. It wasn't very good.

Having trouble on whether to build Zask or Grismold

With verdant succession you could go infinity
