New Ways To Build Old Commanders 

Exactly what I was thinking about rn. Your streak in uploading exactly what I asked for just mere minutes to hours before the video is uploaded is actually unreal wth.

God these vids are so good. They make me remember why I love the format.

With feed the pack, you can also then re cast your commander the next turn after swinging with the wolves to devour them all to make an even bigger army of wolves!

One notable mechanic from recent sets that could be big for Pharika are cards that trigger from you committing a crime, as Pharika’s activated ability fulfills it every time it targets an opponent’s graveyard.

Love the idea of Thromok... He can be a 1/1, a 4/4, a 9/9, a 16/16, a 25/25, a 36/36, etc., etc. I need to make a deck for him, it just always felt so vulnerable....

Kaho, Minamo historian can cast Inevitable Betrayal for 0 mana immediately, rather than waiting for suspend - untap him several times via shenanigans and steal every good creature straight out of your opponents' decks.

43 creatures is the *most* you’ve ever put in a creature-focused deck?! I’m regularly well into the 50s for my creature-based decks like Teysa Karlov (55 there, and that’s even with 38 lands)

Kaho makes a really interesting infect commander and proliferate got a lot of tools to make it really viable. Tutor up prologue to phyresis and get going before the table kills you! I recently built a Jeleva, Nephalia's Scourge deck and with the synergy for exile-casting from the past two years she's very strong.

Thromak with All Will Be One feels like an example from the previous video about “stealing the win from your deck”.

LEEEETSSGOOO!! am ALWAYS here for these

Hmmm. I put together a list with Dr. Madison Lit that's UW, but which also run significant Red color support (almost entirely for the commander). It also runs Bobblehads, making any color. It also runs giant artifact creatures to close the game out with. Thus, Lux Artillery makes the already-giant artifact creatures terrifying. Nice find!

More excellent content. Thanks

The king is back!

i just watched a video by 3/3 Elk that was a neat take on pharika and im really contemplating building her now

As one of the 5 Thromok players, she is a seriously great commander. These is no better feeling then summoning a 112/112 and casting Chardra's Ignition to kill the entire table.

As a long time Pharika lover, some other pieces of neat tech are the black and green runes from Kaldheim. Great for boosting Pharika into a more lethal threat and won't ever fall off as she switches between being a creature and a noncreature. The same can be said for keyword counters. Crimes work really well. I was an early adopter of Desecrated Tomb with Pharika as just more ways to ooze value from each of her activations. I long waited for the trickle of this brand of graveyard value/synergy piece to come. The free commander spells don't specify that you need a creature, just a commander. Pharika as an enchantment is still the commander.

I've been playing Thromok for years. Its such a fun deck.And yeah, the fastest I've slapped a card into a deck was when I opened All Will Be One.😂

Love these old look back vids

Great video! Makes me want to build 'Pharika...".

the cards you showed in the thromok part will help alot for my Rith, the Awakener Devour theme deck :D

I just built thromok recently and it’s been a blast!

Got Thromok in my Omnath, rage deck. I cast it, devour all my elementals and take one player out. Then I fling Thromok at another player. Always fun.

Sheer BRILLIANCE! ❤🎉

Pharika has a lot of new tools, kinda want to build it myself now

Heres an idea for an edh variant. "5-star generals" Everyones commander has to be exactly 5cmc. This could be done with any cmc

Kaldra Compleat can allow Kaho to play your opponent's creatures from exile!

I love your videos and we have extremely similar philosophies on deck building but every time i watch your videos i just think "hell yeah, parkway drive"

I gotta build Thromok. I’ve been thinking about it on and off for years. I’m thinking especially about the Riot enchantments like Rhythm of the Wild and Uncivil Unrest, and I really dig Feed the Pack. ✌️

Love revisiting old commanders. Temmet, Vizier of Naktamun used to not have enough with Go Tall Tokens in his colors. It was Benthic Anomaly in MH3 that made me reexamine him.

I built Izoni Center of Web when MKM released. It was exactly the same build around than Pharika : exiling cards from your own Graveyard to benefit from cards like tormod, the crypt that makes bats, etc. I might try pharika as the leader of the deck to change things up (also making it 3 mana chaper to cast)

I have never seen most of these cards, might be something interesting to build

I gotta say, what drew me originally to your channel was your "10 cards you should be putting in your commander decks" videos and how you would dredge up all these older quirky gems. Then when you shifted more towards highlighting new commanders/ nEw mUsT hAvE cArDs 😂i sorta tuned out your videos for a while. But I 100% stand with your take on how power creep has gotten so overwhelming/ out of hand and your decision to not buy new cards anymore. Amen brother, here's to you helping us find ways to still enjoy this wonderful game without feeding the MOAR POWER MOAR POWER GIMME GIMME GIMME cash cow "rotating commander format" that Wizards has become! P.S. I would love to see you make a video giving your thoughts and ideas on the "PreDH" format.

19:45 "Burning Anger", "Elemental Mastery", "Surestrike Trident" , 20:33 yeah, lots of green punch cards, ... there are lots of options there

syr konrad in pharika looks very good

I really like the Pharika one

been looking to make a Pharika deck. It's slow, but so much value with all the new "when something leaves gy" token makers

I will say the videos you make about interesting old cards are much better than the videos you make complaining about new cards

Pharika works amazing with crime cards from thunder junction

Loreth of the Healing House is a slam dunk for Kaho as well... I'm sure you can find a way to abuse her ability 😊

Kaho with illusionist bracers is quite cool seeming.

For thromok you would like cards like the enchantment that gives riot to all your creatures

Now with those 30 wolves got can recast Thromok next turn and get 30(30) +1/+1 counters on him. And then sac him to get exponentially more tokens if 30 wasn't enough

I used to build thraximundar as a sacrifice deck but now im building him as a rogues outlaws deck!

I keep wanting to fix up my thromok deck might finally do it

I've been building "leave graveyard" deck and was wondering who should I use as a commander and what total colours. My pics were pharika, the legendary troll I forgot the name of with scavenge and Khaga shadow archdruid for golgari Grul partner commander that creates tokens with the orzhov partner commander to created 4 colour leave graveyard deck I was also looking at the new Coram for jund colors but just red doesn't have enough but Boros from strixhaven (in the 4 colour one) are great. I want the deck to be focused but I also want all the cool cards.

For the Koho commander the instant that makes islands add more mana would be cool with archeo mancer and flicker

Thromok is a deck I am thinking of making in a landfall/land creature strategy.

Burning Anger is also very good in thromok because it's repeatable

seems cool to turn lux artillery into a creature and give it infect

Have you ever thought about putting "Chevill, bane of monsters" in your pharika's deck ?

You have a tcgplayer affiliate link anymore? Would love to support you when I buy some cards.

Brother take a look at Marath again that thing slaps.

if you blink kaho can you cast the cards previously exiled with kaho?

I'd like to build a commander deck with only retro frame cards since there are now so much cards available with that, but it's hard to get a feeling what a good strategy/commander/colour combination for that would be; availability and so on. Any suggestions for a deck like this? I don't want to buy the Urza or Mishra precons btw :)

I’m building a thromak deck after seeing it on paymoneyeubbys game nights

Kaho + 0 cost cards

I just wish Thromok was Jund... Devour is my favorite and he just skips too many of the cool devour synergy cards without black so he's better in the 99 of Prossh. But one day I will have a true Jund Devour commander. >:)

Devour. You say this word, I do not think it means what you think it means

Kaho > Vantress visions > infinite spells > Sentinel Tower pings everyone. Does this work?

Would All Will Be One even see the counters be put on a creature with Devour if it ETBs with the counters on it already?

Pharika with Tainted Aeither, Dingus Staff, Compost and Bereavement will never not be amazing. Chuck in a Virulent Plague or Illness in the Ranks and it becomes brutal. The deck becomes this kind of Grismold clone but with alot more "stax" pieces and creature hate.

also pharika is decent at comitting crimes

Insidious Roots is good but what is that art…?
