Good to see the classic start with Wayfarer’s Bauble is back, Mitch’s power and toughness are equal to the difference between the bauble’s price and a dollar in cents divided by ten and rounded down to the nearest ten.

@Link6817 2 года назад

That formula would imply, that a 10€ bauble price, would be good for the card o.O?

I actually built this commander with a dual tribal theme : Insects and Skeletons, mostly due to Grist reminding me of the Revenant enemy from Doom. So I got quite a few changelings to compensate for the dual tribal theme, and it includes Skeletal Swarming as a nice way to utilize those Skeletons. I'll look to see if I can slot in Warlock Class in the deck.

@callahanjohnson 2 года назад

Love the deck techs Mitch! Constructive criticism though: I would love it if you included a section in your deck techs where you more clearly laid out the decks strategy/general play pattern. Maybe it would make more sense to weave that into your current sections for the video, but there are a couple deck techs where I've been left wondering exactly how the deck comes together. Likely I could see it if I stared at the deck list long enough, but I'd personally enjoy hearing it in the video. Perhaps others wouldn't agree though and would prefer a shorter video. 🤷‍♂️

@Danothyus1 2 года назад

IMO one of the coolest commanders ever made. One thing that was not mentioned here but that it works really great is that Grist counts as a creature everywhere that is not the field. This mean you can easily let him die and reanimate him with spells that bring creatures back, skipping the commander tax. When i played this deck, the turn where i use forever young, If Grist is in the grave, you can put everything back with him on top and instantly draw him back.

@JohnSmith-vk9ds Месяц назад

Another thing that means is that he dodges common cheap planeswalker counters like Negate or Dovin's Veto, since she counts as a creature while she's on the stack. And then while in play she avoids common commander hosing cards like Darksteel Mutation and other effects that only target creatures since she loses her creature type and only becomes a planeswalker.

@TheElectrikCow 2 года назад

Would love to see an upgraded version of this deck, would be interested to see what you put in and what you'd take out

@trevormanning4596 Год назад

I think the only way to upgrade the deck is to just remove everything that isn't an insect, file your land base down so low that you just get your 3 lands to cast grist (I'm still working on this number lol) and then you just go wild with his first ability and attempt to kill with the ult as quickly as possible

@trevormanning4596 Год назад

This of course is less fun and kind of not insect tribal so take it with a grain of salt

@kainhighwind2 Год назад

@@trevormanning4596 You could mill yourself, use Grist's -5, put all your creatures back on your deck, and do it all over. Gravepurge, Footbottom Feast, Forever Young, and bone Harvest all have the same effect: "Put any number of target creature cards from your graveyard on top of your library. Draw a card." So you mill yourself, put them all on top, use Grist's +1 to mill them all over for 15+ loyalty points, then just do her -5 every turn for 15+ damage.

Old video, but Bloomburrow set that just released has an incredible option for a board wipe in this deck: Swarmyard Massacre. You create two Squirrel Tokens, and then all creatures that are NOT Squirrels, Rats, Insects, or Spiders get -1/-1 until the end of turn for each creature of those types that you control. Great way to wipe out everyone's board except yours.

@aneleganthobo2715 2 года назад

Grist is one of my favorite commanders and I have won a lot of games with the deck. Some of my favorite cards you could include if you got them or can afford them are Scroll Rack, Beastmaster Ascension and Triumph of the Hoard. I found the tokens can easily overrun my opponents with just a few stats and being able to control what's on top of your deck helps fill your yard and board. Speaking of which you can even turn Grist itself into a potential threat with Luxior, Giada's Gift.

@@othellosmistake how about you realise this is an insect tribal and you notice that literally every creature is an insect? Mitch built the deck with that in mind, this wasn't his idea originally, it was a patreon's suggestion. So, to go with the whole THEME that they asked for, the mana elves are a dumb addition for insect TRIBAL, so you should just turn around and leave this conversation before you make yourself look dumber. TL:DR, Mitch was given a prompt for Grist insect tribal, so the decks got only insects for that literal reason.

Can legendary planeswalkers without "This planeswalker can be your commander." be your commander?

It can be your commander because in every zone except the battlefield, it counts as a legendary creature, not Planeswalker. The first line of text on the card says this. Since it isn't a Planeswalker in the command zone, it can be your commander

Hey, I want to make sure I'm understanding an interaction correctly. With the Sylvan Anthem in play, which states "whenever a green creature enters the battlefield under your control, scry 1."; when i use Grist's +1 ability that says "Create a 1/1 black and green insect creature token, then mill a card. If an insect card was milled this way, put a loyalty counter on Grist and repeat this process." If I hit an insect with the ability would I get the chance to scry before continuing on to mill the next card? Or does the planeswalker ability resolve until it misses and i get all of the scry triggers on the stack afterwards?

i love it but i hate that all it is is a "graveyard" deck so if your up against an opponent who is either exiling your graveyard or threatening to exile your graveyard, leaning on green to have artifact or enchantment removal could help alot. But then what do you do once not enough creatures are in your graveyard at all?

@victorbourguignon6897 2 года назад

the thing thats nice here is that even if your graveyard is dealt with, you are producing a massive amount of insects through grist. if the grave plan fails, you can fall back on an overrun strategy and still pound faces. you can now even use luxior to voltron all out. A syr konrad also means that even if your grave survives or gets exiled, the enemies still get chunked out quite a bit.
