Vaevictus Asmadi the Dire is all about those top decks ... not just your top decks but everyone's' top decks. This commander is a little bit of chaos and a lot of power. I'm excited to explore a little bit of tokens, a little bit of lands matter, and a whole lot of huge creatures. I hope you are as excited about the M19 elder dragons as I am. More deck techs to come!

random fact: Vae Victis in latin means "woe to the vanquished"

@raze667 6 лет назад

I still have fond memories of Kain shouting it as he dispatched enemies in Blood Omen. :D

@Leo_0314 5 лет назад

I'm glad someone else knows lol, I laughed so hard when I read this card's name

@mathewflaherty4712 6 лет назад

Yes. Thank you so much. I just played my poorly brewed one yesterday. So fun. Loving him so far.

@Acraviotot 6 лет назад

Man, you always do Deck Techs on Commanders that I either have or Im interested in building. Great video, Vaevictis will helm my jund land deck as soon as it comes out (Replacing Xira Arien.) Destroying annoying permanents while sacrificing my Drownyard Temple seems pretty good.

@jingitaxias8461 5 лет назад

Wow. What a great comment. He looks like a big chicken You quoted ATHF Thanks for being awesome :)

@TheJPKaram 6 лет назад

Great video love the land approach

@DrukenReaps 6 лет назад

We are getting closer to having enough elders for elder tribal! Also both 'god' and 'elder' are creature types, maybe we can get an elder god at some point :D

@efuii 6 лет назад

We have. They're called Eldrazi.

@DrukenReaps 6 лет назад

Those certainly fit the theme of things like Cthulhu but they only fit the theme :P

@Tjlo1339 6 лет назад

Looks like a fun deck! Great vid!

@geekmp3 6 лет назад

This is absolute gold!

@AffinityForCommander 6 лет назад

Some really cool ideas here! I might have to try this out!

@fattimiv 6 лет назад

This looks hilariously fun!

@w00dm31st3r 6 лет назад

I didn't think much of Asmadi, but this deck tech makes me want to try it out.

@ethanertl5021 6 лет назад

I would love to see some videos of you playing magic!!

@roofied_galahad1675 6 лет назад

Can't wait for you to do Arcades, the Strategist

@Ghaespar 6 лет назад

Great video as usual!! When my copy arrives, and I get him together, be ready to check it out ;)

@kaisburg2450 6 лет назад

Oh, it's the Hanna, Ship's Navigator background music again. Missed it for a while. Left a like for nostalgia of the very first Jumbo Commander video I ever watched.

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

I think it's awesome that you remember old music! I like this one I think it'll serve M19 well. But I have learned the the background music cannot please anyone/everyone :)

@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299 6 лет назад

I like that you picked Vaevictus Asmadi feels like a nice left field choice since it seems like lots of people want Arcades, but that deck seems a little too simple (LOL can't wait to make a wall deck). I can't wait to see what you do with Chromium, the T-1000 of dragons or even Nico Bolas flipwalker; I love that there is another flipwalker but that pre-order price tag, ouch! ;)

@ethanboltz8048 6 лет назад

Mr. Mammuthus Africanavus yeah, that price tag is also hyped by standard too. A 4 mana 4/4 flyer that gives you basically card advantage is bonkers... but i can't wait to make my nicol bolas deck in edh with him too

@McDodgerMan 6 лет назад

You've come so far Jumbo, last time you couldn't even pronounce Vaevictus and now you're deck teching him.

@Wannerzz 6 лет назад

Just building this, great tech - I think Catacomb Sifter has legs as a big scry trigger!

@PlotwistInc 5 лет назад

Wasitora doesn't just give you a token... no, sir. Wasitora gives you THE CUTEST WIDDLE KITTY MONSTER TOKEN THAT HAS EVER GRACED TO FRONT PANEL OF A MAGIC CARD EVAR!!! This world needs more cat dragons x3

@Arcdemon44 6 лет назад

So the demon love child of chaos warp and Etali, seems fun

@dennisdubeler5950 6 лет назад

I thought you would do this. Pseudo-Chaos Warp is superb and grindy.

@jtizzle450 6 лет назад

Primal surge is great and I have personally seen Lurking Predators win quite a few games of MTG in my day - very powerful card. If we're doing lands matter I can't help but want to put Dakmoor Salvage in there too! I'm torn between re-buidling the Ur-Dragon or building a Baevictis - i'll keep you informed :)

@stephenhousman6975 6 лет назад

Jund lantern control edh sounds interesting 1 problem though no academy ruins although you do get glissa the traitor to get your artifacts back.

@serafimb2319 6 лет назад

It would be so cool if the next episode of gameknights would be actual Elder Dragon Highlander! Josh with a build of Arcades, and you would be invited to play Vaevictis :D Maybe jimmy would have a cycling/discarding-themed deck of chromium. And some fifth guest with the one and only nicol bolas

@santuli_91 6 лет назад

Arcades is the dragon I want to build around...but this may have convinced me to retool my Omnath Locus of Rage deck into Vaevictus + All Jund 'Land Matters' Commanders deck...I really enjoy playing land matters stuff..

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

I do too! I am torn because I love my sultai lands matter deck .... but red brings so much to the table.

@santuli_91 6 лет назад

Oooh, who helms your Sultai deck?? But I do really love getting rewarded for just playing lands. Or getting to play quirky little lands (where else would I play Ghost Town than with Omnath?). And red does bring a certain amount of...aggressiveness to the table.

@ameenpirasteh333 6 лет назад

Considered doing jund dragon tribal since I don’t want multiple 5 color deck (already have jodah walkers). But the landfall aspect is very desirable. Very tempted to do that, event though I have multiple landfall decks haha.

@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299 6 лет назад

I have 2 5 colour decks: Spirits and 5 colour Dragon; 5 colour Dragon is AMAZING though! LOL My Ur Dragon has taken people out with a single Tainted Strike, or got permanent attack phases, putting out multiple lands and dragons every attack phase, the deck just quickly snowballs. 5 colours just seems to be super flexible and is not that hard as it seems to make:P

@ameenpirasteh333 6 лет назад

Mr. Mammuthus Africanavus I actually have an ur dragon deck now. I just want to have a variety of deck colors. But I do agree he is a better dragon commander. Vavictus would help you cheat in big dragons though

@owenriley190 6 лет назад

Ameen Pirasteh if you're talking jund dragons, karrthus tyrant of jund is sweet

@ameenpirasteh333 6 лет назад

Owen Riley I agree. He is awesome. But he doesn’t cheat the dragons into play, which could be helpful. I also only use foil commanders, and he is not a reasonably priced one :(.

@nicktaylor3245 6 лет назад

Can you do Goreclaw or Nicol Bolas, the Ravager vorthos? They each sound like very fun decks in their own right.

@freya002YT 6 лет назад

He has done nicol bolas

@shadora1d3r 6 лет назад

You think you can do one on chromium the mutable? Don't know where to start.

@kortcaldwell3642 6 лет назад

I'm a huge fan of the token strategy, and Butcher of Malakir adds so much value to sac'ing tokens. Plus it's a creature so his 5BB casting cost is nothing when you can cheat it out

@danduchene7385 3 года назад

Built this deck almost to the exact spec of this video. It shreds opponents when it gets rolling. Sometimes you just keep topdecking big creatures though

@flourish7759 6 лет назад

You probably are already making wall tribal with the elder dragon but might I intrigue you with sai master thopterist?

@CaptBackwards 5 лет назад

I would tech in possibity storm. Chaos. Much chaos

@danduchene7385 5 лет назад

I really enjoy this deck and have built it exactly as in video from my own cards despite scroll rack and a couple others.... But I keep getting land hosed. I don't know why but every time I play it I am always lacking in Mana department. I have even tried altering it to have 10 Mana ramp cards with 40 lands. Any advice?

@AhranMaoDante 6 лет назад

Library of Leng might be really good in the deck when used with Greater Good. Sac something big, draw a bunch of cards, then discard what you want to cheat into play, to the top of your deck. Would work better with other discard effects, preferably that hit the opponent in some way, like Malfegor.

@theRealTyanStrategy 6 лет назад

I love the interaction of the cards in this deck. It is so interesting

@dboeify 6 лет назад

How did you not mention aid from the cowl? Rites of belzenlok seems good here too

@WayneAnonymous 6 лет назад

WE WANT YOU TO BUILD A WALL!!!! Jokes aside, an Arcades deck tech would be amazing.

@GuardianAngelEatos 6 лет назад

I'm liking this new music! What is it?

@metroguevania 6 лет назад

Would you have any updates for this from c18?

@Dark-Hound 6 лет назад

Could you list a budget version of this?

@54m0h7 6 лет назад

I feel like the other dragons are getting a lot more attention, but these guy does seem like fun. I just opened one and I'm so making a deck. :P

@serafimb2319 6 лет назад

What is that mono-black-good-stuff-looking art at 19:02?

@DrFlorent 4 года назад

I would really like to make a Vaevictis deck, but I really can't afford the permanents recommended here to manipulate the top of my library like Divining Top, Sylvan Library or Scroll Rack. Are there any budget options that people might suggest to use instead?

@sunstrid3r44 3 года назад

I know this is a little to late, but i like to jam things like aid from the cowl, haunted crossroads and a lot of monarch cards because if i cant manipulate the top of my deck i just try to go deeper and draw into more gas or put important things from my gy into the top Scry is also good, things like lifecrafters bestiary can help a lot But i must say that if you build the deck with a good ratio of permanents you will almost never fail to find something (id recomend a lot of ramp based on permanents like enchantments, 1 and 2 cmc dorks and rocks, and etb ramp like wood elves and farhaven elf)

@skylerward9449 6 лет назад

Sneak attack would be really sick. Slam down a massive creature and the sacrifice it for value after attacking.

@danmiller2873 6 лет назад

Surprised about the exclusion of Stolen Strategy from Battlebond. Seems to have a lot of crossover synergy with your library manipulation theme towards the beginning of your video.

@PerhapsOOTMM 6 лет назад

As soon as he was spoiled, I built an EDH deck around him. He's so fucking cool.

@KBgamer2010 6 лет назад

Time to Jund them out

@xakuyer 6 лет назад

Yes, you mentionned Mazirek, +1/+1 counters for dayyyyyyyys

@michaelatbarnett 6 лет назад

Hey DJ. Saw you over on the Command Zone and came over to check the channel out. Really fun first video to watch! Love the ideas, spirit and energy you bring! No idea if you'd see this or not, but was wondering if you'd have any thoughts on Selvala 2.0 and Sunbird's Invocation in a deck for our new Jund Elder? Big mana, fun flips? I've yet to find a great home for either of them in a more casual setting - Drana 1.0, Alesha and Sigarda, Heron's Grace all are focused elsewhere. I've fiddled with Xenagod but never loved the deck, so wondering if Jund could be the answer? Meld my black heart and Gruul soul?

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Glad to have you! This could be a really good fit. There needs to be a lot of mana in these big decks. Selvala is that big mana but it's a little bit tricky because it requires you to jump through a few hoops to get it. I think this could be the commander for you ... although Xenagod may be strong so what does black bring to the table beside the commander? The deck I built was a little heavy on the green; so ramp and balance will be key. GOOD LUCK BREWING! Sounds fun.

@michaelatbarnett 6 лет назад

Jumbo Commander Thanks for the reply! And trying to figure out what Black offers over Gruul for the deck I'm trying to build is a great line of thought. Loved the first video here and looking forward to watching the Najeela one after work!

@christianwissinger3688 6 лет назад

Yay! Dragon!

@jeanmarais337 6 лет назад

I'm interested in when you said your cat dragon deck wasn't working. Step me through your process for discarding a deck idea. I have trouble stopping trying to make Kraj work.

@heavyweaponsguy4498 5 лет назад

have you tried Lens of Clarity with this?

@benrogers7935 6 лет назад

What about Dragon Broodmother or Utvara Hellkite for more tokens

@czairkolmoslink5952 6 лет назад

What you think about putting him a Prossh deck?

@matthewferrill1985 6 лет назад

You kind of alluded to it but Asmadi is really awesome because you can hit powerful utility lands from your opponents. Goodbye Cabal Coffers, Maze of Ith, and Gae’s Cradle. That in my opinion is what makes this dragon a Jund EDH staple.

@KBgamer2010 6 лет назад

So Jumbo...did you hear about commander 2018 having a Jund lands matter deck?

@lachlanellwood2185 6 лет назад

Pls do more 5 colour deck techs

@gustavomartinsdesouza5548 6 лет назад

I will just do a Devour Tribal to sacrifice tokens and flip things that eats the other tokens and generate more tokens uhul!

@josharnold6546 5 лет назад

I don't run mortuary mire i run volrath's stronghold its an effect you pay for but its reusable and does everything you want which is basically turns vaevictus asmadi the dire into vaevictus asmadi the recycler giving me a great graveyard strategy the only problem is its pricetag but honestly its able to synergize so well it is worth it

@TheGittlebass 6 лет назад

kresh the blood braided would be fantastic in this build

@SlifertheCanadian 6 лет назад

Well judging from the Jund "lands" C18, Vaevictis Asmadi might just be the best Jund Lands Commander!

@freya002YT 6 лет назад

Mogg war marshal seems like a good card in this deck

@janetlapham3919 6 лет назад

dragonlair spider is a good way to get things to sacrifice.

@rayward623 6 лет назад

Check out Jolt's Wasitora deck. It's pretty awesome.

@ImaginationHobbies 6 лет назад

i know its an instant but worldly tutor seems good

@oscarfogelstrom8363 6 лет назад

How would you make this deck cheaper?

@JohnQueSacc 6 лет назад

Primal Surge is the reason my Animar deck is all permanents 👍

@maxkarson9656 6 лет назад

I would love to see a chromium commander

@johnevans6629 6 лет назад

This could be great with kresh the bloodbraided

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Totally! An awesome card with some synergies.

@Jacqustic 6 лет назад

You REALLY don't want to cast Primal Surge without a spell that can stop it. Specifically - combat tricks. A nice suite of protection/removal/evasion to seal the deal.

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Or haste :D

@Jacqustic 6 лет назад

Jumbo Commander true but the blowout would be absolute. I would run Heroic Intervention Relentless Assault and Roar of Challenge.

@StrongButAwkward 6 лет назад

Primal Surge basically reads "Win the game unless someone responds with a Containment Priest" in an all permanent deck.

@lukasbubliauskas 6 лет назад

What about Kresh?! He can go great with Vaevictis’ destroy target permanent ability! Cause if you destroy creatures, you can get a million counters on Kresh, and then... you can use Xenagos (God of Revels), to double Kresh’s power for more damage to win! 🤘

@travisbrandt8663 6 лет назад

This deck would be good with muldrotha. Even if he is blue. So maybe a commander with all four

@insomniackitty9397 6 лет назад

you know i wish there was a card in magic similar to greaves but gave the creature -2/-0 or something, like haste and protection for the cost of a bit of power, maybe even haste indestructible and maybe -3/-0 so we can play commanders like this for a bit more fun and have people slightly more okay with being attacked by a giant dragon...... (also in this case so we can attack twice as often to get more triggers)

@insomniackitty9397 6 лет назад

basically i want more op cards with downsides so when you have decks that dont care about the downside it's a super powerful card but like if you put it in another deck maybe it's not so good, less lightning greaves, more temporal extortion (black extra turn spell at the cost of half your life)

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

That's a cool idea. It has some more complicated give and take.

@VonhintenxD 6 лет назад

u have the old Vaevictis Asmadi in your Decklist

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

I made the decklist before the new card was loaded into the system so make sure to swap that out ... or keep it in for style points :)

@robertsudhoff6033 6 лет назад

Please do a commander deck over the new Nicol Bolas

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

He's so cool. I'm wondering if it'd just be grixis goodstuff or if Bolas can give me a sort of theme to build around. Maybe discard?

@robertsudhoff6033 6 лет назад

Jumbo Commander my first thought was just janky grixis good stuff. Big and flashy fun. Kind of a spell heavy deck since that’s kind of his thing. I think discard control could work but does he enable that enough by just discarding a card when he enters. Deadeye could go well but you lack a lot of blinks without white.

@dtopa7524 6 лет назад

More like Vaevictis Basmati, the Fryer !!

@ethanwebb5334 6 лет назад

I’m surprised that Aid from the Cowl was never mentioned.

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Thanks for suggesting it! I have had a little trouble with always triggering revolt but this seems like the type of deck to really take advantage of it.

@fieldy409 6 лет назад

Kinda looks like Prossh would be worth putting in this even if he isnt your commander, six tokens to chaos warp for better stuff wouldnt be bad.

@freezacold187 5 лет назад

fieldy409 the problem with Prossh is that you could topdeck him.

@NinurtahRS 6 лет назад

I feel like youve missed a lot of etb synergy with this. Purphoros is an auto include, imo. Other similar things, artifact and creature etb, landfall...

@averyodowd6448 6 лет назад

Primal Surge + Fires of Yavimaya

@averyodowd6448 6 лет назад

Also Any deck that wants to run Aggravated Assault wants Grand Warlord Radha. It's just simple science.

@Bladezeromus 6 лет назад

I'm brewing this guy as a group hug deck

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

The politics of this dragon are wonderful! I always see White and Blue (Jeskai and Bant) in group hug decks which will make this one SUPER interesting. Way to brew!

@Bladezeromus 6 лет назад

Jumbo Commander You know it. Torment of Hailfire, Treacherous Terrain, Collective Voyage, Indomitable Creativity, Vicious Shadows, Warp World, Great Aurora... my playgroup will not know if they should love me or strangle me.

@ethanboltz8048 6 лет назад

Give. Me. My. Wall. Tribal!

@mynameisbub97 6 лет назад

Would anyone else be interested in seeing all of the upgraded of elder dragon deck techs?

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

The naya one feels uninspired to me but I'm really excited about the others!

@W4llh4k 6 лет назад

@jumbocommander make the brawl version or as many call it mini-commander

@yannaischrire7327 6 лет назад

arcades the strategist please!

@corvoattano6765 6 лет назад

Yo you should do Nicol Bolas next also first

@d9_1056 6 лет назад

Edgy Umbra i think the new bolas is a perfect example of "good stuff". I feel like there isn't enough there to build a deck around him. Just another grixis deck.

@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299 6 лет назад

Nicol Bolas flipwalker looks sick as a 99 but as the commander...

@d9_1056 6 лет назад

Mr. Mammuthus Africanavus for sure. I've been mind brewing a Kess wheel deck. He'd be cool in there if his price drops.

@corvoattano6765 6 лет назад

His ETB discard to run a use everyones grave strat

@vinceinman9666 6 лет назад

I still feel prossh is the strongest lands matter general in jund because of his cast trigger. You'll have tons of lands, why not get enough tokens to fuel your commander and have a strong synergy deck that works without him? This new dragon does seem good, but I still prefer prossh for the general with the jund lands

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Prosh is just a more powerful card so he would do a solid job of supporting a lot of strategies.

@voltcorp 6 лет назад

I thought Sylvan Library was banned in EDH.

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Nope! You should play it, it's so much fun.

@PengusKhan 6 лет назад

Wah-ay Wictus=Vae Victis=Vaevictis

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Oh yeah, I read that online somewhere. I think I've used the "V" sound so often I'll never be able to say it correctly.

@PengusKhan 6 лет назад

Jumbo Commander no worries man Latins are really weird language. That's one of the few things I do know about it though, the letter v is pronounced like a w

@d9_1056 6 лет назад

I was kind of let down by the legendaries in this set. Arcades is cool, but im sure most of the builds are going to look the same.

@GuardianAngelEatos 6 лет назад

Yeah same here. I'm not a fan of any of the new Elder dragons, which is a shame because two of them are in color combinations that I love but don't have a commander yet that I like.

@elijahmthompson2313 6 лет назад

BUILD THAT WALL! BUILD THAT WALL!

@kaisburg2450 6 лет назад

I find the legendaries in this set to be more fit for the 99. And not just because they're kinda boring as commander's but because they're actually kinda good in EDH in other, smaller ways.

@PhoenixXZY 6 лет назад

Chronium is my favorite elder dragon from the new set, basically because he is such a hard target to get rid of (and will be a control finisher in the standard format), I can see how he wouldn't make a great commander tho. He is finding a slot in my esper Sen Triplets deck for sure tho.

@Maxaphorical 6 лет назад

Jumbo! The Commander in the Decklist is the wrong one! I imported it to Xmage and had to play with the wrong commander!

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

Hahah, sorry that must have been funny. I made the deck so early the decckbuilder didn't have the newest set available in the database so I had to use a stand-in.

@Maxaphorical 6 лет назад

oh lol. I ended up winning anyway. One of the other players cast Collective Voyage, and I was much better set up to use the extra mana than anyone else. Belzenlok is ridiculous card advantage - I got him bounced a few times and always drew at least 4 cards. Also assembled the 3 land matter creatures, which was awesome! Really sweet deck! Going through it now to get the budget down a bit. Thanks for the reply!

@plaguedr8831 6 лет назад

Chromium please!

@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299 6 лет назад

Agreed, the T-1000 of dragons!

@plaguedr8831 6 лет назад

Mr. Mammuthus Africanavus im considering building him twice. One typical esper control, and one infect... Ever been cut by aluminum foil?!?!

@leSmokySmoke 6 лет назад

what happened to tappedout links....

@Yakmage 6 лет назад

Since your doing some token and sac shenanigans, why not play the awesomeness that is krav. Definately the best of his pair. He draws, gains, and beats down.

@JumboCommander 6 лет назад

I think Krav is so cool, it's a shame that you wouldn't be able to play his partner. It's crazy that he's good enough without her.

@Yakmage 6 лет назад

Jumbo Commander I put him in 3 of my decks and her in 1
