Hey gang. I know it's not the most fanfare worthy pic to commemorate my 5th year on Instagram, but this is the best one I can offer, due to the ongoing pandemic and the untimely death of my father (June 7th 2020), everything keeps getting snowballed when you think you're done for the moment. So, what is this pic about? This is the Big Deck that I made many months ago out of Magic the Gathering cards that to me don't seem to fit the playability to any deck I have. An idea that was inspired by a YouTuber called Gameplays by Clonehead. Unfortunately, this deck has been played at all because of the current situation we're all in. So, because of the New Age format I created, a whole amount of cards here and those not shown will be sold. Some few I am willing to continue to keep. The problem is that other than Rares, Mythics, and some foils, I have more Commons and Uncommons and that seems to be harder for people to accept even with Pauper being popular. Since checking out sites like Channel Fireball, I'm not too entirely sure if they can accept all the cards that aren't just on their Buy List so there's that. So yeah, that's one of those plans. And once that's settled, perhaps I'll recreate another Big Deck but only with the cards legal for New Age. Also, I have a consistent urge to challenge MTG Muddstah with a New Age only Commander challenge. 😁 I hope everyone is still here and well, keep your loved ones close as best as you can, and thank you all for sticking around these past 5 years and here's to many more. #5thyear #mtg #tcg #magic #gathering #bigdeck #gameplaysbyclonehead #aegisangel #academydrake #azrasmokeshaper #abbotofkeralkeep #aggressivemammoth #aerialengineer #arcboundstinger #newage #newageformat #mtgmuddstah #commanderchallenge #stanleytools #professionalorganizer #cardsforsale #pauper #pioneer #modern #whilesupplieslast https://www.instagram.com/p/CG05oiLD169/?igshid=26phjm8yuroc

CommanderChallenge: Lorwyn/Morningtide Pt1 Poll
Hey all, how’s it going? So this weeks polls comes from a special place in my heart. The first “real” set I started playing Magic in, Lorwyn. Because Lorwyn/ Shadowmoor are one block and have so many creatures to choose from, this will be split up in about 3 parts. So these will be the next few polls.
Anyway, here’s the poll.
Polls will close on Sunday 10/8 @ 5pm  E.S.T and the deck will be posted on Tuesday 10/17
Below you can get a quick glimpse for who you’re voting for,
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $90 Like Chandra, Ashling is a firecracker. We have an early drop Commander who can wipe most boards for 6 mana. Or we can be aggressive with her and pump her to the point of lethal Damage.  
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $80
A Combat trick general in white. Brigid allows us to have an ebb-and-flow of the combat phase. We’re especially good against token decks too.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $110
This is where we take the mountain and toss it somewhere else. We’ll have big creatures, small creatures, and goats! All to throw at our opponent.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $150
We all like the large bodies and cannot lie. All my Treefolk brethren cannot lie. We have a fun ability where we can make the biggest, toughest dude, hit like a kitten. On the other side we can take the biggest tree and make them hit with the force of all gravity.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $120
Do you not have any friends? Are you lonely, and want to play Magic with a group of people? Do you find yourself to be a Super Villain? Welcome to non-conventional control magic. This is one of the most competitive decks we’ll see and with a budget one can slowly invest in.  “Commander isn’t about making friends. It’s about sending a message”               - Probably Gaddock Teeg
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $200 Woo 5 colors. We are going to be a heavy tribal deck here. With over 20 years of elemental creatures in magic. We have some pretty cool things to play!
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $140 Do you like playing only good cards? Do you want to make it so you can lock people out of drawing said cards? Do you want to make it so no one can every hurt your Commander? Welcome to the Mornsong. Like Gaddock, this isn’t a deck to make friends with. We’re going competitive, and we’re going to hit them fast and hard. Yay! for unconventional control! As always, thanks for reading and voting.  Until next time. Gryffnwing~ Oh tagging for this. @wolvenmonarch @iamthezubatman @captainsqueak @someonesomewhat @flavoracle

Spaghetti yesterday. Run 5k today #irunforcarbs With a rest day on Wednesday, it's nice to return from it with a nice and brisk run in the sun. In the midst of more sad news with each passing day, do something for yourself today. Give a hug. Go for a run. Stretch. Colour. Draw. Meditate. Find the stillness with each day to look inward.

You took a Blood Oath! Commander Challenge: CM17 Vampires, Licia.
Better late than never, right? 
Tumblr media
Here’s our Bad-ass General, Licia. With a $100 budget, we’ll have to see if our Blood Oath can do some things. If you just want to look at the deck. Well, you can see it here. Well, we must also discuss something. The deck is actually $100-$101, due to a card not having a price in TCG player. That’s Bruse Tarl, who ranges from $4-$5. So we did kind of fail.
Life Gain
Well one of the things that make Licia interesting, is the fact that she can relatively cost us 3 mana. That’s due to her firs effect. So we gain life, she costs less. It gets around the Commander Tax. So that’s neat. We have quite a number of cards that gain life. About 20 to be exact, or well make things have Life-gain. 
Tumblr media
One of the better life gain cards in the deck. This allows us to survive devastating blow, if we have to be defensive. 
Tumblr media
Listen, we are a 3 color “life-gain deck”. Sovereign can just out right win the game. There’s no reason not to play this and if it can help us.
Tumblr media
Simply put, double life gain is amazing...add double-strike, get Licia out no matter what?
Singular Removal
So we c an win through General damage. Sometime there’s only one pesky blocker. We have a total of 8 them.
Tumblr media
Gets through that pesky indestructible creatures.
Tumblr media
A “Vindicate” on a stick. This is a sort of “sorcery speed”, at only our turn, but we can indeed use this as a combat trick. Oh, we’ll have a ton of life to do this.
Want to Win with Commander Challenge
So we have a few ways of winning, but hey. Our Commander has the ability to win one handed. Oh, and another way.
Tumblr media
Like True Conviction, this gets us to the end zone with a pumped up Licia. 
Tumblr media
This just out right wins us the game against someone. Paired up with the above mentioned, we have a 5/4 Licia with double strike. Sometimes an opponent will let it through, because 10 Commander damage won’t out-right kill them. That’s where this comes in handy. It’s a one-shot that many people wouldn’t expect.
What to add for a larger budget?
Tumblr media
While a late game card, and in certain groups, fair too late to play. This is another Faith Mender. Yup, they stack. This is really for a slower version of the deck.
Tumblr media
Actually on curve with Licia (If we can’t get her to be cheaper). We’re an aggressive deck. This is a perfect addition to it. Also let’s that Infect strategy work because it gives trample. It’s also $20, so please invest in cards like these.
Tumblr media
I mean, give us indestructible. Also she on her own is aggressive enough to win in this deck. She’s also $30. Invest in her if you want her. In Conclusion Licia is a great aggressive Commander, who has a fun way of getting around Commander tax. If the budget were much larger, I’d go the route of making this a Voltron like deck. Having the wacky life-gain aspect makes for a slower, yet aggressive strategy. Overall if you’re looking for a Commander who makes you swear a blood oath. Pick up Licia in the new Commander 2017 product. As always, thanks for reading. Until next time. Gryffnwing~

#CommanderChallenge: Ixalan Legendary’s
Hello, and welcome to one of the only Magic the Gathering Polls that no one gives a shit about. I’m your host Morbidly Depressed. It’s been a full week since I did a poll and was late on delivering you content. Just like life, I’m a huge disappointment like that.  Ixalan’s been fully released since about a few days. As a whole, this set is shaping up to be pretty good. Great limited, and an overall slower standard. We’re not here to talk about that though. We’re here for a “Democratic” process. Your votes matter...because there isn’t an Electoral College to screw things up. I digress though. So this weeks poll is to vote on all seven Legendary creatures from this set. If you don’t need to know who/ what/ where they are. You can just vote here.
Polls will close on Sunday (9/24) at 5P. The Deck will be posted on 10/3.
For those of us who want to be informed on our candidates. Look below to see who represents your interests the best. 
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $150 Our mono-white Legendary Vampire. He’s an early drop commander. The effect requires you to attack with a Vampire (Himself, or more). You get ONE, token for the attack. Well, there aren’t a lot of mono-White Vampires, so to go about this deck, we’ll want to make this a super aggressive deck. Have some creatures that hit fast and hard, and give all of our creatures double strike as well.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $130
ANother early drop, but he’s no Sygg. Rather interesting is that he’s mono blue, which we can do in a Merfolk Deck. He does protect himself (and the board kind of) from targeted removal, which is pretty neat. We’re essentially going to have a tempo deck and just go back and forth attacking and countering. 
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $100 Well another three drop, cool. She does something Red likes, make mana. Half the time, we aren’t going to give her Gold to deal more damage. We’re going to be like an investment bank, and make sure our Captain can attack more than once a turn, and then just, well, give us more money. It pays to be a pirate. 
Tumblr media
Deck Price:$180
Bad-ass Grandma (or Aunt), is not only a general, but a pirate Lord. We can expect to see our previous General in this deck too. We will need to attack with a lot of creatures to just steal a card. But who cares? It’s plundering time!
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $200 So, yeah, Godzilla. We ramp, we hit fast, hell, we might attack once or twice in a turn. We’re going to want to just win off our superior might.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $120 So we have a general that tells us to play creatures, and we draw cards?! Sweet, our goal is to ramp and get a creature out until turn 4, then cast our general early and just make people rages as we draw out our deck. Did I mention her last ability is on ETB? Well, it does.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $250 This is a General that demands we only play the best life gain spells, and to make sure we can copy the effect numerous times...all the times. We gain life, and we destroy things. This is pretty sweet. Nothing is safe from our presence! Again, here’s where to vote. As always, thanks for reading and voting. Until next time. Gryffnwing~ Shout outs to people who I always tag. @wolvenmonarch @jolly-ob-saint-nixilis @iamthezubatman @magus-of-the-color-pie @someonesomewhat

#CommanderChallenge: Commander 2017 Wizards of the Command Zone?
Hey all, how’s it going? Late poll again? Yup, yup it is. So here we are, the final Commander 2017 Tribe. We have the Wizards. All of them are in the best colors for wizards, Grixis. So we have burn, ramp, counters, many many things.
Polls will close on Sunday, at 12am, e.s.t
If you don’t need any introduction, vote
here
.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $190 Our Face card, and not only that, she clones. Yes, we have to play Wizards, so it’s truly the Wizard tribal deck. Expect a Paradox in the deck.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $110 Ah, so do you like spells? Do you like playing spells again? The same spell, in a 99 card deck full of one of’s? You do? Expect big things, flashback, and more.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $150 This isn’t your average clone, it’s better. So now when ever we blink or recast our general. Well we get some pretty cool interactions. While not our Red/ Blue artifact general, we kinda get it. We can recover since even if we’re bounced, dead, etc. Well, as long as those cards have a cage counter on them, we still get to use them.  As always, thanks for reading and voting. Expect both Ramos and Mirri tomorrow. Thanks for your patience all. Until next time. Gryffnwing~ Tagging: @magus-of-the-will @theotherunicron4000 @anxiety-cannon @iamthezubatman

#CommanderChallenge: CM 17 Vampires
Well, we’re on the third out of the four decks. Now we’re onto one of the oldest, cruelest, deadliest tribes. I’m talking about Vampires. Solidify their spot in Mardu colors, we have been given three new generals...seems a bit short, since the other tribes got more.  Just letting you know:
Polls will close this Sunday, at 12am E.S.T!
Anyway, you can vote here.
You can read more if you want to see the generals.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $160 The first of the Innistrad Vampire line, Edgar Markov was trying to save his plane, instead he only changed the pecking order. Edgar sits on his throne and makes us an army. We’re going to be sitting with a mid range deck, and while many of our creatures will be Vampires, there will be a few surprise creatures.  While we rule on the throne, we must take precautions of our enemies making trouble. Let us ask what our council will do?
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $100 Life gain is never really a popular theme. In Commander, 40 life gets us very far. Though, with Licia, it’s like a tribute to her. Our goal is to gain a massive amount of life every turn, to make sure we can get Licia out. Expect some counter plays, and life gain fun. We’re going to want to give Licia here a chance to grow big. While her deck screams Voltron, I’m going to be steering away from that. We’re going to have some alt-wincons, and some juicy life control cards.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $140 In Commander, we want to be the winner, the one on the throne. Mathas says a different thing. Our goal with Mathas is to not just win the throne, but to make sure those who are on it, get eliminated. Expect to be good at politics, because we’re taking you down to the Commander Convention! As always, thanks for reading. Vote for favorites! Until next time. Gryffnwing~ Tagging; @someonesomewhat @wolvenmonarch @of-the-grand-chorus @anxiety-cannon @odric-master-swagtician

#CommanderChallenge Poll: Commander 2017 Dragons
Hey all, back at it again with the Late poll posting! This weeks polls is for the new Commander 2017 Dragons.Before we get started:
Polls will close this Sunday at 12am E.S.T.
You can vote here. Below is a brief description of what the generals do, and how I might build the deck.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $180 The Ur-Dragon, what was deemed to be the creation of all Dragons across the multi-verse. At a whopping nine mana, one could say that it’s a whopper of a creature. Either on the field or chilling in the Command Zone, this deck screams Dragon tribal. Our Goal is to get them out as early as possible, and swing in. The fact that the Ur-Dragon’s ability doesn’t just bring out Dragons is quite something. I expect to see some Dragons from Fate Reforged showing up.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $160 Dragons? Spirits? or just good ol’ politics? So O-kagachi is so flavorful, and can be built many ways. We have to tribes to choose from, or we can go down the political road and make sure no one ever hits us. If they do, well, we just claim something of theirs.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $135
Cat Dragon? Yup, Cat dragon. While Jund has many powerful Commanders, none have ever produced such cute tokens! Expect a lot of token making, token copying effects. We also have some new cards that help buff cats as well! We’re going to be a very aggressive deck.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $150 Technically a five color general, we have a fan favorite theme, +1/+1 counters. Expect many alternate win conditions and some good ol’ Legendary’s to appear in the deck. As always, thanks for reading. Over the next four weeks each poll will be based on the Commander 2017 line up. So next weeks poll will be Cats! Tagging to spread the word of Dragons! @wolvenmonarch @theotherunicron4000 @magus-of-the-will @magus-of-the-color-pie Thanks as always. Gryffnwing~

Commander Challenge: Lorwyn Poll winner!
So this poll can be defined as “Anyone’s game”, while there was a constant at the top, almost everyone else was catching up. Though there always has to be a winner.
Tumblr media
Well....that’s a tie. Ok so it’s essentially a blind coin toss.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Congrats to the winner! Let us see what a $140 budget can do for us. Since I’m posting all the old decks that were owed this week. A new poll will be up some time tomorrow. See this deck on October 16th! Happy games all. Until next time. Gryffnwing~ Tagging the Lorwyn Lore Master @flavoracle

CommanderChallenge Poll CM17: Cat’s outta the Bag now!
I am so so sorry for the late post. I had this wonderful dream where I did things right and on time!
I’ll put the time restriction here. Polls will close on Sunday, August 27th, at 12pm! (That’s High-newn!)
We continue on my downward spiral of running out of ideas, yet riding the hype of a recent product.
So with that said, we have cats. They big, they furry, and they like weapons? Or roaring, no idea what Wizards end goal was to be. I just love them all.
You can vote   here
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $100
What could be better than a Giant growth every turn? How about the ability to make it so that cat even bigger! Flavor wise, we want this deck to do one thing. Some an army of Cats. With Amonkhet giving us some good cat lords, and Lorwyn having Changlings. I can see us going wide while having fun.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $80 “And I will form the head!”. Balan is Voltron, pure and simple. We don’t have a need to make him cat tribal, because he doesn’t rely on it. With our budget, we limit ourselves with what equipment can be played. So we aren’t going to get all five swords and a batterskull on him. Instead we’re going to want to see what other means we can do to make us hit hard.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $150
Ah, my sweet sweet duelist. I’ve missed you. Mirri can be an interesting Commander. Yes, Voltron style plays make use of her  abilities. Though I think she’s a general that not only does the hard work, but leads an army to victory. I’m going to try and give this deck a lot of flavor, if she wins. Expect to see some cards from Kaladesh, and some old Weatherlight goodies too.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $90. “Naz Naz Naaa Naaz naz” I tried doing Seven Nation army..but I failed, because you can’t hear me beat. Again, they really pushed us for an Equipment heavy strategy. Well, I mean we don’t have to only have him equipped with things. Nazahn wants each creature equipped and swinging. Which is a nice break from typical Voltron strategies. We’re going to be going wide with Tokens, and playing not only his Hmmer, but a certain new equipment as well. As always, thanks for reading.  Tomorrow Melek gets posted. I really enjoyed working with the Weird Wizard! Until next time folks. Gryffnwing~ Tagging for them votes. @wolvenmonarch @hazoretspartyfavors @anxiety-cannon @chelsea-beleren-vess

Commander Challenge: Maze Runners, Allied-color Ver.
Hey all, this was suggested by @iamthezubatman So go give them a follow for this idea. Now yes, I’m being cheap. This weeks poll is 5 out of then 10 Maze Runners. I know many people have both an allied Guild, and enemy Guild that they relate too. I know I do. So for all of those who love the allied colored Runners, here ya go.  Also, we’re going back to the roots of the Commander Challenge. No deck is above $100. We have one at exactly $100, but that’s it. We’re going to have some bamf decks for a good price. I hope you all enjoy. You can vote here. Click for more to see the generals and a bit about the plans for them.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $80 I think Jace was in love with her. Well if you didn’t know, this was not her original effect...I won’t go into that. We’re going to be a “Token Tribal” deck. Emmara herself makes them powerful blockers, but we’re going to need some help to have our tokens hit harder, faster, cooler...Perhaps she’ll meet a certain Innistrad Marshal?
Tumblr media
Deck Price $100 The only general this week with a $100. Now red/ black is my jam. Exava here embodies the the red reckless style, and the black ambition style. Alll of our creatures are going to hit hard, fast, and scream with laughter. Because remember kids. You can’t spell slaughter, without laughter. Many early drom creatures, with a great removal package.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $75
Jace’s under-paid babysitter. If you like abusing her abilities and telling people “No”. Well we will have them ‘blinking’ into despair. Also, we might be a very pacifist deck.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $90 Oh boy, mill! I mean, he does it. In a format where Eldritch titans and graveyard plays are huge. Well, we’re going to need a deck that can capitalize on his ability. Oh, we’ll resonate with him of course, but we’ll need some exili-ent abilities.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $70 
Two heads are better than one. Though they will punish you for flashy plays. Thar here is what I like to call “Threat outside of the hand”. What this means is...people will target you. Why? Because your general is automatically a threat. Our goal is to play utility creatures and only cast spells before Thar hits field. If we cast after him, we have to make sure there is a need to do so. As always, thank you so much for reading, and voting. Until the next poll. Gryffnwing Tagging for the Maze: @jolly-ob-saint-nixilis @wolvenmonarch @circlesmadeofglass @commandertheory

#Commander Challenge Poll: Maze Runners, Enemy Color.
Again, thank @iamthezubatman for the suggestion. I know it might seem like a cop-out to separate the guilds, but I felt it would give people the chance to at least see more than “one winner”. Also it’s easier to do allied/ enemy pairings with such a large set. Now if you don’t need an introduction to the Commanders. You can vote right here.
Polls will close on Sunday, 12 am, E.S.T. I know this gives less time, but it should give enough time to get everyone time to vote.
Below is going to be each general, their deck price, and what ideas I have for them.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $135 Deep in the Izzet labs, the Goblins tinkered and laughed. As the Maze was announced, their tinkering paid off. Melek was made for this race. At such a high CMC, we’re going to want a low curve deck, that allows for early game interaction. Melek doesn’t let us cast these spells for free, and he gives information to our opponents; that can hurt us. For his last ability, we’re going wo want to have some maddening spells to get copied. So perhaps we’ll see some of the best red board wipes to see play. I’m looking at having the creature base similar to The Locust God, where prowess is on many of our creatures. Also, we’re going to want a bit of a fort with this deck. No point in having a cool general, if we’re going to die turn 4.
Tumblr media
Deck Prce $90
I like playing my General. I mean, that’s the point of the format. To have a creature who not only defines your deck, but who can lead your creatures to battle. Here’s the thing, isn’t Commander tax annoying? I mean, we pay a %10 increase on many Commanders. Tajic has an offshore account. He can’t die, therefore he cannot charge us those taxes. We’re going to have an equipment sub-theme, and a large token theme. I honestly like his second ability, which just makes him look like an anime character. “My friends are with me, so I become stronger!”
Tumblr media
Deck Price $150 The Orzhov give and take. Generally they take much more than what they give. They are essentially the Pawn-Stars of Ravnica. Teysa is a Ghost whisper, and is damn well annoyed by it... This version of Teysa is essentially built as a pillowfort deck. While the deck might have some underlying themes. I really want to focus on some Spirit, and Undead tribal stuff. Her deck price is up there, because black/white has issues with mana, and I want to nip those in the bud.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $80 Reduce waste, re-use the waste, recycle the bones of the enemy. Varolz is pretty straight forward. We want our guys in the Graveyard, and we want to make our General stronger. He sort of builds like a Grave-yard themed coltron commander. We have plenty of new cards that can not only make him stronger, but to see him stick on the field.
Tumblr media
Deck Price $70
Oh how many cards use tokens? Plenty actually. Now unfortunately he doesn’t affect the newest mechanic, Energy Counters, but I’m sure the deck will still play with a few cards. The deck will be a hodge-podge of cards. We’re going to have creatures with counters, artifacts that use counters to make things. We’re going to experiment! As always thanks for reading, and voting. Until the next time. Gryffnwing~ Tagging to rep your guilds. @wolvenmonarch @simic-initiate @commandtower-solring-go @theotherunicron4000

#CommanderChallenge Poll: It’s a Conspiracy! Pt1
Hey all, you know what hasn’t been milked yet for my weekly ideas?
“No, what?”
Glad you asked. I haven’t touched the Conspiracy Legendary creatures yet.
���But you did Queen Marchesa!”
Yes, but she wasn’t in a poll...at least I don’t think so. Any who, I’m doing the first Conspiracy Legends, and Edric. Who actually belongs to the plane of Fiora.
So here’s the poll if you don’t need a refresher course on them.
View below if you want to read up on them.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $175
Before she was a Queen, Marchesa was a master politician...or at least great at black-mailing them. Now i love Grixis colors for generals. Firstly it’s a great control package, but Marchesa is a bit different. She wants you to play creatures. She’ll have a package of super-spies to help your opponents off the Throne. Perhaps she’ll have an entourage of powerful spell casters with her. Remember, to be a Queen, you need some powerful subjects.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $100
Muzzio was a  scholar of sorts on Fiora. Marchesa saw that as a threat. No idea if he’s dead, but still. With Muzzio as your general. You’ll be taking your opponents to Fiora University. Wait doesn’t that make it F.U?” I’m glad you got it. We’re going to learn how to take our crafting skills to the next level. So let’s take everything from Kaladesh...that’s in blue.
Tumblr media
Deck Price: $110 Ah, Brago, a Ghost King. I mean if that isn’t American politics right there.... Anyway, Brago likes us to blink. Why? Well that’s because we want our opponent to blink and see a really large field. We’re going to be like rabbits with this deck. One creature will turn into many. Or Imma abuse the hell out of ETB effects....I mean that’s the normal thing though.

Deck Price: $90
I remember when Edric first came out. While Marchesa might be a politician....Edric is a master of spies. He’ll help us get a clue as to how our future holds. Not only that, but we’ll skulk our way into learn our opponents secrets. I mean my puns are flawless here.

Deck Price: $125
Do not pass go, do not collect $200 dollars.
“You missed a pun with his deck price”
I know. Grenzo here will take our prison like graveyard...wait are we saving people from a death sentence then? Well either case. We’re playing with some of the coolest black and red creatures we can find, or we will also have some neat counter themes here. Expect a full on riot when Grenzo hits the field.

Deck Price: $75
What more could we ask for? We have card draw, ramp, and a big body on a three drop. We are asking our opponents for Parley. We wish for us to not fight. Well, we won’t fight them, but if they hit us. Well they should expect their battleships to sink. We are protect by nature, and Selvala won’t pull any punches either. As always thanks for reading. Tag your friends with who you want to win. Or just to see someone else to not win! Until the next poll.
