My favorite combo is Krark-Clan Ironworks scrap trawler and myr retriever plus other junk for infinite whatever you want

I'm going to level with you, at the end of the day the legendary goober you slap on the side of your board is there for Color and to be an easily accessible piece to enable, complement or expedite your gameplan, whichever it may be: if you wanna go wide with Goblins but not have Krenko helm your deck it's totally fine, but this chase to be the first person ever to play and win a game with a Legendary card forgotten by God just so you can be "not like other players" is delusional behaviour, trying to stick out at your LGS as much as you can and implicitly belittling other players as being part of the mass for having sensible picks. Besides, even a top 100 on EDHREC commander can still be a new experience for you to play even if someone else has seen that card a billion times: I've never played Angel tribal for example, for me personally a Giada deck would be a new experience even if die-hard EDH players and/or Angel players have seen that card in action ad nauseam. The deckbuilding is just a part of the game, actually playing it and making decisions on the spot is the biggest part of it and even if your deck is made of bog standard pieces for whatever playstyle you're going for, the unique situations you'll find yourself in will most likely be different everytime and demand you strategize differently, that's the beauty of a cardgame.

I fuck with this deck heavy, definetly going to try it.

Atogatog is so cool

Never played a true combo deck, I kinda wanna do it one day. Especially one built around a single alternate wincon, that would be so fun! (I have a poison deck but that doesn't count)

My most blue player turn deck is my yorion flicker deck where the few times I played it against other people I always had to think about which way to let my permanents reenter and how to use them for minutes at a time.

i used to like brewing penny dreadful bad combo decks and barren glory is always something I've tried to make work to no avail. so funny you got it to work with such old cards!

Love this combo, I actually built an Atogatog deck with Barren Glory about three years ago, and it was so janky but so worth it. The combo opens up for some unique cards like Faith's Reward, Kaervek's Spite, Renounce, Thrilling Encore, Bequethal, Enchanted Evening, Hatching Plans, and Induced Amnesia. I particularly love playing terrible enchantments that become amazing with a sac outlet.

Ever played against a mono-black aristocrats/reanimator deck? That's where the real slog is. (One time watched a dude durdle for 20 minutes to ultimately gain 6 life and drain us for a little) Pure blue takes the shortest turns of any color. Draw, play land, pass. In mono-blue you play the game on their turn, not your own. Why waste mana on your turn that could be used to counter something on your opponent's?

I love Ydris, it sucked that every single time ive played him an opposing Breya was present and could kill my commander every single time he even though about breathing

My most blue deck, is my birgi deck. Building storm and casting 1 mana "draw a card" until something happens

My first real synergy deck that had lots of chain reaction was a heavily modified version of the Jump Scare precon from Duskmourn... Ashaya, soul of the wild (All creatures are land) triggers landfalls whenever a creature enters the battlefield, Abhorrent Oculus, if i get multiple copies with copy spells, gives one (or more) creature per player upkeep and discards a card with manifest dread And then, hedge schredder. Since manifest dread let me look up at the card on top of the library and discard one, it triggers its effect whenever a land enters the graveyard from the library. So... I had to stop everybody AT EVERY UP KEEP to do my landfalls. Lets just say, one scute swarm easily transform into 2048 scute swarm in a single table turn, And with all that bullshit, im still able to trigger 7+ landfall duringy own turn thanks to being able to fetch lands into the graveyard along with effects that allows me to play multiple land per turn. Evolving wilds exit graveyard, landfall, sacrifice&search deck for a land, landfall. OH HEY LETS USE EVOLVING WILDS AGAIN! Rince&repeat until i just overwhelm everyone with a billion scuteswarm/creatures with +30/+30 trample. Nobody has fun playing against this deck 😬

Just discovered your channel today. Looking forward to more Commander deck videos!

Idk if you're still taking suggestions, but if you are looking for silly combo decks, I'm a fan of War Doctor + Ryan Sinclair. It plays 98 lands, and I like to call it "Galifreyan Charbelcher" (making reference to the Doctor's alien origin of the planet Galifrey and the Charbelcher-esque deck construction).

I’m working on an atogatog deck right now, and rather than focusing on barren glory, I’m trying to fill it with all the different ways I can copy and create more atogs from the 12 that exist (avoiding shapeshifters/changelings). It’s been such a fun challenge, and I’m really excited to see those little creatures every time I play it

Wait how do you only have 800 subscribers? This video is so good! You remind me of salubrious snail

The lowest deck I currently have built is Jhoira of the Ghitu, the first EDH deck I have ever built from scratch and not a modified pre-con, at a surprising 3133 decks. The next lowest I have is -Worldfire- Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar which is currently sitting at 3345 decks. I have my eye on building a particular double-digit commander because I think it would be funny in my playgroup, but I wanted to do that regardless of how many people made the deck.

Krenko still has the advantage of infinite combos and such. Additionally, if you do something like this, you’re now playing archenemy. There’s going to be more than one Doom Blade, and now you have a bunch of 1/1s with 3 cards in hand.

Cool deck, needs more lands

This is one of the most PERFECT idea for I deck that I ever seen

As someone who is working to build every 5 color commander possible (i'm currently at 8), Atogatog has always been a headscratcher, but I think I know where I want to head with it, and it's not where this deck went: having a secret commander in it the deck hidden away, feigning Atogs. Now, while most people do that with Cromat, I went the crazy route of building Cromat Mutate Ikoria Set Constructed Only for that deck and no deck I have built has done the "secret commander" achievement for that.

My least popular commander is “Beregond of the Guard” it’s a human commander from lord of the rings and it still has >400 decks on EDHREC but he’s so cool. Casting a spell like “horn of Gondor” and just winning right after that always feels awesome

It hurts me that I can recognize Atogatog pixelated like that.

Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t defiler of faith only let u pay 2 life and reduce one white pip? I was under the impression that it wasn’t a repeatable effect for a single spell w multiple white pips…

Thunder Junction was packed with legendary creatures, but it gave me a Bonny Pall and a Geralf deck. Both have less than 2000 decks.

Problem with Kaima might be once it becomes 1v1 you have all opponent's creatures buffed. This is where Eriette seems superior to me, because her effect is stronger - the enchanted creatures can't attack you even 1v1 + she has built in sustain. But I agree it's still an interesting commander worth giving a shot

For commander i dont really have anything but i do love combos in constructed that can finish the game fast in a single turn with a few moves instead of infinite engines or long complicated sequences. so i'd say, my most proud combos have been "Izzet big spells" which is based on chaining Galvanic Iteration to double/triple cast X mana cost instant/sorceries like Song of Totentanz or Burn Down the House or even the Fall of Kroog, and MonoRed with DMU Jaya as a typical MonoRed Burn/Control mix that wants to stall until she gets her ult and i can triple cast things from graveyard using Invoke Calamity or even get a triple casted Explosive Singularity right into opponent's face.

Wiki: Updated.

I played more popular commanders when I first started, I quickly realised I had more success with less popular/obviously powerful commanders than the more consistent and well known ones

What a beautiful way to win with Barren Glory. Use Enchanted evening and the one to sacrifice enchantments and you will very easily sacrifice everything you need. No need to bring out Atogatog! But this is a neat deck that would be fun to see in action

Do you have a decklist for your fblthp deck? it looks fun

👍

i absolutely agree, i was looking for a nice Reanimator commander a while back and i adore her too!

How annoying will this deck be? Not enough. You can always make a more annoying deck. Believe in yourself.

I was going through my bulk and I saw it, Denry Klin Editor in Chief. It started off pretty bad and now it's not half bad. I need to focus just a little bit more but I think it's in a neat spot

Love me some Atogatog, also run Barren Glory, but it's kinda the reverse like "Fuck it, maybe this'll win if beating them to death with Atogs fails." My favorite was using Merciless Eviction plus Enchanted Evening to claw out a win at 5 life (and one person was playing Nekusar, so while it's RNG based I was on a potentially very short clock).

0:40 "Before now, the only 4-color commanders we really had were the nephilims" Was there a time when non-legendaries could be commanders, or did you just play non-legendary commanders anyway?

I once built a combo deck in Commander by accident. I threw every white Rebel and every white or colorless way to ramp mana I could find into a Lin Sivvi deck - and one of them happened to be Mirror Entity. So I'd sit there putting a bunch of crappy overcosted creatures into play and looking harmless, then I'd attack, search up Mirror Entity, make them all huge, and win out of nowhere.

Nah, there's a big difference in the Animar example. We're not here to win, so whether or not you're losing is not a consideration. We're here to have fun, so the fact that one requires you to play the game and the other one requires you to just happen to have the card in hand puts the two scenarios worlds apart. As an Animar player myself, you *should* remove Ancestral Statue from your deck: It's neither fun for you nor your opponents. If you're that scared of losing the game, leave the table, find a therapist, and sign up for legacy at your LGS.

I made this a couple of years ago as a mirror to my Ur-Dragon changeling deck. This had all the changelings, and interesting wincons included. My favorite is winning with 4 "demons"

I really liked this video. Subbed :) Would have never guessed the barren glory win con 😅

I used to play Orzhov Combo with Kaerveks Spite, which sacrifices all your permanents and discards your hand, with Academy Rector into Barren Glory

I've been wanting to build Atogatog Barren Glory for a long time now...

Great video! I appreciate that it was informative and pretty quick. Keep up the good work!

HUGE ERRATA AT 1:48. Plotted cards cannot be casted at instant speed. Spell pierce does not work as interaction. Thanks for all the comments everyone 😅

I built a Thromok deck that could theoretically kill something ridiculous like 3(5x-1)+8 players in a single turn where X is players in the game. (dependant on lifetotals and having 9+ different combo pieces on the board and having an absurd number of goblins to devour)

Aaah Atogatog. The 5-color card from the best block in Magic. It was actually a leftover from an un-set that they decided to print in a standard set. I'm currently building my Atogatog and this is going to be a big help.

1:53 How does Spell Pierce work with plot? Doesn't Plot say that the plotted cards can only be cast at sorcery speed?

My absolute pet deck is Cormela, the Glamour Thief - I just love uncommon commanders and she is amazing, able to provide insane value in terms of mana production when paired with the right cards and I'm not even that mad when she gets killed, due to that sweet death-trigger.

Barren Glory? Pft. We play The Cheese Stands Alone.
