You are missing a great opportunity to play Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis since you do not care if he gets milled, you can return him to the battlefield by delving or convoking.
heyy great deck, just what i was looking for,i only got one question , why arent you using the dredge cards? i think that they are pretty nice in this type of deck :D
Thank you! And great question. Dredge cards are definitely very good with any graveyard strategy. Over time though, I ended up cutting them out because they felt like there are cards that can more easily/reliably perform their roles for Meren. Without writing an essay, dredge feels clunky and slow with Meren because she is competing with dredge to get cards out of the graveyard. I always felt better off just drawing a card from the library than dredging out a piece. Thanks again and check out the updated deck list! (I need to remake this video) 💭
Thank you! I definitely get lots of death triggers for Meren, she often ends up with an excessive amount of Experience Counters. Even if you don't have a sacrifice outlet, your creatures are amazing blockers that will usually ward off anyone from swinging at you, just because they don't want to give you experience counters, which gives you more time to set up small combos. Just remember that Meren doesn't need exp counters to get value, even if she's putting creatures into your hand that's good for you. The deck list has been changed quite a bit since this was uploaded, I'd recommend checking it out 😎👍
Tokens can be great sacrifice fodder and can get Meren a lot of Experience quickly, but you still need to get Nontoken creatures into the graveyard. Most of the cards in this deck get much stronger the more Nontoken creature cards are killed/milled. Plenty of the creatures in the deck have ETB abilities, and don't provide much value after they enter, making them great sac fodder. Token creatures are best used scarcely in this deck to provide a quick boost to Meren Experience counters. Or cards like Kessig Cagebreakers, Izoni Thousand-Eyed, or Tombstone Stairwell can end the game when you have a big graveyard using token creatures. 😎👍
Cool! Meren is amazing! And I can't wait to try Thais version!

Nice one, looks very interesting! Do you get enough Death-Triggers for Meren?

@@pizza_for_cowboys sure, will do! Thanks for your response, mate. ✌🏻
But i have to say: where's the Giant Lotleth? He is a machine in a 50 crtr deck!
Lotleth Giant did make it in! I added it a while ago, and it has won me more than a couple games! 👍👍
I am Thinking of maling this deck. Ir didnt look like You had Thy Manu tonen generator to pay for the sac “cost” for Manu og the other creatures.
