My xyris is known locally as the x^ It's because it's filled with "copy next/target instant or sorcery" and it either wins with a hideous laughter or ends the enemies by slapping them by 20+ copies of treacherous terrain
That. Is. Hilarious. Hahahahah! I would also laugh maniacally if that’s how I ended up winning the game! That’s some next level creativity 👌 Thanks for the comment! I hope you enjoyed the video!
@@CallMeCommanderMTG It's not a true group hug deck, but I rely on Howling Mine effects and cards like Prosperity over wheels, which can be spun as politically group huglike. Unfortunately I haven't gotten a chance to test the deck out, but Esix, Fractal Bloom with a kraken from Ominous Seas has me very excited.
the card long-term plans can also find song of creation without having the risk of discarding it. it puts song third from the top, so you can swing with xyris after tutoring to draw it :)
That’s spiiiiiiicy!! Didn’t even think about that.. God, I love it when the community teaches me new sh*t! Thanks for the comment! Now I have to go find a slot for it
Most of the time, even though it’s risky discarding your hand at the end step, you still have your commander on curve. So your commander becomes “Draw 2 cards” and the chain begins. Put down a couple lands, keep the ball rolling. If you don’t win the game, Xyris will draw you three cards on the next turn. That’s why I like it in this deck. I’ve also seen it in Dargo/Thrasios builds that focus on looping Dargo to draw their library. The big problem is when you discard your hand because that means you can’t interact with your opponents. Sometimes you get really far and aren’t able to cast the thing that would keep the ball rolling, but that’s just the nature of such a high risk, high reward card. The ceiling is “I win the game when it resolves.” The floor is “I can’t do anything, there go my cards, pray I draw something I can cast next turn. Hopefully the game doesn’t end before I can start the chain”

I just built Xyris as a group hug/go wide. Going to keep this saved in case I feel like changing up the deck strategy.
Glad you liked the video!
What’s your favorite tech in your group hug build?
Thanks for the comment!

Prosperity is so good! If only we had access to Cut a Deal..
I hope it all plays out and you’re able to see the deck do its thing! Best of luck!

Love that Song of Creation bit LOL
Lmaooo. Glad you liked it.
It's a love-hate relationship with that card..
The song alone earned a like 😂💯
Noah Brad-Brad really sh*t the bed, so it’s well-deserved shaming 😂😂
Really appreciate the suggestions at the end to downgrade from cedh to regular commander
Glad to hear it! I’ll be sure to include more of that in the future 👍
Thanks for your feedback!
I loved that guitar riff at the beginning... Twas fucking tasty
GOTTA GET YOU HYPED FOR WHAT'S TO COME!!
Thanks for the comment, my dude!
Baby Yoda ❤️🥺
Gifts from my family 🥰 They used to call me Yoda because my ears were so biiiiiig when I was a kid! They were savage af 😭😂
Could someone explain to me how song of creation works well even with how you have to discard your hand at the end of you turn?
