Your videos randomly started showing up in my recommended. I’ve been bingeing them nonstop for like the last week! I’ve never played magic before but your videos have made me wanna pick up magic.
Klothys is another card I like putting in gruul decks. It's easy to glance over because it doesn't impact the board directly. But If she comes down early the lifegain + damage helps a ton to keep you afloat If she comes down late chances are you'll have a 4/5 indestructible body And I haven't even mentioned the graveyard exile or mana generation yet Just a whole lot of utility for 1GR
Bro i watch your vids, and every now and then i see a card i own. I just get so excited that i have a card thats worthwhile. Last time i looked at my cards, i was looking for standard. Mana crypt looked terrible to me then! I feel so silly, but im happy for the memories to looks back on and laugh!
One card that I'll suggest that seems to me to be a little unknown is Zhur-taa druid. It's not the most efficient since it costs gruul, but I think being able to add in a little extra damage while also adding mana is very helpful.
I was thinking of exactly this kind if videos for net picking needs. A video that gives you ideas for good cards for your classic deck as new season of cards comes out.. not many of my friends has the time to follow up on each edition if cards :)
I’ve had Decimate fail me before, but that was before I changed my commander to Xenagos, God of Revels. Rhythm of the Wild is an all-star; usually I get Anger into my graveyard before casting it. I use most of these cards, and I’ll be adding in those Warhammer 40k recommendations
Agreed. This card has saved me from a blue counterspell trying to get rid of a big creature or a red removal spell of mine SO many times......and nobody ever expects it.....and it's so cheap to cast.
Green has fight effects which deal well with creatures. Green is great at trampling and big creatures, so since green focuses on creatures, boardwipes are not something we care about.
Spellbreaker Behemoth is another Gruul flavor card. Gruul as a clan have less consistent identity than other guilds, but one that recurs often is "Don't counter my stuff!" and Spellbreaker fits nicely at the 4CMC slot. Another very favorite for both utility and flavor is Signal the Clans. It's a great budget card, and *probably* won't find you exactly the creature you need...but not always. Thanks Demo!
I love Signal the Clans. Gruul demonic tutor with extra steps! Bonus points if the creattures you get all do a similar thing so it doesn't matter which one you grab
A few of those destroy cards are great that I had no idea were made. These are decently cheap enough to buy and my play group always tells me to add more destroy in my decks. These will be in my Hans edh...
If you play Rhythm of the wild, i would also consider fires of yavimaya and maybe invigorating hot spring. Escape of the wild might also be a very strong card for gruul. Oh and if you want to strip momentum from blue players monsoon is a musthave. And lastly im a big fan of Dragon broodmother even if she isnt that good anymore :)
in addition to dragonlair spider i like dragon broodmother, yes it is harder to cast but the guaranteed token EACH upkeep is great and as you are in green the 3r1g shouldnt be too hard to get
I agree, being able to play lands off top is always good. Used her as the commander and that pump ability is great if you don't have anything else to dump mana into.
There's a ton of "staples" to consider which is the beauty of this game. A couple quick ones are Krosan Grip featuring split second and Guardian Project for card advantage. 😉
Guttural Response is always in my Gruul decks. It's enabled me to win games and at the very least eliminate blue mages. No Cyclonic Rift ruining your board state. Also, Klothys is probably my favorite Gruul card and definitely my favorite commander. Gives you ramp and keeps the graveyards clean so you don't have to worry about things in the late game.
Dire Strain is going to be even better if you want to ramp with it thanks to the new creature that makes all your lands basics including the library. Yes I'll fetch my best lands now thank you.

nice
Don’t - not yet. Wait to see what happens with Hasbro/WotC.

Love casting decimate and targeting my purphoros as the enchantment

I really like Guttural Response. I think it's one of my favorite cards in the game.

Was about to save this. Can be playgroup dependent but I mine has quite a bit of blue running around, love watching their jaw drop 😊
@@TangeloRotMG Blue mages hate this one simple trick!
"Escape to the Wilds" would be one that I definitely would put, if I played gruul :D (esper colours for life)
Gruul? Goblin lumberjack nothing like turning a tapped forest into a lotus.
Tinder wall is just as cool
Although I know what you're talking about it's actually called Orcish Lumberjack 😊
That's some old school cool right there. Great card.

-Ancient Grudge is good for hitting artifacts
-Beast Within & Chaos Warp
-Wild Magic Surge (maybe)
-Boards wipe like Savage Twister and Heaven/Earth
Love the video! Thank's for what you do for the community!
Great video! quick pedantic point at 9:26 more like a roiling regrowth, b/c they enter tapped but yes it's god versatile tech for sure.

These videos are great, thank you very much ^^

A card I find fantastic for literally every 2 Color Deck I make is Seal of the Guildpact. Useful universally. Its like a Talisman or Signet
If you play Rhythm of the wild, i would also consider fires of yavimaya and maybe invigorating hot spring.
Escape of the wild might also be a very strong card for gruul.
Oh and if you want to strip momentum from blue players monsoon is a musthave.
And lastly im a big fan of Dragon broodmother even if she isnt that good anymore :)
Escape to the wild is bonkers as long as you don't play too many expensive spells
Great vid man, would love to see Jeskai staples next
Another Gruul card I like is Grumgully the generous. It’s almost the same as Rhythm of the wild but it’s a creature
Gruul is a color combo I struggled with for a while until Faldorn came out. Going to consider some of the cards you mentioned
Immolating Gyre is a solid one-sided board wipe in red.
surprised you didn't mention delayed blast fireball, for red boardwipes
Dire-Strain Rampage is one of those cards I am loving more every time I read it!
Cindervines is one of those cards that puts in WORK for 2 mana. You can get 5+ damage and removal for 2 mana.
I use some of these in my Miirym Deck. Urza’s Incubator goes great with Shadow In The Warp
in addition to dragonlair spider i like dragon broodmother, yes it is harder to cast but the guaranteed token EACH upkeep is great and as you are in green the 3r1g shouldnt be too hard to get
Radha Heart of Keld goes into every single gruul deck imo. Has never underperformed to this day.
I agree, being able to play lands off top is always good. Used her as the commander and that pump ability is great if you don't have anything else to dump mana into.
Dragon broodmother seems similar to the spider, also a solid gruul card

May I enlighten you of our saviors pyroblast and red elemental blast?
Dire Strain is going to be even better if you want to ramp with it thanks to the new creature that makes all your lands basics including the library. Yes I'll fetch my best lands now thank you.
My only gruel deck is raggadragga so all of those x cost spells are actually ideal, also, dragonlair spider lives in my jinnie fay deck
Tinder Wall is amazing
Shadow in the warp is soo good
Dire straight rampage is in my omnath deck because I mean that's 3 landfall triggers right there.
Clicked on this video wondering how to upgrade one of my decks and realized I have 1/3rd these cards already from cracking packs. In the deck they go.
My recommendations: Xenagos, God of Revels, Grand Warlord Rhada, Arni Slays the Troll(Not a staple, but a good card).
Decimate even more op now that there’s so many artifact tokens and the wild of eldrain brought enchantment tokens
Unfortunately shadow in the warp is $20 for some reason otherwise I would be running it
Red Elemental Blast/Pyroblast are not Gruul, but can go in any Gruul deck.
Why would you play harrow over better cards like Rampant growth, Kodama’s reach, Nature’s lore, or Overgrowth
bard class
