Since Theros released, I've been wanting to make a Gorgon tribal deck, but due to the Gorgon's relatively high cost to both cast and use their activated abilities from Hythonia the Cruel, Sisters of Stone Death, or Xathrid Gorgon, I feel that it's hard to make anything decent in 60-card constructed. Therefore, here's a commander deck. I included the main Gorgons I thought were good, and then went from there.
Originally the Sisters were going to be my commander, then I realized that there's another Legendary Gorgon with Damia, Sage of Stone, who also gave me access to a 3rd color as well as great card advantage when she's in play.
Here's the list I made so far. My main concern is whether or not I have enough ramp sources to really make use of the gorgons and other costly spells, but I have yet to build this deck physically so playtesting isn't possible as of now. There aren't many Gorgons, so I sort of went with a snake subtheme aside from the regular finishers/utility creatures. Conspiracy really helps when I want to wipe the board with Hythonia and can stop counters when paired with Cavern of Souls. I also have Conjurer's Closet in the deck to "reset" some of my creatures to reuse Monstrous or to even abuse other ETB effects from cards like Sylvan Primordial or Grave Titan.
I'd like some feedback on this deck, and I'll take any advice into consideration. This is meant to be a somewhat budget deck though, and I can't afford all manner of duel lands or things of the sort.
