This deck is very simple to play. You just mana ramp and get Borborygmos Enraged out then you swing in, You just need to hit once, maybe twice and you win.
I just put this deck together with the cards I had. I would love to hear suggestions for upgrades that I can go about trading for.
Also like to hear suggestions one what else I can add to the deck. There is lots of room in my 'other creatures' section - I just threw those guys in for fun.
Heh, and when you hit your opponent, draw lands, and then discard them to do damage you have to say in a deep voice "Boborygmos Enraged, Gruul Smash!!!"
You might want to consider ways to keep Borborygmos from being countered, especially by Spell Crumple or Hinder. Your opponents will be able to see him coming a mile away and anyone playing blue should know to hang on to countermagic to keep him off the board.
Not really sure how to make him uncounterable. I could run a few more big creatures as alternate threats. Opponent holds onto counters for my commander while my 8/8's swing in for the beats.
Search for cards that give double strike, those will probably work out a lot better for you to get commander damage through.
More utility lands, all the cycling lands in your colors- Life From the Loam seems absolutely amazing in this deck... you should check out the other Borb 2.0 deck posts
Thanks Throst54. Didn't even know those counter spell creatures existed.
Where do I find the other Borb 2.0 deck posts? I've seen the stickies for the Borb 1.0 but its not even close to the same kind of deck.
That deck does however make a bigger use out of the discard function of borg rather than the combat step ability. Its good to note that you should usually be able to get through with him just having trample- or just discarding lands to kill the creatures in the way.
Life From the Loam is an allstar here, get one before it goes back up!

Most of your card draw seems subpar? Why not harmonize, Soul's Majesty, Garruk, Primal Hunter, Keen Sense
