MTG Salvation

I love the suggestion for rasputin dreamwever, super flavorful. BUT i do really want to use recycle and or null profusion so maybe he can go in the 99 rather than the commander spot.

Thanks for the suggestions. I was just thinking about Proteus Staff, if i have no creatures in my deck I can put my deck in any order and put all lands on the bottom, then I can recycle my whole deck without running into lands. I could just use the staff on my commander or maybe a token i control, or maybe a creature i've gained control of.

Thanks for the great response! I feel like white should be in the deck because it loves enchantments too much to not be. I do need to acquire an academy rector. But I do have a Dream Halls which I am including because I agree, it is a secondary Omniscience. I have all the other cards you mentioned except for petals of insight, I feel it's good enough to put in, even just get a chunk of cards out of the way.

Hah! Great point, that will be an auto include.

I do want to appease my Timmy/Johnny side, so I am still looking for big ridiculous plays.

You are almost certainly going to want white because all the enchantment matters cards are white. Idyllic Tutor Enlightened Tutor Academy Rector and since you are playing based on Omniscience you are going to want to find it every time. Green is the next best color for finding and using enchantments with cards like Commune with the Gods and it has Recycle as you mentioned or black has the best general tutors with Vampiric or the like. If you want a generic enchantment deck subtheme I would go with Bant or if you just want a combo deck Esper.

White DOES have all the enchantment tutors so that would def be good, but black has general tutors which could be arguably better depending on the board state.

If you have one, eureka Is good to cheat omniscience into play. show and tell can be good too!


If I were you though, I’d make sure you have an actual wincon somewhere. It’s easy to have a decent way to cheat omniscience into play, but without an actual wincon, it’s gonna feel like you had just fizzled out. I did that once with my zedruu deck.
it ends up making you the archenemy if th e table, and it’s not very fun. Just saying.

As for wincons, I am thinking of just having my deck setup to where if I cast the whole thing I'll win, but in order to cast my whole deck the main problem would be running into lands. So I was thinking of running cards like Mana Severance and Trench Gorger that way I can Omniscience + Recycle my entire deck out. Also Abundance is good for getting around lands as well.

I am trying to formulate a deck that features Omniscience as the star of the deck. But since it can't be my commander I am trying to find the perfect commander to house it. The only lead I have is that I want to incorporate Recycle and/or Null Profusion as well as Flood of Tears. Therefore it must have green or black or both.

The first commander I thought of was Kruphix, God of Horizons because he helps me ramp up to cast big spells, draw big amounts of cards, and of course cast Omniscience itself. BUT, no black... and tutors would be helpful.

Damia, Sage of Stone maybe because the draw is great but she is a bit slow.

I also thought Muldrotha, the Gravetide could be good in case Omniscience is in the graveyard.

Yarok, the Desecrated could also be good depending on what's in the deck.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Synergies?

Nice! I like your direction, arguably a safer more resilient approach, which is good because you're less likely to overextend and be able to perform in the long game.

Apocalypse Demon is very cool, I don't think I was aware of that one. Protean Hulk is a card I'd like to put in here for sure, I am also looking at Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder because most of my creatures are under 6 CMC. Stalking Vengeance is nice especially because I run Eldritch Evolution, so I can sac a 5 CMC creature to get it.

Vicious Shadows is absurdly good! I do know of it and it would do very well in this type of deck.

 

This deck is all about sacrificing everything you can in order to feed our hungry draw engine that is known as Korvold, Fae-Cursed King. Whether it be creature tokens, treasures, food, or regular permanents, there is nothing that Korvold will not eat. Win conditions are adaptable to a variety of situations, mostly ending in a sacrifice combo or straight commander damage, with one special alternate combo...

 

This particular deck does not have Grave Pact effects only because I already have a degenerate Prossh, Skyraider of Kher deck that runs all that stuff and I didn't want to have a deck that did the same thing. Instead, this deck focuses on reliably drawing cards so you can feast your way to victory. Also, I am aware that this list may not have the "best" card for a given slot (e.g. I have Diabolic Tutor instead of Diabolic Intent), this is just because these are my actual cards and I have many decks that my cards are spread across.

 

I have never had this much draw in a Jund colored commander deck and it feels amazing. This deck can be built many ways but I really wanted to include certain interactions which I will be listing below. I have a large "maybeboard" for this deck and will be trying different cards but this is my solid first build of it. Suggestions are encouraged.



Ramp up and fix your colors. Start by laying down some sacrifice outlets and tokens so when you cast Korvold, Fae-Cursed King you can use him right away in some way. Sylvan Safekeeper is very good to have out in order to protect Korvold while drawing you a card as well. Cauldron of Souls is also good because you can give Korvold persist to bring him back and then he will just get more +1/+1 counters on him negating the -1/-1 counter so you can use the cauldron again next turn.


This is the stage where you need to adapt to the board by removing threats and getting your combo pieces ready. I have found Living Death to be one of the more useful cards during mid-late game. Once your opponents have built up their boards you just sac all your creatures and cast it, leaving you with your army and your opponents without theirs. Bonus if Chainer, Nightmare Adept is on the field because then all your creatures will have haste.

Grab the Reins and Captivating Crew are also good removal considering you have ways to sacrifice whichever creature you gain control of. Speaking of Grab the Reins, you can usually kill a player by sacrificing Carrion Feeder, Hamletback Goliath or Korvold when they have a ton of counters on them.


This is where you draw your entire deck into a win. 

Psychosis Crawler, Mayhem Devil, or Syr Konrad, the Grim with any sac combo, or a super wide combat swing with tokens, or commander damage with Korvold himself.
