I enjoyed the deck, but I defiitely prefer the playback option (i.e. “Game 1″). The other games just take SO LONG.

I didn’t even finish watching the second game. After I noticed it was a ‘live’ match (5 seconds in) I stopped it

Anyway first game was cool to see and it was nice to see some aggro doing well, even though that’s not my cup of tea usually. But in commander I think it’s more fun if you let everyone play their deck and do stuff, so aggro is perfect to play. No one can be upset at someone smashing in with GR centaurs, right?

Yeah, like dirtydeeds said, you sound muffled, and I don’t think it is your voice. So you can try to fix that next time!

I also think 34 is a bit light, since you play a bunch of 7+ drops, but since you have trouble with cutting stuff already, maybe you can just try to fit in 35-36 for now?
Also, have you tried/thought of gift of the gargantuan? it can find a land and a creature, which is pretty useful and seems good in your deck, though I haven’t tested it in a 100 card deck so I couldn’t tell you how much it whiffs on one or either.

you were talking about the dragon magus as being a wheel of fortune if it hits. I was thinking that if you wanted a wheel of fortune effect, maybe you could play, wheel of fate, as it is much cheaper to cast (also cheap to buy too most likely) and easier to control (if he’s removed because people want to protect their hands then you get nothing out of it)

An efficient beater with a good ability is Burning Tree Shaman, though he doesn’t have trample…

Lastly, bloodbraid elf seems like a good include, and bounce target for your shivan wurm thing.
(Price is dropping pretty low now, and doesnt cost anything if you happen to own one already)

i’ve had alot of succes with Skarg, the rage pits. doesnt look that much. but it proved very handy. and fits the theme

and garruk really wants to join the party!

I really like the deck and most of your card choices.
It’s so timmy but so potent nonetheless.
The only thing I’m missing is a bit more CA and maybe some ramping in form of creatures.
I’m talking Yavimaya Druid/Elder and such.
You could then also add Overrun the create INSANE effects with your general.
If youre liking the idea you could also get a Garruk which would be great anyways, aswell as Kamahl, Fist of Krosa and the new M11 Overwhelming Stampede, as soon as it’s on Modo. When it comes to cutting I would cut at the higher end of your curve and cut the less synergistic stuff like Traiterous Instincts, World at War and Insurrection, which you won’t be needing if you build up more synergies with your general, I think.
Maybe you might cut Dragon Mage and some of the big dragons aswell (but certainly not the Hot Redhead ).

Let’s see where this deck is heading and keep up the good work!

lol the recordings were made in a college dorm room so that might have issue with the acoustics or I just have an awful voice.im going to lean towards the dorm room though.

As far as lands I do always feel a little iffy with the 34 lands. it did work like you mentioned but i was never super-comfortable with it. Primus has actually been purchased since i finished the videos, Im just massaging him in still. Worldly Tutor is a maybe right now. Mostly because of price but since I plan on doing a Mayael deck next it certainly would be a good card to pick up. As far as Godo, it is worth a look.
