Kaldheim Vorinclex Planeswalker Counters Madness

Commander / EDH* Counters Infect Mono-Green Proliferate

manahydra7


The new Vorinclex, Vorinclex, Monstrous Rider, is really good with any kind of counters. Planeswalkers, however, are just stupidly good with him. Like doubling season, Vorinclex doubles all of the starting loyalty of your planeswalkers when you play them. This usually means you can use their ultimate ability (if they have one) right off the bat, and they usually stay alive for more fun after! For example, once you play Ugin, the Spirit Dragon, you can immediately use his -10. Gain 7 life, draw 7 cards, and drop 7 permanents from your hand onto the battlefield... which will most likely be more planeswalkers, who enter with double loyalty, who can ult right away! What's more, Ugin will still have 4 loyalty counters left, and his +2 becomes a +4 with Vorinclex out. 3 more turns and you're ulting him again, if you haven't won already. Blightsteel Colossus and Worldspine Wurm are only in the deck to be fetched or played for free by a Garruk, or casted with double mana or lots of lands from a Nissa. Another theme is +1/+1 counters, as Vorinclex will double them all. Also, some cards have or give infect, as poison counters get doubled... and come on, Vorinclex is a phyrexian. Proliferate is a great mechanic in this deck, as it increases every counter you want on each creature and player by 2 with Vorinclex, instead of 1. There are many ways to win with this deck, as getting a planeswalker ultimate off already puts you on the path of winning. Ugin, the Spirit Dragon will win games just with his -10, and another combo I came across by accident was Evolution Sage and either Nissa, Worldwaker or Nissa, Who Shakes the World. Ulting either Nissa gets all the basic lands in your deck, and then evolution sage triggers like 20 times, proliferating 40 of each counter on everything with Vorinclex out. While Vorinclex helps us out a ton, don't forget that his ability also is hard on your opponents. He nerfs infect, +1/+1 counter and superfriend decks, and makes opponent controlled planeswalkers almost useless. He also just nerfs random popular cards that you wouldn't think about at first, like Everflowing Chalice, Steel Overseer, any of the experience counter commanders, and countless more. Finally, with a 6 cmc commander and such high costing planeswalkers, ramp is all-important. There's lots of ramp, so you can get Vorinclex down as soon as possible. If you have any suggestions, I'm open to them! I made this deck from card memory, so I am most likely missing some cards.
