WUBRG Win Cons v4

Commander / EDH*

ancillacaeli


The deck I lovingly refer to as a "very shiny garbage fire."

This deck was inspired by a bad pun from reddit about Triskaidekaphobia (my favorite card from SOI), originally inspiring me to make a mono black deck of win conditions. Once I realized there's only about four true mono black win cons, the deck expanded to five colors. I find this deck super fun to play, as even when it loses, some of the interactions are very fun. (It's also very fun watching my opponents figure out how to deal with it.) I will admit, some interactions are also very awkward, but that really is half the fun. (I once played Enchanted Evening and Starfield of Nyx in a fit of "I'm going to lose anyway." I didn't need those lands...but that is also why I now run Mirari's Wake.)

Various Win Cons and set-ups

Things that have actually won me games
Progenitor Mimic: Copy Liege of the Tangle, animate Guildgates
Progenitus
Maze's End because well timed guildgate tutor
Maze's End because Burgeoning, Amulet of Vigor, and something something Planechase
Something something Planechase
Venser's ult because no one noticed I had Venser ready to ult
Grove of the Dreamwillows into Avacyn (Yay Planechase) and Tamiyo's Journal to tutor for Phyrexian Rebirth

This deck is honestly one of my favorite decks to play simply because it is so bad/random/off the wall. It holds a very special, very silly place in my heart.

2020 update: Added a couple shinies and replaced Vamp Tutor with Lim-Dul's Vault. Vamp Tutor got expensive ;_;

Late 2020 update: Eldraine, Theros, and Zendikar are good sets. Also shiny Purphoros.

Later 2020 update: Shinies! and probably some TBD commander legends stuff when it actually releases but idk yet.

2021 update: So about that Vamp Tutor...I was all ready to get my hands on a judge promo Enlightened Tutor, when I could finally find one, and bought a box of Commander Legends only to open a foil Vampiric Tutor. Seems good. Updated a couple cards I was able to find my particular favorite versions of for this beautiful dumpster fire.
