Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on July 24, 2016, 6:09 p.m. by Dustintaylor26

I've decided its time to break down and build a new edh deck and reaper king has had my eye for a while now but i need some ideas, any auto includes or any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks everyone

Rite of Replication, Xenograft, and Conspiracy are auto includes.

Dream Halls can be an asset to get the King out faster.

Are you wanting to build tribal? Reaper King is one of those commanders that you just add a few cards to the deck that work with hm and make the rest of the deck good stuff. At this point you can really run anything. But if you're wanting to build tribal then it narrows the list of cards down substantially.

If you are looking for deck ideas for a Reaper King build, can I suggest EDHrec.com. That website is a goldmine for any EDH player, as it gives you a good base to build with, then you can add your own flair. For Reaper King, use some decent scarecrows like Pili-Pala and some changelings like Amoeboid Changeling and Cairn Wanderer.

My only concern about EDHRec is that if people use it to build a deck it only perpetuates the cards that are listed for that kind of deck.

EDHrec gives a solid starting point based on the most 'popular' cards in decks for each commander.

It links decks it pulled it's stats from (not all, I think), depending on how far you want to dig, you can find alot of different takes on commanders.

I like it, but at the same time I hate it. I like to think my decks are at least partially my own original thoughts. So when I use it now I link my deck and then see what's different from other decks with the same commander. If I don't like what I see, I try to do better and go back.

I've seen a lot of Reaper King decks that are filled with Changelings (every creature type, including Scarecrow) and then Lords (dudes that buff specific tribals). Due to the Changelings being EVERY tribal, they get all the buffs.

I'm more interested in doing changelings with guys that benefit my creatures

might be what you're looking for. It's changeling aggro/control ish stuff with the lords for all the creatures.

Here's way too long of a list of suggestions now that I know you're interested in Changeling Scarecrows.

If you have any more questions, I should have eaten my supper by then. Best of luck!
