Bro I literally just built this deck. I've put 2 fun lands into it. Hickory Woodlot and Saprazzan Skerry. You play one of these on turn one you have 3 mana turn 2 and turn 3 you have a land you can sac for your commander. I've been brewing with this deck a lot. I figured out the self-mill strategy earlier but love to see a full self-mill strategy for him. Haunted Fengraf is a good land to use in this deck as well. The commander is a really cool and I love how many ways you can go with this commander. Love the decklist, and love the content! Keep it up!
Well, there goes my Atraxa Horror tribal deck. Need too many cards from it to build this amazing shell! I've wanted a non-conventional voltron deck, and this look way too fun!
LOVE my Slogurk deck... I had the same ideas for self-mill and originally built it that way... but changed it back. I couldn't bear to see the cards I needed bypassing my hand and going to my graveyard (despite the several "shuffle your yard into your library" cards). I went with a maximum draw strategy, lots of "draw 3, discard 2" cards... that way you're filtering everything through your hand and you don't put a massive target on your forehead by suddenly growing your commander +12 in one turn. I used Triskadekaphile for a win last week. :)
Just started playing after a 10 year break, have ZERO cards to play with lol. So I bought 3 draft boxes and began building again. Got an alt art slogurk and decided to use him. Thanks for the video showing what types of cards to put in!
I haven’t looked at your deck list yet, but Simic Ascendancy made its way into mine as an alt-win con, as well as Jace, Wielder of Mysteries. I believe his is the lowest power of the empty library win cards. Titania, Protector of Argoth is a great and super budget include as well.
You should make a video on red and green commanders that is powerful but has a fun combo if that make sense I'm looking for a red and green commanders but i don't know what commander i should do
Gruul actually have a pretty good variety in commanders. Most are combat or land based, but they also have a lot of synergy on sorceries. Wort, the Raidmother is the most fun gruul deck I've ever built, pumping lot of tokens and snowballing value out of nowhere until a gigantic spell hits the board and wins the game.
@@arthurbozelli4360 thank you so much I'm just trying to beat my friends i died first and my deck is not that strong i got zombies and morph deck and rats tbh
@@Galaxykidd29 No problem. I don't know what your deck is from description alone, but it doesn't seem very focused. In Gruul colors, I'd suggest Svella as commander. She has that sort of ramp and Golos effects and can either fit in a more general strategy as a focused one.
I’m not sure which retrace cards are considered good anymore, but those might be a nice include. I also like the Incarnations you can have in these colors, for redundancy.
I just recently finished a Slogurk deck but one of my main cards is Zuran Orb. Man that frustrated the table. Also could swap in Walk the Aeons to get extra turns and make Slogurk even bigger. I had someone Rakdos Charm my graveyard over an Abzan graveyard deck due to what I was able to do.
You know, I was thinking. Wouldn't some of the depletion counter lands work pretty good with this guy? (Hickory Woodlot, Saprazzam Skerry)? Double the counters with Vorinclex too if you wanted.
Zuran Orb works great here! Just before damage, you tap all of your lands and just sacrifice them to gain 2 life. If your opponents want to do something in response, you still have the mana floating to counter it.
I’m thinking about a Vadrick, Astral Archmage deck. Simic has had enough flash. It’s Izzet’s turn. Even though Izzet has more flash… Anyways, just the idea of doing everything on your opponents’ turns with cost reduction and skipping your own (maybe some activated abilities), sounds a little fun
Another great card I would consider putting in the deck is my personal favorite (and only one I would play) extra turn spell, Walk the Aeons. It's the only extra turn spell with Buyback and the cost is sacrificing 3 Islands. Taking an extra turn, putting that spell back in your hand again, and putting 3 lands into the grave for Slogurk sounds like a good deal to me. *EDIT:* Another great little tech I used to run in my Mimeoplasm deck, was the card Tunnel Vision, you can use it as a tutor that also mills you!
I missed Oath of Druids in this: perfect card to go Voltron. Just put one other creature into your deck: Lier, Disciple of the Drowned and maybe one or two reshuffle effects (even with Gaeas Blessing the counters should stay on Slogurk). In the end you have a Voltron Slogurk and some nice Flashback cards in your graveyard like Berserk, Vines of Vastwood etc.
I originally had it my deck but was shocked by how often it wasn't used at all... I think it's more handy when you have lots of creatures with counters and not just you commander... I took it out after several games for something more useful.
@@origaminosferatu3357 instead of unblockable you could also just give him an Assualt Suit and have everyone kill eavhother and pass him back to you for the good bye. ❤
Wow what a cool build. Makes me reconsider Slogurk all-together.
I've built a self-mill slogurk list the day he was revealed. It's a blast to play and the overslime grows big and healthy super quickly!

Mirror Mad-Phantasm. That's it. Huge milling, instant speed too. Maybe Excavation fits in too
That’s the best card in my Muldrotha deck lol

I feel like Gaea's Blessing would slot really well into this deck too. Mill it and then everything just shuffles back in, no worries.
The original ulamog and kozilek work for the same reason
@@des-trina yes but we Ballin on a budget here
Feel like “The Ozolith” would be great in this.
Omg yeah I missed the land part as well, I thought its one or more land, but its just one land, this commander is surprisingly powerful!!

I keep getting punished with your decks recently. This deck just crushed our table in MTGO yesterday. I love the unique flavour you keep delivering.
Don’t worry, I’ve been traumatizing myself for years
Dang, beat me to it.
Lol.,
Finally an excuse to be proud of it tho 👏
This is a pretty cool deck nice way of changing it around to make it into mill. Great video my friend
Really digging the commander and love the way it’s working so far on historic brawl gonna try and make it irl

Very cool build! Thanks!
Slogurk is probably my favorite Simic Commander because he flips the usual lands matters playstyle of Simic on its head.
Love it, my brother is building this deck!!

Great build...you should probably add the cycling lands though ;-)

What’s up demo, when you play test these decks do you proxy, or do you have all these cards sitting around?
Why no hermit druid + Gaeas Blessing?
If you don't play basics you can pretty much +40/+40 every single turn.
I love this so much!! I may steal the idea...
I’m not sure which retrace cards are considered good anymore, but those might be a nice include. I also like the Incarnations you can have in these colors, for redundancy.
I like this a lot!!! Self mill is really cool
Hey
What about budget commander deckbuildings?
When I built this deck I went with a same sort of theme, but I played a lot of spellshapers, since I can rebuy cards back to my hand

Not a single dislike so far lmfao, Slogurk is such a sick card
You know, I was thinking. Wouldn't some of the depletion counter lands work pretty good with this guy? (Hickory Woodlot, Saprazzam Skerry)? Double the counters with Vorinclex too if you wanted.
Ah yes! The deck tech I was waiting for!!!
My Brown wind is blowing
I think Gaea's Blessing is a perfect fit in here, put everything in your library and self mill again
Zuran Orb works great here! Just before damage, you tap all of your lands and just sacrifice them to gain 2 life. If your opponents want to do something in response, you still have the mana floating to counter it.
this is SO COOL thank you for this deck

Anyways, just the idea of doing everything on your opponents’ turns with cost reduction and skipping your own (maybe some activated abilities), sounds a little fun
Dumping your library then picking it up and dumping it again sounds more fun

Mirror mad phantasm is the mvp of my list
Quickly YES! I love Slogurk
I have a underrated card it's called crystal vein
Les go finally time for me favorite slimey boi
Since you went ooze tribal (kinda) biowaste blob and predator ooze would be solid cards to consider. Also a shuffle titan or gaeas will.
Nice one think I would have to put a bow of nylea in this deck for death touch, counters and ability to return things from your graveyard to library
Simic Ascendancy. Gg
I missed Oath of Druids in this: perfect card to go Voltron. Just put one other creature into your deck: Lier, Disciple of the Drowned and maybe one or two reshuffle effects (even with Gaeas Blessing the counters should stay on Slogurk). In the end you have a Voltron Slogurk and some nice Flashback cards in your graveyard like Berserk, Vines of Vastwood etc.
Surprised hermit Druid wasn’t mentioned in here. Put 1 or 2 or 0 basic lands and a kozilek in here and you have 1 shots as early as turn 3
I love the idea of attacking, holding up mana….then using a mass mill as a combat trick lol. Truly traumatize.
First thing I did when I saw this commander was put in mesmeric orb and basalt monolith
Just built this with Mana Vortex and Stasis + Nature's Will effects
Really, no Biowaste Blob? It's strictly better than Biogenic Ooze here, and if you combine both of them it's pretty nuts
Keep those card recommedations comming in the comments. This is a great looking deck,
Terr-a-vore! Terr-a-vore! Terr-a-vore!
Double Major would be nice in the deck, a green and a blue to copy target creature, if it's a legendary then the copy is considered non-legendary
how about an Ozolith for +1/+1 shenanigans
Why would people play landfall with wording too scary for The Gitrog Monster?
Why not "The Ozolith"? seems an auto-include
I originally had it my deck but was shocked by how often it wasn't used at all... I think it's more handy when you have lots of creatures with counters and not just you commander... I took it out after several games for something more useful.
Gurk em out
Someone wanted to play The Gitrog Monster with blue..?
I great deck brew but I think I prefer @BasicallyMTG 's brews for Slogurk- why Voltron when Slogurk is already the infinite combo king??
Because combos are no fun
@@paultronesofa6349 it's ok you can just traumatize yourself and make Slogurk unlockable until end of turn and finish it that way instead.
@@origaminosferatu3357 That's just a cool out, I think the funny part is doing land shenanigans and tricks with slogurk going to value town :)
@@origaminosferatu3357 instead of unblockable you could also just give him an Assualt Suit and have everyone kill eavhother and pass him back to you for the good bye. ❤
Of course when it doesn't say "One or more" it's a Simic card. Typical WotC
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh stop using papyrus font…….
