    Missed this series ngl. 99% of channels are just focused on optimisation.... Which tbh is staggeringly easy. Fun builds only for me, thanks.

    Is very important To mention that thornbite , staff does trigger when you sacrifice a Rat token because You are allowed to sacrifice rent tokens and then Create double the amount of rats on the field and because technically A token does go to the graveyard. Even for a split second before it is extinguished from the game, it does untap your commander. Meaning if you keep sacrificing tokens, you can do this indefinitely. It is my favorite Infinite combo that I do at local Championships regularly.
    If you activate his effect, only 100 times because your rats are doubling each and every time you end up with.
    146 quintillion rats.
    Then if you play gruesome fate.
    Each opponent loses life equal to the number of creatures you control.( This does infact include tokens.)
    So by turn five at the latest if you have Both the staff and gruesome fate.You can instantly kill all opponents

    While I will never disagree Relentless Rats is a great option, I personally run Rat Colony instead, for 2 main reasons. Cost one mana less and buffs off each rat. That being said, of course Marrow Gnawer is my commander. He and Rat Colony just work so well together. Had a couple games where I'm swinging multiple Rat Colonies with power in the 60s each

    Ashcoat of the Shadowswarm with Colony Rats is my favorite way to build the tribe.

    I recently replaced Marrow-Gnawer with Ashcoat as my rat commander, not expecting to keep it for long, but oh boy Ashcoat is a beast. The new rat commander from WoE will be going in the 99 for sure.

    The best one is poison infect.. but this build will require some heavy black staples like phyrexian obliterator, sheoldred, 5+ tutors and reanimation. I was going along with enchantment equip spells but alot of ppl running something to counter that atm so instead - I've gone with a theme of:-
    Karumonix, the rat king
    Infect
    Poison
    Draw [13]
    Attack^-/+//death-gain[s] [6]
    Token-/+/swarm/+/ [11]
    Death touch [4]
    3x board wipes
    5x tutors
    7x removals
    +1/+1's
    Reanimation [2]
    Indestructible [3]
    Upgrades I'd consider is something for mana ramp and a jeweled lotus

    Also, Pack Rat is an absolute house in any rat tribal deck

    I’m definitely a traditionalist when it comes to my rats deck. I stick with Marrow-Gnawer as my commander with relentless rats but then use the other rats that could be a commander in the 99.

  • @theshadowking9626
    @theshadowking9626 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I finished a local commander return event in first place using.
    Marrow-gnawer As my commander.
    I also had the other commanders you listed in the deck as well and he can create so many rats. Unless your opponent has a board wipe, you are unstoppable.
    My final game was going so long and I was playing against a green-white black deck. That never.
    Ended up drawing a board wipe. But they did have flying creatures which I did not. So they were slowly wearing me down.
    By the time I made it to my last turn and next time. They were going to kill me with flying creatures I had.
    517,210 4/4 Rat creature tokens with fear death. Touch lifelink and toxic one.
    Plus my other creatures on board.By the time I attacked my phone it was at Negative 4.2 million health.
    Definitely my favorite version to play Rats in commander. It's super fun and if you can at least make it to turn 5, you can easily have over a 100 rats on your board and with them being unblockable, you can just destroy all of your opponents.

  • @thorne5072
    @thorne5072 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I basically just decided to opt out of the relentless rays for my build. I would feel the need to run thrumming stone and idk I just want more utility.
    I’m running karumonix with proliferate and an aristocrat package. Idk mono black is just a mean color.

    Ive been building an assassin rat Deck featuring most of the ninjas with a pillow fort subtheme that suits the storm drain home of my stabby rats, so far its a fun build but i feel like running Nashi, moons legacy to hit the land drops i want and costless card draw

    Been working on a rat deck for a while now, personally I enjoy Karumonix the Rat King as my commander, slumlord, marrow, and piper of the swarm are awesome compatriots for it too, fear, and toxic? Yeah dude, rats are evil regardless lol

    Switch out Relentless Rats for Rat Colony, they're the same and cost 1 mana less, and add Mogis's Marauder for a finishing play in the infect variant.

    I made my rat deck with Vela the night clad as commander. All my rats start with intimidate and if a creature dies everubody else loses a life. She also gives me access to blue for some shenanigans. The rest of the deck is rats.
