Just wanted to say, randomly found you like two weeks ago and now I watch your videos whenever I have free time. Definitely one of my favorites, keep them up man
I'll admit, I didn't think much of these partners when I first saw them, but this video's had them grow on me a little. Time for annoyingly unblockable Whale Wolf! I feel like Pir and Toothy would be a good fit for the deck - Pir doubles the counters Cazur puts on your creatures, and Toothy synergises with flicker effects/Supernatural Stamina. The mono B partner from the Abzan deck draws cards when your creatures with counters ltb, which sounds great. Man, I'm actually excited for this pair, now!
I put a few clones in this deck as well. Metamorph, Rite of Replication, etc. If you clone Ukkima and sac the clone, the ability triggers. You can also clone any of the counter generators or any of the other unblockables.
Awesome video! Like how you’re using the pairings from the pre-cons. Hope you do a video on the pair from Ruthless Regiment also! You’ve already hit the other two pairs I was most excited about.
I'm trying out Tawnos's Coffin because Ukkima keeps any auras and counters when it leaves the battlefield that way. Conjurer's Closet and New Thassa for when I have lots of counter enablers for when it enters the battlefield. Cards like Quietus Spike and Fraying Sanity will help me tenderize life totals as well. Going to try and eat at least one opponent every turn by the time I develop a reasonable board state. Also Food Chain combo as a flavor finisher seems appropriate to me. Lots of stuff fits really easily in the deck.
This is my next build! And there’s so many more awesome cards that have come out since then, like Cleopatra from the UB AC set. Also rules have changed so any dies triggers for Ukkima work now and can still go back to the CZ.
Haven’t watched this video yet, but when these cards were spoiled my plan was tinkering my Pir & Toothy into these guys. Blink the Whale Wolf, maybe play some card advantage Ninjas, now I can play Reyhan and keep those counters around. Ozolith artifact coming in Ikoria is going to be great too.
Thinking of running these guys in more of a Yarok blink style deck mostly because I just want to burn people out with Ukkima's trigger. It's not going to be competitive but I do love my janky fun decks.
Interesting, I was thinking about Dauthi + Edric + Counterspells. I'd recommend thinking about adding Drana, Liberator of Malakir. Talking my favorite cards (Faeries) you have Bitter blossom, Scion of Oona, Sower of Temptations, Glen Elendra Liege, Mistbind Clique, Oona, Queen of the Fae, and Oona's Blackguard,
Ninjitsu seems really good with Ukkima, he's unblockable so you never need to worry about satisfying the requirement and when he leaves the battlefield he hits someone on the way out. Very cool. Some passive pump that you don't need to actually affix to Ukkima like Beastmaster Ascension or what have you will make that damage as he leaves the battlefield seriously threatening too. I could see building this as a ninjitsu commander, you've got all the dimir ninjas that go in Yuriko plus the ramp, card draw, and pump effects from green. Make this a ninja +1 counters hybrid kind of deck and I can see it being beastly.
Essentially, I was thinking about building tall off of ukima with mutates, then go wide off of blinking ukima with the stack of mutations coming back as creatures rather than mutations.
Sultai is my favorite three color and this deck is fire. I built unblockable tribal with enough counter buffs to the point where my homies told me to I build the deck
I have a Sultai counter with partner commanders deck where my win conditions center around combat and commander damage I can't wait to swap them out for this duo and tune it. Also I look forward to your videos and seeing what you do with these guys
My idea for this pair is to center the deck around Ukkima and win with commander damage Reyhan, Last of the Abzan, Death's Presence, and The Ozolith would be the centerpieces of the deck, being able to load a bunch of +1/+1 counters on Ukkima As with any +1/+1 counter themed deck it could also go wide and win with cards like Hero of Lambhold and Herald of Secret Streams Pir and Toothy would also be very at home in the 99
I'm really not sure how I'll build them...but a)I'll build them for sure and b) stuff like Curiosity, Curious Obsession (!!!!!) and Keen Sense will find a way into my build!
Sure does! Ukkima’s creature type is Whale Wolf. So any bonus to a wolf is given to Ukkima. And if you have a bonus to a whale, Ukkima would get it too.
I'm so co confused. How does Blue Black have a better way to finish than Sultai? Add green and it's no longer able to finish???? What???? You can definitely finish you just need finishers.
Sultai lacks punch is what I’m trying to say. It doesn’t always perform poorly. It’s just a weird color shard. And, I was speaking to the nature of this deck and how it would play out in sultai shell.
Also, it’s more aimed to the new person getting into Sultai. It can be a difficult color group to get into and find your groove sometimes. Long story short, I just want a new player to sultai to learn the ropes of what sultai is about.
i dont understand how u say sultai doesnt have ways to finish games with stuff like tooth and nail, rise of dark realms and torment of hailfire in the colors

Thank you! 😄
Jolt doing god work, Putting out content during quarantine
I really like the +1/+1 counters idea in sultai. I think I'm going to build that one.
I guess I really am the only guy who saw these partners and thought “hey I could go wide with unblockables that get bigger from Cazur”
No i had the same idea!
Same
Same

I want to make a Food Chain deck with these guys...pretty much for the Whale Shark but oh well

Needle Specter is a Dreamstealer with evasion. If you're running a creature package, it is an excellent addition.

I think skullbriar will work well on a counter deck as well

Def most excited about these guys out of all the other commanders. I'm afraid my friends will hate the unblockable though x)
Especially with the new Recon Mission giving us basically 4 copies of Coastal Piracy. Swing 3 creatures, draw 9 cards?
Sultai is my favorite three color and this deck is fire. I built unblockable tribal with enough counter buffs to the point where my homies told me to I build the deck
I have a Sultai counter with partner commanders deck where my win conditions center around combat and commander damage I can't wait to swap them out for this duo and tune it. Also I look forward to your videos and seeing what you do with these guys
Im uh going voltron ish with Ukkima but with mutate on Ukkima and equipment's and a bunch of bounce effects to save them.
I’m making sultai ninjas. I love the idea of dealing commander damage every time I ninjutsu Ukkima to my hand
I love that too.
My idea for this pair is to center the deck around Ukkima and win with commander damage
Reyhan, Last of the Abzan, Death's Presence, and The Ozolith would be the centerpieces of the deck, being able to load a bunch of +1/+1 counters on Ukkima
As with any +1/+1 counter themed deck it could also go wide and win with cards like Hero of Lambhold and Herald of Secret Streams
Pir and Toothy would also be very at home in the 99
Pretty sure that's the first time in like the 3 I've been watching you pronounce a name correctly on a new funky named card 1st try 😉
Sweet deck list! My thoughts how to build them too
I love it when people think Essence Harvest is worse than it is
I'm really not sure how I'll build them...but a)I'll build them for sure and b) stuff like Curiosity, Curious Obsession (!!!!!) and Keen Sense will find a way into my build!
There is no way i could make a deck like this and play in the same table twice...
does ukkima count as wolf for stuff that give monus to wolf creatures?
Sure does! Ukkima’s creature type is Whale Wolf. So any bonus to a wolf is given to Ukkima. And if you have a bonus to a whale, Ukkima would get it too.
@@joltMTG thanks a lot
Happy building!
@@joltMTG thanks, i'm just an old player that want to make a possibly cheap wolf deck just for fun
Nice! Hope the build turns out fun!
This could use pir and toothy, they can make the whole deck go nuts, cards like hardened scales and simic ascendancy can win the game.
Unfortunately that Aluren combo doesn't work, as you still need to pay the commander tax.
is it worth to buy the commander deck ?
Oh yeah! From what I’ve seen it looks good!

Undying Evil seems like a dead card a lot of time because of all the +1/1 counters floating around.
It does keep you open for keeping your other threats on the battlefield too. You can also use it as a sac outlet in a pinch.
