    Your videos randomly started showing up in my recommended. I’ve been bingeing them nonstop for like the last week! I’ve never played magic before but your videos have made me wanna pick up magic.

    Klothys is another card I like putting in gruul decks.
    It's easy to glance over because it doesn't impact the board directly.
    But If she comes down early the lifegain + damage helps a ton to keep you afloat
    If she comes down late chances are you'll have a 4/5 indestructible body
    And I haven't even mentioned the graveyard exile or mana generation yet
    Just a whole lot of utility for 1GR

    I was thinking of exactly this kind if videos for net picking needs. A video that gives you ideas for good cards for your classic deck as new season of cards comes out.. not many of my friends has the time to follow up on each edition if cards :)

    Bro i watch your vids, and every now and then i see a card i own. I just get so excited that i have a card thats worthwhile. Last time i looked at my cards, i was looking for standard. Mana crypt looked terrible to me then! I feel so silly, but im happy for the memories to looks back on and laugh!

    One card that I'll suggest that seems to me to be a little unknown is Zhur-taa druid. It's not the most efficient since it costs gruul, but I think being able to add in a little extra damage while also adding mana is very helpful.

  • @greekPharaoh666

    • @tattooman3603
      @tattooman3603 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Agreed. This card has saved me from a blue counterspell trying to get rid of a big creature or a red removal spell of mine SO many times......and nobody ever expects it.....and it's so cheap to cast.

    I’ve had Decimate fail me before, but that was before I changed my commander to Xenagos, God of Revels. Rhythm of the Wild is an all-star; usually I get Anger into my graveyard before casting it. I use most of these cards, and I’ll be adding in those Warhammer 40k recommendations

  • @BigDrew49

    -Ancient Grudge is good for hitting artifacts
    -Beast Within & Chaos Warp
    -Wild Magic Surge (maybe)
    -Boards wipe like Savage Twister and Heaven/Earth

  • @jameslabbe4119
    @jameslabbe4119 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Spellbreaker Behemoth is another Gruul flavor card. Gruul as a clan have less consistent identity than other guilds, but one that recurs often is "Don't counter my stuff!" and Spellbreaker fits nicely at the 4CMC slot. Another very favorite for both utility and flavor is Signal the Clans. It's a great budget card, and *probably* won't find you exactly the creature you need...but not always. Thanks Demo!

  • @chaoswarriorx4411
    @chaoswarriorx4411 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Another Gruul card I like is Grumgully the generous. It’s almost the same as Rhythm of the wild but it’s a creature

  • @okgut2033
    @okgut2033 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    If you play Rhythm of the wild, i would also consider fires of yavimaya and maybe invigorating hot spring.
    Escape of the wild might also be a very strong card for gruul.
    Oh and if you want to strip momentum from blue players monsoon is a musthave.
    And lastly im a big fan of Dragon broodmother even if she isnt that good anymore :)

    Green has fight effects which deal well with creatures. Green is great at trampling and big creatures, so since green focuses on creatures, boardwipes are not something we care about.

    Guttural Response is always in my Gruul decks. It's enabled me to win games and at the very least eliminate blue mages. No Cyclonic Rift ruining your board state. Also, Klothys is probably my favorite Gruul card and definitely my favorite commander. Gives you ramp and keeps the graveyards clean so you don't have to worry about things in the late game.
