    I'm not the kinda person that just says to put Scarab god into stuff. But Scarab god actually works here.

    I have a Gisa and Geralf commander deck. I love it to DEATH.

      The grim reality of the situation is that I run grimgrin as my zombie commander

      Ha Death I see what you did there. I also have this deck but I slightly tweaked it

    A lot of games I'vr played with the twins gave ended up as "oh man, Im so behi- oh draw spell..." *draws gas, board explodes* "dude!" "Yeah I forgot I was blue..."

    Ashes of the Fallen is my personal favorite card in my deck. All the cards you put in that aren't zombies ARE zombies as long as they're in your graveyard.

    @invisiblehand13 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Man, professor I just wanted to leave a note saying how much I LOVE your videos. I've never really played EDH, but this video has inspired me to make my very first EDH deck. Thank you.

  • @BIGpony777
    @BIGpony777 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    perpetual timepiece. everytime ive drawn it in my opening hand ive gotten a gigantic board super quickly.

  • @cathart866
    @cathart866 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yes!! I just started building this and I'm excited to see what I should put in it!
    Also, I feel like I have to mention Nighteyes the Desecrator to play any creature from our graveyard and Lim-Dul the Necromancer, who not only steals steals our opponents monsters as zombies when they die, but can also regenerate any zombie we have. They're not zombies themselves, but they are a ton of fun and a ton of help.

    • @adamd1383
      @adamd1383 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@theepicrusins8779 well to start, narfi's so cheap you can get the showcase version for under a buck. After that you can snag new gisa, which has an effect quite similar to gravepact (doesnt make them zombies, and operates on a delay, but hey, its gisa!). There's also a new lord, bladestitched skaab, in innistrad midnight hunt.

    • @coreyronson2171
      @coreyronson2171 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can make a budget version of this by leaning more towards the blue zombies that self mill... And then over time buy the better cards and stay zombie slinging at your enemies for a long time.

  • @christisdel958
    @christisdel958 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Great deck tech for a Commander . I play this Commander and have a couple cards that make the deck extremely good. Paradox Engine is amazing especially with Cryptbreaker and Rooftop Storm in play. Plus an artifact from Saviors of Kamigawa - Ashes of the fallen worth a spot in the deck!

  • @KramerWaifu
    @KramerWaifu 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @ArgenCR
    @ArgenCR 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I run a very similar G&G deck.
    If you are playing against it, exile Gray Merchant, that thing get's out of hand very quickly!
    But this is such a fun deck to play, just remember that blue and black has no way to destroy enchantments or artifacts, so we have to live with them :I

  • @bigtacos1897
    @bigtacos1897 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    before I found this channel Ober a year ago I was always the worst player in my group but now with all the information about deck building and what cards work together I am such a better player. this is why I love the mtg community they're are so many people who will help new players.
    (ps. team gisa)

  • @plaguedr8831
    @plaguedr8831 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    So glad you made this video! G&G was my first EDH deck. Raving Dead, Zombie Trailblazer, Undead Alchemist, and Liliana's Reaver go well with Swampwalk. Agent of Erebos, Gemplalm Polluter, and Westvale Abby are all included in mine, along with Diabolic Vision and Walking Dead for some old school flavor. Cheers!

  • @kyleriley1733
    @kyleriley1733 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would LOVE to see you do some type of Hydra EDH build. I love using hydra's and I personally use "Rosheen Meanderer" as my commander. Hope to see you do a build of this in the future.

  • @ItsDKoda
    @ItsDKoda 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you're mentioning the Mikaeus Triskelion combo, and including so many sac outlets, Walking Ballista also works identically as an infinite damage combo if you're willing to put that 3rd piece on the board

  • @BOBSMITH-YouTubeStoleMyHandle
    @BOBSMITH-YouTubeStoleMyHandle 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would love to see an update to this decklist including the Battlebond and M19 cards. Both sets added some decent Zombies.

  • @ericjackman1143
    @ericjackman1143 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    PROFESSOR!
    I was literally in the process of building this deck! Thank you so much~!

  • @zombiemaster823
    @zombiemaster823 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Three cards that I would highly recommend one being rather flavorful the other not so much but can help immensely, Filth, Wonder and Necromancer's Stockpile. Filth and Wonder work so well from the grave giving both Swampwalk and Flying can really help you swing in for lethal and Necromancer's Stockpile can give slow but incremental card draw and token spawning.

  • @PenThoPlayer
    @PenThoPlayer 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was just thinking I wanted to see his take on a Sidisi zombie tribal, but this works, too.
    I guess next should be GIsela, Blade of Goldnight. It's always an interesting deck to see.

  • @sadee4175
    @sadee4175 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I wanted to make a commander deck with these two ever since I first saw them but being fairly new to magic I had no idea where to start but this was super helpful!

    • @sadee4175
      @sadee4175 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Update! I finally started trading and collecting what I need to build this deck. Thank you for making this video to give me the starting point I needed for this deck

  • @shawnshea8845
    @shawnshea8845 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Could you do Mayael the anima next please?!! I'm very interested in how you would build it despite my friends saying it's a weak card. I see major promise in her. You also make some of the best edh videos. It's not just the same monotone speak while flipping through the deck that most people do. It's some real effort and very appreciated.

    • @RomanNumerDos
      @RomanNumerDos 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

  • @zadoklittle9342
    @zadoklittle9342 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    This channel has hit almost every archetype in edh (Voltron, Tribal, +1/+1 counters, etc.) but one that Prof hasn't done is an Instant/Sorcery deck, so I think that should be the next build. Wort the Raidmother maybe?

  • @curtisnielsen1399
    @curtisnielsen1399 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I make budget decks and whike this may not be the most powerful i have it is one of the most fun to play. Can get very strong but needs a couple of extra turns to get going. My favorite zombie after passing ended up being Cleaver Scaab! Also, one of its biggest weaknesses ended up flying. Adding some flying zombies / shapeshifters, Hordewing Scaab, and Geralf, Visionary Stitcher help.

  • @TheWizno
    @TheWizno 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    River Kelpie makes this deck insane! Especially if Mikaeus is out. I would love to see your take on making a highly tuned Ulrich of the Krallenhorde deck. I think werewolf tribal presents a unique challenge with deck building due to flip mechanic.

  • @Kikasitsu
    @Kikasitsu 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I am honestly curious about your take with a Marath, Will of the Wild deck.
    Your choice on how to approach him is fine. I'm trying to do one myself without using Skull Clamp or Ashnod's Altar, trying to keep things in a flavor of "nature", and using the land base as a world building mechanism.
    (*I'm doing it with +1/+1 Counters and Tokens in mind, in case someone is wondering.)
