Commander Deck Reviews / Simic Chonkers - Arena Historic Brawl

« on: April 21, 2022, 07:21:13 pm »

Simic Chonkers

Hey there fine fellow planeswalkers!

I am loosing every single match I play with my current Simic Historic Brawl deck, commanded by Lonis, Cryptozoologist. So, in an effort to loose less I'm re-making the deck, starting with a new Commander: Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy.

Hopefully, I cast commander early and capitalize on mana dorks and artifacts to really ramp up mana production, then use said ramp to produce VERY CHONK creatures. Win con being more combat focused.

All cards in this deck are able to be used in the MTG:A game and can be crafted if needed. For the same reason, the maybe board is full of other things you might sub in should you wish.

Suggestions always helpful, but please keep in mind this deck is meant to work on MTG:A. Thank you in advance!

Thanks to Maddog MacBride for the great suggestions! I left off Elvish Piper due to her easy removal of being a 1/1, Champion of Rhonas as he is a 3/3 and doesn't trigger several things in the deck (although his exert ability did nearly make me throw him in anyway), Wordly Tutor because of it's cost and I always seem to play against mill decks, and finally Wood Elf because I don't know what card they were trying to reference there.

Now, the eliminating process begins.

Revision 5

Added/removed cards:
+1 Elemental Bond
+1 Goreclaw, Terror of Qal Sisma
+1 Krosan Drover

Set up deck so any legendary dual colored creature/planeswalker was in the commander area. All of them are potential commanders for this deck for different purposes.

Added/removed cards:
-1 Sunpetal Grove

+1 Forest
+1 Plains

After working for a few minutes, took out some high cost, low effect cards. Refined the focus to a two fold plan. Green sends out creatures to fight (fight abilities within planeswalkers useful now, not just a sweet addon) and to play big chunk defense. White will be focusing on sending out and creating 1/1's with Lifelink. We have two ways to start putting +1/+1 counters on creatures when it gains life.

In the future, may switch out the commander to Shalai, Voice of Plenty for some extra protection from gotcha spells. Will think on that for now though.

Revision 3

Added/removed cards:
-1 Gargos, Vicious Watcher
-1 Hornet Queen
-1 Wildborn Preserver
