Some special notes about this deck :P
1: Win condition? What's a win condition? There is none here, the entire purpose of this deck is to make the game as fun and bizarre as possible for laughs! I did choose to include the {Maze's End} win condition with {Scapeshift} so the deck is actually capable of a win, and with this condition as a win it allows for the fun of the game to continue even after I win for more insanity to occur.
2: my strategy for not dying is to politically convince players to not hurt me because I will make the game hilarious.
3: this deck is a terrible idea, but it's going to be funny, and I want to do it :D
As you can see, it's a few cards over, I'm down to the final few cuts and could use some advice. Based on the fact that this deck is simply for amusement, laughs, and having fun, any input along those lines is welcome :)

Haha, pretty much. I laughed out loud when I first saw {Grip of Chaos}, and said "Yup, this deck is happening."
{Possibility Storm} seems like a great card for this.
It's in there, and I love it ;)
I was doing a sample draw last night and noticed something I hadn't seen before. {Obliterate} destroys lands, creatures, and artifacts... NOT enchantments, which are the bread and butter of the shinanegans of this deck. I laughed out loud when I noticed what would happen when this happened with my deck.
SOME IS USING {CHAOS LORD}!!!
My hat is off to you Gorzo!!!
I know you're already a few cards over but what about {Goblin Bomb}? If you're looking for take out suggestions, maybe {Manabarbs}? If anything ticks players off more its land restriction (I learnt that from my LD obsession days).
Quote from: Spikepit on August 31, 2013, 06:51:25 PM
SOME IS USING {CHAOS LORD}!!!
That last ability... Might want a {Phelldagryph}!!!
Getting down to crunch time!
- {Bazaar Trader}. He doesn't give enchantments! So he's going to be pretty worthless to me, even if I get him out together with Zedruu.
And I realized at this point, I only have 9 creatures in the deck. None of which are essential. So...
- {Worldly Tutor}
- {Lightning Greaves}
And along those lines...
- {Mass Polymorph}
+ {Proteus Staff}
I still want the staff, because I will be stealing creatures with chaos, and polymorphing them will be hilarious. But mass Polymorph is not at all necessary.
Only 3 cuts to go!
Cut mana barbs. Too expensive for too little damage.
- {Curse of Exhaustion}
- {Rampant Growth}
+ {Explosive Vegetation}
I thought about cutting manabarbs, but then during a sample draw, I had {sphere of safety} + 7 enchants out, played {manabarbs}, then {Obliterate}. I literally laughed out loud when I though about how players would react to this tactic. I have to do it.
This one might raise some eyebrows, but...
- {Sol Ring}.
I have a lot of ramp in here that makes up for it, and {Thran Dynamo} is still there to do work.
Plus, the raise in the ring's price tag has me shying away. The revised edition now costs less than the commander edition. That's just silly.
But the new art is sooo pretty...(in foil)

But the new art is sooo pretty...(in foil)
I've actually never seen it in foil. I wish you could get the old art in foil - I love the whole "Eye of Sauron" thing it has going on :P
I need one more measly cut. I'm considering cutting a land, honestly, but running less than 40 in a 5 color deck scares me a bit. It should be okay with the ramp, though, right? Maybe?
It'll work! You get a free mull in EDH anyways...
I'd say it's done then! Or at least, it was until I got the cards out and saw the {Grand Melee} I'd been saving for the deck. Hmm... Can it make it in somehow...
Also found a copy of...
+ {Increasing Ambition}
Which will replace...
- {Diabolic Tutor}
Kind of a shame, I love the art on Diabolic tutor. But having the option to use the card a second time (and search for an additional 2 cards) makes it worth the extra 1 mana to cast initially. And it's not double-black, which is also nice.
I would love to play a 4+ player game with this deck on the field, holy crap that just sounds awesome! Almost every set has that one terrible red card, ({Scrambleverse}, {Possibility Storm} etc.) and I've always speculated what would that card actually do? I love EDH for the crazy interactions and political appeal, but this deck completely changes the game, literally. Well done sir, this deck is fantastic!
Many thanks! I've edited the deck post now that cuts and changes have been made. And the last of the cards I need to make the deck are in the mail (yay amazon reward points! Nothing like a free EDH deck!)
I do wish I could find room for {Grand Melee} and {Goblin Bomb} though :P
Can someone explain how the card {Goblin Game} works? I'm totally confused!
Quote from: Antirayman on September 08, 2013, 04:39:44 PM

It's a super fun card. Everyone writes down a number or covers small objects with their hand (coins, dice, etc). They are all revealed at the same time. Everyone loses life equal to the number they wrote down or how many things they covered up. Whoever had the lowest number then loses a whopping half of their life total! The idea is use a number high enough to avoid being the lowest (so you don't lose half your life), but low enough that you aren't flat-out crippled by the life lost from just hiding stuff!
Example!
-Jim plays {Goblin Game}. All players laugh.
- Jim writes down 4 on a scrap of paper. Nick hides 6 pennies. Steve hides 3 dice. Shawn hides 4 M&Ms.
- Players reveal their numbers. Steve loses 3 life, Shawn and Jim lose 4, and Nick loses 6 life.
- Steve loses half of his remaining life total - he lost the goblin game!

Was doing a random search and found a car that would be perfect for this deck: {{Teferi's Realm}}
lol, that is pretty funny. Not sure what I'd be able to take out for it though. I'm still struggling with not being able for {Grand Melee} in :P
{Teferi's Puzzle Box} could be fun, too.
Might I ask how much this deck costs?
Quote from: FlickerYourOwnIdentity on September 14, 2013, 10:25:41 PM
Might I ask how much this deck costs?
It's one of the cheapest (if not the outright cheapest) commander decks I've ever built. Tcg averages the deck at $105. A vast majority of the cards are .50 cents or less.
The only reason it's up to 100 is because of 5 cards in particular - {Scapeshift}, {Idyllic tutor}, {Chaos Warp}, {Thran Dynamo}, and {Homeward Path}. Another 7~ish comes from the shards tri-lands ({Jungle shrine}, etc) if you want to budget the deck, find replacements for these and you'll be down to about $65 for the whole deck.
Umm... Oops, I accidentally broke Magic with this deck.
{Endless Whispers} + {Spreading Plague} + 2 creatures that share a color = endless loop.
Whoopsies!
You know I'm going to start doing this on purpose now. :D
{Child of Alara} and {Karona, the False God} could be better commanders...
Bah, I misread {Endless Whispers} - happens at the end step :( I'm sad now. Still funny, though. Read the card, Gorzo, read the card.
I thought about child and Karona, but settled on Cromat and am happy with my choice. He gives me some much needed self-preservation that Karona does not, and I don't have any need for board wipes with this deck to use Child. No ways to re-use child if I let it go to the graveyard, either. Cromat gives me ground to stand on.
Bump for Matteo!
I must say, after playing this deck now for a couple months...
It.
Is.
Sooooooo fun.
Half the time it even looks like I'm screwing myself, and I love it.
"Did you just play {Scapeshift} into {Maze's End} and 9 gates, cast {Blood Moon}, and then play the 10th gate?"
"Yep."
"So they're just 11 tapped mountains that can't win you the game?"
"Yep!"
"...Wtf is wrong you?"
"Don't worry about it, it'll be fine."

Lol thanks a lot!! Also I haven't checked it out yet is it expensive $wise?
It's actually pretty dang cheap. Avg $105 on tcg for the whole deck right now. And most of that is going to be from 5-10 cards, a vast majority of this decklist is .25-.50 cent cards.
Awesome! Then I shall build this deck (with your permission lol) bc I love my Uril deck but its not fun I want a fun deck!
No permission necessary, just have fun with it!
If you can, make sure to at least once get {Sphere of Safety} up with 7-10 enchantments total (including {Mana Barbs}), then bite the bullet, pay as much life as you need to tap the mana for {Obliterate}, and wait to see how long it takes for everyone to figure out what you just did.
This is amazing. I don't have any 5-color commanders, but I think I'd like to try something like this using using maybe Zedruu as the commander. Thanks for posting!

Zedruu was the original commander I had in mind when I started building this, actually! I eventually found myself needing to add green for much needed mana ramp and fixing, and black for tutors as well as a few super fun enchants like {Endless Whispers}. I settled on {Cromat} for his ease of casting and ultimate defensive powers of regen and destroying anything he blocks, and he's worked wonders for me.
I love this deck!!! I've been running a five color upkeep deck as my "fun" deck and my friend knows I have paradox haze and assemble the legion so I get focused. :( this looks like an infinitely more fun deck and I am deffiently give this a shot.
May it serve you as we'll as it has been serving me!
I am probably going to have to make a couple tweaks once I finally get to mess with some Commander2013 stuff. {Ranger's Path} is definitely getting replaced by the green Tempting Offer spell. I am probably going to remove {Knowledge Pool} for something more fun and less annoying, too. Possibly another tempting offer.
Honestly considering spending the $100 on this deck hahaha. {Chaos Lord} is hilarious. Can attack as if it has haste, except if it entered the battlefield this turn? Haha

I invested in it and let me tell you it is AWESOME!!! Lol if you play it fun it's great but I made adjustments so that it's slightly competitive. Lol I played a 1v1 vs. {Sen Triplets} and he got manascrewed lol so he played a 3 mana spell and was tapped out on my turn I play {sire of insanity} and end lol he discarded a JtMS, {Grand Arbiter Augustin IV} Omniscience and a few other great cards lol next turn I top deck {Sepulchral Primordial} get his {Grand Arbiter Augustin IV} so now he has to pay {1} more per spell and he was already manascrewed lol!
Also add {Door to Nothingness} for even more fun!!
How viable is this deck in 1v1, are there any cards you would add to increase its durability.

Very viable! Make some changes to lower the CMC but once you get out some good enchantments its great I play it with {Assemble the Legion} as well as {Sphere of Safety} and it's just great lol
I'm thinking abou playing this deck with {karona, false god} as the commander......
Quote from: blackychan1 on December 07, 2013, 12:13:22 PM

That's what I use! Want me to post my list it's slightly different I have a couple more win cons bc I still do like to win lol
I like Karona a lot, but settled on {Cromat} because he's a champion of a blocker. No 5-color legendary will keep you as safe as Cromat does.
But like Matteo says, Karona is a very viable commander for the deck! You'll probably want to make a few tweaks (as he did) to keep yourself protected, since Cromat is a major defensive player in my version.
{Assemble the legion} + {Zedru the Greathearted} is a combo that I recommend to all every turn donate x soldiers then you get y more to defend and draw x cards and gain x life there's just too many great combos!!

Honestly I should add Assembe the Legion right now, I don't know why I don't have it in. Pretty sure I have one in a trade binder somewhere - goodbye knowledge pool.
That's what I took out too! Lol it's just too confusing for me but it works amazing with possibility storm as now I have a knowledge pool and they have to pos. storm lol
Bump for Machete and Spencer!
Also an update! Made a few swaps:
- {Conjured Currency} (sad face:()
+{Whims of the Fates} (Wheeeee!)
-{Tide of War}
+{Witch Hunt}
-{Thieve's Auction} (just too annoying, as chaotic and funny as it is. And it took way too long)
+{Mystic Barrier}

This is awesome!!!
Do you mind if I steal this idea a bit? :P
I love playing annoying and hilarious decks, so I think this one should be fun. :D
What about some additions like:
{Greater Auramancy}
{Command Tower}
{Plea for Guidance}
Some other infinite combos so you have more of a chance of winning.
Also, what would you suggest if I wanted to tweak this to be able to play it in a smaller game? (3-4 people, maybe)
Oh! And what about {Pyxis of Pandemonium}? That would be very fun!
I like it. Kinda like what I'm trying to do.

I don't mind at all! I'm honored when people like my crazy ideas enough to play them for themselves :)
All good card suggestions as well.
Honestly {Command Tower} could just replace {Vivid Crag} (it's important to keep the basics the way they are due to the land searches and {Blood Moon}). The reasons I didn't include it originally were A) I didn't have any towers on hand at the time, B) I wanted to keep the decklist cheap and command tower is pretty expensive (for this deck, anyway, which only has 5 or 6 cards at $5 or more), and C) my vivid crag is foil, which is so shiny and pretty! Wheeeeee! :P but now that the deck is built, and I have a couple of 2013 towers, I'll probably make the swap.
The Born tutor for two enchants is really nice. But it's a lot of mana and I don't know what I'd take out for it.
{Greater Auramancy} would be great. I need to get a copy of it. It was originally excluded due to cost, and not a massive impact, as I was trying to keep the budget down. But now that the deck is complete.... I can definitely see trading for a copy and swapping out {Puca's Mischief} for it.
As for the Pyxis...i considered it. But It seemed too annoying and too dangerous to activate unless I happen to have {insurrection} ready. So I opt not to include it.
{Reins of Power} seems good here
Okay Gorzo, you have me convinced on 5 color for this insanity.

Awesome, I got {Scapeshift} and a {Howling Mine} at a draft today. Is commander tower from commander 2013 expensive now? It shouldn't be too bad any more.

The decision was a lot harder when I just didn't have any {Command Tower}s to put in ;) Now that I do, I can move the foil Vivid to another deck and replace it with the tower. I might want to add {Opal Palace}, too, making my super defensive master Cromat even more powerful after board wipes finally get him.
Replace {Taurean mauler} with {reins of power}?

The point of this deck (for me anyway) is to almost never win. The point for me is to disrupt (in a fun way) all the broken decks and to just laugh. My madness deck which was derived from this deck (thank you Gorzo!) has 3 win cons non are good lol
Wincon #1: {Mazes End} and {Scapeshift}
Wincon #2: {Door to Nothingness} lol
Wincon #3: {Karona False God} (my general) and {Assemble the Legion} lol
So basically this deck is just for shits lol survive until you can play {Warp World} lol

i'm extremely sorry to be off topic, but mishra, could you check your pm's? I think I'm only missing yours to go on to the next wall draft pack.
Sorry again, gorzo and everyone.
Also, what about {akroan horse} and {djinn of infinite deceits}?
(dovescape) is a realy fun way to mess up a game lol
If {Dovescape} didn't ruin my ability to cast all of my crazy enchantments, I'd probably use it :P it is a fun card. Unfortunately it would completely kill my own ability to cast anything.
I'm not sure that {Akroan Horse} has a big enough impact, but I do love {Djinn of Infinite Deceits}. Especially after {Assemble the Legion} is out - take any creature in exchange for a 1/1 soldier! Hmm, how can I squeeze that in...

What about {Door to Nothingness}?
It's by far my favourite card in my version of this!!!!
Fifth dawn flavor text is brutal. First time I read it, I felt like someone had punched me right in the emotions.

Oh wow
Why don't I have door to nothingness in here? I honestly can't think of a reason why not. I'll have to squeeze it in, too!

Memnarch is awesome. He's like The Master in Doctor Who only he is an artifact creature
So...
Cards I want to add:
{Greater Auramancy}
{Reins of Power}
{Door to Nothingness}
{Djinn of Infinite Deceits}
{Crucible of Worlds}
{Veldaken Orrery}
But what can I cut to add these 6?
{Puca's Mischief} is one. It usually isn't doing much for me. Maybe {Timesifter} for another? I love the hilarity and randomness of the card, but all of the exiling hurts me as well. What else can I cut? I don't really want to cut {Taurean Mauler}. I just really like him, and he's great for playing defensive.
I'll also be swapping a couple lands.
-Forest
-{Vivid Crag}
+{Opal Palace}
+{Command Tower}
Need help! What can I cut?
How useful are the different vows? ({vow of flight}, etc)

It's hard to say. They're hit or miss, but to the extreme. When they hit, they completely save my life. When they miss, they're a waste of a card. And they seem to be pretty evenly split at about 50/50 when it comes to how often they hit and miss. I can probably cut one ({Vow of malice}, black is my weakest/least common color) but I'm not sure how many more I can cut without making myself more vulnerable
If you could cut one for some of the stuff you wanted to add, that might be good.
Karona the fals god would be a fun general works kinda like coat of arms mixed with chaos lord

That's the general that I chose :P
Bumped for reasons! :)
I need to keep looking at this so I'm bumping it

I run this deck in the form of {Karona the True God} so if you any questions ask me! :P
Bump for DimirOverlord
I've been slowly building this, looking forward to when it's complete!
Also, I added {chromanticore} because WHY NOT, and {perplexing chimera}, which is actually useful. The chromanticore doesn't do much and takes up a card slot but the chimera is hilarious. I'd consider it.
Perplexing Chimera is really funny. What would I take out, though? Another vow, maybe?
Maybe, those seem so hit or miss and die when board wipes happen. Plus you shouldn't be that much of a target...
Perplexing chimera is a bunch of fun. Just remember to come armed with your advanced rules knowledge. Especially if Chimera double triggers, and who gets control of him and the redirect. I run him in Roon, and I've had to explain it in great detail.
{Goblin Test Pilot} + {Serendib Sorcerer} is a cool combo. Kill any creature the test pilot hits. :)

That's what I use {Mannichi, the Fevered Dream} for :P oh, what's that you have? Ulamog? Well, now he's an 0/2. And now he's a 2/0 and dead. Goodbye indestructible Eldrazi god, go suck a lemon!
Updated. I'm definitely adding Perplexing Chimera, probably taking out a Vow.
Thanks for updating!
Bump on request.
I'm so building this.
It really is a lot of fun. I'm considering foiling it as much as I can. I wish I could get a foil Cromat, he's just so cute!
I do NOT want to shell out the cash for a foil {Scapeshift} though lol
They made a foil {Cromat}, it's $20.
As for {Scapeshift}, that's about $40. It's not crazy considering you want to foil a deck out.

There is a foil Cromat? Yay! I'll have to find one!
Yeah, $40 isn't too bad, but my budget is pretty tight. I don't like spending that much on singles - but that is in potential trade range. I'd just have to find someone with one for trade.
I hate to bump old threads, but I just want to say I spent $60 to buy the rest of the deck that I didn't have and am SUPER EXCITED!!
To be slightly helpful, what do you think of the new tri-lands? So far I've replaced crumbling necropolis with the new Jeskai monastery, whatever it's called.
Pyxis DEFINITELY deserves a spot here...that card is just so much fun and so chaotic and it's cheap! Perfect card for this kind of deck
I'll definitely have to tinker with the tri-lands now that khans gives me more options. I'd love to put all 10 in, but I really need the basics for all the land grab spells and/or {blood moon}.
{Pyxis of Pandemonium} was one of those cards that I wanted to use, but it just couldn't make the cut. It got edged out because of how slow it is if you want it to actually have a big effect. Plus I have a lot of non-permanents, so it very well may hurt me more than help me.
Sadly nothing very chaotic has been made since {Perplexing Chimera}... So nothing new to add to the deck that I can think of :(
Posting here because reasons. Haha
{grip of chaos} reminds me, oddly, of the Joker. Just takes peoples' plans, and turns them upside down.
Seeing a pile of unsleeved proxies and thieve's auction, endless whispers, scrambleverse, etc all sitting in my deck box makes me happy...
Oh you monster, you put {thieves auction} back in? You cruel, cruel man.
I love the spell... It's hilarious... But people really groan and hate it when it happens. I've had entire games scoop because they didn't want to spent the time drafting everything. It really does take a long time... So I ended up cutting it for something less agitating :P
I'm going to see how it goes and then decide. Chances are it won't resolve when I cast anyway, and sometime like a {warp world} will happen instead :P
Bump for Jamb.
Any of the new commander cards a good fit for this deck?
{Blood Feud} all day!
No wait that's not it. Let me look up what I really mean.
{Bitter Feud}.
Also, I thought anyone dealing damage to one of the players would just deal it to the other. So maybe it's not as good as I thought.

Ty for bump. Building a Bolas chaos (RUB), this really helps me with ideas. Though mine will have more of a mean streak because well, Bolas flavour.
