Hey all... First, I want to say I am relatively new to the commander format. That being said, this is a new commander deck I've been Working on but I need to trim down a few more cards before I add lands. Any and all help appreciated! :)

Welcome to the wonderful world of Commander!

Some cards I noticed are weak within the deck are:

-Primal Druid: Being able to only do the ability whenever it dies just makes it worse than  {Sakura-Tribe Elder}. Also without a sac outlet I wouldn't even consider it.

-Old Ghastbark: You have bigger, cheaper creatures than this one.

-Sheltering Word: This card is too situational. And if you wanted to run something like this effect, I'd prefer {Vines of Vastwood}.

-Map the Wastes: In my personal opinion, not that great for a ramp card. Would much rather run  {Cultivate} or  {Skyshroud Claim}.

Otherwise the deck looks good! Lmk if you need any more advice, I'd love to help.

Also, after looking over the list pergrination and the new Daretti seem out of place within the deck. Yes Daretti makes a token, but you have such few artifacts to abuse his other abilities that I feel Bitterblossom would do much better for you.

I could have missed it but I didn't see food chain within your deck, incase you didn't know that goes infinite with your commander. Hope that helps

Recurring nightmare is mega banned in edh.

I've been running this for a little whole, and been really weak to mono blue EDH card draw & bounce decks. I just switched {Hallowed Burial} with {Capsize} but still seems a bit slow in EDH. Any recommendations welcome, I also haven't got a sideboard but I know I cannot react to many triggers.

Deck can cook off well, but as I said there's probably some things that could be switched out (I know I'm running a few themes)

Am also wanting to run {Containment Priest} against {Meren of clan nel toth) reanimator decks, I go up against them fairly often &  typically all built the same. Thoughts?

Against Meren, run {Rest in peace} and against mono blue decks, run {City of Solitude}

Before anyone comments, I'd like to point out that this is a Combo deck, as the name states, built around the card Second Sunrise. The goal of the deck is to cycle through Yor deck with your "Eggs", create loads of mana with cards like Krark-clan Ironworks to Comet Storm our opponents to death, or prowess double strike Shu Yun to victory.

Any advice is greatly appreciated as always. The land base is the toughest part for me to figure out. Thanks!

Thinking seriously hard about building this. Thus list seems so sweet! Took me a while to finish up the trimming but I like where it ended up.

Deck seems solid, surprised it's not running the {Pattern of Rebirth} combo within it. Also, why {Anguish Unmaking} over {Vindicate}? (Other than the obvious instant speed) I've found {Vindicate} to be much more useful, as lands is a big problem within my playgroup. Otherwise, seems like how a Karador deck should be built

I couldn't find room for Pattern, any ideas? It came down to the line with that and a few others.

As far as Anguish over Vindicate, literally just because it exiles. I agree with the lands, but indestructible targets are pretty rampant among my group.

fair enough, and the. Enchantment combos with {boonweaver giant}, but idk what you might take out lol

Started out as a  {Sidisi, Brood Tyrant} zombie/infect bs, but I hated the commander and didn't want all the hate that came with playing an infect deck so I decided to tweak it over. Tell me what you guys think anything I could replace?( I would kill for a Zombie Lord loll)

I'm interested to know why you don't like Sidisi as your commander. I have a tribal zombie build with her at the helm and she's amazing.
As far as zombie lords:
{Death Baron}
{Diregraf Captain}

I'll post more later and bump my list for you.

Anyone at all. Don't all comment at once! :)

{Seton, Krosan Protector} is who I'm building next for my 1 or each color EDH decks, any useful cards to ramp into other than the typical big green beat sticks?

Re-visited my Lin-Sivvi deck and added some newer cards!

{Crucible of Worlds}?

It is in the deck :)

{Liliana of the Dark Realms} seems like she'd fit

She's one of my fav walkers for commander if you have black. I counted 5 swamps which isn't much but not the worst.

Maybe  {Smallpox}?

Still undecided if I want to run {pox} type effects yet within the deck, but something I could look into.

On the note of liliana, I don't like her in the deck. Also as you pointed out, low swamp count.

{courser of kruphix}
{creeping renaissance}
{avenger of zendikar}
Seem effective here.

Massacre wurm seems out of place.

Avenger seems good, probably will replace massacre wurm whenever I get one. Only reason I added massacre wurm was after about 6-7 games of testing I realized I had problems with large amounts of creatures, thus why I added in wraths as well.
