Another stupid idea

[Sparkle Ninja]

I was thinking about making a {Borborygmos Enraged} deck that's all about ramping up into him then just throwing my entire hand at the opponent for an instant commander damage victory

[FustyDavorite]

This is a wonderful idea

[Splicer]

That sounds awesome.

Commander damage must be combat damage. So discarding land for damage with Borby doesn't count towards Com. Dam.

you've ruined my day

And mine

My bad...

[Sparkle Ninja]

It could still be a fun deck. Just throw tons of land at the opponent.

I can throw mine in to the app if you want to look at it.  It hasn't been updated in a while, but I'm sure it will give you some ideas.

Can I get a link to this ruling?

I had a 62 land borborygmos deck. It was basically a combo deck. It was not a guaranteed combo but it used illusionist bracers  {Snake Umbra} and  {Keen Sense} to draw through my deck. The other spells were ways to either double damage or recur lands to my hand like  {Nostalgic Dreams}. It typically lethal damaged a table of 4-5 players on like turn ten.

I've always though that him combined with  {Life from the Loam} could be a fun mix. Especially if you throw in card draw and disgusting mana ramp.

That's brutal

104.3j In a Commander game, a player that's been dealt 21 or more combat damage by the same commander over the course of the game loses the game. (This is a state-based action. See rule 704. Also see rule 903.14.)

Loam, combined with {Snake Umbra}/{Keen Sense} or any of the lands that cycle themselves is just insanely powerful.  I've killed people from almost nowhere just by getting that to happen.  Add in {Illusionist's Bracers} for overkill.  One time I got that set up, an opponent cast a removal spell, and I killed half the table in response, just by drawing more and more land and bolting twice for each one.

Also, {Abundance} goes all wombo-combo with Umbra/Sense.  Totally worth including.
