Deck Description

(EXTENEDED)
Thanks to some of your comments a few cards in this deck has change, rather than updating the deck description again due to the fact that i am lazy i am just going to edit the deck. lol. so some of the cards mentioned may or may not be in the final deck. thanks for all your comments.
This is a combo deck based on Perilous Forays.
The combo is Perilous Forays + bloodghast + lotus cobra
win condition is having ob nixilis, the fallen out when doing the combo or waiting til next turn and casting a deadly profane command.
The other cards help it along such as grazing gladehart to stay out of death range yourself.
I also included the golgari germination for when your going off to make an insane army of 1/1 that you can give fear with profane command next turn as well as damage them direct if the drain isnt enough by itself.
then the savra, queen of the golgari to eliminate any threats across the field from you. its fun to do half the combo with bloodghast paying 2 life each time to kill their creatures then once you have done that enough times if you have golgari germination out gain the life back by using them as the rest of the combo. of course maelstrom pulse and putrefy and disfigure to make sure you live long enough to pull off this combo.
it works well. im sure im not the first person to think of this combo, though as far as i know i am i have seen nothing like it online yet. i have been playing this deck testing it against people at local shops and it does really well. i know its a little expenssive but if you have the cards lying around throw it together its fun. thanks for looking. please comment with any ideas you may have to make this better and please rate! thanks.

Also with the saprolings try playing these creatures: Mycoloth, Thallid Germinator and Utopia Mycon.

Awesome idea! definitely get +1 rating here. Maybe ... one or two consume spirit, or a 4th profane command?

So pumped that everybody is digging this deck, I spent a lot of time on it. Like I said I'm really surprised I have not seen this done already, though the zendikar cards are pretty new. Thanks for all your ideas. I need to work up a sideboard for it.

Wow. It took me a minute to realize what was going on. Genius. Really good.

Deathgreeter would be an awesome card to have, incase you want another win condition (yeah stolen from ANON, but sometimes minds think alike lol)

Awesome.

deathgreeter is def cool and could gain some mad life in this deck i agree. its just really hard to fit him in. since i first posted this deck i dropped the grave pacts and 2 golgari germinations for 4 disfigure and it has proven to work much better. the biggest problem was aggro decks and while those other cards worked well against it the disfigure proved to get rid of most problems while the grave pact was sometimes a bit hard to play due to 1BBB and not effective at all early on forcing me to block and losing my cobras or gladehart, plus mr bloodghast cant block.

this looks like a very tasty extended deck, i like it a lot. i would think about adding Shred Memory to the deck to help with the searching out of ur combo, i always find that the transmute cards r invaluable to a combo deck, especially when u have multiple cards that cost the same, i would also consider adding Overgrown Tomb or Twilight Mire (or both) to help with the land choices, i always find that going with basically just the single lands never worked out for me, i always find myself mana screwed, so instead i utilize the duel lands. other then that this is great, and thanks for the comments on my deck, its good to know there is someone else out there that wont smack me down for wanting to use old cards

i agree with you on the land thing, i guess the main reason i am running only the fetch lands is because i can only grab basic land with the forays. the shred memory thing is def cool when i need that maelstrom pulse or even a gladehart to make my combo worth it but my biggest problem now is getting all 3 combo pieces. i hate running 4 perilous forays because i only need one out at a time but i need it for the combo...it is a pain in the a$$ when i need that 3rd card. and further more to make that card worth it such as having out ob nixilis the fallen or getting my profane comman...i wish there were more tutor cards available other than diabolic. im going to def check out other transmute cards though i never even thought of that. thanks.

I must admit that you inspire me to make a similar deck using your landfall combo. In mine, I used Sanguine Bond, Essence Warden, and Deathgreeter to thrash their life directly.

Why not play a grave pact instead of Savra?

also, genesis chamber might be faster than golgari germination

grave pact was in my original build, but it was a little harder to cast and savra allows me to gain life from the green saprolings. genisis chamber is a bit faster yes, but they are not green so no life gain there.

Golgari Rot Farm, and of course the other Ravnica bounce lands work well with the landfall thing, and give you the two mana. I would try some of those for a cheaper alternative. +1

Ok, read Perilous Forays again and give yourself a high-five: it fetches lands with a basic land type. So you can run duals (shock lands really) and not mess up your combo. And it fixes your mana! seems better. The deck idea's great (read: +1) but i'm wondering how you survive to cast forays? seems pretty unstoppable once that's out though.

Oh yeah, i forgot! you should run tarmogoyf, if you can get your hands on a playset, it improves your survivability to the late game so you can combo off. also burns their removal, because no one wants to see goyf in play on the other side.

YES! thanks man i didnt realize that about those lands. tarmofgoyf is a little much for me to spend considering this deck is extended and i play mostly standard but it would be great i agree.

another funny idea would be to put in life and limb so that whenever a saproling comes into play it triggers the landfall ability i think this works sorry if it doesnt

Dude, there are so many different ways to play off this combo. that's how you know its good. You could do mill, you could do the Sanguine Bond thing, there's straight horde aggro, yadda yadda yadda.

Good idea but you must accelerate deck... and no play with bad card...

From deck must go out this card...

Disfigure 3
Grazing Gladehart 4
Shred Memory 3

In deck go ...

Bird of paradise
Duress
Llanowar Elf
Harrow
or any good creature with persist... Kitchen finds i think...

Great, this is awsome, it's great how the Zendikar cards make it work. Maybe add GravPact for every time you sac Bloodghast, but honestly, I think it's awsome. Can you comment on my Vampire deck? +1 from me.
