Deck Description

My second attempt at an EDH deck. My first went horribly so I still just need some advice. The unlove option didn't do it for me. Any and all suggestions are welcome. Of course reasons as to why are encouraged as well as what it would replace, how it combos or what the general idea behind a suggestion is.

Currently contemplating over whether or not to use Sun Quan, Lord of Wu. I want this to work for both multiplayer and Single player but would choose Single over Multi if I had to choose one.

How to Play

Examples of this in action so far: (Been playtesting)
(Best so far)
Turn 1- Ancient tomb --> Sol ring --> Coalition Relic --> charge counter on relic
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Turn 2- Grand coliseum (6 mana open) --> tap ancient tomb + sol ring + charge counter for green --> cast skyshroud claim --> (2 G + 1 colorless open) --> Manaplasm --> Tap for charge counter
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Turn3- Command tower (10 mana open) --> 2 forests + Grand coliseum + Command tower + Sol ring + Coalition relic + charge counter --> Maelstrom Wanderer --> Manaplasm becomes 9/9. Cascade --> Acidic slime (destroy a land) Manaplasm becomes 14/14. Cascade --> Concentrate --> draw 3 cards --> Manaplasm becomes 18/18 --> Swing for 27 damage. (hand of 5)

Deck discussion for Maelstrom EDH

I don't know much about EDH, but I was pulled to this because I saw Cascade. You should consider the enchantment that gives all your spells cascade, to add to the craziness due to the way Cascade stacks. Why did you mark the deck as unloved though?

In EDH you can only use cards that use the same colors as your commander so I can only use Red, Blue, and Green spells is why I don't have it in there. It's unloved because I can't seem to get any help or opinions on the deck. This is only my second EDH deck I've made and I want to make sure it's good.

Command Child of alara, and rock out all the cascade cards. Wanderer on his own is a different deck entirely. The big trick with cascade is to hit your win cards for free. Examples are: Crule Ultimatum, Violent Ultimatum, Other Cascade, Dreadboar, Terminate, est

Other ways to abbuse it is to have creatures that generate swarms or go super freinds cascade.

I will soon build a deck similar to this and I will try to work in two cards that I don't see in your deck list. They are Enter the Infinite , Borborygmos, the Enraged and quite a few more lands. Just in case you don't know what would happen if you pulled this off, I will enlighten. 1st have Borborygmos out then play Enter the Infinite = draw your deck and discard all lands thanks to Borborygmos ability. That will = 3 damage to the dome of an opponent per land that you drop from your hand and victory for you.

That sounds awesome. I look forward to seeing the deck when it's done. I would like to see the differences you make and how you make the combo work as efficiently as possible.
