Deck Description

Has anyone ever combined green and black to create a dragon beatdown deck?
Well, first time for everything, I guess!

This is a Budget Elder Dragon Highlander deck (BEDH for short). It is meant for the Elder Dragon Highlander format, a.k.a. Commander. If you are not familiar with the format, I'll link it below for you.

I mostly use MTG Vault for my own private projects nowadays, but feel free to comment or request a deck of your choice. I've loved the Vault so far, and I like that they are still improving on it, as well as I am improving on my English language skills.

So, if you like what you see, consider checking out some of my other budget-y work from the link below.

How to Play

Well, I guess I lied a bit since this deck isn't completely about dragons. Can't completely blame me though, since Golgari colors don't have that many (cheap) options!

This deck attempts to drop Skanos onto the field, then whack the living hell out of people using him and his badass partner-enchantment-thingie. Alternatively, you can try dropping a dragon or two and beating people using them instead.

In addition to these options, this deck specializes in forcing unfortunate combat phases to your enemies. Numerous instant-speed responses can secure you a safe combat, while forced block + deathtouch + indesctructible combinations can really ruin your opponent's day. Several boardwipes and go-wide type of removals can thus generate card advantage even when this deck runs short on it!


Statistics, pros and cons:

Statistics: (out of 5)
- Deck Speed: <><><> (How quick the deck is?)

- Card Synergy: <><><> (Do the cards of the deck help out each other well?)
- Card Value: <><> (How much card advantage can you get out of your cards?)
- Level of Complexity: <><><> (How hard this deck is to properly play?)

Pros:
+ Can make every combat a proper pain in the ass (for your enemies)!
+ Can either smack people up with its commander or drop a couple of big fliers and go to town.
+ Quite a lot of responses for enemy actions.

Cons:
- Quite low on card advantage, outside of mass-murder options.
- Doesn't like enemy graveyard hate. (Though isn't completely neutralized by it.)
