Todays Featured Commander Is:
Borborygmos Enraged is a really sweet creature with a controversial tournament history, all controversies aside he is a super sweet super huge lands loving commander who is a ton of fun to play. This gigantic leader of the Gruul is so much fun to play and this is one of my favorite decks to be featured on the site. This deck has everything you could want in a lands deck and is packed to the brim with combos! Hope you enjoy this one as much as I do without further adieu lets get it!
The Deck:
Borborygmos Enraged Gruul Lands!
Why Borborygmos Enraged?
The main reason we chose Borborygmos Enraged is because he is not only a great big creature but helps us get more lands and helps us do a ton of damage with our lands. Borborygmos Enraged is just the full package we are looking for in a lands commander and he is truly the real deal. While the deck is a little weaker without Borborygmos Enraged out we can easily win the game through combos without him. This deck is so much fun!
Deck Overview:
This section contains information about cards in the deck and how they function within the deck! For explanations of the combos please refer to the “Main Win Conditions” section below!
Creatures:
While we don’t have a ton of creature ramp we do have a lot of ways to ramp in our instant and sorcery package, many of our creatures allow us to play extra lands like Oracle of Mul Daya
, Azusa, Lost but Seeking
and Dryad of the Ilysian Grove
all of these are great ways to make our lands better and get more of them!
Solphim, Mayhem Dominus
is a really cool card that allows us to double Borborygmos’s damage and this can be great whether we are targeting creatures or players. Titania, Protector of Argoth
is a really cool card that lets us make creatures for us sacrificing lands which is something that we can do very easily!
Planeswalkers:
We only have one planeswalker but wow is he good! Wrenn and Six
is mostly a way to get key lands back or just to discard to Borborygmos and get some damage in! We don’t typically use Wrenn and Six’s minus but their ult can be helpful with recasting cards like Splendid Reclamation
or Scapeshift
!
Instants:
One of my favorite instants in the deck is Crop Rotation
which is a great way to sacrifice a land and get whatever land you want! Another really cool card is Constant Mists
which is another sacrifice outlet but this one is attached to a fog! We also have some good pieces of interaction like Force of Vigor
, Beast Within
and Return to Nature
. We don’t have the most extensive instant package but they are all very impactful!
Sorceries:
We lose a lot of lands whether this be through discard or through sacrifice so cards like Splendid Reclamation and Creeping Renaissance
which are both great ways to get our lands back! Triumph of the Hordes
is deadly in pretty much any deck but especially in a deck like this with direct damage from our commander being very possible! My favorite sorcery in the deck is Praetor's Counsel
which is a really cool card to get our stuff back and not have hand size restrictions anymore!
Artifacts:
Crucible of Worlds
and Conduit of Worlds
are both great ways to recur our land and plays very well into the cards that let us play extra land drops per turn! Storm Cauldron
is a really cool card that will not only annoy your opponents but can be a great way for us to get key lands that we put on the field back into our hands!
Enchantments:
Burgeoning
and Exploration
are both great ways to get some awesome land drops in early and start ramping like crazy! Sylvan Library
is a great card that helps us a ton since we are in green and on average don’t draw a lot of cards! City on Fire
with Borborygmos and a bunch of lands in hand can be an instant speed death sentence for our opponents!
Land Base:
Our land base is very atypical since we can put a ton of lands on the field and we also benefit from having lands sacrificed we can run cards like Lotus Field
and Wasteland
and Strip Mine
all of which are not all too common in CEDH. Since we love discarding lands and drawing we are playing every cycling land that we can possibly play. Maze of Ith
is a great land that protects us from huge single attackers. Dark Depths
can be a really easy way to end the game since we also have a Vesuva
and Thespian's Stage
!
Strengths of the Deck:
- Easy to ramp a ton
- Easy to recur our lands
- Deck is pretty fast and does not need much to go off
Weaknesses of the Deck:
- Weak to graveyard hate
- Deck is noticeably worse without commander
- Weak to creature hate
