Cut-Rate Commander - Episode 89 - Featuring Amalia Benavides Aguirre from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan & her companion - Lurrus of the Dream-Den #mtg #edh #commander #mtgixalan #mtglci

Hey Folks! Submitted for your approval, we have our 2nd Cut-Rate Commander build for The Lost Caverns of Ixalan – this time covering the life gaining boardwipe on a body - Amalia Benavides Aguirre – and her reanimating companion - Lurrus of the Dream-Den.

In this build, we'll be aiming to amass life as frequently and consistently as we can in order to get as much value out of Amalis's explore as we can - ensuring we make our land drops, empowering her with counters, and filling up our bin with permanents her companion (Lurrus) to reanimate for us. From there, its just a matter of gaining more and more life via the multitude of repeatable life gain sources we'll be casting / reanimating, keeping Amalia and Lurrus alive for as long as possible thanks to the suite of self sacing protection creatures we'll be running (which we can just bring right back into play thanks to Lurrus), and ticking up to Amalia's boardwipe so she can level the board so she can clear the way for her to one shot our opponents with her 20+ worth of commander damage - all while we can simple mass reanimate our entire creature base to do so all over again if we need to.

Let me know if the comments below if you agree with my choices and/or what you would add to the deck instead. Also, let me know know who you would like to see next by voting on in the comments on the three choices of commander listed at the end of the video.
