<p>Everyone knows the best creature ever to grace Magic<em>: The Gathering </em>is <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Colossal Dreadmaw" href="#" target="_blank">Colossal Dreadmaw</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. It's a fearsome trampling threat that eats everything in its path. So let's honor this majestic and fearsome creature by building an entire deck dedicated to it. And the leader of this deck is none other than <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="O-Kagachi, Vengeful Kami" href="#" target="_blank">O-Kagachi, Vengeful Kami</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="O-Kagachi, Vengeful Kami"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Colossal Dreadmaw"></div></div>
<p>I picked O-Kagachi for several reasons. First, it too is a six-mana 6/6. Second, it's all five colors, giving access to the widest range of six-mana 6/6s.</p>
<p>And before you ask, yes, every creature in this deck is going to be a six-mana 6/6. And I'm only going to use cards with mana value one, two, three, or six.</p>
<h2>What Does <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="O-Kagachi, Vengeful Kami" href="#" target="_blank">O-Kagachi, Vengeful Kami</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> Do?</h2>
<p>In this list, it's purpose is to give us access to all five colors. It's also a great deterrent from people smacking you in the face. A flying trample dragon is still no joke, even if you aren't casting all that often. The threat of a big dragon is scary enough.</p>
<p>Now, a deck full of six drop creatures might seem inefficient. Especially given how lean many commander decks are nowadays. But all those cheap creatures can't block haymaker after haymaker. So we're going to ramp as fast as possible, slam our threats, and turn them sideways.</p>
<h2>Key Cards for <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Colossal Dreadmaw" href="#" target="_blank">Colossal Dreadmaw</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> Tribute Band</h2>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Demonlord Belzenlok"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Gyruda, Doom of Depths"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Grave Titan"></div></div>
<p>First are the card advantage creatures. These are creatures that have the potential to provide additional resources, usually cards in hand. Creatures like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Combustible Gearhulk" href="#" target="_blank">Combustible Gearhulk</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Demonlord Belzenlok" href="#" target="_blank">Demonlord Belzenlok</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Amareth, the Lustrous" href="#" target="_blank">Amareth, the Lustrous</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> are great at keeping your hand full through the game.</p>
<p>But card advantage isn't just cards in your hand. It's also what cards you have in play. Which is where <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Gyruda, Doom of Depths" href="#" target="_blank">Gyruda, Doom of Depths</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Grave Titan" href="#" target="_blank">Grave Titan</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm" href="#" target="_blank">Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> come in. Gyruda can cheat any of our creatures into play. Grave Titan provides cheap tokens to chump with. And Miirym doubles the number of Dragons in the deck.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Alpha Deathclaw"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Koh, the Face Stealer"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Rakdos, the Showstopper"></div></div>
<p>I also wanted to include creatures that had removal tacked on. There are plenty of efficient removal spells, like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Swords to Plowshares" href="#" target="_blank">Swords to Plowshares</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. But sometimes you won't have the mana to play a creature and remove a threat, so you need to do both. My favorites also happen to be new additions: <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Alpha Deathclaw" href="#" target="_blank">Alpha Deathclaw</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rottenmouth Viper" href="#" target="_blank">Rottenmouth Viper</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Koh, the Face Stealer" href="#" target="_blank">Koh, the Face Stealer</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>.</p>
<p>We even get a board wipe with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rakdos, the Showstopper" href="#" target="_blank">Rakdos, the Showstopper</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Wild Pair"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Kodama of the East Tree"></div></div>
<p>But the best card in the entire deck, aside from Colossal Dreadmaw, is <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Wild Pair" href="#" target="_blank">Wild Pair</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. This enchantment is a bit weird; whenever a creature enters, if you cast it, you can search for a creature with the same combined power and toughness and put it into play. This takes the deck from a jokey battlecruiser deck into a powerhouse that needs to be dealt with.</p>
<p>My first target is almost always <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Kodama of the East Tree" href="#" target="_blank">Kodama of the East Tree</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. With this and Wild Pair, you can cheat two additional creatures into play since both your original creature and the creature from Wild Pair will trigger Kodama.</p>
<h2>How Does the Dreadmaw Win?</h2>
<p>It might not surprise you, but winning involves turning big threats sideways. Okay, there is a bit more to it than that. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Moraug, Fury of Akoum" href="#" target="_blank">Moraug, Fury of Akoum</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> turns late game ramp spells into extra combat steps. Which works great with powerful attack triggers from <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rottenmouth Viper" href="#" target="_blank">Rottenmouth Viper</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Inferno Titan" href="#" target="_blank">Inferno Titan</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>.</p>
<p>There is also a burn sub-theme with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ziatora, the Incinerator" href="#" target="_blank">Ziatora, the Incinerator</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Warstorm Surge" href="#" target="_blank">Warstorm Surge</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. These let you chip in for six damage on your end step or whenever a creature enters. You don't worry about sacrificing creatures. You can just bring them back with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Kroxa and Kunoros" href="#" target="_blank">Kroxa and Kunoros</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Muldrotha, the Gravetide" href="#" target="_blank">Muldrotha, the Gravetide</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Teneb, the Harvester" href="#" target="_blank">Teneb, the Harvester</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>.</p>

<h3>Conclusion</h3>
<p>I know this deck looks like an expensive meme, but it's surprisingly powerful. You can easily swap the mana base for something more budget-friendly, loading up on all the budget lands we have available. I just happen to own expensive lands, so I put them in.</p>
<p>If you're looking for something that will turn heads and is great to give to a new player, I can't recommend this deck enough.</p>
<p>Also, if you want to see even more <em>Magic</em> content from me, you can find plenty of that on my YouTube channel <a href="http://youtube.com/@BRBMTG?utm_source=edhrec" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">BathroomBrewsMTG</a>. Alrighty nerds, I'll see you in the next one!</p>
