An alternative wincon for Anje is Living Death/Twilight's Call with Ogre Battledriver. I am suprised that Syr konrad, The Grim isn't in this list.

What a second, this is a CEDH strategy

Thank you for this deck tech, both because it’s incredibly cool and because it taught me that Bag of Holding and Madness can actually interact favorably because (so long as you didn’t cast the Madness card and you resolve Madness first) the Bag can track the discarded Madness card after moving to grave and re-exile it

Anje was my very first commander deck and I’ve cherished it ever since. I was really happy to see that the worldgorger combo was the combo for the deck as I’ve had that since almost day one. Couldn’t think of a better video for my 5000th like lol

OMG THANK YOU. Since C19 launch I've been trying to build a rummage Anje deck, and although I have almost all the pieces you showed in this video, I was missing some grave returns and the dragon animate dead combo. This video will SURELY pump up my deck's effectiveness by a lot.

Thank you for this deck tech Mitch! I've been wanting to upgrade Anje for a while ever since I got the precon a while back just to get into Commander games. Definitely can't wait to try this out!

I have been waiting sooo loong for this deck tech! :)

First up, there's Wayfa.....WHAAAAAT!?

Thanks for making this episode. I've been teaching my wife how to play and bought her the Anje precon so this will help us both when it comes to her learning and me to get some good upgrades

This looks incredible! I can't wait to build this!

Finally. I’ve been waiting for this.

Yes I frickin love you!!! Hopefully more cards this year to help her synergy and combos. Year of the commander people!!!

No wayfarers bauble

i was considering making a commander deck with her but didnt wann spend too much since i dont get to play paper too often so this for 50 is great :) thank you for showing it and thanks to the person who submitted the request

Thanks for teaching me that Bag of Holding and Madness actually works. Anje is one of my best commanders. I run her as a every turn board wipe deck with Archfiend of Ifnir and Massacre Girl.

I have this exact commander and was looking for an optimised build for this deck as I seem to lose quite a bit due to not having quite the optimised build. Now that I have this video I should be able to optimise my deck a little bit more so that it might be able to increase in win rate thanks for the great video.

Awesome video! Thank you! I tinker with Anje's precon, so this helps with ideas (although I don't run the infinite combo). Bog Witch is a nice on-theme ramp addition. I put Arc Mage in, too, but that's just for fun =D

Why not a 50$ deck power up or whatever where you fix up a pre-con deck with a 50$ budget?

I have a anje Madness rakdos, spectacle deck thats preforming pretty well.

ANJE! My favorite! She can be budget, and still be brutally fast to win, if that's what you're going for. She's so unique in how she wins, too, even when using Worldgorger combo! I didn't even use Worldgorger, originally. I had a wonky 3-4 card combo that would mill me infinitely (yes, infinitely), and leverage that mill into damage for the win. Had fun building that, and later upped her to Worldgorger. Still, mostly budget, even at cEDH level, and lots of fun to discover and play! (I still keep the wonky combo in for fun and more casual play!)

Built this deck with a slightly higher budget and i can assure that this is a great deck. usually going off on turn 4-6. There is some cards i still need to add to the list but Mitch's list will get you the win pretty consistently to.

you could add blood pet and skirk prospector to help bring out anje on turn 2 and sarkahn's triumph and shred memory to tutor for the combo pieces

I bought the Anje precon and play it strictly as madness, it's a ton of fun. This gives me some ideas to make it possibly better

Love it. I've been playing the precon for awhile and even put my on spin on it, but this is on a new level

I was really hoping that this was going to be a Hellbent deck. A deck meant to be played with no cards in hand, and forcing your opponents to play the same.

I'm also tossing in Kiki-Jiki since you can go infinite with WGD using it in case you encounter graveyard hate. Love the adventurer tech also.

I recommend necropotence for this deck too, keeps 7 cards in your hand, perfect for digging to your win con.

i bought the pre-con, really tried to have fun with anje but everytime i won, chainer basically carried the game so i ended up choosing him as the commander and having way more fun

I was thinking it would be nice to have a decklist that only has Mitch's deck tech minus the cards that are shared with the precon, so you can buy only the cards that you're missing. But the cards that are shared between the two decks is only like $10 worth of cards. So if you have the precon and want to build this deck, it's almost pointless to worry about since the price difference between buying doubles and not is almost negligible. Anyway, for anyone that actually wants a list of just the cards you'd need to buy if you want to upgrade your precon, this is the list: 1x Abandon Reason 1x Aether Hub 1x Alms of the Vein 1x Animate Dead 1x Archfiend of Ifnir 1x Bag of Holding 1x Biting Rain 1x Bloodmad Vampire 1x Bone Harvest 1x Brain Gorgers 1x Cabal Ritual 1x Dance of the Dead 1x Dark Ritual 1x Distemper of the Blood 1x Empty the Catacombs 1x Final Fortune 1x Footbottom Feast 1x Forever Young 1x Garna, the Bloodflame 1x Gisa's Bidding 1x Glint-Horn Buccaneer 1x Gravepurge 1x Ichor Slick 1x Incorrigible Youths 1x Insatiable Gorgers 1x Mausoleum Secrets 1x Merchant of the Vale 1x Muck Drubb 1x Peat Bog 1x Psychosis Crawler 1x Psychotic Episode 1x Psychotic Haze 1x Rain of Filth 1x Reckless Wurm 1x Renegade Map 1x Restless Dreams 1x Senseless Rage 1x Shadow of the Grave 1x Songs of the Damned 1x Stensia Masquerade 1x Strength of Lunacy 1x Sunscorched Desert 1x Traveler's Amulet 1x Twins of Maurer Estate 1x Urborg Volcano 1x Voldaren Pariah 1x Wanderer's Twig 1x Weirded Vampire 1x Worldgorger Dragon

Some good cards for the infinite combo at the end are Trial of Zeal as it does 3 damage when entering the battle field and Gray Merchant of Asphodel(Gary). Massacre girl is a board wipe at that point and Overseer of the damned just kinda murders the whole board. Eldest reborn also wipes the board. Just a few decent options to use with this deck as a long time Anje player.

Hey Mitch! Love your videos! I really really really hope to see your take on Sedris, the Traitor King in the future. I love reanimator decks and I feel like Grixis does it in a very unique way. I'm eating up all of your videos right now since we're in quarantine. Greetings from Italy, stay safe!

Been trying to make anja work , and this seems like a fun as heck way to do it

Alhammarret's Archive is also a nice card to have as an upgrade option. With Anje you can pretty much draw your entire deck.

I was a little surprised Bone Miser wasn’t the golden pig, until you got to the combo! That card is sooooo useful with Anje. I have her and love her and got some great ideas from this video! Also 10/10 for not making her stupidly oppressive (minus the one combo)

This deck is Madness and I love it 😁

If you have Archfeind of Ifnir or Gilthorn Buccaneer out and want an infinite discard combo, Library of Leng + Anje + any madness card will get you there and is definitely in budget.

I bought the precon on summer, I have made a wg dragon animated dead deck and it's awesome, I love anje

I love Anya I have her and I have her mostly upgraded I will definitely be comparing what I have to your list to see if there's any changes I can make also if you want to add a third reanimation spelled just a little more expensive and hard to find you can add necromancy

Mitch, Library of Leng goes infinite with Anje!! You discard a madness card to the top of your library and then draw it. With another card that has discard triggered abilities like glint-horn, you just win

I have a similar build but I found hand disruption is needed. I don’t go for the combo without removing counter spells from hands.

Just gonna say it, even though probably no one will see this comment and/or listen to it, but you're missing a couple of things here. 1. Anje doesn't really care about lands, since once you have her out, she can ensure you hit every land drop from that turn onward, so 32 lands is better than 34 2. Every Anje deck should have the following: Street Wraith, and Squee Goblin Nabob. Street Wraith is essentially an extra madness card with the cost of 2 life (nothing in commander), and Squee is discard fodder that can be used over and over again, kind of like the Bloodghast of discard decks. Other than that, solid deck tech. I prefer the non-dragon route (just winning with Glint-Horn and friends), but no mistake, Anje is a broken as hell commander. If you enjoy fast, combo-y decks that can just go off in a single turn, trust me, Anje is the commander for you, and this a great starting point for just $50 (the only upgrade's I'd make are on the mana-base and ramp, otherwise, the deck's essentially ready for CEDH).

Mitch, can you take the wire out of my house. This is getting crazy. I keep getting a deck built and getting ready to order then seeing the Deck tech for that commander pop up.

You can ping your opponents to death with the dragon/animate dead combo if you have the Sunscorched land on the battlefield. Idk if you mentionned it on the video, if so, sry for not listening enough to your stuff XD Good video, and that show how broken Anje is!

ahh, is the dragon combo :( I made one myself with that, play it twice and immediately change to a more demon re-animator liliana's contract madness

I dont run world gorger in mine but its pretty much identicle to my build from when anje first came out. I just run all the red enchantments that let you discard lands because i always get land flooded with her. Forget their names atm but theres the ones that give all your lands cycling and one that lets you discard a land to shock something.

Might be a deck worth including that black enchantment that lets you win if you have 20 or more creatures in the graveyard.

I already have that combo in my anje deck 😂

I remember seeing another strategy for infinite mana involving dakmor salvage and dread and hostility, but I cant find the video again. Anyone knows the link or the strategy?

can we get a follow up vid outlining exactly what the perfect hand is for the turn 2 win AND also how the deck would use doomsday if that was adding in, per the reasonable upgrades?

So this deck can be pretty competitive with just the madness cards and worldgorger reanimate combo into avacyns judgement

Doomsday is fun way to set up the WG/AD combo.

the reason the sunscorched desert is in the deck is so win u have the worldgorger dragon combo it will ping ur opponents to death

Would love to see a Haptra -1/-1 counter shenanigans deck.

I wish someone would do a Merieke Ri Beret deck. I would love to see they're take on it.

I have a rakdos anje discard, reanimate demigod of revenge deck that just straight up one shots people lol. I also have reanimate targets like ashen rider and terastodon in it that I never cast.

Me when I see a new commander’s quarters episode ‘s been posted: 1:15

Hey would there be anyway you could show a land tax grand Arbiter Augustin IV because i pulled it out of a pack recently, but I'm on a budget and dont really know good budget cards that would work with it. Would be really helpfully if you could and thank you if you do.

Do a budget deck tech for erebos bleak hearted next!

It sucks that i cant go to my lgs cause of coronavirus

Hell yeah man! Love the Idea for her, but just havent found a real good reason to purchase her

Do you think you could show us a Chainer Nightmare Adept deck?

But those madness cards used for discard... will you never play them? (just playing them, not using the madness cost)

Could you do a brago budget deck

Huh. I'm not much of a Johnny player, so this strategy never occured to me. Looks fun, for the first few plays. Seems rather linear, rummage into a win-con, shuffle up, repeat. That said, I'm not too happy with my current Rakdos deck, so I'll probably just build this one until I get around to making my Greven deck for the Rakdos slot. Because it will be fun for the few times I bring it out of my 25 deck pile.

I love your videos!! Do you plan on doing Alela?

What about the card library of leng it’s a cheap card that with your commander you can infinitely loop drawing the same card over and over getting allowing for infinite discard or draw triggers with psychosis crawler or bonemiser

Ahh there it is world gorger dragon. Also fun fact this can be a cedh deck if ya invest in it

Mitch putting in 2 cards near 10 bucks each?! I mean one is needed... And because there is red too, that new red enchantment that gives escape to all your cards for a turn?

Anyone know how you should try to win after doomsdaying with this deck? I was surprised when I saw doomsday and want to try out this deck tomorrow with my play group.

Why not be more budget and add Library of Leng to combo off with Glint-Horn Buccaneer or Psychosis Crawler and have a "instawin"? With Bone Miser you can make infinite zombies and win with that too.

Love how you made one of the worst cards in the precon part of an combo.

O use this deck, but with a diferent combo, bucaneer and library of leng. And it's cheaper than the dragon combo

So, effectively you use Anje and madness cards to turn the 100 card deck into a much smaller number of cards. Great for really trying to nail down your strategy consistently! “Hi, this is my 10 card commander deck!” “But you have 100 cards?” “No, I have 10 cards and 90 meaningless cards to sift through to find those 10!”

I'm holding out for the day we can play a Madness deck where you want to ramp hard and cast those Madness cards... but we're still waiting on enough good enough cards to make the deck, and probably will be for a while. :(

...another card to swap out for this deck would be Garna, the Bloodflame...and replace him with... Chainer, Nightmare Adept(possessed Simon Belmont *running joke*), or Obosh, the Preypiercer... while neither one has madness... I feel that either one these two could be a threat on their own, throwing a curve-ball into any match ... 1v1 or multiplayer. But hey, these are just my thoughts.

Won't the carnarium cause you to bounce lands during the worldgorger combo since it's entering the battlefield?

I know you try to keep your reasonable upgrades at 10$ or less, but necromancy is an instant speed animate dead for one mana more that is just barely more expensive than that budget

Volrath infect deck?

Could a reasonable upgrade be Waste Not? Its Bone Miser as an enchantment for 1B.

What about hollow onw

Command zone sponsors commanders quarters Me: ordering from TCG

mitch can you make a cEDH episode where the deck is not restricted to any budget

Him; makes a deck tech without wayfarers bauble me; wait that's illegal

Sucks that the only way Anje is built is Worldgorger Combo. Was hoping that some secret tech was found.

Well, speak of the devil. I just got the precon for her.

No necromancy?

I saw "Madness" and immediately though "Oh, it's a steal deck." I've been playing too much Eternal Card Game.

I think you could take out a lot of the cards like psychosis crawler and the bag card for more interaction like pyroblast and red elemental blast considering this combo can screw you over if it doesn’t go to plan, not to mention even one tutor like diabolic is cheap and again is pretty important for the consistency of your combo deck

Is competitive?

This is pretty close to the CEDH deck version of Anje - minus the silly priced mana rocks basically.

So basically this is just 'hey you can fit the Worldgorger combo into a $50 deck'

Nice video as always... sadly, i was expected a casual EDH deck tech. I'm very well aware of the Worldgorger Dragon combo, and I was hoping for a non-broken Anje deck tech. I LOVE Anje, and I'm having a difficulty to tune down the deck while keeping it casual/playable; right know, I'm leaning toward a "discard" strategy using Kroxa (which I luckily pulled from a pack) / Underworld Breach combo style, consider the number of discarded card, I shouldn't have any problem escaping him. I was hoping to get some ideas from your video as the deck I'm building may not fit the $50 budget considering the Kroxa is already > $20...

How would you go about building jhoira of the ghitu without too many extra turn shenanigans

-second- Thanks mitch nice video love budget stuff

Oh it's the Gorger combo. I was hoping it was more than that.

Madness is such an interesting mechanic to me but I really dislike the infinite combo that everyone runs with Anje due to lack of a better wincon. Seems like the infinite combo that everyone and their mother run with atla palani and mirror entity. EDH decks that depende on such a wincon are very boring to me, even though I had hopes for this commander.

Hey Mitch, as someone who doesn't actually play commander but is still interested in your content, i cant answer your new poll properly, since i don't have any commander decks!

We out here playing cEDH for 50 bucks

Here I was hoping I'd get a different take then the worldgorger dragon combo that is the staple for Anje decks that makes it so boring. Oh well.

This deck is only good for cEDH - you can only win with it, but not while playing fun and interactive game. The point of this commander is to make your deck have less cards, so you can more consistently pull off dragon combo. Couldn’t think of any less exciting.
