EDH/Commander Deck Archetype- All or Nothing R/G

Welcome young walker. Today we will look over another powerful assortment of spells from an unlikely source. Normally things are pretty easy with this master of red and green magic, but there is a time when she may need to go for it all.  Today we are talking about Wort, the Raidmother. Wort is normally a powerful goblin shaman if you will and she normally will let her hoard of goblins protect her from any dangers. Should the time be of need, Wort has some very powerful combinations that can take down many of foes in her wake. She enjoys using her green magic to ramp up her mana supply and then sending forth devastating spells on to her foes. Let us take a peak at some of her more famous spell line ups to defeat her enemies, shall we?

As you can see young walker, Wort has a pretty impressive array of spells here. Most of which are ground breaking and cost lots of mana to use. She has the monstrous eldrazi at her command and even the power of Ugin. How can a normal mage stand up to that kind of power? Better yet, how can she spend all the mana to cast any of them? To answer that later, we will chose her favorite spell to use in the whole list we have here. Channel. It is a back breaking spell when cast at the right time, paying life for spare mana can hardly go wrong when your a master like Wort. Using this spell, she can cast out any of the eldrazi, and even Ugin without much of a problem. There are ways to deal with this, the easiest is to out race her in the mana building. Another easy way is to counter all the spells she tries to use. But what if she chooses her most famous combination of spells? Her favorite combination, is using Channel to drain her life next to nothing. Followed up with the artifact Soul Conduit and then only needing to deal a small amount of damage to finish any mage off. Being a master of red magic, another damage or two won't be that hard to get.

Changing the Channel

Defeating this is combination is very hard to do but it can be done. Using such a vast amount of spells means she has a very low chance of getting the three pieces needed at once. So there is a possibility that one can bring her down. Another hard part to over come is when the mana starts to flow, the bigger spells can come unleashed. So the choice is yours young walker, how will you face Wort? Will you stand and fight, or run for your very life??
