Hello everyone, today we are playing some Grixis in best of three but it's a little different than other Grixis lists in that we are going to have an amass theme. I haven't really seen an amass deck pop up in best of three or even best of one, so I wanted to give it a go. Since amass is mostly in Grixis colors we are Grixis and playing some Bolas.
Time Stamps:
Match 1 - 00:02:18
Match 2 - 00:13:28

Match 4 - 00:31:45

I think the biggest draw to an amass deck is Dreadhorde Invasion and Widespread Brutality. Widespread Brutality can be a Plague Wind that gains you life if you have a Dreadhorde Invasion out, either before or after you attack. Whichever you think is better in the situation. The rest of the deck is choke full of other Grixis cards, another card that probably stands out is Deliver Unto Evil. I believe the card is very powerful as a singleton, especially if we're playing all eight Bolas. Even without Bolas it can get you a couple cards back in the late game.
I make changes to the deck at the end of the video, so if you want to play this deck, I recommend listening to my wrap up.
Hope you enjoy the deck and have a great weekend!
As always, thanks for reading,
