This can mean you get the Ooze, or Laboratory Maniac, or pretty much any creatures within the bounds of six mana total. What Hulk does for the deck is effectively search for a large number of small creatures with good abilities from the deck and get them all into play. We are not playing Flash in this build but it wouldn't hurt if you wanted to take liberties with this build and add this in. Protean Hulk – The Hulk is a fantastic and infamous card in many competitive Commander builds for its use in "Flash-Hulk", a straightforward combo between itself and Flash. From haste to indestructible, to even undying and an exile effect, these Shapeshifter creatures give Necrotic Ooze and Volrath a lot to work with. All of these creatures provide immense value in that they all have a ton of activated abilities to use with Necrotic Ooze. "-Ling" creatures – This refers to Morphling, AEtherling, Thornling, and Endling. Be advised that in this instance you need to sacrifice three of your creatures first, so Narcomoeba, Bloodghast, Gravecrawler, any recurrable creatures need to be present for this to work out. However, Tetzimoc doesn't care if it is even cast.ĭread Return – This spell gets us a creature back from the graveyard, and it can be cast from there itself so it serves as important insurance in case things go awry. The same can be said of Tetzimoc, Primal Death, as Volrath does not care what kind of counter goes on a creature. This is most important for Necrotic Ooze and Laboratory Maniac because in a pinch this means we have additional copies of these.

Master Biomancer – This card allows us to put counters on our creatures coming in, which gives Volrath free reign to copy them. With this in mind, some very important cards to note for this build are the following: Additionally, various classic Magic combos are inevitably going to go off in this deck. Volrath can do this himself, but beyond his potential, other cards are simply needed for speed. This deck needs to see creatures have counters put upon them for Volrath to best function.

As an experiment, if you pardon the expression, I'll be trying to win with Laboratory Maniac in this build as well, in case the Ooze plan goes south. A key point about Necrotic Ooze as a deck type is that oftentimes the goal is to win through damage.


Gruesome as it is, the Necrotic Ooze combo deck seeks to put as many creatures with activated abilities as possible into your graveyard and then capitalize on their activated abilities.
