Deck Description

The deck isn't fully finished yet, as I still have to figure out my mana ratio. The one in there right now is just to represent the amount of lands I want to run overall. The deck really revolves around pulling out as many land cards as possible and dropping at least 2 on your opponent every turn once big ol' borbor is out on the field. The druids help out with some mana ramp as do the elves.

How to Play

Pull a land heavy hand, with at least a few mana ramp creatures or sorceries. The lands that you play early are the ones that you'll want to keep on the field, since most of the cards that are played after Borbor reaches the field will be used to throw down some damage on your opponent. Theres a good amount of land destruction in the deck to, just to screw with your opponent, and even though you'll lose some lands too, theres more than enough mana ramp in the deck to not have to worry about losing a few lands.

Once Borbor is out, just smile and start chuckin some basic lands at your opponent.

Deck discussion for BORBORANGRY

Since I'm just recently trying to get into EDH, I can't help you much except for a few points.

First, I don't think that you can have a copy of your general in your deck.
Second, your mana base is out of balance; either throw in some more red creatures/cards or make a land ratio of 5 forest for every 2 mountain.
Third, you have wayyy too much land in your deck. You need a lot more creatures and less land. Between 35-40 land is what you should try to have in an EDH deck. In your case, considering all the mana ramp from green and low cost creatures, I'd consider between 30-35 lands.
Your deck is also very short on creature cards. Put in some bloodthirst cards and some more heavy hitters. You already got more than enough mana ramp, so adding more heavy hitters won't hurt. I'd go for Ruination Wurm, Duskdale Wurm, Shivan Dragon etc.

Hey there!
Yeah, I just put the general in the main deck area so his picture would come up in the deck name haha.
And my idea was to pack extra lands in so that I could afford to sacrifice as many lands as possible, but once I get a chance to play test it, I'll probably take some lands out.
I do have to fix the mana ratio, just haven't gotten around to it just yet.
But the idea of adding in bloodthirst creatures is awesome, I'm gonna get on that right away. Maybe Furyborn Hellkite, and Skargan Firebird, for some red.

Damn, I actually meant bloodRUSH, but that Furyborn Hellkite is very good if you got a burn deck.
You don't need to have Borborygmos in your main deck to make it show up in the picture field by the way.
Anyway, I was making my Gruul EDH too. My motivation was more that I had all these reasonably good cards but only one copy of each and I didn't have an EDH deck yet. So here's my version. I got some ideas from yours, hopefully you'll get some from mine! http://www.mtgvault.com/darius/decks/gruul-edh-borborygmos-army-2/
