Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"When the Lord of the Rings cards started getting spoiled, Shelob was the card that intrigued me. Mainly the turn creatures into food that kept their abilities drew me in, but also the aspect of doing spider tribal/typal is fun too. Then came the prerelease event, and it also happened to be my first. It was during the summer and I thought why not, I don't have much to do. On the first pack in the prerelease packs, I pulled Shelob. I thought it destiny, the universe or Shelob whispering to me to build her. And thus brings about this deck list.\n\nI wanted to do spider tribal and the steal food together and not so much focus on one or the other. Another note is that I try to use as many cards in the art of Lord of the Rings, either from the main set or the commander set. Most of the cards tagged \"Uncuttable\" is due to being both a Lord of the Rings card/art and working with what the deck wants. The others are mostly also cards I've found to be uncuttable. That is except Spinning Wheel Kick, which is purely for the meme of having Shelob hit 8 different creatures with each of her legs.\n\nAs I've played the deck, the main goal is often to get infinite mana utilizing the devoted druid being a food. This can be achieved a multitude of ways. This is also the main reason for the choices of the fight/bite spells. Because they allow you to target your own creatures and thus the devoted druid. Then with said infinite green mana, you can cast a bunch of spells, a really high exsanguinate, Ishkanah's ability, or if your graveyard allows it, a Rotwidow Pack's ability. Note that the black mana will only come from the lands when it comes to that.\n\nOf course with the ability to steal creatures your opponent's have, this allows for variance on either winning or getting to the win. For example, within my group of friends, there is a Kenrith deck and if you were to take Kenrith, you could infinitely pump up your creatures to strike for lethal.\n\nIn case infinite mana couldn't be achieved, Shelob just happens to be an 8/8 so that's somewhat the backup plan to the all the other stuff mentioned. You're still able to utilize the other cards without the infinite mana and that should still be enough in the long run.\n\nAnyways, I hope you find this a cool build whether or not it is similar to many other Shelob decks and I appreciate your time reading this, my sort of calling card you could say in my time in Magic.\n\n-Nyhtella\n"}]}
