Homer, the Hermit

Homer, the Hermit Commander Deck

by zenith_ally100 cards

A cEDH-style landfall deck that turns land drops into mill. Homer, the Hermit makes target players each mill twice the number of Crabs, Lobsters, Nautiluses, Starfish and Trilobites the deck controls. The deck stacks extra land drops, fetches and graveyard land recursion to fire landfall repeatedly. Its centerpiece is the Hedge Shredder loop: Homer can target its own controller, any land milled that way returns to the battlefield and retriggers landfall, and that chain empties the library while milling the table out. How it wins: Homer, the Hermit plus Hedge Shredder (backed by Crab-type support) loops self-mill and landfall until opponents' libraries are milled empty, with Thassa's Oracle on an emptied library and Hedron Crab or Ruin Crab mill as further outs. Key roles: - Crab count multipliers: these raise the number Homer, the Hermit counts, either by making every creature a chosen type or by copying Crabs, so each landfall mills far more (Arcane Adaptation, Springleaf Parade, Spark Double) - Self-mill land loop: these return milled lands straight to the battlefield, turning Homer's self-targeting into a chain of landfall triggers and drawing cards from lands hitting the graveyard (Hedge Shredder, The Gitrog Monster, Icetill Explorer) - Extra land drops and fetching: these let several lands enter per turn and turn fetchlands into two landfall triggers each, sometimes doubled by a trigger copier (Azusa, Lost but Seeking, Traveling Chocobo, Scapeshift) - Mass land recursion: these dump the graveyard's lands back onto the battlefield at once for a burst of landfall (Lumra, Bellow of the Woods, Aftermath Analyst, Mole Man, Moloid Master) - Landfall payoffs and backup mill: these turn each land into mana, tokens or extra mill, supporting the main mill plan and fueling Gaea's Cradle (Ruin Crab, Hedron Crab, Lotus Cobra) - Tutors and alternate finish: these find the combo pieces fast under a dense counterspell shell, and give the deck a Thassa's Oracle win once the library is milled away (Demonic Tutor, Chord of Calling, Thassa's Oracle)
