Hey fam, it’s been a hwile since I dropped an update for SisayElk, the combo deck that plays both Sisay, Weatherlight Captain and Jegantha the Wellspring as her companion.

This video is basically a video form of what’s in my primer, with some of the information cleaned up to match the latest version of the deck that has been playing very well. If you’re not interested/don’t like watching videos to get this info, you can just read my primer to get mostly the same information. (I’ll be updating my primer too to catch up with this video)

For those who don’t know the deck, SisayElk is a proactive combo deck that leverages its unique advantage of having “the entire combo” accessible to you, providing a very streamlined gameplan with simpler mulligan choices.

The deck has taken many many iterations in exploring how to leverage Jegantha in the companion zone, and the latest version so far is the most adaptable and fun to pilot. You can go fast if you’re the fastest at the table, you can go slow and tempo out the table if you’re against storm, you can even grind really well in midrange pods. It plays much closer to what you classically expect from a Sisay, Weatherlight Captain deck except with the benefit of knowing you always have your out as long as you have mana.

I made some updates in the decklist for Modern Horizons 2 that I haven’t talked about in the video since I haven’t had time to test them due to playing in MLC. Once I’ve tested the cards more I’ll release another update on how they’re performing, but some easy updates includes Ignoble Hierarch and Ragavan.

I hope you all enjoy the video and deck, and it inspires you all to brew something interesting 🙂
