Grixis Treasure Makers
Find Grixis (blue-black-red) treasure token generators and treasure ramp for Commander. Explore treasure synergies in blue-black-red decks.
Grixis is arguably the strongest treasure color combination in Commander. Red's Dockside Extortionist and Goldspan Dragon provide explosive treasure generation, black's Pitiless Plunderer and Revel in Riches turn creature deaths into artifact mana, and blue's artifact synergies from Urza, Lord High Artificer and Academy Manufactor multiply their value. The only thing Grixis lacks is white's Smothering Tithe and green's token doublers - but UBR more than compensates with raw treasure volume.
The Premier Treasure Engine
- Dockside Extortionist creates treasures equal to opponents' artifacts and enchantments - routinely generates five or more in a typical game
- Goldspan Dragon makes treasures on attack and doubles treasure mana output, turning each token into two mana instead of one
- Pitiless Plunderer creates a treasure whenever any creature you control dies - devastating with red's sacrifice outlets and black's aristocrat payoffs
- Revel in Riches generates treasures from opponent creature deaths and provides a ten-treasure alternate win condition
- Academy Manufactor triples every treasure into a treasure plus food plus clue, tripling your artifact count for Urza and affinity synergies
No White or Green Means Proactive Treasure Generation
- Without white, you lose Smothering Tithe - the best passive treasure generator in the format - so Grixis must create treasures through spells and ETBs
- No green means no Parallel Lives or Doubling Season for treasure doubling - each source produces its printed amount only
- Red's Treasure Nabber steals opponents' mana rocks as temporary treasures, punishing artifact-heavy tables in ways no other color can
- Blue's Mechanized Production enchants a treasure and copies it each upkeep, also threatening to win at eight artifacts
- Black's Deadly Dispute and Reckoner's Bargain sacrifice a treasure to draw cards, turning excess mana into card advantage
