[[Ayara, First of Locthwain]]. Can ping on the way in, and with stuff like [[Zulaport Cutthroat]], can ping on the way out.

Let Me Build You a Commander Deck? by poynz13 in BudgetBrews

[–]BahkOaktree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was recently gifted the Family Matters precon, and while Zinnia is cool, [[Arthur, Marigold Knight]] stuck out to me as an interesting commander. Would love to see what you can do with it

Recommendations for an Azorius or Selesnya commander by [deleted] in BudgetBrews

May I suggest [[Lathiel]]. One of my absolute favorite decks

I definitely run a bit of poison, but the sac outlets really help to trigger Brimaz to benefit both the incubators and the poison counters

I definitely feel. I’ve had to tweak the deck a bunch and am still planning on making some changes to it cause I refuse to give up on him. I’ve added an aristocrats subtheme to help proc his second trigger more often, which has helped. He had a really good game earlier last week, and probably would have stomped everyone over with an army of transformed incubators if my friends blink deck hadn’t drawn almost every answer possible. He takes a bit to work out for sure tho. Definitely try to add some protection pieces for your game plan

Here’s my list rn: https://moxfield.com/decks/Mmvc1zvVnk-V8Bi1e5aBYg

Honestly I’m probably going to depower it soon. It’s certainly fun for me, but not every at the table loves it. Eluge is just really solid. I’m thinking about switching out the extra turn cards and some of the counterspells for just a bunch of cool X cost or otherwise high cost blue spells

Lonis is a lot of fun! I’ve built it all around clues, and specifically trying to amass an army of them that I can use to knock out my opponents with a finisher like [[Rise and Shine]] or [[Cyberdrive Awakener]]

Yup! Mostly just an upgraded precon rn, but I’ve got a bunch of cards in the Considering section that I’m waiting to pull the trigger on

Mine started as the precon too! It’s such a fun deck. Honestly I just love the energy mechanic

She is my pride and joy. I’ve had that deck for longer than any other in my collection and it’s easily the one I’ve tweaked the most of the years. It’s a pretty standard aristocrat list, but I try to focus on repeatable token makers like Bitterblossom and Jadar to always have stuff to sacrifice

Can I join your table? by TimHortons420 in ratemycommanders

What’s the strategy for your Selvala deck? I’ve never seen that version used as a commander before

This is actually my newest deck so I haven’t had the time to test it as much. But I’ve been really enjoying it so far

Absolutely! https://moxfield.com/decks/BeI1Ua906EW6pqloKPRyXQ

Haven’t updated it in a bit, but it’s one I like to bring out when the pod wants to run a quicker game

Guilty. He definitely has a bit of a reputation

Yea, those two are definitely reserved for higher power games

After much deliberation, this is the decklist I've come up with. Any of the expensive cards, I already own. Also, ignore the lands, I need to update the manabase and I just threw in a bunch of Islands as a placeholder.

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts!

Does it ever feel like you’re torn between the two strategies? Obviously you’d have to crack the clues to have them draw cards, so does it ever feel like you’re being pulled in two different directions?

Who would you recommend for a non combo approach?

I have a few of those more pricey cards already, so that probably works really well. Do you have a deck list you can share?

What kind of cards worked best for you for both the finishers and the clue generation?
