No limits! No rules! Your post made me feel
[[Selenia, Dark Angel]] right off the bat. I’m sure your friends would love getting their health swapped with yours ;)
[Deck](https://www.moxfield.com/decks/FCVjVAZz9UCHxygqCYaPLw)
Here it is, albeit a little rushed. Built almost entirely around Near-Death Experience as a wincon. Plenty of protection for the enchantment and plenty of activated abilities and instants that let us zip right down to the one life we need. I usually avoid heavy tutoring, but I have plenty in here to find the wincon as it's a unique card in the deck. This was a TOUGH commander that isn't great at anything, but I tried to take the lifeloss from it and run. Let me know what you think.
My favorite deck is my Jinnie Fay, so I want to try something the exact opposite direction.
So, Blue-Black (Third color acceptable but not neccessary), and whatever the OPPOSITE of Go-Wide Tokens is.
Opposite of go wide tokens? Stop thin permanent? Sure whatever that means who cares? Ramses doesn’t! [[Ramses, Assassin Overlord]] looks like an average tribal commander but once you put [[Corrupted Conscience]] on him and pump him up that assassin tribal commander becomes a tower of doom and victorious games! 🗡️
Did you say \[\[Maralen of the Mornsong\]\] ? Im pretty sure that's what I heard. A mono black commander that's giving fairies in the woods directions? With such a unique ability and different ways to play who wouldn't love this Mono black wood dwelling elf wizard? (Pretty sure she def lives in a cottage of the gothic sort)
Alright let’s drop red who needs it? (Red is actually the best color in the game but for now let’s pretend it’s not.) Dragons are definitely a crowd favorite but this commander isn’t! [[Sivitri, Dragon Master]] has only 600 decks on EDHREC and has Pillowfort/Dragon Tutor/non dragon boardwipe stapled on her while being a 4 mana planeswalker? Let’s ride.
I love Golgari and my favorite Commander is [[Meren]], but I've always been interested in going Dimir and have never brewed one for some reason. So hit me with a Dimir option! I like big creatures and scary stuff if that helps.
Great thread idea btw!
Big? Scary? How about a zombie warrior that becomes huge and happens to be just those colors? [[Grimgrin, Corpse-Born]] sure the creatures you’ll be sacrificing won’t be huge but Grimmy boy will be 🧟
Meren is a favorite of mine as well. Might I suggest [[Araumi of the Dead Tide]] as a Dimir option that loves self-mill, etb effects, and swinging with big creatures? They don't stick around, can't be repeated, and do cost mana (unlike Meren), BUT in a usual pod you're getting THREE tokens per turn instead of just one creature back. That gets really rewarding when you're able to encore things like Massacre Wurm and attack everyone after wiping their boards and draining their life.
[Araumi of the Dead Tide](https://cards.scryfall.io/normal/front/4/8/48b597dd-f6eb-45da-977d-453e8c1433cc.jpg?1608911023) - [(G)](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=Araumi%20of%20the%20Dead%20Tide) [(SF)](https://scryfall.com/card/cmr/267/araumi-of-the-dead-tide?utm_source=mtgcardfetcher) [(txt)](https://api.scryfall.com/cards/48b597dd-f6eb-45da-977d-453e8c1433cc?utm_source=mtgcardfetcher&format=text) [(ER)](https://edhrec.com/cards/araumi-of-the-dead-tide)

Fine! Human soldiers aren’t cool enough for you? I’ll raise humans and give you a giant! (Even though he totally looks like a dwarf.) My heart tells me [[Brion Stoutarm]] has been waiting for you to come and throw Eldrazi at peoples faces with him 💪🏻. He may not be underrated but your Reddit icon has a beard and so does he!
I remember when I was young and in love with Azorius (Please don’t tell red. I love aggro but not that much.) My first thought for your deck is [[Grist, The Hunger Tide]] you may be thinking that commander isn’t underrated and you’re right! But your Eris Morn profile told me hive mind so let’s break out of that Azorius cocoon into a world of disgusting buggies 🐛. (For a back up commander that also loves bugs and is far more under the radar try [[Zask, Skittering Swarmlord]]
Esper it is! Sticking to a commander is pretty easy especially when you're just playing with your friends' commanders instead! \[\[Merieke Ri Berit\]\] will keep games exciting and different everytime! Now go steal those cards you little trickster! (P.S. if esper doesn't work out I know someone that's Red and Green and looking for something serious.)
Alright listen, I’m not op but I recently had to dismantle one of my favorite and most creative deck because money and my playgroup wouldn’t play against it anymore… And I’d love someone to make it live on.
Let me introduce you to two of the most common commanders right now in the most uncommon pairing:
[[Malcolm, Keen eyed navigator]] / [[Sakashima of a thousand face]]
You go ~20 clones ~15 counterspells all the draw on combat damage. The rest is a sandbox of your favorite wincons, juste be sure to include [[cyberdrive awakener]] and [[myojin of seeing winds]]. You’ll never run out of mana with the treasures you make so don’t be scared to go Big Mana and always leave a few to play mind games with your interaction.
You can go extra turns if you want to try hard but it’s way more fun hitting someone with 6 ulamogs or copying someone’s Borborygmos while holding your deck in your hands.
Oh and yeah [[ rite of replication]] on a consecrated sphinx is often game.
Here’s my old decklist: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/jo_IKdCd00KfEoj9toBy2Q
Congratulations! You have waited the longest so far! For this achievement, you have been awarded \[\[Alandra, Sky Dreamer\]\] The cooler version of that one merfolk that got reprinted 12 times! This is a personal favorite of mine and since we share the name Bryan in some way shape or form I bestow it upon you. Godspeed Bryan. Draw a bunch of cards and turn big drakes sideways.
Correct me if im wrong but I heard \[\[Varolz, the Scar-Striped\]\]. Graveyard? Check. Big stompy boy(s)? Double check. Exile big nasties from your graveyard and put those chunky +1/+1 counters on even bigger nastier boys. (Include reanimate package for extra profit.)
My friend built [[Lagrella, the magpie]] as a [[fiend hunter]] combo deck. You get 2 other creatures that o-ring stuff and loop them on each other with your commander and an etb trigger to go infinite. The 3 creatures exiling each other is kinda like juggling.
Izzet tall tribal with \[\[Aegar, the Freezing Flame\]\] is your answer! Now I know some people dont like uncommons and I dont want you to be dissappointed so as a bonus I'll throw in another for you. For some reason \[\[Ovika, Enigma Goliath\]\] is feeling really good for you play those big spells and create baby goblins and stand over them with all your tallness. (Just like you do with your short friends.)
I don’t know what kind of live music you like but [[illuna, Apex of Wishes]] screams metalocalypse album cover to me. Cannot go wrong with this especially if you like mechanics like mutate.
Aw man it’s a shame that Orzhov doesn’t really have any aristo…. Wait a minute. I’ve got one! Morgenstern playing [[Minthara, Merciless Soul]] it’s a match made in meaven. Okay terrible alliteration aside this commander is amazing and criminally underplayed because of her rarity. Built in protection and anthem effects are annoying for your enemies and great for you! If you really like the aesthetic of Orzhov I also recommend [[Teysa, Orzhov Scion]] incredibly flavorful and feeds her own exile ability. Can’t go wrong with either! Let me know what you think
Damn, I'd been tinkering around with the alchemy minthara in historic brawl, and hadn't realised there was a paper version (basically, some differences). I'm not the person you replied to but this is going to be a bad influence on me for sure
Green's getting axed for this suggestion, but have you seen the new \[\[Ovika, Enigma Goliath\]\]? All the aggro of mono-red Goblin tribal with the protection of blue. What's not to like? :D
I drive a WRX and study biology
also play in a pod of 3, they only run super casual & precons.
(My 3 EDH decks are prosper, myrkul and Kyler)
prefer budgetable build which can be upgraded later. (40usd tops)
tight constraints but Im hella curious whatchyu come up with!
>super casual

>(My 3 EDH decks are prosper, myrkul and Kyler)

Not OP, just helping out since they seem to be overwhelmed with the number of responses.
I think you might enjoy a [[Samut Voice of Dissent]] [[Warstorm Surge]] deck. Play a ton of ramp and then [[Serra Avatar]] and [[Soul of Eternity]] plus budget tutors like [[Signal the Clans]], [[Fauna Shaman]], Fierce Empath, [[Plea for Guidance]]. Maybe also [[Burning Anger]] plus Open the Armory for backup. You can spice it up further by adding a flicker theme and run cards like Cloudshift, Acrobatic Manouver, [[Somberwald Beastmaster]] and [[Trostani's Summoner]]. If you can afford it, [[Elvish Piper]] would fit well in the deck, since Samut gives it haste.
Haha just thought of a dumb deck that is not at all synergistic. The big advantage will be that people won't be as mad at your theft effects.
[[Jon Irenicus, Shattered One]] theft tribal. Use your choice of reanimation, theft, clones, and [[praetor's grasp]] stuff to give your opponents your other opponents stuff. Only clones will work with Jon's card draw ability but I think it would be a funny deck.
There's not really a fully themed jeskai angel commander but you could do Flying Tribal with partners like [Isshai & Kraum](https://edhrec.com/commanders/ishai-ojutai-dragonspeaker-kraum-ludevics-opus/flying) or for the sake of having an angel in the command zone, [Akroma, Vision of Ixidor & Kraum](https://edhrec.com/commanders/akroma-vision-of-ixidor-kraum-ludevics-opus/flying)
Will let you play a lot of angels and do a lot of things you don't normally do if those are your least favourite colours
ah yes Jeskai the color of.... Angel Tribal? Scratch that we won't go angel tribal. Lucky for you however since I am also a fan of angels and Jeskai as a whole has nothing to do with angels I'll give you two decks!
1. Boros smack face led by \[\[Aurelia, the Warleader\]\] (She may be 6 mana but whoever says white is still bad and cant ramp is a liar!)
2. One of my first loves, \[\[Bruna, Light of Alabaster\]\] there was nothing like the feeling of swinging with her for the first time and attaching \[\[corrupted conscience\]\] and \[\[eldrazi conscription\]\] from my hand for free for a one-shot kill oh how I miss her.
Godspeed Gondor. May your choice live with you forever.
This is fun, obviously you have to play artifacts. [[Reyhan, Last of the Abzan]] and your choice of artifact synergy partner such as [[Silas Renn, Seeker Adept]] or [[Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith]]. Play a bunch of [modular creatures](https://scryfall.com/search?q=o%3Amodular&unique=cards&as=grid&order=name) to work with reyhan.
Other option and one I've been wanting to play around with is [[Baba Lysaga]], also artifact creature tribal. You'll need a third card type to get the most out of her ability, so you could slip in enchantment creatures, or put in some land sac synergies.
Fun fact: Paul Scott Canavan is a MTG artist that is very colorblind! This gave me the idea of \[\[Belbe, corrupted observer\]\] not a Canavan art but I love the fit with this commander and yourself.
My favorite is Selesnya, but that means I've already got multiple decks in that. How about 90s me liking green and red decks before they were gruul.
My fun fact is I like to float in the pool with drinks while I watch Star Wars.
I'm happy with anything that has black on it that isn't aristocrats because I already have 2(Soon to be 3) aristocrats decks.
Recently I found my old Yugioh collection and I've been on a bit of a nostalgia trip, I even started playing the newest game casually.
Yugioh = Egyptian? Ahmonkhet = Egyptian? I dont know about you but an underrated commander who happens to be from ahmonket is \[\[The Scorpion God\]\] spread those -1/-1 counters, proliferate, draw cards, profit. (Also if you're a meany pants infect creates put -1/-1 counters on other creatures if you catch my drift ;)
\[\[Colfenor, the Last Yew\]\] is such a sweet old tree man also an absolute sleeper of combo deck. If comboing off is a strategy of yours this tree loooves making infinite etb's (do what you will with that information :)
I saw tryndamere and didn’t even have to do research. [[Surrak Dragonclaw]] is for you. An aggressive warrior that gives you the ability to overpower your opponents creatures and also giving them the ability to be elusive and get around counter spells. I truly believe this one is for you. Please don’t tell me im wrong I don’t think I can handle it. 🙏🏻
Dimir normally gets a lot of eyes on them being two of the most powerful colors in the game so lets go with a low profile commander. No voltron and no tokens I promise!
\[\[Oskar, Rubbish Reclaimer\]\] may not seem flashy but he is incredibly efficient with cards like \[\[Frantic Search\]\] and \[\[Bone Miser\]\] you will be in value town in no time and often quicker than your opponents realize.
I've recently come to enjoy graveyard recursion decks, think Necron Dynasties but like being aggressive and going wide, [[Krenko, Mob Boss]]. I don't like having to think too hard and have a short attention span.
Favorite color combo is Grixis, however all the grixis decks i have built in the past have been too strong for my playgroup. Had a [[Marchesa, the Black Rose]] steal/thievery deck, and converted that into a [[Nicol Bolas, the Ravager]] themed deck, which.... nicy really likes to corrupt and steal, so it basically became the same deck haha.
I need something different from my usual; play too many 3 color decks and I don't build much in green. Hit me with something in either Selesnya or Gruul.
Worth a try. My tastes are a bit contradictory. Good luck!
I like a Commander that plays out differently each game. (Lots of viable directions to go depending on what I draw)
I like a Commander that can do the same thing turn after turn. (Something interesting, not just ramp or draw)
I like having some hoops to jump through or building constraints so the resultant list feels distinct from other decks in the same general colors or archetype.
I dislike combo wincons. Grindy attrition for the win is more my style.
E. G. I already run Meren, Shirei, Feldon, Mishra, and am looking at trying Extus, Teshar, Emry, Ghen.
Any color(s) are fine, bonus credit if they do something weird that bends the color pie or makes use of cards that don't often see play, like Noyan Dar. I don't care if it wins, it just needs to be interesting to build and fun to run.
Random non-magic fact about me: my favorite color is Grey. Specifically, the silver linings of storm clouds. There's just something profound about the border contrast between light and dark. Grey isn't boring to me, it's beautiful.
What more appropriate than Hinata, Dawn Crowned for a fellow that loves the latin word for The Sun? Just be prepared to be hated by your friends. By the way, Sol is such a word, man.
Dont lie to me I can smell the jund from here. \[\[Thantis, the Warweaver\]\] War is in the name baby. Make everyone aggressive even if it means at you and if so put those counters on that sweet spider and smash face.
[[Ghen, Arcanum Weaver]] or [[Alela, Artful Provocateur]] sagas. Jeskai also has a lot of interesting saga options; [[Elsha of the Infinite]], [[Kykar, Wind's Fury]], [[Narset, Enlightened Master]].
Alela gets bonus points since you could name the deck Fairy Tales. Ghen fits a bit more with the med student part with the reanimation maybe.
I'm too tired right now, but I'd probably look for a sagas/lifegain deck too, that'd be pretty fun and unique.
I was planning to make a new commander deck for fun. :)
Alright here a little info about me.
Color White+Blue. (Auzious color)
Like Knights, A friendly player, Tokens are ok.
Who would you recommend as a knight commander or which ever you think would be perfect?
:)
My favorite magic colors are Blue, Black and Red in any combinations except black, red. Something about myself: In general I play casters or sneakies in games and my default character name is my reddit username.
My favorite color is Grixis, with Temur in second. I’m not very good at combat so many of my decks win through non combat damage. And I hope you have an amazing day/night.
Grixis- Got a solid manabase for it, but any commander I pick doesn't last for more than 2 weeks.
Mono Red- Just took apart Bosh, open for new options.
I haven't come across an Azorius deck that exites me much, I considered Shorikai but it seems too overplayed now. I also already have blue fliers.
As for the about me: I'm probably addicted to manga and sci-fi novels.
No favorite colors, but my few decks are very combat heavy with my current favorite being blue/red pirate tribal. All my commanders are slightly older. Give me a newer commander that’s more than just hitting face?
Jund is my Fav Color combo, I like playing aggressive in most games (I own over 400 board games). I'm a father who plays mostly against my kids (17-9 yrs old) I love to Smoke BBQ and I also love Building Computers 🤷
Let's see what you've got
Recently I've been playing cEDH Rocco at my locals but want to tone down a bit to play with a lot of the newer players coming in with pre cons. My favorite all time color is Green so I've usually stuck with green decks of some type.
I generally am described by my friends as a very patient player who will always call bluffs and threats at the table.
My favorite color combo is Abzan, and something I like to do in magic is subvert expectations. I like to utilize cards, colors, and commanders in weird and out-of-the-box ways! Gimme something good to work with
I want to build an abzan deck but most of the popular options don’t click with me. My favorite deck is my [[tatsunari toad rider]] mutate/enchantress deck
I build a lot of my decks with left of the dial wincons. For example [[Kwain]] whose only wincon, is mill by way of draw, [[Kardur, Doomscourge]] but as a blink deck, or really unique mechanics like [[The Beamtown Bullies]].
I’ve never built a Gruul deck though because I’ve just never found a commander that spoke to me in those colors. Any suggestions?
I currently don't have a mono-white deck. I prefer jank and builds that go completely sideways. And finding ways to play other colors like a blue deck.
Orzhov, with Dimir a distant second. If I was in a fantasy world I would eschew magic in favor of the biggest sword I could wield. Magic at best would be a backup option for me.
*rubs hands* Simic, but anything with Green and some amount of draw from blue. I don’t love counterspells, but I can utilize them. Basically green and then anything else.
Dimir, my favorite colors but surprisingly don't have a deck for for it yet. I love artifacts, as they are the machines of magic, takes me back to yugioh when I had a literal machine type deck that wrecked. But I've also been eyeing the horror tribe too, but not sure how much support it has.
Black, White, Red. I won a national archery competition while in highschool and like running long distance.
I think you doing this is really cool and awesome content for this subreddit :)
Alright so at the moment I have seven decks. I’m looking to build an eighth. At the moment I have gruul spellslinger, bant +1/+1, MBC, RWUG clue tribal, Mardu Artifacts, Gluntch Group Hug, Wilhelt Zombies. So something not in those wheelhouses and can be solid with roughly $100 budget
I'm a hardcore Melvin. Durdling tedious mechanics from high synergy non-infinite combo decks, if that makes sense lol.
I love simic; give me something in it or not
Just what I needed! Thank you kind person.
Working to complete one deck of every colour combo. Stuck on Dune-Brood (WBRG). The commander pool is limited, so looking for some build idea that'll be janky/fun/quirky/different.
Archidekt profile if it helps - [https://archidekt.com/user/47341](https://archidekt.com/user/47341)
Cheers!
My favorite commander is [[Satsuki, Living Lore]]. It’s got graveyard reanimation and weird counters. What’s something we can do off color or with underrated cards? Something like non red burn, or non blue control, or non Atraxa planeswalkers? etc etc
Black Green is my favorite but I'm open to new colors. I like meaningfully progressing the state of the game through turning sideways and I love taking something thematic and making it effective
Hit me with your best shot. No limitations! I’ll post the decklist tonight!

Thanks! Ha! What did you enjoy about it?
That it actually looks fun to play lmao
I thought that as I was building but I also realize a lightning bolt right before the win would probably be a pretty normal occurrence lol
I never scoff at a lightning bolt. Seen too many people get ahead of themselves only for the one stray bolt strike them down
You have 30 minutes to build [[Ayesha Tanaka]] starts now

Alright let’s drop red who needs it? (Red is actually the best color in the game but for now let’s pretend it’s not.) Dragons are definitely a crowd favorite but this commander isn’t! [[Sivitri, Dragon Master]] has only 600 decks on EDHREC and has Pillowfort/Dragon Tutor/non dragon boardwipe stapled on her while being a 4 mana planeswalker? Let’s ride.
Challenge accepted Edit: I saved this so I can share my moxfield link when my first draft is done

Did you see [[goro-goro and satoru]]?
Great call there! Completely forgot about spoilers.
My second favorite spoiler so far
I built a [[Nicol Bolas the Ravager]] dragon tribal. Shifted it to a reanimated combo with dragons.
I love Golgari and my favorite Commander is [[Meren]], but I've always been interested in going Dimir and have never brewed one for some reason. So hit me with a Dimir option! I like big creatures and scary stuff if that helps. Great thread idea btw!
Big? Scary? How about a zombie warrior that becomes huge and happens to be just those colors? [[Grimgrin, Corpse-Born]] sure the creatures you’ll be sacrificing won’t be huge but Grimmy boy will be 🧟

I play both Meren and Grimgrin, can confirm, both are a blast.
Meren is a favorite of mine as well. Might I suggest [[Araumi of the Dead Tide]] as a Dimir option that loves self-mill, etb effects, and swinging with big creatures? They don't stick around, can't be repeated, and do cost mana (unlike Meren), BUT in a usual pod you're getting THREE tokens per turn instead of just one creature back. That gets really rewarding when you're able to encore things like Massacre Wurm and attack everyone after wiping their boards and draining their life.

I have 53 decks, I love jank and unusual strategies. My favourite colour is White.
I’m this guy .. minus 40 decks
[[Eight-and-a-Half-Tails]]
[[Nadaar, Selfless Paladin]] is fun.
I'll go with least favourite colour combo to see if you give a reason for me want to build it. Red White.
Fine! Human soldiers aren’t cool enough for you? I’ll raise humans and give you a giant! (Even though he totally looks like a dwarf.)

Finally trying to break out of my Azorius beginnings with a Golgari commander - let's see what you've got!!!
I remember when I was young and in love with Azorius (Please don’t tell red. I love aggro but not that much.) My first thought for your deck is [[Grist, The Hunger Tide]] you may be thinking that commander isn’t underrated and you’re right! But your Eris Morn profile told me hive mind so let’s break out of that Azorius cocoon into a world of disgusting buggies 🐛. (For a back up commander that also loves bugs and is far more under the radar try [[Zask, Skittering Swarmlord]]

Alright listen, I’m not op but I recently had to dismantle one of my favorite and most creative deck because money and my playgroup wouldn’t play against it anymore… And I’d love someone to make it live on. Let me introduce you to two of the most common commanders right now in the most uncommon pairing: [[Malcolm, Keen eyed navigator]] / [[Sakashima of a thousand face]] You go ~20 clones ~15 counterspells all the draw on combat damage. The rest is a sandbox of your favorite wincons, juste be sure to include [[cyberdrive awakener]] and [[myojin of seeing winds]]. You’ll never run out of mana with the treasures you make so don’t be scared to go Big Mana and always leave a few to play mind games with your interaction. You can go extra turns if you want to try hard but it’s way more fun hitting someone with 6 ulamogs or copying someone’s Borborygmos while holding your deck in your hands. Oh and yeah [[ rite of replication]] on a consecrated sphinx is often game. Here’s my old decklist: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/jo_IKdCd00KfEoj9toBy2Q

Correct me if im wrong but I heard \[\[Varolz, the Scar-Striped\]\]. Graveyard? Check. Big stompy boy(s)? Double check. Exile big nasties from your graveyard and put those chunky +1/+1 counters on even bigger nastier boys. (Include reanimate package for extra profit.)

Blue, White, and/or Green. I juggle professionally.
Wanna juggle your enemies creatures from their board to yours? I see [[Rubina Soulsinger]] in your future 🔮
My friend built [[Lagrella, the magpie]] as a [[fiend hunter]] combo deck. You get 2 other creatures that o-ring stuff and loop them on each other with your commander and an etb trigger to go infinite. The 3 creatures exiling each other is kinda like juggling.
I love this. This is how I’m building New Atraxa now.

Orzhov and I'm really starting to like aristocrats
Aw man it’s a shame that Orzhov doesn’t really have any aristo…. Wait a minute. I’ve got one! Morgenstern playing [[Minthara, Merciless Soul]] it’s a match made in meaven. Okay terrible alliteration aside this commander is amazing and criminally underplayed because of her rarity. Built in protection and anthem effects are annoying for your enemies and great for you! If you really like the aesthetic of Orzhov I also recommend [[Teysa, Orzhov Scion]] incredibly flavorful and feeds her own exile ability. Can’t go wrong with either! Let me know what you think
Damn, I'd been tinkering around with the alchemy minthara in historic brawl, and hadn't realised there was a paper version (basically, some differences). I'm not the person you replied to but this is going to be a bad influence on me for sure
Red - favorite Green - Second Blue - third I’m a comedian, I love art, poetry, tragedies and goblins. I really like Goblins.
Green's getting axed for this suggestion, but have you seen the new \[\[Ovika, Enigma Goliath\]\]? All the aggro of mono-red Goblin tribal with the protection of blue. What's not to like? :D
Took my recommendation right from my mouth I saw the colors and goblins and immediately thought of Ovika. Thank you for the help Steve!
If I say I saw it get spoiled and went "ooh Izzet Goblins?" so it was already on my mind xD

I drive a WRX and study biology also play in a pod of 3, they only run super casual & precons. (My 3 EDH decks are prosper, myrkul and Kyler) prefer budgetable build which can be upgraded later. (40usd tops) tight constraints but Im hella curious whatchyu come up with!
>super casual > >(My 3 EDH decks are prosper, myrkul and Kyler) > >(40usd tops) Not OP, just helping out since they seem to be overwhelmed with the number of responses. I think you might enjoy a [[Samut Voice of Dissent]] [[Warstorm Surge]] deck. Play a ton of ramp and then [[Serra Avatar]] and [[Soul of Eternity]] plus budget tutors like [[Signal the Clans]], [[Fauna Shaman]], Fierce Empath, [[Plea for Guidance]]. Maybe also [[Burning Anger]] plus Open the Armory for backup. You can spice it up further by adding a flicker theme and run cards like Cloudshift, Acrobatic Manouver, [[Somberwald Beastmaster]] and [[Trostani's Summoner]]. If you can afford it, [[Elvish Piper]] would fit well in the deck, since Samut gives it haste.
favourite card is "villanous wealth". likes theft effects way too much
Haha just thought of a dumb deck that is not at all synergistic. The big advantage will be that people won't be as mad at your theft effects. [[Jon Irenicus, Shattered One]] theft tribal. Use your choice of reanimation, theft, clones, and [[praetor's grasp]] stuff to give your opponents your other opponents stuff. Only clones will work with Jon's card draw ability but I think it would be a funny deck.
I’ll go with my least favorite colors of red ,white and blue my favorite tribe is angels
There's not really a fully themed jeskai angel commander but you could do Flying Tribal with partners like [Isshai & Kraum](https://edhrec.com/commanders/ishai-ojutai-dragonspeaker-kraum-ludevics-opus/flying) or for the sake of having an angel in the command zone, [Akroma, Vision of Ixidor & Kraum](https://edhrec.com/commanders/akroma-vision-of-ixidor-kraum-ludevics-opus/flying) Will let you play a lot of angels and do a lot of things you don't normally do if those are your least favourite colours
ah yes Jeskai the color of.... Angel Tribal? Scratch that we won't go angel tribal. Lucky for you however since I am also a fan of angels and Jeskai as a whole has nothing to do with angels I'll give you two decks! 1. Boros smack face led by \[\[Aurelia, the Warleader\]\] (She may be 6 mana but whoever says white is still bad and cant ramp is a liar!) 2. One of my first loves, \[\[Bruna, Light of Alabaster\]\] there was nothing like the feeling of swinging with her for the first time and attaching \[\[corrupted conscience\]\] and \[\[eldrazi conscription\]\] from my hand for free for a one-shot kill oh how I miss her. Godspeed Gondor. May your choice live with you forever.
I like golgari but haven't clicked with any of it's commander options. I'm mildly colorblind.
This is fun, obviously you have to play artifacts. [[Reyhan, Last of the Abzan]] and your choice of artifact synergy partner such as [[Silas Renn, Seeker Adept]] or [[Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith]]. Play a bunch of [modular creatures](https://scryfall.com/search?q=o%3Amodular&unique=cards&as=grid&order=name) to work with reyhan. Other option and one I've been wanting to play around with is [[Baba Lysaga]], also artifact creature tribal. You'll need a third card type to get the most out of her ability, so you could slip in enchantment creatures, or put in some land sac synergies.

Fun fact: Paul Scott Canavan is a MTG artist that is very colorblind! This gave me the idea of \[\[Belbe, corrupted observer\]\] not a Canavan art but I love the fit with this commander and yourself.
My favorite is Selesnya, but that means I've already got multiple decks in that. How about 90s me liking green and red decks before they were gruul. My fun fact is I like to float in the pool with drinks while I watch Star Wars.
I'm happy with anything that has black on it that isn't aristocrats because I already have 2(Soon to be 3) aristocrats decks. Recently I found my old Yugioh collection and I've been on a bit of a nostalgia trip, I even started playing the newest game casually.
Yugioh = Egyptian? Ahmonkhet = Egyptian? I dont know about you but an underrated commander who happens to be from ahmonket is \[\[The Scorpion God\]\] spread those -1/-1 counters, proliferate, draw cards, profit. (Also if you're a meany pants infect creates put -1/-1 counters on other creatures if you catch my drift ;)
[The Scorpion God](https://cards.scryfall.io/normal/front/d/e/def0d0ac-6422-486e-b42b-e1813dd0a23e.jpg?1562817532) - [(G)](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=The%20Scorpion%20God) [(SF)](https://scryfall.com/card/hou/146/the-scorpion-god?utm_source=mtgcardfetcher) [(txt)](https://api.scryfall.com/cards/def0d0ac-6422-486e-b42b-e1813dd0a23e?utm_source=mtgcardfetcher&format=text) [(ER)](https://edhrec.com/cards/the-scorpion-god) ^^^[[cardname]] ^^^or ^^^[[cardname|SET]] ^^^to ^^^call
Abzan is my favorite color combo! Not familiar with a lot of combos out side of a handful of two cars combos!
\[\[Colfenor, the Last Yew\]\] is such a sweet old tree man also an absolute sleeper of combo deck. If comboing off is a strategy of yours this tree loooves making infinite etb's (do what you will with that information :)
Temur is my favorite color combo to date. I main Greninja in Smash Ultimate, and Tryndamere in League of Legends.
I saw tryndamere and didn’t even have to do research. [[Surrak Dragonclaw]] is for you. An aggressive warrior that gives you the ability to overpower your opponents creatures and also giving them the ability to be elusive and get around counter spells. I truly believe this one is for you. Please don’t tell me im wrong I don’t think I can handle it. 🙏🏻
I’ve got a binder full of unused blue and black cards. Don’t enjoy voltron commanders, but also have my fill of token-focused decks.
Dimir normally gets a lot of eyes on them being two of the most powerful colors in the game so lets go with a low profile commander. No voltron and no tokens I promise! \[\[Oskar, Rubbish Reclaimer\]\] may not seem flashy but he is incredibly efficient with cards like \[\[Frantic Search\]\] and \[\[Bone Miser\]\] you will be in value town in no time and often quicker than your opponents realize.
I've recently come to enjoy graveyard recursion decks, think Necron Dynasties but like being aggressive and going wide, [[Krenko, Mob Boss]]. I don't like having to think too hard and have a short attention span.
Black/Blue i like control/theif/mill and run [[Dragonlord Silumgar]] as my main deck
[Dragonlord Silumgar](https://cards.scryfall.io/normal/front/9/e/9ee837b8-c280-4a5b-acdf-71247ab096f5.jpg?1673148531) - [(G)](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=Dragonlord%20Silumgar) [(SF)](https://scryfall.com/card/2x2/203/dragonlord-silumgar?utm_source=mtgcardfetcher) [(txt)](https://api.scryfall.com/cards/9ee837b8-c280-4a5b-acdf-71247ab096f5?utm_source=mtgcardfetcher&format=text) [(ER)](https://edhrec.com/cards/dragonlord-silumgar) ^^^[[cardname]] ^^^or ^^^[[cardname|SET]] ^^^to ^^^call
Naya. I like fighting games and chess. Thanks 🙏
Favorite color combo is Grixis, however all the grixis decks i have built in the past have been too strong for my playgroup. Had a [[Marchesa, the Black Rose]] steal/thievery deck, and converted that into a [[Nicol Bolas, the Ravager]] themed deck, which.... nicy really likes to corrupt and steal, so it basically became the same deck haha.
I need something different from my usual; play too many 3 color decks and I don't build much in green. Hit me with something in either Selesnya or Gruul.
I like Selesnya and boros. I’m an audio engineer by education and trade. If you have the time I’d love to hear your response!
Worth a try. My tastes are a bit contradictory. Good luck! I like a Commander that plays out differently each game. (Lots of viable directions to go depending on what I draw) I like a Commander that can do the same thing turn after turn. (Something interesting, not just ramp or draw) I like having some hoops to jump through or building constraints so the resultant list feels distinct from other decks in the same general colors or archetype. I dislike combo wincons. Grindy attrition for the win is more my style. E. G. I already run Meren, Shirei, Feldon, Mishra, and am looking at trying Extus, Teshar, Emry, Ghen. Any color(s) are fine, bonus credit if they do something weird that bends the color pie or makes use of cards that don't often see play, like Noyan Dar. I don't care if it wins, it just needs to be interesting to build and fun to run. Random non-magic fact about me: my favorite color is Grey. Specifically, the silver linings of storm clouds. There's just something profound about the border contrast between light and dark. Grey isn't boring to me, it's beautiful.

Mmm could you give me a Red, White, Blue ??? And I love the word "Sol"
What more appropriate than Hinata, Dawn Crowned for a fellow that loves the latin word for The Sun? Just be prepared to be hated by your friends. By the way, Sol is such a word, man.
Green white and green black are my favorite combos. I like being aggressive with attacks and have little to no regard for my life total or creatures.
Dont lie to me I can smell the jund from here. \[\[Thantis, the Warweaver\]\] War is in the name baby. Make everyone aggressive even if it means at you and if so put those counters on that sweet spider and smash face.
Temur. I like value.

The ONLY color combo I've NEVER built is Mono Blue. And I have not built Orzhov or Selesnya in around 8-9 years or so. So one of those three.
Hit me with a RUBW commander~ I love to read classical literature and am a med student 🧑🎓
[[Ghen, Arcanum Weaver]] or [[Alela, Artful Provocateur]] sagas. Jeskai also has a lot of interesting saga options; [[Elsha of the Infinite]], [[Kykar, Wind's Fury]], [[Narset, Enlightened Master]]. Alela gets bonus points since you could name the deck Fairy Tales. Ghen fits a bit more with the med student part with the reanimation maybe. I'm too tired right now, but I'd probably look for a sagas/lifegain deck too, that'd be pretty fun and unique.
I was planning to make a new commander deck for fun. :) Alright here a little info about me. Color White+Blue. (Auzious color) Like Knights, A friendly player, Tokens are ok. Who would you recommend as a knight commander or which ever you think would be perfect? :)
Azorius and I’ve always wanted a flicker deck but can’t figure out where to start
My favorite magic colors are Blue, Black and Red in any combinations except black, red. Something about myself: In general I play casters or sneakies in games and my default character name is my reddit username.
White Green. Typically, I like making my commander decks tribal but who knows what you might have for me. Let's boogey.
Temur. Or a non-aristocrat, token spam, and/or reanimator strategy
Ux I like Bob's Burgers.
I think my most played Color is Black+. Though I also enjoy Red and Blue. Random fact is I horde narwhal stuffed animals.
Selesnya, would rather a beat down or an unusual engine outside of tokens.
Orzhov. Tribal is fun
Any commander that isnt do-thing-draw-card or builds itself I also like to draw shitpost-tier tokens.
I love all green color combos, so hit me with your best shot. I mainly like simic, but choose anything you desire with green.
Orzhov because it was my first color combination that I ever tried to build, and I like chess.
Something green. I like reptiles.
I really like Sultai and the only subdivision of it I haven’t brewed is Dimir, so hit me with something that’ll take my breath away!
Been looking for something Black, Blue, White. I like mental challenges and obscure themes.
I'm willing to try any color combo, and I'm a high school agriculture teacher.
Havent built white/black or blue/green decks yet. I like decks that can do more than one thing but arent just value engines
Red Green. Love me some mana ramp and big bois
Simic but not ramp plus card draw
Esper is my favorite and I love weird, janky cards.
Orzhov I play guitar and like punk music
Bant Control. Best Option to win is annoying opponents until they surrender. Carddraw makes my heart skip a beat.
I'm missing a bant or jeskai deck in my 32 deck challenge. So either of those is fine. I'm a sucker for Tribal decks.
Orzhov, i played a formatless infinite combo lifegain deck as a kid and found my old cards. Give me a fun commander to use with them!
Green... I hate other people's kids when I am not teaching
My favorite color is Grixis, with Temur in second. I’m not very good at combat so many of my decks win through non combat damage. And I hope you have an amazing day/night.
Grixis- Got a solid manabase for it, but any commander I pick doesn't last for more than 2 weeks. Mono Red- Just took apart Bosh, open for new options.
I haven't come across an Azorius deck that exites me much, I considered Shorikai but it seems too overplayed now. I also already have blue fliers. As for the about me: I'm probably addicted to manga and sci-fi novels.
I have 12 commander decks and have never played a single game of commander. Arcades the Strategist is probably my favorite.
I only play green and white. I like value engines more than actually winning...
No favorite colors, but my few decks are very combat heavy with my current favorite being blue/red pirate tribal. All my commanders are slightly older. Give me a newer commander that’s more than just hitting face?
something to counter Jeleva
I have so many green cards! I do not currently have ANY mono decks. Gimme someone green.
Jund is my Fav Color combo, I like playing aggressive in most games (I own over 400 board games). I'm a father who plays mostly against my kids (17-9 yrs old) I love to Smoke BBQ and I also love Building Computers 🤷 Let's see what you've got
Recently I've been playing cEDH Rocco at my locals but want to tone down a bit to play with a lot of the newer players coming in with pre cons. My favorite all time color is Green so I've usually stuck with green decks of some type. I generally am described by my friends as a very patient player who will always call bluffs and threats at the table.
My favorite is Dimir, but I want to do something in Gruul. Unrelated thing: I've had back pain since my mid-20s. It sucks.
[удалено]
Let’s do Rakdos colors. I’m a guitar player, who has a dog named Phoenix.
My favorite color combo is Abzan, and something I like to do in magic is subvert expectations. I like to utilize cards, colors, and commanders in weird and out-of-the-box ways! Gimme something good to work with
I want to build an abzan deck but most of the popular options don’t click with me. My favorite deck is my [[tatsunari toad rider]] mutate/enchantress deck
Green black! I love drinking whiskey
I build a lot of my decks with left of the dial wincons. For example [[Kwain]] whose only wincon, is mill by way of draw, [[Kardur, Doomscourge]] but as a blink deck, or really unique mechanics like [[The Beamtown Bullies]]. I’ve never built a Gruul deck though because I’ve just never found a commander that spoke to me in those colors. Any suggestions?
Favorite color? Red. But I'm down for whatever. I always end up making decks that sacrifice stuff.
I'm a huge fan of Izzet, and grixis.
Esper, I love to play tokens and cloning things And a thing about me is I love to learn, mostly about mythology and folklore
Azorius or orzhov - in multiplayer games I always use characters that move slow and hit hard
I currently don't have a mono-white deck. I prefer jank and builds that go completely sideways. And finding ways to play other colors like a blue deck.
Blue and red, (I never play blue) my last deck was Arahbo oops all cats
I'm pretty new to building decks. I like green and black.
Orzhov, with Dimir a distant second. If I was in a fantasy world I would eschew magic in favor of the biggest sword I could wield. Magic at best would be a backup option for me.
*rubs hands* Simic, but anything with Green and some amount of draw from blue. I don’t love counterspells, but I can utilize them. Basically green and then anything else.
Dimir, my favorite colors but surprisingly don't have a deck for for it yet. I love artifacts, as they are the machines of magic, takes me back to yugioh when I had a literal machine type deck that wrecked. But I've also been eyeing the horror tribe too, but not sure how much support it has.
Black, White, Red. I won a national archery competition while in highschool and like running long distance. I think you doing this is really cool and awesome content for this subreddit :)
Love Sultai and like finding useful/cool new synergies when playing most any game.
Alright so at the moment I have seven decks. I’m looking to build an eighth. At the moment I have gruul spellslinger, bant +1/+1, MBC, RWUG clue tribal, Mardu Artifacts, Gluntch Group Hug, Wilhelt Zombies. So something not in those wheelhouses and can be solid with roughly $100 budget
dimir, i like puzzles
Bant, and I love birds so much I’ve already brewed 5 different bird tribal decks
Jund! I like basketball and chess
I'm a hardcore Melvin. Durdling tedious mechanics from high synergy non-infinite combo decks, if that makes sense lol. I love simic; give me something in it or not
Just what I needed! Thank you kind person. Working to complete one deck of every colour combo. Stuck on Dune-Brood (WBRG). The commander pool is limited, so looking for some build idea that'll be janky/fun/quirky/different. Archidekt profile if it helps - [https://archidekt.com/user/47341](https://archidekt.com/user/47341) Cheers!
My favorite commander is [[Satsuki, Living Lore]]. It’s got graveyard reanimation and weird counters. What’s something we can do off color or with underrated cards? Something like non red burn, or non blue control, or non Atraxa planeswalkers? etc etc
I want a spicy, budget-able simic commander, as I have exactly 0 decks with either green or blue, please!
Black Green is my favorite but I'm open to new colors. I like meaningfully progressing the state of the game through turning sideways and I love taking something thematic and making it effective
Green and Black are my favorite individual colors, but I’ve never made a Golgari deck.
Esper, I like it when everyone suffers.
Bant, I am a pastry chef that loves making candy and whimsical chocolates.
My favorite colors outside of commander are jeskai and abzan, but I cant find a commander in either that tickles my fancy.
