Help My Janky Commander

by s0rinmark0v on 29 October 2017

Command Zone (1 card)

Creatures (1)

Main Deck (16 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

So, the main focus of my new commander build is getting out Possibility Storm and Hive Mind and then screwing over everybody else. I would like to have the deck at a 3 colour max.

Melek, Izzet Paragon might be a good commander. Or Mizzex of the Izmagnus.

I was thinking of adding Black for tutor spells. I'll leave the commander slot open for now until I decide just how many colours I am going to use.

There's only roughly 7 to 9 black tutor spells or so, and the more rare ones are upwards of a hundred dollars or so. Wouldn't say splashing black for an izzet themed deck would work too well. But Mizzex, Melek, and basically any other izzet legendary is a good commander for this theme! Be sure to google izzet copy spells, those are tons of fun.

Hey, you still here s0rinmark0v?

I would put down gelectrode, thermo alchemist, and the like for spot removal and extra damage. If you can find room for any damage-based equipment or enchantments they would get a lot of extra mileage in this deck. Check out Teaching Decks: Izzet Burn for some great combos.

Rebound is great, and distortion strike is especially brutal when combined with your creatures. I would also include kiln fiend. Northern Warlord's deck Death Guaranteed is a good source of inspiration for this sort of playstyle.

As for capitalizing on all those instants being thrown around, I would plan on a lot of my own creatures dying to all that removal, so buff spells, like titan's strength, and creatures that love being killed, and hexproof if you can fit it in. Also, since copies of spells almost never count as spells for the purposes of triggering abilities (see 706.10) echo mage, dual casting, and the like might give you a significant edge once those spells really start flying. By the above ruling, copies of spells with cascade and similar on cast effects do not have those effects, as they were not cast, so those would be great choices for spells.

That reminds me - you really might want to have a copy of the comprehensive rules and any errata for your cards on hand if you are planning on playing this deck with anyone who is a stickler for rules. This stuff gets as complicated as the imperium of man's legal system.
