Deck Description

I looked through my cards, found the ones I liked. Then I weeded some out until I had the makings of a deck. This is the first draft.

How to Play

This deck is all about getting a few creatures out for defense, and mana building to get larger creatures out to do damage. Essentially, a five color beast deck.

Deck discussion for Five Color Moil

A problem with having single creatures instead of multiples is that you are going to run into them very infrequently. In fact, there is a good chance for all of them that you will not see them the entire game. Also you have too few lands. Go at least for 20 though 23 is a good number, especially for a 5 color deck. Additionally you need color fixing in order to achieve all 5 colors more easily.

As for your card selections, you are trying to do way too many things at once. Nothing supports anything else. The phrase that comes to mind is "Jack of all trades, master of none". You should look to synergize and search for complementing cards. I would suggest looking into a specific theme for a deck. If you really do intend to pursue all 5 colors in a single deck then I would point you toward looking at creatures and other spells that are all 5 colors or in some way incorporate all 5 colors into there theme.

If you want pure beatdown then I would suggest green and red to be the colors you should focus on.

I wish you luck in your deck building and hope I have been of some help.
Lastly, you should look at others decks to find ideas you like. You could expand on a theme that you see or even take their themes and tweak them enough to really make them your own.

-Cheers

I have since added 6 more lands, increasing it to a 66 card deck, as I ran into that problem. And the reason that there's only one of most creatures is that a) it is the remnants of an EDH deck (that I gave up on, I should figure out standard before I move onto Commander), and b) I simply don't have multiples.

And, to be quite frank, I have no idea what I'm doing. I've never built a multi color deck before, and I'm not very good at building even single color decks. The point of this deck isn't to rely on any one creature or card, but rather just let me play. I can get creatures out relatively quickly for blocking, and those keep me going until I can get some of the larger creatures out there. That's how I intend to play it, anyway. I have no way of play testing it. And, as my funds are severely limited, I can't buy new cards, thusly my cards are very limited. I have a random assortment of cards from 1994 to Zendikar/Eldrazi. Nothing past them. My plan is to build a deck with what I have that can win, and then go to some local game shops and play for more cards.
