Caesar, Legion’s Emperor is a 4-mana Mardu commander with a fairly simple gameplan: Grow your army until you can take out the competition. Attack, sacrifice one of your creatures, and choose between getting more Soldiers, drawing a card, or...
Read moreIt’s not every day that you build an EDH deck around a colorless commander, and an Eldrazi commander to boot. Zhulodok, Void Gorger is an Eldrazi/colorless commander that was designed to be a less mana-intensive option than the traditional...
Read moreToday, I’ll introduce you to one of my personal favorites from Outlaws of Thunder Junction, an Esper commander whose schemes revolve around the intricate web of enchantments and the art of stealing your opponent’s creatures.
Read moreVannifar, Evolved Enigma is a trap if you build the deck the way this Simic commander seems to want you to play it. You know what seems fun here; stack the deck with a bunch of huge Eldrazi, cheat them out with cloak, and then blink them to flip...

Read moreThat’s right. After somehow managing to talk about Rakdos every chance I got, I’m finally writing about a Rakdos commander. However, this isn’t a “pure Rakdos” deck in the sense that I didn’t build it thinking in building around the commander...
