I wanted to make a merfolk based edh deck, but I have never an edh deck before. Could I get some advice on what to put in it? Thanks in advance.

There are two Syggs.
{Sygg the River Cutthroat} is {U}{B}, while {Sygg, the River Guide} is {U}{W}. Both make very powerful tribal commanders. Fenster's deck is a great example of what you can do with the Cutthroat.
River Guide, on the other hand is a fantastic control deck. The cheap {Mother of Runes} type effect makes your merfolk really tough to deal with, letting you buy time with protected blocks and attack unopposed with protected attacks. I've seen this deck in action and it is very effective. Accelerate your mana if possible to let you use Sygg's ability as often as possible, and still have mana left to cast a spell or two.
Oh foolish me /facepalm
Sygg River Cutthroat can make amazing infinite combos.
{Stonybrook Schoolmaster}/{Judge of Currents}/Any merfolk with a tap ability + {Pemmin's Aura}/{Freed from the Real} + {Paradise Mantle}.
