Wanting to make a new commander, dont want to play black, and want to play at least 2 colours, ideas?
{Saffi Eriksdotter}? Could be fun.
{Geist of st.traft}, {krenko mob boss} {tojic blade of the legion} {gwafa high priorities} are some that just jump into mind. You looking for mono, dual or tri coloured commanders?
{vish kal, blood arbiter} is pretty sick if the deck is well constructed, and {wrexial, the risen deep} is quickly becoming a favorite of mine, black blue mill deck with mostly zombies and undead alchemist
{Vish Kal} for sure! {Rakdos, Lord of Riots} and {Nath of the Gilt-Leaf} are also fun.
What's wrong with black? {Bruna, Light of Alabaster} is really fun to play, she gets all of her auras for free, so getting things like {Eldrazi Conscription} on the battlefield are very easy. I like to run {Corrupted Conscience} as well. A U/W commander is especially fun because you have access to all of the best removal ({Path to Exile}, {Wrath of God}, etc. as well as counter spells. Other great U/W commanders include {Grant Arbiter Auguston, IV}, and {Geist of Saint Traft}.
{Prime Speaker Zegana} is a good one

I recently had to sell a few cards and all my black edh staples went away with them.
I have decided on {linessa, zephyr mage} to be my general, any card ideas?

Why did you pick her?
Yeah, why her? You can't use her second ability in EDH...
And the first ability costs too much to be wasting all that mana every turn.....just seems like a stalemate card.

Ive never seen it used and it could be fun.
{Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir} or {Kira, Great Glass-Spinner} are better commander choices if you want to go mono blue. Like LadyGrixis said, the second ability on your Mage is unusable in EDH.
{Talrand, the Sky Summoner} is amazing and really difficult to deal with.

Counterspell. Tokens.
{Phelldagryff}. 'Nuff said. If you want to win but lose friends, {Zur, the Enchanter}.

Actually, you can. Commander decks are 99 cards... and a commander. If you have an extra copy of your commander, it's fine.
Edit: You can also just use your general for its colors. A lot of {U} generals are pretty nasty, but this one has a repeatable unsummon and doesn't look so intimidating.

I'm fairly certain that's not how it works. EDH is designed to be a singleton format. If you were allowed two copies of your commander, that would kind of defeat the purpose.

I don't know about unusable, I'm sure there's some goofy way to use it, but probably not even close to worth it.

Not unusable as in unplayable, but as in the fact that EDH is a singleton format so using grandeur is impossible.

This is wrong. You can only have one of each card; this includes your commander.

Youre right. I looked it up. I need to start looking up rulings when people in my lgs open their mouths... -.-
