So, these are singles from the Riku deck that I want to order for my Riku commander deck soon. What should I add/take out?
Alrighty, this is what I have so far. Thoughts? Also, considering adding {Wolfir Silverheart} and {Roil Elemental}. Help, please!
Lot of extra turn spells! They work stweetly with riku!
Good idea! Maybe Ral, Time Warp, and things like Panoptic Mirror?
Don't forget {Lightning Bolt} and {Giant Growth} !!
You can't go wrong with the boon cycle 😜
Boon? So I should add extra turn shenanigans, and things like Imprint and things like giant growth.

The Boon Cycle is a horizontal cycle of cards which cost one mana and have an effect involving the number 3. The Cycle appeared in Alpha, Beta and Unlimited. The comparative strength of the cards is quite high and also includes a member of the Power Nine.
The cards in the cycle are:
{Healing Salve}
{Ancestral Recall}
{Dark Ritual}
{Lightning Bolt}
{Giant Growth}
So, thinking to add extra turn shenanigans, things with Imprint, and then the {Simic Charm}.
And {Lightning Bolt} and {giant Growth}.
So, should I order all the singles stated? (In the deck and my posts).
{isochron scepter} if you're going to add {1} drop instants...
Works with {riku of two reflections} also...
Yeah, that is in the "things with imprint" category.
{Decimate}
{Echo Mage}
{Temporal Mastery}
{Great Whale}
{Peregrine Drake}
Consider {Time Warp} too !!
Alright. This will be a hella lot of money.
How is this? (Note: in Commander, {Psnoptic Mirror} is NOT legal and JtMS is. Lol).
Because JtMS doesn't give you an extra turn every upkeep...
Yeah... That's true. It IS a broken card in the right deck. I'm surprised {Reaseaech // Developmrnt} is still legal!!
So, is this a good deck?
I'd switch out the {syncopate} and the {cancel} for {dissipate} and {spell crumple}
Alright, seem like good replacements. And maybe cancel with {Counterflux} instead?
{last word}
Mana base needs A LOT of work... That being said...
Riku is my main commander, so I have a lot of opinions regarding the options available for RUG...
I have found that by far the most successful versions of riku are what I refer to as "creature toolboxes".
Creatures with unique (or not) etb abilities that are still valuable when copied.
That being said... Torpor orb is your worst enemy...
Imagine bribery... Copied... And copying each creature you snag out of your opponents decks... Value :)
If you want, I can re input the current version of my riku for you, but it might take a day or two...Then post it so you can take a look at a highly tuned "tournament" riku deck...

I know, the mana is still in progress. And this is new, so I would like that 😉
Okay, so what should I edit? I want to have it as good as possible before I trade for the cards.
Bumped my original version of riku - life has been throwing curveballs my way, in and out of the hospital so I haven't had time to update, but I hope you get an idea do what the deck is like and can use it as a reference point for your own build. :)
