Title: What commander deck should I make?
Post by: Taysby on September 15, 2013, 08:19:19 PM
I want to make a commander deck but don't know which one to make.  What are fun ones to play that still win a lot?

It all depends on your play style and on what commander appeals to you

Ultimately this. The best place to start is to either pick a color scheme, or skip that step and pick a commander that sounds fun (which will pick your color scheme for you if you do).

Try this!
In card database, run under the following filters:

Search: "Legendary"
Types selected,
Name & Text unselected

Color: (choose color scheme if you want a certain one and select "match colors exactly")
Or
Color: (Leave blank or pick a color you want in the deck, and do NOT select match exactly)

Type drop-down: Creature


This should show you all legendary creatures, filtered to your color preferences. I've spent a lot of time browsing them, looking for possible commanders to build around that resonate with me.

{Ghave, Guru of Spores} is one I have been wanting to make for a while.  Tokens for days.

Tribal Treefolk with {Doran, the Siege Tower} is always fun :) and if you google {Pheldagrif} EDH, plenty of ideas pop up. And honestly, if you love those two, then I'd start out with those :D because EDH is all about fun times and the cards you love.

For example, I love Elesh Norn & Oliva Voldaren....therefore, I created a storyline with Elesh that was kind of Silent Hill styled, and I built a Tribal Vampire with Olivia that rocks my soul.

I hope that helps? Hahaha.
