XD XD XD  Totally!

Also, {Brothers Yamazaki} sux!
And {Chandler}, {Daughter of Autumn}, {General Jarkeld}, {Gosta Dirk}, {Haakon, Stromgald Scourge}...  (okay, at this point, I'm just going through all crappy legendary creatures... I'll stop now.)   ;D

Any of those legendary creatures with only a P/T but nothing else

Yeah, just about any legend from the aptly named Legends or Homelands are pretty much flaming piles of garbage.

{Karona, False God} would be pretty bad too.

Actuall I saw a very well done deck around karona

Fair enough. It would be a very "interesting" commander.

Casting from the command zone counts as from your hand I believe.

Not in my experience. But I'm not familiar with the rules WotC endorsed with the release of the Commander decks.

Nope. If you cast Phage from the command zone you will lose, unless {Platinum Angel} is rocking the field next to her. Or your opponent has an {abyssal persecutor} staring at you. Could also try {Lich's Mirror} if you're feeling dangerous.

Phage also works with {torpor orb} and {sundial of the infinite}.

Don't forget curly brackets =]

With her "You lose." trigger on the stack, end the turn. It gets swept under the rug and you keep a shiny death-stick.

Just as long as nobody {Flicker}s her. 👿 hehehe

And how are you working it? (just curious cause of previous posts)
Title: Re: The worse commander
Post by: Shivix on April 02, 2012, 01:30:45 PM
There's tons of ways to bring it out, cards that prevent its ability from activating and cards that put it into my hand, it works way better than u think :)

{torper orb}

I only see three possible solutions for a monoblack deck:
{Torpor Orb}
{Sundial of the Infinite Combos}
{Platinum Angel}

In a deck of 100 cards... I'm skeptical.

It is black so stuff like tutors could help, there are like five or six that are playable.

I'm not saying its impossible. It just seems like, as a commander, she's a lot of work to get out. Especially when you can't even cheat her out the conventional ways.  She's
Almost like a puzzle to solve.
