So I'm looking to make a superfriends commander. I know I'm either going to use progenitus or Cromat (which I already have). My question is what kind of landbase would you guys suggest(cheap would be nice) and what planeswalkers should I include.

Fenster

Well cheapest you can get are the new guildgates. With gatecrash thats 10 dualies that are cheap. Other than that i think the "Tainted" lands are pretty cheap. Bounce lands arent too expensive either

Gorzo

Cheap + superfriends doesn't exactly mix, them walkers are expensive!

But yeah, guild gates for sure are cheap dual lands, and you will probably want guild signets and bounce lands from old Ravnica too. The Zendikar "refuge lands are pretty cheap too. Alara triple lands like {Crumbling Necropolis} aren't very expensive either.  {Chromatic Lantern} is going to be a must-have for you.

As for your walkers, you're talking about 100 (about 60 non-land) cards in a singleton format, so...you can fit every planeswalker ever printed and still have room left.

Wow. 40 planeswalkers in the deck imagine that.

I would love to see it happen, especially with {doubling season} in there. But that deck would cost a fortune that is way beyond my budget lol

Oh god, the though just occurred to me... {Creeping Renaissance} naming... planeswalkers.

I'm just going to go proxy up a deck. Don't pay any attention to me at all...

This is seriously one investment i'm willing to make. These planeswalkers are awesome and having like 10+ out at a time seems incredibly good.. The only thing I'm thinking is i'll need a lot of token gen.

Also gorzo what do you think about the lair lands? They go along with the conflux tri lands.

If you want a lot of token gen deffinitly include all 3 garruk's and  {Elspeth, Knight-Errant}

I plan on using every planeswalker minus new jace. He just seems like a bummer when your playing jace TMS and baby jace

The mind sculptor, yes. Baby jace no way. Have you seen new jace in action? -2 is nuts card advantage especially in commander since its a somewhat slow format. Rip best card out of opponents library and yours? Winning

Gorzo

I'm drawing a blank on lair lands, link one for me?

I like new Jace, his ultimate in Multiplayer games is nuts, and mini {fact or fiction} is nice too.

I look forward to seeing what you come together with!

{crosis's lair}

And I'm not to sold on new jace right now. I'll see if he'll drop in the next few weeks then maybe I'll get one

I think you mean {Crosis's Catacomb}
{Darigaaz's Caldera}
{Treva's Ruins}
{Rith's Grove}
{Dromar's Cavern}
That's all I can remember. There's one for each of the Invasion legendary Tri color dragons that had when it deals damage pay 3 and chose a color for an effect to happen ( {Darigaaz, the Igniter}  {Treva, the Renewer}  {Rith, the Awakener}. Etc.)

Greg54js

Yes thanks I couldnt remember their names offhand

Gorzo

They seem good if you have lands with ETB effects to bounce.

{Chromatic Lantern} is a much more efficient color fixer though. Tutor/{Fabricate} for it.
