Wanting to make a new commander, dont want to play black, and want to play at least 2 colours, ideas?

Spikepit

 {Saffi Eriksdotter}? Could be fun.

Yawgmoth85

{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?

TezzereT

{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

LadyGrixis

{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?

LadyGrixis

Yeah, why her? You can't use her second ability in EDH...

LadyGrixis

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.
