Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth

Who is a better commander for token EDH, {Rhys the Redeemed} or {Trostani, Selesnya's Voice}.

LordJanova


DylanW18

Depends


{Test of Endurance} and {Felidar Sovereign} are better with Trostani, but an Aggro tokens would be Rhys, Trostani is more midrange


Kaworu, the Fifth Child

Rhys is a boss. So overwhelming!

MuggyWuggy

I use Trosti

Riis is cool but he's so whimpy you end up having to resummon for mucho money

Trosti is critical for those colors as she gives you life and is a good wall.

Plus when you ultimate  {Ajani Goldmane} and populate while she's out and has {illusionist bracers} (or Riis has them with her out): life gain is ridiculous. I've gotten 14x avatar tokens with 168k/168k

Needless to say I won that game ;)

Neither, it's Riku of the Two Reflections :P
Dude poops tokens out of non-token spells, copies token producers AND lets you play Blue
Yes, he also gives you access to Kiki, but you lose {W} which has a lot of token awesomeness. Like {Rhys the Redeemed}, {Trostani, Selesnya's Voice}, {Advent of the Wurm}, {Armada Wurm}, {Ajani, Caller of the Pride}....

 {Krenko, Mob Boss} says hello. Anyone want goblins?

Gorzo

I'm extremely happy with {Ulasht the Hate Seed} as my token commander. Who needs white token soldiers and knights when you can have red token elementals, dragons, goblins, and hellions!

And there's nothing I love doing more with my token deck than having {Parallel Lives} and/or {Doubling Season} out and casting {Hellion Eruprion}, and copying it a bunch of times with {Wort, the Raidmother} conspiring and {Reverberate} effects. Surprise! It's a few hundred hellions out of nowhere!

Access to doubling season, parallel lives, copying a kicked rite of replication targeting avenger of zendikar/craterhoof behemoth/palinchron....


Dare I say... Worldgorger dragon? Hahahaha

If it is between token generals the Rhys. If it is selesnya generals than  {Captain Sisay} always

Vileo

Rhys can go infinite. I pick him.

Vileo

{Thousand-Year Elixir}, {Dual Nature}, {Seeker of Skybreak}, {Llanowar Mentor} (Or just {Llanowar Elves}), Rhys. Play Elixir and Dual Nature, play your Mentor (or just Llanowar Elves) and Seeker and Rhys. Make some Llanowar Elves tokens you can tap for mana, use your Seeker to untap Rhys. Make sure to have some big tokens as well, though. You can replace Elixir with {Concordant Crossroads}, etc.

At best a four card combo is a little flimsy.  Too easy to disrupt.  I do like reading about combos though.  My mind is not sharp enough to pick up on any combos requiring more than 2 cards.  LOL

Anywho...plus one for the combo!

Oh I love Johnny Combos, and yeah, they're really hard to come across.

Combo Corner is probably my favorite thing on the internet.
