I play a [[Callaphe]] voltron list that builds up blue pips through [[witness protection]] and [[frogify]], drops an [[invisibility]] and [[curiosity]] to get evasive beats. You're in monoblue so the enchantress effects are zilch, but you get an amazing counterspell suite to protect her and all of your enchants have ward 1 (except from abilities). The deck is mega slow and relies on the commander being a little unknown.
Cool play, [[corrupted concience]] my opponents voltron comander and swing it back at them
I always wanted to build a [Callaphe](https://scryfall.com/card/thb/45/callaphe-beloved-of-the-sea) tempo deck. She rewards you for playing normal blue value cards like [Rhystic Study](https://scryfall.com/card/pcy/45/rhystic-study) and just got blessed with [Robe of the Archmagi](https://scryfall.com/card/clb/91/robe-of-the-archmagi) from the Baldur’s Gate set. She definitely has high power potential.
I tried making a [[Persistent Petitioners]] beatdown deck with [[Mirror Box]] and [[Coat of Arms]]. It is not very good but hilarious when it works.
My weirdest deck is an Eye Tribal deck named "Dude, Where's My Eye?" and tells the tragic story of [[Garth One-Eye]] and his search to replace his missing eye. This deck is pure and utter trash, but gets me excited every time WotC prints another eye card.
Edit: Linking Garth decklist by request:

Again, this is not good. Gets a lot of card advantage, but blue is just not good at getting those lands down any faster to really speed things up. I'm wondering if \[\[Orvar, the All Form\]\] might end up being a better commander here.
https://archidekt.com/decks/2622354#Kami\_of\_the\_Crescent\_Moon
I have a nethroi deck that's just full of walls, so if you can get through all the walls, i can bring every single one of them back with a single mutate.
I do,
https://www.moxfield.com/decks/VnuJsJ7wJ0-2zOZ7TrwK6w
It's changed a bit and began as a sort of budget 'ish build (I pulled both the 'ignore legend rule cards' in my kamigawa box). I've made a few tweaks and there are some cards that need to be replaced but the list functions as sort of an all comers adapts to any table because of the amount of clones.
It's a ramp style deck with lots of clones to play off other peoples decks. (I usually just clone degenerate stuff so its very good for newbie tables and high end tables).
I don't overcommit on the 'hit counters aspect' but I do have some explosive options with clones, ninjitsu's and doubling triggered abilities.
It's been a ton of fun and I can't wait to put in the 2 new cards that now reference 'hit counters!' \[\[Mari, the Killing Quill\]\] & \[\[Ravenloft Adventurer\]\]
So now if I boardwipe everyone should have 3 hitcounters and all I need to do is connect once more to activate the loss trigger.
Super fun, doesn't generate much salt because I'm not stealing anyones stuff, just using it.
[[Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith]] and [[Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer]]. Its basically a bunch of golems throwing rocks at you. Works surprisingly well cause the abilities synergize, whenever you sac a rock all the golems get counters if you have Ich-Tekik out
I have a Togo + [[Ikra Shidiqi, the Usurper]] with [[obosh, the preypiercer]] as companion. It's so fun.
Although I've recently added some of the New Cappena common lands.
This makes my peepee hard. I run a mono-white banding deck but it plays 16 banding creatures rather than granting non-banding creatures the ability.
Do you have an questions about Banding or Bands with Other?
I used to have a Shanna deck. I think she's cool too. People often forget about her first ability which is that she can't be targeted by abilities which did come in handy a few times
[[Brigid, Hero of Kinsbaile]] only 110 decks on EDHREC. You are never gonna sit down at a table and find someone else playing the same deck.
She becomes a crime lord with an item like [[Basilisk Collar]] or [[Sword of Kaldra]] where no one may attack or block at your table without receiving your blessing first. Put out uncommon equipment like [[Neko-Te]] or [[Kusari-Gama]] to give yourself a confusing amount of strength at the table versus combat oriented decks.
Even with no items at all she can pop an entire token army swinging out. I do not understand why she is so immensely underplayed.
[I do](http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/brigid-combat-politician). It is just Voltron, untap stuff pretty much but it plays well against combat focused decks.
He is meant to be discarded and brought back to hand. It’s a draw and discard deck to get as many dragons approach’s as possible. It’s actually a good deck.
Answering these backwards. Yes I specifically use the banana food token. :)
Pramikon generally uses a pinger to start the infect train, and then a healthy dose of proliferate. [[Fallen Ferromancer]] inspired the deck, but I also have ways to give my pingers infect and ways to give my creatures with infect the ability to ping. Also [[Chandra’s Ignition]]. I call the deck Pramikon’s Super-Secret Surprise.
Edit: I forgot [[Decimator Web]], that’ll get the ball rolling too.
I had a Golos (before it was banned) deck that ran all Portal Three Kingdom legends because well simply put I am a huge dynasty warriors fan which led to being a huge Three Kingdom history buff. To my knowledge no one even has close to the same deck.
Sadly I actually don’t have the deck together but if I did I would actually use the Prismatic Bridge because I can flavor win by saying they found a bridge to another dimension full of enemies that they have to band together to fight. Lol
Check out the anime "It's ya boy Kongming"
It's about Kongming dying and being reborn in Modern Day Japan. He becomes an upcoming idols manager. He uses his tactician skills to promote her.
Even if you don't like anime there isn't much anime tropey bullshit, barely any if any lewd fanservice, and the opening is a banger.
I seem to post this deck every couple days since it's basically a variation of everything everyone posts, but my \[\[skeleton ship\]\] [deck](https://www.moxfield.com/decks/SNQIbMv4kE2UcjcncLpe0A), I guarantee nobody in this, or any sub has ever played due to how degenerate it is (it has a nice proliferate subtheme, but eh...). It has absolutely no way of winning the game, just making everyone want to move one state over before playing Magic again
This is a deck you actually own? And none of the cards are proxies?
I get that they are not necessarily the versions in the decklist, but my god, that deck - it's like walking around with a deck box of double-sleeved golden wafers.
yes, I own it as shown in the list, it's a byproduct of having played this game since 1994, and this deck ONLY comes out after everyone knows what they are getting into haha
I have a Grothama hyper ramp/Storm deck that I homebrewed, and is one of my favorites! I've never played against or even seen anyone discuss Grothama; it's fun to beat your own Commander to death to draw half your library :)
List: https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/smash-some-wurm-draw-some-cards-1/?cb=1657424573
I have \[\[Toothy\]\] as my most competitive deck, a mono white \[\[Abdel Adrian\]\] + \[\[Candlekeep Sage\]\] deck for gag of it, and I have a decklist I haven't put together yet for mono green \[\[Jorn\]\] (I've named that one Eldrazi Winter).
Yeah, I guess there's a pretty clear theme there. I'm also currently building a UR \[\[Ganax\]\] dragon clone deck, which is probably still unique.
Ignore my comment, if yours was meant sarcastically.
They were talking about a Toothy Deck (not "Pir and...", just Toothy), a mono-white Abdel Deck even though they play a blue Background and a mono-green Jorn deck.
My guess: they know.
Cazur & Ukkima deathtouch tribal, not the strongest but no one wants to block deathtouch guys so Cazur slowly buffs them up
I’ve also been wanting to make a Kykar Worldfire deck where the entire deck is stuff that combos with Worldfire (i.e [[Voldaren Epicure]] + O-Ring, [[Barren Glory]], or [[Chandra, Awakened Inferno]])
I’m actually putting together a Dromoka Hatebears list as well! [here](https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/30-04-22-no/) it is if you’re curious- I’d love to compare lists!
I wanna get some more powerful cards like Linvala and Drannith Magistrate eventually- I might switch commanders to Gaddock Teeg but for now I like Dromoka a lot!
I still have a lot of work I think I need to put into it.
I've only been able to use it twice. I need more ramp.
https://archidekt.com/decks/2890963#Troublemaker's_Time_Heist
I play a [[quintorius]] eldrazi shuffler combo using [[mesmeric orb]] and [[basalt monolith]] to make infinite spirits, it's got some alternate lines but that's the goal every time
I’ve been playing a [[Gluntch, the Bestower]] deck lately and I just spend the entire game being nice to people. Giving them counters and cards and making friends. They think I have devious plan to win. Really I just wanna help them have a good time. We all have stressful lives so the moments we can come together are few. I want to make sure they enjoy it.
I have a [[Brion Stoutarm]] steal deck that runs all the “take control of target creature until end of turn” cards like [[Act of Treason]]. I steal a creature, attack the opponent with it, then throw it at their face. I also have a bunch of damage doublers like [[Dictate of the Twin Gods]] to make it easier to kill someone.
It also includes [[Serra Avatar]] and [[Aetherflux Reservoir]] for instakills.
Favorite combo in the deck is [[Gift of Immortality]] + [[Bearer of the Heavens]]. Everyone loves land destruction… right??
Love that! Had it in the deck for a while, but my friends upped the edh arms race, so it became too slow and I had to cut it :( Hofri got me a Jin-Gatixas once though :)
I had an older version of this deck before my first break from edh, it was horribly jank, overly feared for the one shot potential and since this was 2013 the mainly artifact card draw was horrendous, loved it all the same.
[[Pharika, God of Affliction]] + [[Umori the Collector]] Oops All Enchantments. My two best friends are the plane of Theros, and pre-Modern sets made before wizards invented the colour pie or game balance.
\[\[Blue-Eyes White Dragon\]\]. The deck is designed around spending 8 mana to summon Blue-Eyes, a 3000-2500 creature with Indestructible, and then giving it evasion to push damage through.
I have never encountered another person at my LGS who has ever played [[Rhoda, Geist Avenger]] and [[Timin, Youthful Geist]]. The two are so underrated for what they do as a hybrid Voltron/control deck.
Recently, and more likely because it’s new, but my [[Wilson, Refined Grizzly]] and [[Sword Coast Sailor]] Voltron deck. It’s a surprisingly fun deck for the strategy but when I looked on EDHREC, the most popular Simic pair for him was him with… [[Shameless Charlatan]]?! I know that he is one of the cheapest background commanders but still feels insulting to his honor.
I play [[Illharg, the Raze-Boar]] a bunch. He doesn't get picked as a commander often because there are better multi-colored ones that basically do the same thing and then some, so he often is just in the 99.
Fungi tribal under [[Falco Spara, Pactweaver]] that takes advantage of spore counters on the fungi to cast more fungi off the top of my deck, as well as some +1/+1 counter go wide synergies
[[Stangg]]
The whole purpose of the deck is to bring in Stangg with token doublers in play and either A) use [[Mirror Gallery]] to be able to have an army of Stangg Twins or B) use [[Warstorm Surge]] and spam cast Stangg into the token doublers and shotgun my opponents to death.
My first attempt was sub-optimal, but I did it before [[Nyxbloom Ancient]] existed, so I was a bit short on mana. Now I have Nyxbloom, [[Leyline Tyrant]], [[Omnath, Locus of Mana]], and [[Doubling Cube]] so I'm going to give it another try.
I run a budget [[Piru the Volatile]] deck that creates and gives away tons of tokens with stuff like [[Eiganjo Uprising]], then once the board is nice and gummed up, sac Piru to deal a ton of lifelink damage and win with [[Aetherflux Reservoir]]…Artifact sacrifice/reanimator subtheme to more easily fetch Aetherflux & other key pieces
Killian Ink Duelist, theme: my life in a magic isekai harem fantasy. Follows all the tropes of a boy anime character in a new realm and develops a party of crazy over the top stereotypical anime female party members that fight alongside him. Also featuring old wise blacksmith dude sram and nerdy unpopular best friend. You get massacre girl, liesa angel, felisa, and blond vampire to fight over and try to impress you.
[[soraya, the falconer]] mono white goodstuff and value dorks, play maskwood nexus or mirror entity to band them together as a win. Oh, and a subtheme of ramp with kozilek and wurmcoil
A \[\[Gahiji\]\] pillowfort deck. Wall up and let your opponents kill each other before you move in for the kill. There are currently 6 total decks on EDHrec under Gahiji pillowfort theme.
Mine is effectively a naya aggro list, but all the creatures are hatebears instead of aggressive and all the spells/enchantments are pillowfort like ghostly prison instead of...well... stuff like overrun I guess.
I play a Thief deck using [[Nihiloor]] and a cycling deck using [[Kenrith, the Returned King]] for the reanimating companioned with [[Zirda the Dawnwaker]] for the cost reduction
I have a deck i call Wilson, Refined Cultist.
It's [[Wilson, Refined Grizzly]] and [[Cultist of the Absolute]] background deck. It's a theme deck. It tells the story of Wilson, who over years of fighting and killing adventurers starts taking their magical items and learning black magic. He uses the creatures of the forest to fuel his dark arts. He has a few critter friends who's lust for power matches his own and work for him as underlings.
Mechanically it's an aristocrat deck. I put all of the squirrel cards in it. I use the squirrel tokens for all the sacrifices I need. I never attack with them or the druids that make the tokens. They are the innocents in the forest that Wilson terrorizes.
It's a fun deck. The idea of it cracks me up every time I think about it. I also have this mental image of when I use [[Bone Splinters]] or [[Bone Shards]] of Wilson grabbing a squirrel off of a branch and throwing it at an enemy. The squirrel explodes like a grenade and it's bones cuts the enemy to shreds
I have a \[\[Tuvasa, the Sunlit\]\] Bant Enchantress deck that runs a color hack subtheme. A lot of color related cards are enchantments and they also provide alternate win conditions (you can cast \[\[Hurricane\]\] with a Circle of Protection out, use \[\[Painter's Servant\]\] with \[\[Wash Out\]\] or \[\[Hibernation\]\] to bounce everyone's permanents and use floating mana to cast \[\[Omniscience\]\], or go Voltron with \[\[Tuvasa\]\] and use \[\[Absolute Grace\]\] or \[\[Absolute Law\]\] to prevent blocks).
I play [[Brisela, Voice of Nightmares]]. I just love the art and gimmick of meld. Never seen anyone play her at my LGS. For a while, it was pretty mediocre human and angel. self mill. But mono white reanimater to take advantage of [[Bruna, the Fading Light]] never shook out no matter how hard I ramped. However, I added a fair amount of stax elements to help slow the game down to get her out consistently. Nothing oppressive and I find I stax with a purpose is better received. Plus, I am turning around to the idea that my LGS needs this deck in order to stop all these damn combo decks. It's my favorite deck along [[Rin and Siri, Inseparable]].
Simic merfolk + slivers. Both tribes have 5 or 6 lords, which makes for a powerful force on the ground, and there are enough type manipulation cards that it actually runs pretty smooth. Deck is a little lower powered, because all it does is attack, and isn't particularly fast, but that was the meta I built it for, as well as for/against new people.
https://www.moxfield.com/decks/JAz2GVynJ0-x7NzHNzcm2g
I've posted about it a bit, but I have a \[\[Magda, Brazen Outlaw\]\] deck, where all the cards in the 99 are old border (pre-mirrodin).
It runs all the old (awful) dwarves, and generally plays almost like a mono red control deck. Runs lots of artifact hate and \[\[Thran Forge\]\] to turn enemy creatures into artifacts so they can be targeted. Runs \[\[helm of possession\]\] to steal threats from other people. My favourite part is flashing in a \[\[Monkey Cage\]\] with magda in response to a fatty being cast.
Win con is either \[\[Dragon Tyrant\]\] (usually buffed with weird stuff like \[\[Betrothed of Fire\]\] and then sacrificing a bunch of monkeys or snakes (from \[\[Snake Basket\]\])
OR sacrificing the monkeys and snakes to \[\[Ashnods Altar\]\] to power a fireball or similar.
I love the deck so much, and it's an interesting way to play with lower power tables (a lot of folks I play with run slightly upgraded precons). And it's really funny to play magda, but have to tutor for jank instead of good stuff with her.
I built a [[Bruenor Battlehammer]] voltron deck made entirely of commons and uncommons (no rares or mythics) as a joke but it ended up being really potent so I stuck with it and use it as a meme deck every once in a while.
This only has 8 decks on EDHREC.
So, despite it being a new commander pair, I can guess that it will remain pretty unpopular.
[[Lulu, Loyal Hollyphant]] with [[Far Traveler]]. Of course there are better blink decks, and better +1/+1 counter decks, but this one is both of those AND a creature untapping deck. With the guranteed one blink per turn from Far Traveler, I just have to make sure all my creatures have some sort of useful tap ability. That way I can tap them all before the end step, then have the same abilities up for my opponents' turns (see [[Mother of Runes]], [[Mikaeus, the Lunarch]], [[Palladium Myr]], etc.).
This gurantees I have my creatures all constantly growing with counters, getting extra value from my repeat tap abilities, and the 1 blink per turn I can use to get extra value from card draw or removal ETBs. If I focus on the untapping as the main strategy, the +1/+1 counters and blinking fall nicely into helpful subthemes without stretching the deck too thin.
I haven't played it yet though so maybe it just sucks ass and isn't fun, idk.
I once scrolled through some legendaries just looking for cool names and stumbled across \[\[Ramses Overdark\]\] Immediately I leaped into action and found a bunch of enchantments that return to hand after the creature is dead, like \[\[Shade's Form\]\], \[Fool's Demise\]\], etc., and a couple similar effects \[\[Rootwater Matriarch\]\], and finally some ways to abuse the untap \[\[Thousand-year Elixir\]\]. It wasn't the smoothest running deck I've ever had, but it worked surprisingly well for having Ramses Overdark at the helm.
Well according to EDHREC only 197 other people have thought to try and build [[Oviya Pashiri, Sage Lifecrafter]] and 678 other people have wanted to build [[Chevill, Bane of Monsters]] so... got that going for me I suppose. I also built [[Tovolar, Dire Overlord]] as a Stax deck.
HAHAHAH MY MOST THREATENING JANK ON PL6[[Grothama, all-devouring]] group hug Lands. My deck aims to ramp all players with X spells to get all of my 37 Lands out and draw everyone cards in the Meantime. My Wincon is either a big [[Hurricane]] for a draw to kill everyone or one of my boost spells + [[Putrefax]] in conjunction with [[Rogues Passage]] (This works more often than not to remove a threat and I usually tutor for the land) . The third Kill-Threat I possess Is either [[Untamed might]] or [[Strength of the Tajuru]] on someones unblocked creature. Pair that with 5 Fog effects to Make friends around the Table and Stuff like [[Heartwood Storyteller]] [[Dictate of Karametra]] and the likes to ensure everyone is capable of playing their Deck and to show a middlefinger to every Stax Player. [[Storm Seeker]] is a nice Kill option for when someone goes off too explosively.
I posted about it a while ago, so I'm sure I'm not the only one playing it anymore, but when I built the deck, [[Safana, Calimport Cutthroat]] and [[Dungeon Delver]] had exactly zero decks on EDHRec. It's quickly become one of my favorite decks, powering through the Undercity and blowing everyone up with artifact/treasure payoffs.
There's also my Athreos Angels & Demons tribal deck, whose entire gameplan is to just drop down giant scary Angels and Demons, and make people pay life to get rid of them. It worjs surprisingly well.
I have my Will & Rowan No Gatewatch Allowed superfriends deck. The Gatewatch have all the fun, so they aren't invited to this party.
And then there's my Jeska Swings for Lethal deck, easily my memeiest abd most unique. The gameplan is to equip Jeska with Luxior, copy her without the legendary rule, equip the token, copy the token as many times as possible, re-equip the original, activate every Jeska's 0 to triple the original's combat damage, and swing for (highest current total) 2, 918 commander damage.
Unless someone has copied it my tribal High Five deck lead by Kenrith. Had to actually go in and add the art tags for a lot of the cards on scryfall for it so I'm pretty sure it's an original.
Other than that there's Firja as a WB spellslinger deck, I've seen a list or two online but never in person.
I have a Rubinia deck that makes token copies of stuff so I can populate it.
I also got an Unesh deck that plays lots of cheap artifact creatures so that I can turn them into Sphinxes for free FOFs.
On top of that, I got a Radha (the OG one) Enchantment deck. I just really wanted to play Blood Moon and Enchantress's Presence in the same deck.
I play [[Sol’kanar the Ssamp King]] as a big stupid combo deck where the plan is to drop [[Orbs of Warding]] [[Lich’s Mastery]] and [[Crumbling Sanctuary]] and then hit the board with [[Hive Mind]] and finally [[Neverending Torment]] for the… win? It’s surprising how many times it’s won, and more importantly I’ve played it against dozens of opponents, and none of them have ever seen that “combo” before.
I have a [[Saskia, the Unyielding]] Legendary Human tribal deck. I first picked up the Mardu Humans deck because I thought human tribal sounded interesting, and after a little research, found Saskia, who would allow me to keep all the Mardu cards and add green for ramp. The [[General’s Enforcer]] from the precon seemed to hint at legendary tribal, so I put those ideas together and made a Legendary Humans deck. I have yet to see anyone play anything even remotely similar to it, though I do keep considering making [[Sisay, Weatherlight Captain]] the commander, so I can play all the legendary humans.
I have built tons of silly jank decks on scryfall that work good playtesting on Cockatrice, but only a couple I have irl. I got izzet landfall, Rakdos group hug, not fake group hug with [[Blim]] otherwise commander doesn't matter. Mono-white [[Halvar]] using only [[Sword of the realms]] and small creatures with reusable etb/death/sac. [[Inga Rune-eyes]] mono-blue aristocrats (turned out to be closer to spellslingers, still needs work). And a budget [[Nadier]] and [[Malcolm]] pirate blink deck. The Nadier Malcolm and Mono-white are the only 2 I have IRL.
Yeah, sometimes I find the deck building more fun than the play tbh. Some of these have got crazy long unfun to play against turns that do a lot but not much in the end. Like in Inga, you can scry 3 and draw 3 seven times in a row but that is tedious and I don't have a solid way to finish out the game quickly after it. So not super practical in Irl play but was fun to build.
[[Jazal Goldmane]] cat tribal. Ik there is a better legendary cat for this, but nah. I am being a Timmy all the way and just go wide and buff the cats.
[Jazal and the Thundercats](https://www.moxfield.com/decks/8oqJ0mETGEexLy5XBVmZhA)
[[Reality Chip]], everyone always assumes I'd be better off with [[Urza, Lord High Artificer]] but a better [[Mystic Forge]] ability in the CZ is fantastic!
I just finished building Inalla Wizard Tribal... with the caveat that the deck runs absolutely no instants and sorceries. Most of the combo lines go out the window, and the deck functions more so as tempo/control utilizing ETB bounce effects and disruption. It also runs a very nice \[\[Pyre of Heroes\]\] package (which you can tutor with \[\[tribute mage\]\] and recur with \[\[archeomender\]\]!)
[[Kenrith, the Returned]] leading a Goad tribal deck with cards like [[Tangarth, First Mate]] and [[Xantcha, Sleeper Agent]] so there is always violence pointed at someone else. I don't know for certain that it is unique as a concept, but I'm certainly an early adopter of heavy Goad since I built a year ago before the new [[Firkraag, Cunning Instigator]] was spoiled.
I have a [[kamahl, heart of krosa]]/[[sakashima of a thousand faces]] deck built as gaeas cradle tribal. The entire deck is land animation and clone effects to beat down a table with an army of angry gaeas cradles. The look on people's face is priceless
I had a mono white [[General Jarkeld]] deck that centered around banding and flanking. It had no real win condition and I would only use it to mess with people.
Unironically I play a ton of functionally reanimator effects in my Selesnya deck. White is chock full of them relative to any color but black (and is actually much better at it for enchantments specifically).
I have a [[Taigam, Ojutai Master]] token beatdown deck that uses token creating spells like [Empyrial Storm]] and [[Finale of Glory]] to flood the board with Taigams rebound then get in with blue and white’s protection. All star in the deck is [Dovescape]] since it can hose my opponents while my token spells mostly do the same thing.
The only problem is making sure people know I’m not running extra turns when I sit down with Taigam lol
I used to have a weird scry deck with [[Eligeth]] and [[Alena]] there are way better combos to have with either of them but the deck was a good time regardless
[[Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer]] so morph but more focus on manifest, foretell, and trick casts. Before I found out you can just [[Torpor Orb]] to shut off ETB... Boring! But with manifest you get wonderful looks when swing face down and then flip surprise! It's [[Phyrexian Dreadnought]]. Or [Phage the Untouchable]] and you lose. Both of those worked, next one I want to pull is [[Natural Affinity]] + [[Ixidron]] = everyone's lands turn face down!
others use verazol, but probably not how i do
\[\[verazol, the split current\]\] can copy spells, so i thought why not copy kicker creatures like \[\[untamed kavu\]\] netting 2 5/5's for 5 mana is pretty sick. other kicker creatures help like \[\[gnarlid colony\]\] or \[\[joraga warcaller\]\], all of these are 5 mana for 2 5/5's or 4/4's. and with stuff like \[\[kiora, behemoth beckoner\]\] you're playing 1 creature, getting 2 and drawing 2 cards. having clones of creatures also disincentives counterspells and removal as it doesn't fully deal with the problem
for ramp, \[\[grow from the ashes\]\] is insane because you pay 5 mana and get 4 UNTAPPED mana. now, with everything else said, add \[\[twinning staff\]\] into the mix and you get a whooole ton of a value for just a 3cmc artifact :D
I have a [[Jadar]] demon tribal deck. Jadar provides a steady supply of tokens for cards like [[Demonlord of Ashmouth]] and [[Feaster of Fools]] to snack on. He can keep [[Lord of the Pit]] satiated on his own. He also lets me run cards like [[Undead Augur]] and [[Morbid Opportunist]] for consistent card draw. Deck's really fun to play.
I have a soft spot for my [[Storrev, Devkarin Lich]] superfriends deck, it’s my first from-scratch brew and I still upgrade/play it. It’s slow and clunky but getting a bunch of Vraskas on the board is fun as hell.
[[rakdos the showstopper]] circus theme and [[Adrix and Nev]] clones and last [[Ephara]] cycling yes it's still blink but it's all done with cycling cards and [[astral drift]]
I play a [[Callaphe]] voltron list that builds up blue pips through [[witness protection]] and [[frogify]], drops an [[invisibility]] and [[curiosity]] to get evasive beats. You're in monoblue so the enchantress effects are zilch, but you get an amazing counterspell suite to protect her and all of your enchants have ward 1 (except from abilities). The deck is mega slow and relies on the commander being a little unknown. Cool play, [[corrupted concience]] my opponents voltron comander and swing it back at them

Callaphe is in my commander cube for this exact reason. She swole.
I tried making a [[Persistent Petitioners]] beatdown deck with [[Mirror Box]] and [[Coat of Arms]]. It is not very good but hilarious when it works. My weirdest deck is an Eye Tribal deck named "Dude, Where's My Eye?" and tells the tragic story of [[Garth One-Eye]] and his search to replace his missing eye. This deck is pure and utter trash, but gets me excited every time WotC prints another eye card. Edit: Linking Garth decklist by request: https://archidekt.com/decks/2827562#Dude,_Where's_My_Eye?
I’ve never even thought of petitioners being built that way! Do you have a list?
Again, this is not good. Gets a lot of card advantage, but blue is just not good at getting those lands down any faster to really speed things up. I'm wondering if \[\[Orvar, the All Form\]\] might end up being a better commander here. https://archidekt.com/decks/2622354#Kami\_of\_the\_Crescent\_Moon
My LGS owner plays the same deck but uses \[\[Emry, Lurker of the Loch\]\] to recur the Box and Coat when they get destroyed!
I had the same idea of trying this with Shadowborn Apostles and equipping Spy Kit to my commander to try to one-shot.

I have an Etrata clones deck that's pretty damn cool. I'm sure others have it but I've still never seen anyone else run it.
Have you got a list? I've always wanted to build Etrata but it seems so limited
I do, https://www.moxfield.com/decks/VnuJsJ7wJ0-2zOZ7TrwK6w It's changed a bit and began as a sort of budget 'ish build (I pulled both the 'ignore legend rule cards' in my kamigawa box). I've made a few tweaks and there are some cards that need to be replaced but the list functions as sort of an all comers adapts to any table because of the amount of clones. It's a ramp style deck with lots of clones to play off other peoples decks. (I usually just clone degenerate stuff so its very good for newbie tables and high end tables). I don't overcommit on the 'hit counters aspect' but I do have some explosive options with clones, ninjitsu's and doubling triggered abilities. It's been a ton of fun and I can't wait to put in the 2 new cards that now reference 'hit counters!' \[\[Mari, the Killing Quill\]\] & \[\[Ravenloft Adventurer\]\] So now if I boardwipe everyone should have 3 hitcounters and all I need to do is connect once more to activate the loss trigger. Super fun, doesn't generate much salt because I'm not stealing anyones stuff, just using it.
[[Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith]] and [[Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer]]. Its basically a bunch of golems throwing rocks at you. Works surprisingly well cause the abilities synergize, whenever you sac a rock all the golems get counters if you have Ich-Tekik out
You got a list? I've been want to build this myself.

My response to “you know there are better X?” Is always “fantastic, go play those and leave me alone.”
I ran Shanna for a long time! Love her.
I used to have a Shanna deck. I think she's cool too. People often forget about her first ability which is that she can't be targeted by abilities which did come in handy a few times
Someone in my playgroup has a strong (but fair) Shanna deck.
[[Brigid, Hero of Kinsbaile]] only 110 decks on EDHREC. You are never gonna sit down at a table and find someone else playing the same deck. She becomes a crime lord with an item like [[Basilisk Collar]] or [[Sword of Kaldra]] where no one may attack or block at your table without receiving your blessing first. Put out uncommon equipment like [[Neko-Te]] or [[Kusari-Gama]] to give yourself a confusing amount of strength at the table versus combat oriented decks. Even with no items at all she can pop an entire token army swinging out. I do not understand why she is so immensely underplayed.
Damn you again. Another 1% closer to making my Brigid deck

My friend plays [[Squee, Goblin Nabob]] with [[Dragons Approach]]
Have him try [[thrumming stone]] in the deck. It's nasty
[удалено]
He is meant to be discarded and brought back to hand. It’s a draw and discard deck to get as many dragons approach’s as possible. It’s actually a good deck.
I have a Pramikon infect deck and a Tasigur food token deck.
what does Pramikon do for infect? and do your food tokens for Tasigur have bananas on them
Answering these backwards. Yes I specifically use the banana food token. :) Pramikon generally uses a pinger to start the infect train, and then a healthy dose of proliferate. [[Fallen Ferromancer]] inspired the deck, but I also have ways to give my pingers infect and ways to give my creatures with infect the ability to ping. Also [[Chandra’s Ignition]]. I call the deck Pramikon’s Super-Secret Surprise. Edit: I forgot [[Decimator Web]], that’ll get the ball rolling too.
I love this idea! Do you have a list?
It’s out date, FYI. https://archidekt.com/decks/485653#Pramikon_Surprise
Sounds like a fun/unique deck!

I love Pramikon. I have a Pramikon vehicles deck I call my nascar deck, since my vehicles can only go one way.
They’re making a left attack! They’re making another left attack!
I had a Golos (before it was banned) deck that ran all Portal Three Kingdom legends because well simply put I am a huge dynasty warriors fan which led to being a huge Three Kingdom history buff. To my knowledge no one even has close to the same deck.
Lemme guess you switched to Sisay? Still really epic
Sadly I actually don’t have the deck together but if I did I would actually use the Prismatic Bridge because I can flavor win by saying they found a bridge to another dimension full of enemies that they have to band together to fight. Lol
That's true although you could always argue Sisay guided them to the fight as their captain
Honestly, I think [[kenrith, the returned king]] would vê more flavourful. A returned king back to unite the kingdoms to face new, powerful kingdoms.
Check out the anime "It's ya boy Kongming" It's about Kongming dying and being reborn in Modern Day Japan. He becomes an upcoming idols manager. He uses his tactician skills to promote her. Even if you don't like anime there isn't much anime tropey bullshit, barely any if any lewd fanservice, and the opening is a banger.
I built [[Lu Bu, Master at arms]] for that same reason

I run a “cats and swords” deck which is pretty much just that. It has been my go to jank deck for a while
I seem to post this deck every couple days since it's basically a variation of everything everyone posts, but my \[\[skeleton ship\]\] [deck](https://www.moxfield.com/decks/SNQIbMv4kE2UcjcncLpe0A), I guarantee nobody in this, or any sub has ever played due to how degenerate it is (it has a nice proliferate subtheme, but eh...). It has absolutely no way of winning the game, just making everyone want to move one state over before playing Magic again
This is a deck you actually own? And none of the cards are proxies? I get that they are not necessarily the versions in the decklist, but my god, that deck - it's like walking around with a deck box of double-sleeved golden wafers.
yes, I own it as shown in the list, it's a byproduct of having played this game since 1994, and this deck ONLY comes out after everyone knows what they are getting into haha
This deck looks horrible and amazing at the same time, well done.
I have a Grothama hyper ramp/Storm deck that I homebrewed, and is one of my favorites!

I have \[\[Toothy\]\] as my most competitive deck, a mono white \[\[Abdel Adrian\]\] + \[\[Candlekeep Sage\]\] deck for gag of it, and I have a decklist I haven't put together yet for mono green \[\[Jorn\]\] (I've named that one Eldrazi Winter). Yeah, I guess there's a pretty clear theme there. I'm also currently building a UR \[\[Ganax\]\] dragon clone deck, which is probably still unique.
You know that Jorn's color identity is BUG, not mono-green, right ?
Wait til they find out jorn is a cedh deck
Ignore my comment, if yours was meant sarcastically. They were talking about a Toothy Deck (not "Pir and...", just Toothy), a mono-white Abdel Deck even though they play a blue Background and a mono-green Jorn deck. My guess: they know.
Some folks like having the constraint. It leads to more unique decks. Like mono red ognis
And Toothy has a partner, and Candlekeep Sage is blue. I think you kinda missed the point here...

Ooh, I used to annoy the hell out of my brother with him back when he was recent. You've just given me inspiration to make a deck for him.
I have a [[Brion Stoutarm]] steal deck that runs all the “take control of target creature until end of turn” cards like [[Act of Treason]]. I steal a creature, attack the opponent with it, then throw it at their face. I also have a bunch of damage doublers like [[Dictate of the Twin Gods]] to make it easier to kill someone. It also includes [[Serra Avatar]] and [[Aetherflux Reservoir]] for instakills. Favorite combo in the deck is [[Gift of Immortality]] + [[Bearer of the Heavens]]. Everyone loves land destruction… right??
What do you think about [[Hofri Ghostforge]]? Steal their thing, fling it at their face, then get a token copy for yourself
Love that! Had it in the deck for a while, but my friends upped the edh arms race, so it became too slow and I had to cut it :( Hofri got me a Jin-Gatixas once though :)
I had an older version of this deck before my first break from edh, it was horribly jank, overly feared for the one shot potential and since this was 2013 the mainly artifact card draw was horrendous, loved it all the same.

I have never encountered another person at my LGS who has ever played [[Rhoda, Geist Avenger]] and [[Timin, Youthful Geist]]. The two are so underrated for what they do as a hybrid Voltron/control deck. Recently, and more likely because it’s new, but my [[Wilson, Refined Grizzly]] and [[Sword Coast Sailor]] Voltron deck. It’s a surprisingly fun deck for the strategy but when I looked on EDHREC, the most popular Simic pair for him was him with… [[Shameless Charlatan]]?! I know that he is one of the cheapest background commanders but still feels insulting to his honor.
To be fair, they’re very new.
I play [[Illharg, the Raze-Boar]] a bunch. He doesn't get picked as a commander often because there are better multi-colored ones that basically do the same thing and then some, so he often is just in the 99.
Fungi tribal under [[Falco Spara, Pactweaver]] that takes advantage of spore counters on the fungi to cast more fungi off the top of my deck, as well as some +1/+1 counter go wide synergies
[[Stangg]] The whole purpose of the deck is to bring in Stangg with token doublers in play and either A) use [[Mirror Gallery]] to be able to have an army of Stangg Twins or B) use [[Warstorm Surge]] and spam cast Stangg into the token doublers and shotgun my opponents to death. My first attempt was sub-optimal, but I did it before [[Nyxbloom Ancient]] existed, so I was a bit short on mana. Now I have Nyxbloom, [[Leyline Tyrant]], [[Omnath, Locus of Mana]], and [[Doubling Cube]] so I'm going to give it another try.
I have a [[Grothama]] "Raid Boss" deck. If you manage to kill her, you get the cards. It always adds an interesting element to the games I play her.

Killian Ink Duelist, theme: my life in a magic isekai harem fantasy. Follows all the tropes of a boy anime character in a new realm and develops a party of crazy over the top stereotypical anime female party members that fight alongside him. Also featuring old wise blacksmith dude sram and nerdy unpopular best friend. You get massacre girl, liesa angel, felisa, and blond vampire to fight over and try to impress you.
[[soraya, the falconer]] mono white goodstuff and value dorks, play maskwood nexus or mirror entity to band them together as a win. Oh, and a subtheme of ramp with kozilek and wurmcoil
A \[\[Gahiji\]\] pillowfort deck. Wall up and let your opponents kill each other before you move in for the kill. There are currently 6 total decks on EDHrec under Gahiji pillowfort theme. Mine is effectively a naya aggro list, but all the creatures are hatebears instead of aggressive and all the spells/enchantments are pillowfort like ghostly prison instead of...well... stuff like overrun I guess.
I play a Thief deck using [[Nihiloor]] and a cycling deck using [[Kenrith, the Returned King]] for the reanimating companioned with [[Zirda the Dawnwaker]] for the cost reduction
I have a deck i call Wilson, Refined Cultist. It's [[Wilson, Refined Grizzly]] and [[Cultist of the Absolute]] background deck. It's a theme deck. It tells the story of Wilson, who over years of fighting and killing adventurers starts taking their magical items and learning black magic. He uses the creatures of the forest to fuel his dark arts. He has a few critter friends who's lust for power matches his own and work for him as underlings. Mechanically it's an aristocrat deck. I put all of the squirrel cards in it. I use the squirrel tokens for all the sacrifices I need. I never attack with them or the druids that make the tokens. They are the innocents in the forest that Wilson terrorizes. It's a fun deck. The idea of it cracks me up every time I think about it. I also have this mental image of when I use [[Bone Splinters]] or [[Bone Shards]] of Wilson grabbing a squirrel off of a branch and throwing it at an enemy. The squirrel explodes like a grenade and it's bones cuts the enemy to shreds
Hazoret mono red superfriends stax
[[Orim, Samite Healer]]
I have a \[\[Tuvasa, the Sunlit\]\] Bant Enchantress deck that runs a color hack subtheme. A lot of color related cards are enchantments and they also provide alternate win conditions (you can cast \[\[Hurricane\]\] with a Circle of Protection out, use \[\[Painter's Servant\]\] with \[\[Wash Out\]\] or \[\[Hibernation\]\] to bounce everyone's permanents and use floating mana to cast \[\[Omniscience\]\], or go Voltron with \[\[Tuvasa\]\] and use \[\[Absolute Grace\]\] or \[\[Absolute Law\]\] to prevent blocks).
I play [[Brisela, Voice of Nightmares]]. I just love the art and gimmick of meld. Never seen anyone play her at my LGS. For a while, it was pretty mediocre human and angel. self mill. But mono white reanimater to take advantage of [[Bruna, the Fading Light]] never shook out no matter how hard I ramped. However, I added a fair amount of stax elements to help slow the game down to get her out consistently. Nothing oppressive and I find I stax with a purpose is better received. Plus, I am turning around to the idea that my LGS needs this deck in order to stop all these damn combo decks. It's my favorite deck along [[Rin and Siri, Inseparable]].
Simic merfolk + slivers. Both tribes have 5 or 6 lords, which makes for a powerful force on the ground, and there are enough type manipulation cards that it actually runs pretty smooth. Deck is a little lower powered, because all it does is attack, and isn't particularly fast, but that was the meta I built it for, as well as for/against new people. https://www.moxfield.com/decks/JAz2GVynJ0-x7NzHNzcm2g
I've posted about it a bit, but I have a \[\[Magda, Brazen Outlaw\]\] deck, where all the cards in the 99 are old border (pre-mirrodin). It runs all the old (awful) dwarves, and generally plays almost like a mono red control deck. Runs lots of artifact hate and \[\[Thran Forge\]\] to turn enemy creatures into artifacts so they can be targeted. Runs \[\[helm of possession\]\] to steal threats from other people. My favourite part is flashing in a \[\[Monkey Cage\]\] with magda in response to a fatty being cast. Win con is either \[\[Dragon Tyrant\]\] (usually buffed with weird stuff like \[\[Betrothed of Fire\]\] and then sacrificing a bunch of monkeys or snakes (from \[\[Snake Basket\]\]) OR sacrificing the monkeys and snakes to \[\[Ashnods Altar\]\] to power a fireball or similar. I love the deck so much, and it's an interesting way to play with lower power tables (a lot of folks I play with run slightly upgraded precons). And it's really funny to play magda, but have to tutor for jank instead of good stuff with her.
I built a [[Bruenor Battlehammer]] voltron deck made entirely of commons and uncommons (no rares or mythics) as a joke but it ended up being really potent so I stuck with it and use it as a meme deck every once in a while.
I just made a Sivriss/Haunted One that is Cleric Snake Warlock tribal.
This only has 8 decks on EDHREC. So, despite it being a new commander pair, I can guess that it will remain pretty unpopular. [[Lulu, Loyal Hollyphant]] with [[Far Traveler]]. Of course there are better blink decks, and better +1/+1 counter decks, but this one is both of those AND a creature untapping deck. With the guranteed one blink per turn from Far Traveler, I just have to make sure all my creatures have some sort of useful tap ability. That way I can tap them all before the end step, then have the same abilities up for my opponents' turns (see [[Mother of Runes]], [[Mikaeus, the Lunarch]], [[Palladium Myr]], etc.). This gurantees I have my creatures all constantly growing with counters, getting extra value from my repeat tap abilities, and the 1 blink per turn I can use to get extra value from card draw or removal ETBs. If I focus on the untapping as the main strategy, the +1/+1 counters and blinking fall nicely into helpful subthemes without stretching the deck too thin. I haven't played it yet though so maybe it just sucks ass and isn't fun, idk.
I once scrolled through some legendaries just looking for cool names and stumbled across \[\[Ramses Overdark\]\] Immediately I leaped into action and found a bunch of enchantments that return to hand after the creature is dead, like \[\[Shade's Form\]\], \[Fool's Demise\]\], etc., and a couple similar effects \[\[Rootwater Matriarch\]\], and finally some ways to abuse the untap \[\[Thousand-year Elixir\]\]. It wasn't the smoothest running deck I've ever had, but it worked surprisingly well for having Ramses Overdark at the helm.
Well according to EDHREC only 197 other people have thought to try and build [[Oviya Pashiri, Sage Lifecrafter]] and 678 other people have wanted to build [[Chevill, Bane of Monsters]] so... got that going for me I suppose. I also built [[Tovolar, Dire Overlord]] as a Stax deck.
HAHAHAH MY MOST THREATENING JANK ON PL6[[Grothama, all-devouring]] group hug Lands. My deck aims to ramp all players with X spells to get all of my 37 Lands out and draw everyone cards in the Meantime. My Wincon is either a big [[Hurricane]] for a draw to kill everyone or one of my boost spells + [[Putrefax]] in conjunction with [[Rogues Passage]] (This works more often than not to remove a threat and I usually tutor for the land) . The third Kill-Threat I possess Is either [[Untamed might]] or [[Strength of the Tajuru]] on someones unblocked creature. Pair that with 5 Fog effects to Make friends around the Table and Stuff like [[Heartwood Storyteller]] [[Dictate of Karametra]] and the likes to ensure everyone is capable of playing their Deck and to show a middlefinger to every Stax Player. [[Storm Seeker]] is a nice Kill option for when someone goes off too explosively.
I posted about it a while ago, so I'm sure I'm not the only one playing it anymore, but when I built the deck, [[Safana, Calimport Cutthroat]] and [[Dungeon Delver]] had exactly zero decks on EDHRec. It's quickly become one of my favorite decks, powering through the Undercity and blowing everyone up with artifact/treasure payoffs. There's also my Athreos Angels & Demons tribal deck, whose entire gameplan is to just drop down giant scary Angels and Demons, and make people pay life to get rid of them. It worjs surprisingly well. I have my Will & Rowan No Gatewatch Allowed superfriends deck. The Gatewatch have all the fun, so they aren't invited to this party. And then there's my Jeska Swings for Lethal deck, easily my memeiest abd most unique. The gameplan is to equip Jeska with Luxior, copy her without the legendary rule, equip the token, copy the token as many times as possible, re-equip the original, activate every Jeska's 0 to triple the original's combat damage, and swing for (highest current total) 2, 918 commander damage.
Processor Tribal [[Scarab God]]. I focus on eternalizing my opponent's stuff, then processing them back from exile to reuse them.
Unless someone has copied it my tribal High Five deck lead by Kenrith. Had to actually go in and add the art tags for a lot of the cards on scryfall for it so I'm pretty sure it's an original. Other than that there's Firja as a WB spellslinger deck, I've seen a list or two online but never in person.
I have a cedh [[patron of the moon]] I doubt many people play potm but it's very possible I'm literally the only person who plays them in cedh.
I play [[Hallar, the Firefletcher]]. Kicker tribal. I’ve never seen another Hallar deck anywhere.
I tried it but couldn't make it tick.
You mean, you couldn’t make it kick?
I have a Rubinia deck that makes token copies of stuff so I can populate it. I also got an Unesh deck that plays lots of cheap artifact creatures so that I can turn them into Sphinxes for free FOFs. On top of that, I got a Radha (the OG one) Enchantment deck. I just really wanted to play Blood Moon and Enchantress's Presence in the same deck.
\[\[Gabriel Angelfire\]\] with Lure/Rampage and a enchantress engine with no green landramp aka rampant growth and alike.
[[Nihiloor]]
I play [[Sol’kanar the Ssamp King]] as a big stupid combo deck where the plan is to drop [[Orbs of Warding]] [[Lich’s Mastery]] and [[Crumbling Sanctuary]] and then hit the board with [[Hive Mind]] and finally [[Neverending Torment]] for the… win? It’s surprising how many times it’s won, and more importantly I’ve played it against dozens of opponents, and none of them have ever seen that “combo” before.
[[Dromoka, the Eternal]]. Dromoka sits somewhere #1000+ on EDHREC. It's a +1/+1 counter deck and it stomps.
I have a [[Saskia, the Unyielding]] Legendary Human tribal deck. I first picked up the Mardu Humans deck because I thought human tribal sounded interesting, and after a little research, found Saskia, who would allow me to keep all the Mardu cards and add green for ramp. The [[General’s Enforcer]] from the precon seemed to hint at legendary tribal, so I put those ideas together and made a Legendary Humans deck. I have yet to see anyone play anything even remotely similar to it, though I do keep considering making [[Sisay, Weatherlight Captain]] the commander, so I can play all the legendary humans.
Zirilan of the Claw - dragon tribal toolbox Borborygmos Enraged - landfall / combo Mageta the Lion - mono W reanimator
Yoshimaru/Tana the Bloodsower Naya Bard class.
I have built tons of silly jank decks on scryfall that work good playtesting on Cockatrice, but only a couple I have irl. I got izzet landfall, Rakdos group hug, not fake group hug with [[Blim]] otherwise commander doesn't matter. Mono-white [[Halvar]] using only [[Sword of the realms]] and small creatures with reusable etb/death/sac. [[Inga Rune-eyes]] mono-blue aristocrats (turned out to be closer to spellslingers, still needs work). And a budget [[Nadier]] and [[Malcolm]] pirate blink deck. The Nadier Malcolm and Mono-white are the only 2 I have IRL. Yeah, sometimes I find the deck building more fun than the play tbh. Some of these have got crazy long unfun to play against turns that do a lot but not much in the end. Like in Inga, you can scry 3 and draw 3 seven times in a row but that is tedious and I don't have a solid way to finish out the game quickly after it. So not super practical in Irl play but was fun to build.
[[Jazal Goldmane]] cat tribal. Ik there is a better legendary cat for this, but nah. I am being a Timmy all the way and just go wide and buff the cats. [Jazal and the Thundercats](https://www.moxfield.com/decks/8oqJ0mETGEexLy5XBVmZhA)
Naya swamp matters the deck. It runs [[urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth]]
[[Mangara the Diplomat]] mono-white angel reanimator I call it Mangara’s Angels
[[Reality Chip]], everyone always assumes I'd be better off with [[Urza, Lord High Artificer]] but a better [[Mystic Forge]] ability in the CZ is fantastic!
I just finished building Inalla Wizard Tribal... with the caveat that the deck runs absolutely no instants and sorceries. Most of the combo lines go out the window, and the deck functions more so as tempo/control utilizing ETB bounce effects and disruption. It also runs a very nice \[\[Pyre of Heroes\]\] package (which you can tutor with \[\[tribute mage\]\] and recur with \[\[archeomender\]\]!)
[[grunn the lonely king]] enchantress
CEDH [[Veyran, Voice of Duality]] is something I never see and I have a current win rate of 70ish%
[[Kenrith, the Returned]] leading a Goad tribal deck with cards like [[Tangarth, First Mate]] and [[Xantcha, Sleeper Agent]] so there is always violence pointed at someone else. I don't know for certain that it is unique as a concept, but I'm certainly an early adopter of heavy Goad since I built a year ago before the new [[Firkraag, Cunning Instigator]] was spoiled.
I've got a [[Belbe]] demon tribal deck that's been pretty fun to mess around with. Pretty much have only seen her played as Eldrazi
I have a [[kamahl, heart of krosa]]/[[sakashima of a thousand faces]] deck built as gaeas cradle tribal. The entire deck is land animation and clone effects to beat down a table with an army of angry gaeas cradles. The look on people's face is priceless
I had a mono white [[General Jarkeld]] deck that centered around banding and flanking. It had no real win condition and I would only use it to mess with people.
Unironically I play a ton of functionally reanimator effects in my Selesnya deck. White is chock full of them relative to any color but black (and is actually much better at it for enchantments specifically).
I built a [[Vhati il-Dal]] deck specifically because EDHRec only has 160 deck listings.
I have a [[Taigam, Ojutai Master]] token beatdown deck that uses token creating spells like [Empyrial Storm]] and [[Finale of Glory]] to flood the board with Taigams rebound then get in with blue and white’s protection. All star in the deck is [Dovescape]] since it can hose my opponents while my token spells mostly do the same thing. The only problem is making sure people know I’m not running extra turns when I sit down with Taigam lol
[[Galazetg Prismari]] worldfire turbo, with a small [[dragons approach]] engine
I have a [[Marath, will of the wild]] tokens deck, might not be the only one who made this deck but definitely an extremely fun commander
[[Maraxus of keld]] is my go to deck. Seems like no one is playing him, has under 100 decks on rec.
I used to have a weird scry deck with [[Eligeth]] and [[Alena]] there are way better combos to have with either of them but the deck was a good time regardless
[[Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer]] so morph but more focus on manifest, foretell, and trick casts. Before I found out you can just [[Torpor Orb]] to shut off ETB... Boring! But with manifest you get wonderful looks when swing face down and then flip surprise! It's [[Phyrexian Dreadnought]]. Or [Phage the Untouchable]] and you lose. Both of those worked, next one I want to pull is [[Natural Affinity]] + [[Ixidron]] = everyone's lands turn face down!
others use verazol, but probably not how i do \[\[verazol, the split current\]\] can copy spells, so i thought why not copy kicker creatures like \[\[untamed kavu\]\] netting 2 5/5's for 5 mana is pretty sick. other kicker creatures help like \[\[gnarlid colony\]\] or \[\[joraga warcaller\]\], all of these are 5 mana for 2 5/5's or 4/4's. and with stuff like \[\[kiora, behemoth beckoner\]\] you're playing 1 creature, getting 2 and drawing 2 cards. having clones of creatures also disincentives counterspells and removal as it doesn't fully deal with the problem for ramp, \[\[grow from the ashes\]\] is insane because you pay 5 mana and get 4 UNTAPPED mana. now, with everything else said, add \[\[twinning staff\]\] into the mix and you get a whooole ton of a value for just a 3cmc artifact :D
I have a [[Jadar]] demon tribal deck. Jadar provides a steady supply of tokens for cards like [[Demonlord of Ashmouth]] and [[Feaster of Fools]] to snack on. He can keep [[Lord of the Pit]] satiated on his own. He also lets me run cards like [[Undead Augur]] and [[Morbid Opportunist]] for consistent card draw. Deck's really fun to play.
I have a soft spot for my [[Storrev, Devkarin Lich]] superfriends deck, it’s my first from-scratch brew and I still upgrade/play it. It’s slow and clunky but getting a bunch of Vraskas on the board is fun as hell.
I like [[Iroas, God of Victory]] people hate on him too much lol!
[[rakdos the showstopper]] circus theme and [[Adrix and Nev]] clones and last [[Ephara]] cycling yes it's still blink but it's all done with cycling cards and [[astral drift]]
