While I would consider these three of the best possible decks, the nature 100 card singleton means that there are a ton of options in the format, and it’s hard to actually identify what the best possible deck could be. From there the Commanders you control might just be able to win the game, but at the very least you can sacrifice them to 《Tevesh Szat》 to draw 3 extra cards a turn. 《Tevesh Szat》 can actually surprisingly quickly, and it’s also important to know that if he had exactly 10 loyalty when you used the ultimate, you can move him into your Command Zone before the ability resolves, therefore returning himself to play with his own ability. Instead of pressuring our opponents’ life totals we instead can go up a lot of cards while also threatening 《Tevesh Szat》‘s ultimate ability. Like 《Najeela》, I think this deck can sort of play a protect the queen game around its Commanders. Even if your Commander isn’t a combo piece, just something simple like 《Kraum, Ludevic’s Opus》 on turn 1 or 2 can really pull you ahead in game. When so many of the decks can be built so similarly, you’re doing yourself a huge disservice by not playing a Commander that can be abused with 《Jeweled Lotus》. 《Jeweled Lotus》 has really made a huge shift in the types of Commanders we’ve been seeing since Commander Legends. These 《Wheel of Fortune》 effects were already being played frequently in decks like these because they let you capitalize on your excessive amount of mana acceleration, while also potentially letting you come back in a long that you’ve fallen behind in. On top of that 《Hullbreacher》 gives you combo draws with various 《Wheel of Fortune》 effects to essentially make the game unloseable. 《Hullbreacher》 and 《Opposition Agent》 are both offering a non-symmetrical prison element with potential “gotcha” moments to really let yourself pull ahead. Most notably, 《Jeweled Lotus》, 《Hullbreacher》, and 《Opposition Agent》 have made their mark on the format already. You’ll also notice a few new Commander Legends cards making the cut. It also just has high upside if you can manage to play it early in the game, as a lot of early turns in Commander involve developing mana accelerants, and it creates a lose-lose situation for the opponents that haven’t had a chance to deploy them yet. A card like 《Rhystic Study》 certainly falls under the category of “punisher mechanic” where it gives your opponents options on how they want to play around it, but instead of giving these options to only one opponent you’re giving them to three opponents.Įven in a game that has been slowed down by various prison elements, where everyone can afford to pay for 《Rhystic Study》 on most turns, eventually there will come a turn where someone tries to win the game and other players will stop them, and on that turn the player with 《Rhystic Study》 will often find themselves drawing a good amount of cards. Given you have 3 opponents all starting with 40 life, it’s naturally the best option to assemble a combination of cards that allow you to win the game regardless of life totals.Īt first I was skeptical of some cards always making the cut based on the color identity of your Commander, but after playing some games I’ve come to agree with a lot of them. Now that I’m off the PT I’ve been glad to have gotten into it, and I even get to play with my former roommates and other friends over webcam on SpellTable.įor the most part the best decks in Commander are exclusively combo decks. While the stakes of the event aren’t very high, it’s still been fun to divert my attention to something completely different in Magic.įor a while now I’ve seen some of the ins and outs of competitive Commander as two of my former roommates used to play a lot against each other, and it’s always been something I had considered getting into but didn’t have the time to prioritize over PT formats. The last couple of months I’ve been playing competitive Commander over webcam for a team Commander league hosted by Nexus Super League. 《Thrasios, Triton Hero》&《Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools》.《Tymna the Weaver》&《Kraum, Ludevic’s Opus》.
