Which commanders do you think are the 10 most powerful Commanders in the set? Are you planning on building any? What are the hot pieces of tech that we missed?

@Alino- Жыл бұрын

I've been looking into a few commanders. Lord of the Nazgul is pretty wacky. I built it as wraith 'tribal' (really just the wraiths from the new set, minus the 6 mana witch king.) Didn't think the Nazgul would be all that good but getting four or five +1/+1 counters on a board of dudes who turn into base 9/9s is great. Still debating on if I'll commit to this or not. Sauron, the Dark Lord seems like easily the best of the Saurons we got. I built him as aristocrats, and he's solid. Can consistently get 4 to 6 bodies a turn cycle that you're instantly saccing. I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure this guy makes more tokens than any other Aristocrat commander we've gotten. But that said, I have looked at a wheeling spellslinger deck, because I did see people building that. It seems... good? Not a big fan on it though since it utilizes the thoracle combos for winning. I'd rather my commander play a role in my victory. Saruman is someone I'm debating on building - the esper theft one. Can't decide if it's any good. I feel like he grows in power the higher the power of your group is, because realistically just freecasting your opponents' tutors will be great for getting up your combo. Not to mention things like card draw or removal or ramp. Frodo, Sauron's Bane is also someone I'm debating on building. Him w/ Lurrus as a companion seems good for a hatebear/stax deck. After locking your opponents out, you can just take turns poking them. And Lurrus ensures you can get recur any hate pieces that go to gy. Other than those four - I also built Shelob, the golgari one. It's... interesting. Definitely fun, but it's spiders so even if I bend over backwards to build it, it'll only ever be as good as the tribe. Though I have been debating on an alternative build where instead of spiders I could just run a bunch of voltron and fight pieces and just have Shelob devouring people. Notably, you can have Shelob devouring your own guys to set up infinites. Eat Devoted Druid with Shelob and suddenly you get an infinite mana producing food.

I believe Sauron, Lidless Eye is very powerful. To be able to pump his ability dealing damage is exactly what red wants to do and there's plenty of support in rakdos to dump mana into it. For 5 cmc, he isn't a quick commander, but, you have all the time you need to setup your infinite mana before he comes out and drains the table.

Cool blink synergy with Aurelia: If you blink her after she gets her attack trigger, she can attack in the second combat and get yet another trigger! And you can do that as many times as you want.

A couple of great cards for Lord of the Nazgul that weren't mentioned along the lines of Maskwood Nexus are Conspiracy, Arcane Adaptation, and most importantly, Standardize which will trigger the Lord when you cast it. Massacre is another one in the free spell line. I personally think the most robust, fair way to build this deck is with Talrand like creatures paired with Maskwood Nexus type effects.

Interesting note on Gandalf, you just have to control the permanent with the trigger. If an opponent's legendary or artifact entering or leaving the battlefield triggers your stuff, that also triggers twice. Soul Sister or blood artist triggering twice on your opponent's commander entering or such. A little awkward to build around but still.

Blade of selves for the Lord of the Nazgul deck. You're running 9 Nazgul, if you have just one on the battlefield giving it myriad will tempt you twice and give the original, both token copies, your flying commander, and any other wraith or changeling you have 6 +1/+1 counters. Bonus points for having the Argonath/Ozolith to capture at minimum 12 +1/+1 counters every time you swing with the myriad nazgul and then putting them on your commander next turn, making it a 22/21 with flying. Taurean Mauler is pretty good with Saruman the White Hand, changeling means it's an army for your amass triggers and it gets a +1/+1 counter for every spell your opponents cast as well.

@ingolf82 Жыл бұрын

Saurman the white hand = fling tribal. So you build it like a storm deck, make your orc army massive, cast a fling spell, throw it in the face of your opponent, then make 2 copies of fling and target the other 2 and kill everyone. I hate that I like so many of these commanders! Because wasn't gonna buy any of the cards, because reasons. But now I am considering it, maybe make 2 evil commanders and 2 good commanders and have them battle it out in 2 headed giant? Sounds very fun to me.

I've been running 5C Sagas for months with Go-Shintai at the helm. I proxied up Tom Bombadil when he was spoiled and the deck has been much better

I realize this is not not obvious but I just love the intro to the Command Zone videos. Too bad there's no Sol Ring emoji

I think a WUBRG enchantment deck should definitely include the Zurs and have had a mention.

Another incredible strength of Aragorn is just by putting him on the table you can learn exactly what people at your LGS you don’t want to play with. That’s true power we haven’t seen yet.

@Dragon_Fyre Жыл бұрын

There are plenty of cards that will let you know who at your LGS you don’t want to play with, just for different reasons… … like a Dockside Extortionist where you create X treasures and get to listen to a sermon on why it should be banned for X minutes.

Gonna be building Sauron. I love the BBEG bit and I want the villain to win once in a while. Might sprinkle in a Maskwood Nexus.

I know its not technically Commander, but in Historic Brawl on Arena the 4 color Aragorn is absolutely broken and needs to be put in the hell queue

Feeling validated for making Sauron aristocrats, I see next to no builds for him that way so it’s nice to know I’m going the right route lol

I think frodo, sauron's bane with ring tempting will be a sort of unique and powerful voltron? Kind of? It seems fast and dirty.

I dont think modular will work with Gandalf the way you want. Module takes the +1/+1 counters on the modular creature to put them on another, but the 2nd time this goes to resolve it wont have any counters on it anymore? Judge.....?

only major complaint I have with the set is that Glorfindel is not a mythic rare powerhouse. The dude is one of the most powerful beings active on middle earth at the time of LotR being comparable to the other strongest only really falling behind Sauron, Gandalf the White, and Tom Bombadil. Amusingly he is almost certianly stronger than any other of the Maia active currently as he killed a Balrog in the distant past and after getting resurrected/reincarnated is significantly stronger now.

Wait - does gandalf allow a cards own etbs to trigger twice, or does it double triggers of cards that have "when x enters the battlefield than y" I'm confused.

The arcane bombardment reading was wrong, it’s exile a instant or sorcery at random from your graveyard not the one that you cast. Small but important detail! Great izzet cards regardless!
