Kaalia has the advantage of they keep printing support for her since like every set is gonna have a dragon, demon, and/or angel.

Yeah there are plenty of other vamp Commander's but I don't think I'd say that they have pros that are equivalent to what Edgar brings to the table.

Ever since 2016, I've loved Yidris as an option. It's beautiful how open-ended he is as a commander, to the point that I've built him as Chaos, Larceny, and with the recent support for the mechanic, built to lean more into cascade. He'll probably always be my favorite commander

Ur Dragon aged well simply because of new dragons making the dragon tribal theme that much more scary: Terror of the Peaks playing as a second Sourge of Valkas Goldspan Dragon and Old Gnawbone providing ramp Iymrith, Desert Doom playing as a second Dragonlord Ojutai and with the second D&D set, more dragons are going to help this deck.

i just got around to building an Edgar Markov commander, and after 1 game I totally love it! so much fun!

I'm glad to see me OG commander, The Raidmother, making an appearance here. Gotta love some Gruul Spellslinging!

Nekusar was the first commander deck I built and I still run him to this day, one of my favorites and one of my best.

Been loving my Prossh since 2013 and with a few tweaks it's still strong even in a fast 1v1 format such as Centurion Commander. In fact, I placed 6th over 32 players at a National qualifier Lv 1 last Sunday where most of the meta was Shorikai, Grist, Tymna/Thrasios and its variants, Geist and crazily strong control decks. Most important part: it's kind of a glass cannon, but also superfun to play every single time.

Kaalia is OG- it’s kind of a beginner cEDH build now/ just got to protect her and swing her. Still it’s a great card and fun build

do a list of commanders that aged like milk

I really like prossh been playing it for 8 years was also my first commander deck, I still like it because it doesn’t have the reputation of a korvold even though it is also really powerful

That secret lair Ur-dragon is taking off in price quite nicely.

Zur will probably forever be the only Cedh deck I build. Not for lack of other good options, but because I don’t have the money to build another one lol.

Tasigur, Prossh and Nekusar are all commander decks I have built and will never get rid of. Love them for their uniqueness and/or flexibility.

Really like Tasigur. Very good value and can be built in many ways like landfall, control, graveyard etc

Not sure if the other Vampire stacks up as well as Edgar...

started my 5 color dragon deck in like 2011 with scion of the ur dragon and it was rough to build because of lack of good dragon support, swapped to ur dragon when that deck came out and now with all the support the deck has a critical mass point it can reach quickly and just go nuts. Been running Kaalia since she came out as well and prossh a little bit after he came out. all of these decks are still together being used still, 3 of my fav decks.

I would have to say that The first Sliver is, in my opinion, much better than The Sliver Overlord. It's been my experience that anytime you come to the table with Slivers, you are the primary target. While Overlord does give you access to your key slivers, it can rake time and you are limited in your mana output. The First Sliver allows you to completely overwhelm the board in as little as 1 turn before an opponent can get thru there turns and find a response.

After playing him for years i gotta say Chainer dementia master is an hidden gem. He truly feels like the one true necromancer commander and i had a lot of fun with him

Tasigur was the first cEDH Commander I built around 2018, became my favorite instantly, first time I enjoyed playing blue in my life. Since then, Sultai has become one of my favorite 3-color combinations, been tweaking that deck as my prime commander ever since.

Shoutout to my older brother who got me the ur dragon commander precon to get me into commander

Meren was the first Commander Deck I build 6 years ago. I have made some changes over the past years, but not many. But I can still whip her out from time to time and I mostly win with her :) But I played her so much back in the day, that I rarely do it :D

I used to have a Zur rebels deck. It used Zur to tutor up cards like Arcane Adaptation and Training Grounds so that my rebels could tutor up any creatures with useful ETB effects for next to no cost. I ended up dismantling the deck because it was too strong for my playgroup. As we've started getting spoilers for Baldur's Gate, I've been considering building a new Zur deck around background enchantments.

I just started playing mtg my first deck is a merin commander deck I always have a blast playing it

Gotta shout out the goat mama Zedruu. While never strong power level wise, still plays unlike any other commander and is very fun to build around.

I'm happy atraxa was number 1. Little sad that locust god wasnt on the list, but eh.

I have a Kaalia deck, always changing angels, dragons and demons around. One of the best commander options out there, if you like stuff like master of cruelties and other nasty beaters.

My Nekusar, Sliver Overlord and Animar decks are my absolute favorites. They can built to be fun and janky or fun with big power swings.

Really love me some Nekusar. Play something like Breathstealer's Crypt if you don't want your opponents to keep any creatures while drawing a bunch

I've always made dragon tribal with scion of the ur-dragon instead. I've always found it the superior option. Its cheaper, it tutors and opens the option to reanimate and heavily discount the cost of those expensive dragons.

Kresh has always been my favorite jund commander. He's so simple

You know who is going to age like fine wine......Kess.

I've built 4 of the 10, I have 1 of those still together and I'm planning on rebuilding a 2nd Sliver Overlord (still have) Brago Nekusar (planning to rebuild) Atraxa

Ur dragon only gets better by the years tbh, and with the dnd set coming soon I'm sure there'll be new dragons that will make it even better

"You are not gonna play many creature if you play the first sliver (and you are right, you were talking about competitive) Me, an intellectual, playing 42 slivers + commander

Ghaves my old time fave :P

One major problem with Edgar is that Eminence is so effectively broken that I've had players flat out refuse to play against it. Either I'm asked to play a different deck, or they leave the table. My regular pod banned all the Eminence commanders. Even the designers at WotC have admitted most of the Eminence commanders were a mistake with Edgar being the biggest of all. Funny enough, plenty of the most popular Commanders are considered design mistakes at WotC like Edgar, Yuriko, and Prosper.

I use Riku as a RG spellslinger commander I have very few blue sources in the deck just in case I want to cast him because I feel he's still better than Wort being cheaper and not needing tokens to copy stuff

I personally think Arcum is still a good commander, as the flexibility and versatility in how you can build him is very nice.

My #1 is the Nyx pantheon. Every god of nyx is insanely playable (except Pharika).

I builded a Kaalia the vast deck and Jared deck and Atraxa. If i play with those 3, Atraxa overpower everyone. If you think Atraxa is dead, she comes in to play. Put a counter on it, pro it at the end. It's a 6/6. Incredible, i played maybe 10 times agains Avancy, i only lost 2 times. Put some copy creatures, counterspells. And youre opponent can't do anything anymore. And i don't play Infect with Atraxa. If i do, my opponent has no change.

I think Zur might be the first commander I fell in love with. You can take it in endless directions. Superfriends, stax, cycling, rebels, cEDH, Voltron etc. I love it. Close second for me is kess for similar reasons. I instantly loved the scarab god but I've been struggling to build a deck I'm happy with

I'd gladly challenge you on the best colorless commander. I'd say that crown goes to karn. He is a combo machine but you can also just make super fun decks with him that just beat cheeks.

Brago is still real good but his real competition is probably Yorion who can also blink more than 1 permanent at a time. Also Yorion can loop but is less consistent that Brago's combat damage trigger

Edgar Markov probably will be the top tier Vampire commander for eternity. I disagree that the other Vampire options are even close to Edgars level. Evelyn and Strefan are ok, but there isnt a ton of support for blood tokens, and Evelyn wants vampires to work but i dont know if id call her a true tribal commander. Xenagos god of revels in my opinion has aged well and will always be a good commander

I think Animar aged pretty well too! Maybe too well. 🤪

(sees Nekusar) (Thinks of half-built xyris deck) (wants to finish the deck)

3 I think you are mistaken on. 1. Edgar is easily the most powerful Vampire, not even debatable 2. Scion of the Ur-Dragon is superior to Ur-Dragon, cheaper, toolbox commander, really shines with reanimation 3, Kozilek, Butcher of Truth vs Kozilek, the Great Distortion. I have had Kozi as a Commander for years. Annihilate is more powerful then the counter ability. The counter ability is dependent on you having the correct casting cost in hand. Annihilate always hits. Plus the card draw of OG Kozi is ALWAYS on line. Many times have I cart a Kozi with 5 cards in hand or more. Great Distortion nuts 1 or 2 cards. OG nets 4 each time.

kaalia will always be my fav commander she does attract some agro from the rest of the players XD

A bit sad Narset wasn't here :(

Sliver Overlord + Mana Echoes + ??? = Profit!

What about Thrasios?

YO PROSSH LET'S GO

no animar?

You could say she's the completed package...

I feel that yorion right now is better than Brago in mass blinkin

I'd like more 4 colour commanders. I know it's a weird design space but there being less then 3 options (outside of partners) is wack

Thank you for confirming Ur-Dragon is better than Tiamat

I’ll build a Zur deck as soon as necropotence gets banned lmaoo

archades

Ur dragon scion and tiamat are better if your trying to combo with dragons.

Marath Will of the Wild gets snubbed again. That's ok, I'll just continue to sneak under the radar with the best commander ever. 😉

A mini toe?? Smh

Prossh is still the best fight me 😤

Maybe a hot take, but i don't understand how the ur dragon aged well when scion is just better than it in every measurable way
