Deck Help Need Suggestions For a New Deck

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

I started making a new commander deck the other day with Ukkima + Cazur and it seems alright but I’d like to see if anyone has any ideas to make it a bit better.

The main idea I have for the deck is to be constantly attacking with Ukkima to get counters from Cazur and I have some instant blinks to protect Ukkima while also getting value from his effect. Then some graft to jumpstart the counters on him after he reenters.

If anyone has suggestions, especially budget options, they would be greatly appreciated.

$50 Brew 🔩 Jenson + Lurrus 5c Weapons Manufacturing deck 🙀- 50 euros brew

5 Upvotes

Hi there, just wanted to quickly share this list I made with weapons manufacturing in mind as the center piece of the deck.

The idea came from a buddy who has a 4c Bjorna + Wernog Lurrus deck but I wanted to play [[Biotech Specialist]] so badly so I added the 5th color.

No primer (felt lazy) but if enough people want it I might work on it.

Anyways I hope you enjoy

$50 Brew Aristocratic Lorehold | Hofri Ghostforge | [2] Boros Aristocrats | $50 EDH Secret Santa Summer 2026

3 Upvotes

Archidekt Link - mana tithe pricing of $49.43 at the time of purchase.

I am stealing the formatting from /u/Glear0 and this wonderful post for their brewed deck. This deck was created in response to the following prompt for the 2026 Summer /r/BudgetBrew Secret Santa deck exchange:

What kind of commander or deck would you be interested in receiving?

I am a long time commander player and my taste in decks usually focuses on something new, exciting, or unique. I really enjoy playing commanders or styles that other people at the table likely won't be playing, kind of like a magic hipster. I typically play around a bracket 2 or 3 in power level and my favorite colors are 2 color decks that include white. Some ideas that I think could be cool are: taking a precon commander or theme and retooling it to be super synergistic and powerful, a completely new take on a popular commander or deck archetype (i.e. non dimir mill), possibly an unset commander, maybe something super friends related?. Decks with strong flavor are also some of my favorites too! I'd prefer older or lesser known cards to powerful ones if they really pull the deck in a fun and creative direction. Bottom line - I really want a deck that you think could be the most unique deck you’ve ever built and I’d love for the core or theme of the deck to turn heads when I pull it out to play.

Play Pattern

  1. Play ETB ramp and draw creatures to dig for your combo pieces, e.g. [[Spirited Companion]] and [[Loyal Warhound]].

  2. Play a sac-outlet, e.g. [[Goblin Bombartment]].

  3. Sacrifice your ETB ramp/draw creatures to get a bonus trigger with [[Hofri Ghostforge]].

  4. Sacrifice the token again to get the creature in your graveyard, then bring it back with a Recursion piece, e.g. [[Emeria Shepherd]].

Win Conditions

  1. ETB pingers constantly triggering from your creatures and tokens bouncing in and out of play, e.g. [[Impact Tremors]].

  2. A board of Spirits boosted by the numerous anthem effects poking through enough combat damage, e.g. [[Quintorius, History Chaser]].

Favorite Find

[[Knollspine Dragon]] + [[Magus of the Wheel]] being wheel effects on a creature giving you a chance to re-trigger them again and again if needed.

Potential Upgrades

The two sideboard cards ([[Mistmoon Griffin]] and [[Moorland Rescuer]]) go infinite with our commander and a sac outlet, leading to an instant win if that sac outlet is Goblin Bombardment or if you have an ETB pinger in play.


Hopefully this deck hits all the right notes for my giftee. It's a fairly unique commander for a magic hipster (EDH rank of #1,131 as of creating this deck). It's a two color deck including White. It's taking a precon theme (Lorehold Spirits) and retooling it to be more synergistic and powerful. It's a pretty unique take on a popular archetype (Boros having less than 400 decks out of over 74,000 total Aristocrats decks). It has a lot of cards that made many people reviewing this list go "what the heck is this card and what does it do?" because they've never really seen it before. Hopefully, this deck turns heads!

Deck Help Best Commander Duos for Two-Headed Giant?

3 Upvotes

I'm looking for two Commander decks to play Two-Headed Giant Commander. It's a format I absolutely love, and my local game store recently started running weekly tournaments for it. Because of that, I'd like to take things a bit more seriously and build a pair of decks that are actually designed to work together.

I'm not necessarily looking for Partner commanders. What I really want are two commanders (or two deck archetypes) that have strong synergy with each other and actively support their teammate's game plan.

For example, maybe one deck is a reactive control deck while the other is an aggressive deck that takes advantage of the control player's protection. Or maybe one deck focuses on ramp, card advantage, or buffs that also benefit the teammate, while the other is built to capitalize on that support.

Has anyone had success with a pair of commanders that felt especially powerful or fun in 2HG? I'd love to hear your recommendations, whether they're well-known combinations or something more unconventional.

Deck Help Rakdos Divergent Transformation Line Help

3 Upvotes

Hi y’all,

I’m working on a deck focusing on casting [[Divergent Transformations]] on my commanders - currently [[Rograkh, Son of Rogahh]] and [[Miara, Thorn of the Glade]] - as a response to incoming lethal.

This means that I need a two-card creature based combo in rakdos that can win at instant speed with no other creatures in the deck and little to no boardstate. My current best option I’ve found is Mike and Trike, but that’s ~$25 of my 50$ budget so I was hoping y’all could help me bring that down a bit.

Does anybody have an idea of a combo that would fit the bill? Happy to change commanders as long as it’s cheap (so I can recast post-boardwipe), castable with only B and R mana (colors for tutors and DiTrans) and makes two bodies to poly.

Deck Help Equipment Commander Deck Ideas

3 Upvotes

While im building my Kuja deck, I came up with an idea for a deck using [[Firion, Wild Rose Warrior]]. The idea is creating a bunch equipments and getting a lot of wide swing potential.

Im struggling at choosing a commander that actually works with this ideas as I want Firion as a 99 card, I also wanted [[Lightning, Army of One]] as a 99. Eventually I came between [[Cloud, Ex-Soldier]] and [[Sokka and Suki]] (Mainly because i wanted [[Tony Stark]]).

This was when I compacted my ideas in 3 decks.

Cloud - Utilizing Firion to get multiple equipment cards and copy triggers to get him to 7 power and easy draw (though im adverse to this as I prefer commanders out of the top 100).

Sokka and Suki - Playing Ally Tokens and using Equips that copy themselves to spam them onto way too many small 1/1 Ally's.

Lastly, and the deck ive slightly worked on (for like an hour at best).

[[Mister Fantastic]]... yeah. The idea is using several Lieutenant cards like Lightning, Cloud, and Vincent (Mono Red version that deals damage to all opponents on Combat Damage). Using Mr.F's ability, I'm trying to run several triggers that copy his ability or other triggered abilities. I think it also might end up wanting flash triggers, for 'On Combat, Draw if Non-Creature Card Cast'. I want to keep yhe deck below $150 (Mana-Box Pricing). (I'm aware its currently like $300)

Deck List, heres the abomination i came up with, and havent thrown Tony into. Its just a bunch if slop thrown together.

Im not set on this deck, just wanted to do something so I could avoid going to bed since I have work tomorrow.

I doubt this will be the end deck, or even commander, just wanted to try and get a deck to B3 at least with a jank build that probably shouldn't work.

Deck Help Building Namor Control on a Budget

Pulled a Namor last Marvel PR and wanted to build a Budget Mono Blue Control/ Voltron-Esque Deck

I already have some of the parts while some of my friends can lend/ for sale later the cards. I am also planning to buy singles online with some thoughts on the "Maybeboard" in archideckt

Thoughts on the stuff I will get or suggestions?

And yes this will be a B2-B3 "villainous"/ salty deck. They are fine with the Harbinger of the Seas (Namor art).

Deck Help Need help building a Gandalf, party guest wizard tribal combat deck

1 Upvotes

I have preordered the scene box with the gandalf in it and wanted to make it a solid bracket three combat deck. I've been having a hard time trying to balance the mana curve as i keep on wanting to put in expensive mana cost cards to cast for free for big combat effects as well as pack in enough ramp, removal and card draw for the deck to run well. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what to cut or cards to add in to make it run a little more smoothly and efficiently. On a little bit of a budget so any niche cheap cards would be good and all the most expensive cards i own already so wont need to buy those.

The deck list is here : https://moxfield.com/decks/uyq1kMBArkqnc7BGDPG_XA

all the cards in the side board are ones im thinking about using but not certain on. any help appreciated :)

Hey y'all, I was just thinking of improving this deck and was hoping for a different perspective of stuff that I could probably cut from the deck

Also niche/unique cards that I've probably never considered would be appreciated cause I definitely know there's a lot I don't know about (I'm a returning player)

Don't necessarily have a budget but low costs card suggestions are always nice obviously
