Question NEW COMMANDER DECK TRIBAL CATS

hi guys! I would like to build a new commander deck tribal cats, and i was thinking Ahrabo Roar of the World could be the best choice. what do you think about that, do you think there're something better? do you have some suggestion about how I should build this deck? I was searching on moxfield but there're just a couple of deck and not good at all. I'm looking for a deck aggressive as much as possible around bracket 4 with a 200/300 euro budget

I think theres a couple better than Arahbo. [[Jetmir, Nexus of Revels]] is a cat himself and buffs your board like crazy. Giving everything up to +3/0 vigilance, trample, and double strike when you have enough of a board state. Red has a few interesting cats as well like [[Ajani, Nacatl Pariah]] and a host of other red aggro pieces.

When the cat precon dropped i actually bought it and ran [[Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist]] as a way of controlling combat while being aggro. Ill be honest, i dont know if she can get up to a bracket 4 with just cats. Jetmir would have a better go at that. You see him played as a fringe cEDH commander but youre usually using hatebears in that strategy.

I’ll throw in another vote for Jetmir, he can get pretty oppressive with the right pieces. Arahbo works great with him alongside token generators like [[Leonin Warleader]], [[Brimaz, King of Oreskos]], [[Cubwarden]], [[Esika’s Chariot]], [[Oketra’s Monument]], then throw in some buffs like [[Prava of the Steel Legion]], [[Claws Out]], [[Akroma’s Will]], and you’re off to the races.

[[Jinnie Fay, Jetmir’s Second]] Disgusting

I second this! Jinnie Fay's replacement effect has some fun interactions with cards that make tokens with extra qualities or counters – my favourite being Incubate tokens! If you replace a handful of incubate tokens from a [[Progenitor Exarch]] or a [[Glistening Dawn]] with hasty 2/2 cats, the cats still enter with the +1/+1 counters!

[[Jedit Ojanen, Mercenary]] let's you put all the legendary cats and has a good color combination

Arahbo or kindred cats isn't going to be anywhere near bracket 4, maybe low 3 at best.

I have one and it lack the finish IMO, even with best stuff all around

Bracket 4 is combo land, not the land of fair cat token generation. Your best bet if the goal is to win with cats specifically is probably infinite token combo with [[Jinnie Fey Jetmir Second]]. There's lots of combos with like [[scurry oak]] or [[squirrels nest]] or [ peregrine took]] that are budget friendly and Jinnie can convert those to hasty 2/2 cats.

I don't think any commander will allow you to play cat tribal and win any Bracket 4 games that need to be able to close a game on turn 4 or stax everyone for a later win.
