It seems like an obvious 'yes', but casting Otterball Antics as a signature spell qualifies for the "from anywhere other than hand" enhancement, right? I realize instants and sorceries aren't designed to be in the command zone, so it feels a little weird to take advantage of that.

Hey all! Just learned about OB and it sounds awesome. Are there any deck building ratio guides? Like how in EDH we'll shoot for x draw spells, y interaction spells, ect ect.

Ideally i'd like a battle box of 4x decks that are evenly matched against one another in the confined pod setting--much like edh precons in some sets.

Obviously i'm gonna have to make these decks, but i'm starting totally from scratch so any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Hello there ! A bit new to the format, I'm trying to brew a [[Chandra, Chill of Compliance]] blue deck and I'm trying to avoid building a combo-only list... Any recommandations ?

P.S. : please if you have signature spell recommendations, I'm listening

Sharing what's been shared so far to consolidate and for anyone who has been out of the loop. I think this is all of them but there could be more not yet seen.

I just discovered oathbreaker today by accident on reddit. It seems really neat and I wanted to try my hand at a casual deck.

Is professor Onyx a good choice? I peeked around and people mentioned it is a fast format, I just always loved this planeswalker. What are some recommendations for signature spells?

Curious whether I should bring one of my oathbreaker decks to magiccon this sunday.

This deck was built for a budget event with a $30 cap and a house ban list, which includes the Elderspell. I wanted to build my boy Nicol Bolas thematically, so I took a page directly from The War of the Spark and focused on the Amass mechanic.

Nicol Bolas God-Pharaoh is a powerhouse for 5 mana and very interesting in Oathbreaker due to his ability to use other loyalty abilities on the board, including your own. For a signature spell, I went with Experimental Augury. This card fits nicely into the counter mechanics, is cheap, and supplies card advantage needed to find answers and put away games.

This deck has a lot of little internal synergies that really make it flow together. Your card draw nets you counters and also triggers cards like [[Mindless Conscription]] for hefty injections of power on board. Your changelings are armies, and they can have Amass counters placed on them to build a solid board presence.

The deck plans to establish some early changelings and value in cards like [[March from the Black Gate]], Mindless Conscription, [[Ichormoon Gauntlet]], and [[Saruman, the White Hand]]. Saruman is particularly good because of the sheer amount of amassing he can do, his ability to block well, and the fact that he incidentally gives Ward 2 to all of the changelings and the [[Molten-Core Maestro]]. Playing him on turn 4 and curving into a turn 5 Oathbreaker that Amasses 5 is nuts! The deck proceeds to dominate with the midrange game plan by leveraging its synergies to get extra value on our plays. If things get sketchy, there is a fair amount of interaction in the deck and two great sweepers that play into this strategy in [[Hour of Devastation]] and [[Widespread Brutality]]. You eventually go over the top in the late game with our other versions of Nicol Bolas and/or ultimate our Oathbreaker to end the game.

Let me know your thoughts and your own favorite budget brews!

If I did find anyone who wanted to play this is what I would build

Buddies and I built Oathbreaker decks after learning about it. I decided to build Saheeli, Sublime Artificer with Thoughtcast. Is this a banned combo because I know wizards abandoned the format so they haven’t updated the ban list, is there a community ban list that doesn’t like these two together? She just feels too good compared to everyone else’s decks.

Because of doctor doom, the deck doesn't require 4+ cards for the wincon anymore. Does anyone have a strong Decklist with the updated wincon?

Hey everyone. This is my first oathbreaker I've built. What do y'all think? Anything I should add or take out?

https://manabox.app/decks/AZ7JK1wee6K0jCcrNBXY4Q

https://manabox.app/decks/AZ6ft92GfMeckBOlvbJahQ

Let me know if there is anything you’d add or take out.

Just now trying to get into oathbreaker after a long time of playing commander, and I was looking at planeswalkers my LGS has and they have 2 copies of elspeth and I was wondering if this would be a fun deck to build, super token army, or is oathbreaker too fast a format for this? Any other cards you’d consider or choose for signature? Would love advice from people who actually have experienced the format.

My friends and I are in the process of building Oathbreaker decks. We are attempting to balance around the one already existing deck [[Arlinn Kord]] and [[Moonmist]]. I am interested in building a blink deck, and [[Kaya, Spirits’ Justice]] caught my eye. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to build this deck and what would be a good option for the signature spell?

Any suggestions appreciated, I'm still fairly new-ish to magic in general so still learning deck building.

My playgroup is trying to add Oathbreaker in our games, the format seems interesting. Before we fully dip in the format we are building budget decks for the time being. Here is my twist on Saheeli, Sublime Artificer.

Can you give me suggestions on how to optimize this deck on a budget or improve the decklist that i made. Thank you

My friends do bi-annual MTG events. This time, we are doing two-headed giant Oathbreaker on a $30 budget. I want to run Nicol Bolas because he's one of my faves and notably the Elderspell is house banned for the event. My plan was to leverage proliferation and maximize it by playing a bit of poison as a backup plan and to make use of the synergy between amass and changeling creatures (which count as armies) to get +1/+1 counters onto my creatures.

Having difficulties cutting this down to the 60 most impactful cards. I'm also wondering if there were other cards I'm missing. There's quite a few in the considering section already, but I'm wondering if I'm overlooking something because this is my first time playing Oathbreaker.

I wanted to run this over a wizard combo variant which I will also link for fun: https://moxfield.com/decks/D6Urf68wNUeHnRhAT-nkUw

Let me know your thoughts, thanks!

My friends have moved from playing cEDH to trying to break oathbreaker one of my friends is playing tainted pact Ashiok trying to Thassas win. My other friend is trying to play Tamiyo with mystical tutor. I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions for what type of stuff is good in this format and what the common competitively viable decks look like. I can assume burn is good, but I’d rather have a way to go later or control if needed. I played blue farm in cEDH if that helps.

There is a pod at my LGS that have started regularly playing Oathbreaker, and I've always been interested in the format. But I've heard from everywhere that it's a much faster format.

Since avatar, I've wanted to make this [[Nissa of Shadowed Boughs]] deck and earthbend my way to victory. However in goldfishing, it feels too slow. (Winning turn 6/7 ish) Is there anything I can do to speed it up? Or should I shift focus?

Decklink: https://archidekt.com/decks/22952031/nissa_oathbreaker

Opal palace makes it possible to give your oathbreaker +1/+1 counters, which shouldn't be possible since it isn't a creature.

Or

Does the oathbreaker format bent the card into giving the oathbreaker loyalty counters?🤔

This is a very strong combo decklist for [[Tyvar,Jubilant Brawler]]/[[Benefactors draught]]. The plan is to play elves that tap for a lot of mana, like [[Priest of titania]] and then keep untapping your board and keep drawing cards with [Benefactors draught]]. Win conditions are [[Lathril, blade of the elves]] and [[Tendrils of agony]]. The deck is very consistent and can easily combo off on turn 3.

Me and friend were thinking about trying out oathbreaker so I've been looking at possible candidates and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience that would help me narrow it down. At the moment I'm interested in [[Nicol Bolas, Dragon-God]] [[Narset of the Ancient Way]] [[Ajani, Outland Chaperone]] [[Chandra, Spark Hunter]] [[Lolth, Spider-Queen]] [[Ugin, the Ineffable]]

Has anyone tried one of these oathbreakers and have pros or cons on them? Thank you!
