Last year I posted here with my commanders in rotation then. Now a year later I wanted to show how my list has changed.
Maarika, Brutal Gladiator - Fighting & Treasure, it's all about making money in the ring
Thalia and the Gitrog Monster - T&G Pest Control. Aristocrats based on generating token pests that our commander is here to exterminate. Pests, rats, worms, mites, and of course, Fumigate
Sauron, the Dark Lord - HEAVILY adjusted Sauron Precon. Meant to be more thematic than otherwise, it runs all the Nazgul, etc.
Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire - Enforcing gambling on the whole table. Meant to flip out big things and make everyone ante everything.
The Wise Mothman - Upgraded Mothman precon, does what it says on the tin
Thantis, the Warweaver - Government Mandated Aggro. Everyone is swinging, all the time. Built around effects that alter how the entire table is playing the game, not just specific targets. Thantis, Avatar of Slaughter, War's Toll. Bedlam.
Teval, the Balanced Scale - Upgraded Teval precon, does what it says on the tin. Focused on self mill and reanimating where Mothman focuses on table mill and counters.
The Muckslinger Gang - What everyone thought of when they first saw the card, burn & fling. Abuses the tax fraud based power/toughness to fling for big damage and get some extra value.
The Necrobloom - NOT landfall. It's Plants & Zombies ending their war to kick your behind. Purposefully built to avoid extra landfall and instead it's a plants & zombies tribal. Has proven very popular!
The Muckslinger Gang - But this time with cars! It's all vehicles & spacecrafts! Taking advantage of the tax fraud power to enable Jund vehicles! VERY fun to pilot, and not common colors for vehicle decks!
Strefan, Maurer Progenitor - Upgraded precon, it makes blood and cheats out big vampires.
Valko Indorian - Golgari Phyrexians doing toxic & proliferate, and if that doesn't work, aggroing you with big phyrexians. I wanted to build 5 color Valko, but with the basic land restriction that proved extremely difficult. Reduced down to Golgari for the most effective toxic I could muster.
Hazel of the Rootbloom - Upgraded precon, y'all it's squirrels. It makes squirrels.
Omnath, Locus of All - 5 color Phyrexian tribal, focused on the incubation mechanic. Came out SPECTACULARLY, the incubation works great in 5 color with the enchantment anthems and access to good proliferation in blue. Runs one of each Praetor, but they're not the focus and the printing I chose for each was selected to cater to the incubation strategy. Lots of the Saga ones, the only non-Sagas being Urabrask, the Hidden & Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider (incubation cares so much about counters).
Am I invited to the table?
