I built a [[Multani, Yavimaya’s Avatar]] $50 budget deck a number of years back that is just a mono green spell slinger build. It is pretty simple to play for new people and resilient enough to play with my normal group.

Being a budget deck I even run it unsleeved and get that nostalgia of playing kitchen table magic as a kid.

I love my Akiri Line-Slinger + Silas-Ren deck. It’s not the best in terms of win rate but it’s always fun to play as both the commanders are so cheap to cast.

My oldest deck is [[Aesi, Tyrant of Gyre Strait]] which has turned into a bit of a monster since I added a few cards that happen to create a bunch of ways to make infinite Landfall combos. It could probably be even stronger if I took out some of the high-cost sea monsters to focus just on Landfall, but I like big sea monsters.

After that my [[Gishath, Sun’s Avatar]] deck is pretty new, I just made it this year, but I already love it. Big dinos!

For me it’s anything with [[Stitcher’s Supplier]] in it. Right now I really love trying to make Dredge work in Historic and soon Pioneer.

E: didn’t see this was in Commander. That would be Kenrith, the Returned King 😛

[[Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider]] and his friend [[Triumph of the Hordes]]

You can randomly come out of nowhere and kill everyone in a single combat and it’s amazingly glorious (and salt-generating) when it goes off.

I’ve almost always had some sort of durdly artifact deck built. Started with Kurkesh “Tinker Toys” where it was just a bunch of things that could fit together into whacky Rube-Goldberg machine combos. Eventually moved it to Breya when she released and the deck became much more powerful and streamlined. Later on, I put together Osgir + Zirda and also Urza, Lord High Artificer, featuring mostly old-bordered artifacts and pre-BRO cards that reference him as a character. I joke that the deck is about a 4 and 3.5 of that is Urza himself. Nowadays, I’ve achieved my final form and I’m playing 5C Legendary Artificer tribal with Ramos, trying to recapture some of that weirdness of Kurkesh. Has been a fun time!

[[Isperia the Inscrutable]]

This is the only commander deck I’ve consistently kept around over the years. I don’t remember how I discovered this card, but I think it’s a neat ability and the commander itself feels flavourful and badass. I started playing during Return to Ravnica, which perhaps added a bonus feeling of “wow, it’s the original Isperia!”.

My deck isn’t terribly good since I don’t play Commander very competetively. I’ve tried to have sphinxes and stuff that feel badass and fitting for the deck instead of busted combos or whatever. [[Medomai the Ageless]] is a typical target to search for.

The only “combo” I can think of off the top of my head (been a while since I’ve played the deck) is [[Bruna, the Fading Light]] and [[Gisela, the Broken Blade]]. I think that combo is hilarious due to the name of the melded card: Brisela. We ship Brisela.

Grand arbiter Stax with winter orb :)

[[Trostani, Selesnya’s Voice]] and [[Queen Marchesa]] Long may she reign! These were two of the first decks I built by myself and countless decks have been built and taken apart since them and they’re still here and still get played.
