G'day fellow addicts to cardboard crack!
Not so long ago, you helped me build a god-awful deck for a gimmick weekend, so I thought I'd share some of my favourite Commander decks that I've built over the last couple of years with you. Feel free to laugh at the jank, critique the cheese and praisethe sun Nicol Bolas!
If you feel like it, share your favourite decks, ask for build advice or even just talk about your greatest wins & losses.
I'll be updating this post with a new deck every few days as I finish upgrading/editing several of my decks (also they're a pain in the butt to type out and I'm lazy). Each section of the deck will be listed by CMC, not alphabetically, btw.
Without further ado, I present to you my absolute favourite deck and the 1st I've recently finished upgrading:
Alrighty, this next deck was kind of inspired by my recent attempts at playing Dark Souls. It's definitely not a finished deck, and it's got a lot of tuning to do before I think it'll actually be playable, but given my love for janky, themed decks, I'm hoping it's fun to play. Let me know what you think (especially if you have any suggestions for improvement).
Next up, we have one of my silly gimmick decks. I really do love this deck, as it's a lot of fun to play and generally wins a few games to boot.
