With any Commander deck, I think it’s important to set a personal goal for the game. This deck has made some really splashy plays and has been tons of fun to pilot. Also, this deck can absolutely work with a lower budget simply by swapping in cards that have similar functions: trade All Is Dust for a Chain Reaction, Curse of Opulence for an Izzet Locket, Hangarback Walker for a Nuisance Engine, etc. For alternate win conditions, try out Mechanized Production or Mirrodin Besieged. Keeping a Helm of Possession around to threaten to sacrifice a Thopter and steal one of our opponents’ creatures can be a great Pillow Fort tool. A few other cards to try out: Rite of Replication or other copy spells, Broodstar, Spell Swindle, and Brass’s Bounty. I am constantly swapping cards in and out to try them, and the deck generally works the same way. One thing that has kept my interest with this deck is its flexibility. Our finishers like Comet Storm or Earthquake can double as board wipes earlier in the game as well. With that in mind, my favorite Fireball finishers are ones that are multipurpose that is, we can use them early to midgame before we’re ready to burn the table to a crisp: Expansion/Explosion and Invoke the Firemind are great flexible spells. We will have a swarm of tiny Thopters and Servos, but we may have to be a bit controlling until we’re ready for our big move.
One downside of not using big creatures as our haymakers is that we don't build our board presence. The goal of this deck is to build up as many artifacts and artifact tokens as we can to power up a giant Fireball and burn the whole table for oodles of damage at once. īuy this decklist from Card Kingdom Buy this decklist from TCGplayer Don't be sad, little butter Servo, you will soon become a Steel Hellkite. With a Counterspell in hand, we'll feel unstoppable! This is also flexible, since we can target an opponent to try to turn their biggest threat into a mana rock, or use it politically to try to convince an opponent to team up with us! Any deck that finds itself with extra tokens on the board and more potent creatures or artifacts in the library may want to consider Indomitable Creativity. Even hard-casting this for X = 3 to Polymorph three things is a decent rate and can get you ahead. We will likely cast this for X = 10+ and immediately become the biggest threat at the table. Imagine using all of those to power up Saheeli to cast Indomitable Creativity, which then turns every one of those tiny little tokens into potent artifacts and creatures from our deck. Saheeli ends up with a lot of little Servos, Thopters, Treasures, and other little tokens laying around. This is the only X spell I'm going to talk about, and that's because it's amazing no matter what style of Saheeli deck we're playing. I'll be challenging cards that support Saheeli, so they can apply no matter which haymaker spells we choose. She does my favorite thing in Commander, which is to go really, really big without quite going infinite. She discounts the colorless mana in a spell by how many artifacts you control, so she's often used to power out big artifacts, Eldrazi, or, my personal favorite, X spells, but we'll get to them later. Like UrzaTron in Modern, Saheeli is an engine for casting enormous spells. I was drawn to Saheeli, the Gifted as the underdog of the Commander 2018 precon face commanders.

Keep in mind that these suggestions are meant as considerations to accompany EDHREC’s data. Our goal is to highlight cards that we think are seeing too much play or too little play and classify them as overplayed, underplayed, or sleeper picks (not showing up at all on the commander’s page, but really should). In this series, we’ll challenge the inclusion rates of 10 cards in a deck on EDHREC.
