This deck is by design a casual deck with a somewhat competitive flourish, it wins alot in the groups I play and should be well rounded in order to manage almost any threat. It can be very slow at times and has a bit of a janky mana base that could be improved but isn't often mana screwed or missing needed colors. Really fast decks like Slivers are it's biggest weaknesses.

The purpose is getting out the most disruptive creatures and planeswalkers in the format, capitalizing off that disruption and playing heavy one-sided control spells while sitting behind a wall of safety putting you far ahead in terms of curve. Many opponents scoop after the second commander ability activation in the upkeep.

I would appreciate any feedback regarding lands or better creature/planewalker slots.
