@Raging_Squiggle: If I want to do zombies I'd do Grimgrin or Gisa, though. Anyway, I've decided that if I make yet another tribal deck it's gotta be Sygg. I do look forward to seeing your Gisa and Geralf deck, though!

@McKz:I've never been a big fan of her, personally. I've seen some really mean Kaalia decks, but you kind of have to fill your deck with clunky, even bad cards that only work when you're able to trigger Kaalia. I also have some sentimental attachment to Alesha and think that a fully-tuned Alesha deck will be stronger.

@RossDee: Your description of Macar increases my determination to build him someday, I'm just not sure if I want him to be the next commander I build. Alesha seems just awesome, though. You've also talked me out of Zedruu, since multiple people have now said the same thing. So that's good! We've eliminated one possibility.

I don't think I'd build Zur because people will treat it like the bullshit "I can kill you before you do anything relevant" build even if it isn't. Sidisi is interesting though because she has a similarly high ceiling (yay, Ad Nauseam + Tendrils of Agony !) but can also be built more casually. I think for Sultai I'd prefer a more controlling route with Tasigur, but I'll keep her in mind!

@h20 and ducttapedeckbox: Worth considering and in a fun color identity. I'll check him out.

@Atony1400: It does sound fun! Right now I'm just having a hard time convincing myself not to do Ghave instead if I want to do a graveyard-abusing deck.

Maybe you can show me what Jarad brings to the table that Ghave does not, and I'll be more excited about him. It's likely I'm missing something.
