I just put this idea together. It's still a work in progress, but Mairsil seems like a cool commander and I wanted to share my deck and see if people had any suggestions. The basic idea is to proc his ETB effect without putting him into the command zone and create combos out of the caged creatures. I tried my best to be unique with Mairsil and not copy other decks, but I feel there aren't many actual win cons with the deck, so I'm hoping others can help me out here. Thanks!
