your commander needs to change bro. his ability wont take affect since the command zone and the graveyard aren't the same.

The goal is to play Kokusho, the Evening Star out of the graveyard rather than from the command zone. Technically, you should only need to cast him out of the command zone once per game.

the commander doesn't go to the graveyard. if he is exiled or killed in any way he goes to the command zone dude.

so if you want use of him you have to change the commander otherwise you're just using him to have a solid black edh

Rule 903.11. - If a commander would be put into its owner's graveyard from anywhere, that player may put it into the command zone instead.

then that completely negates the commander rule that if it would die or be exiled then it goes to the command zone and cost more. plus idk if you payed attention to black legendries but there are better ones for what you are wanting to do and very very easy ways to get your previous commander out and just use him all the time but whatever if youre gonna argue then idk why your edh was in the help tab when I was the only one who commented trying to help.

Sheoldred, Whispering One is much much better than who you have and can make use of him easier.

Commander tuck rule allows you to choose where it goes. If it would be removed from the field you have the choice to either put it in the command zone or wherever it would be sent (ex back to your hand, the graveyard, exiled, etc.)

I love how everyone is debating about what happens when Kukusho dies, but fail to realize that he isn't even a legal commander. Yep, that's right folks, he's on the EDH commander ban list.

If so then wouldn't it not say that this edh is legal?

Kukosho isnt on the banlist. http://mtgcommander.com/rules.php is the official banlist linked from the wizards website

Vesuva and Thespian's Stage to copy Cabal Coffers. Expedition Map to search for them.

With all this death and recursion Gonti, Lord of Luxury may be worth consideration.

Like the deck. +1 from me!

I'm currently putting together a Chainer deck, and I have to ask, why not use him as commander? I'm really curious cause I love the dragon from a flavor stand point.

Alrighty so I have a question. Looking at your infinite combos it seems Mikaeus, the Unhallowed is used for 2 of them. A friend of mine brought up while I was thinking of using Kokusho, the Evening Star as my first multi commander, why not just use Mikaeus instead? You mentioned how Kokusho was your favourite commander. My question to you theLegendred is, why do you have him as your fav commander? I'm aware he can be brought back from the grave but you'd want to be as efficient as possible yes? What crazy stuff can you do with him? I'm surprised no infinite combos or just combos in general that are mentioned involve him.

Just in case you weren't aware, with the M21 update commanders will hit the graveyard or exile before you can return them to the command zone. This means you can ease up a little on the graveyard returning cards if you want to include some other stuff!! But if it's more efficient than recasting from the command zone each time then disregard this. Great deck!!
