Sideboard

Creature (1)

• 1x Captain Sisay

---

A commander deck based around Captain Sisay that uses the entire deck like a sideboard to select exactly the right card to tutor up! A sub-theme within the deck involves cards like Fyndhorn Brownie and Seeker of Skybreak to untap Captain Sisay and double the search effect. Included as well are cards like Norn's Annex and Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker which help create a pillow fort effect.

Card breakdown (work in progress):

Akroma's Memorial: grab this vs red or black decks or to give all your creatures super-powers. /p

Ayumi, the Last Visitor : solid card to start putting pressure on your opponents.

Brigid, Hero of Kinsbaile : great against token and aggro decks, combine with an untapper to do 4 damage to all attacking or blocking creatures.

champions's helm: fits nicely with the legendary theme even though its not legendary itself, hexproof is important and the buff is always nice

Collective Blessing : +3/+3 for all your creatures, permanently. Nothing to scoff at

Commander Eesha : great for blocking, can survive any combat and only trample gets around him

congregation at down: used to tutor up important creatures that aren't legendary

Crovax, Ascendant Hero : kind of like a mini Elesh Norn with a built in failsafe

Cultivate: helps you get to those bombs faster and keeps card advantage

Darien, King of Kjeldor: a huge disincentive to attack you? "Go ahead and swing, how's 15 soldier tokens sound?"

Dosan the Falling Leaf: forces your opponents to leave you alone on your turn

Eight-and-a-Half-Tails: spot protection for anyone you want.

Fyndhorn Brownie : part of the untap-it package, goodsynergy with Sisay and with several other guys

Gaddock Teeg: throws a wrench in everyone's plans, except yours ;)

General Jarkeld : A nice effect if you want to screw up their blocking

Gerrard Capashen : the life gain is nice and can help set up Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant, and the other ability serves to ensure that he gets through

Glissa Sunseeker : a must-have against artifact and equipment strategies, search her up early in that case to maximize the amount of stuff you can destroy

Grand Abolisher: another "fight fair" card that forces your opponents to leave you alone and eliminates the threat of counterspells

Harmonize: solid card advantage

Helm of Kaldra: currently trying to get ahold of this set, works amazingly well with Sisay since you can be sure of getting all three pieces eventually

Hero of Bladehold: a solid card, great ability that has good synergy with guys like Crovax and Elesh Norn

Intrepid Hero underestimated card, beautifully simple and deadly if left alone, great synergy with the untap effects.

Isamaru, Hound of Konda: nothing special, just a cool card

Kataki, War's Wage: another artifact hate spell, not useful all the time, sometimes you'll have more artifacts than your opponents and you'll regret having it in your hand, other times it will win games

Kei Takahashi : one of many damage prevention effects in this deck, good for controlling the flow of the game or protecting your creatures

Knight of New Alara : buffs all your creatures, part of the token strategy and a very cool card to look at

Mana Bloom: it is what you need it to be, i love this card to death

Mangara of Corondor: spot removal when you need it

Masako the Humorless: an interesting creature, great combat trick that gives all of your creatures vigilance basically

Michiko Konda: similar to Darien, King of Kjeldor, once you get her out no one will want to attack you until she is dealt with

Mikaeus, the Lunarch: fits into your curve nicely and works well with the token-makers

Mirran Crusader: great card, beast against green and black decks

Nature's Chosen: ridiculous card, perfect with Captain Sisay, Intrepid Hero and friends
