Welcome to Random Acts of Randomness. This is my first partner EDH deck. I was originally drawn to Vial Smasher as a fun card to smash face randomly. So I looked through all the other partners and settled on Ludevic. When they are both out, Ludevic acts as a draw engine for me every turn I cast a spell. While also encouraging other players to attack elsewhere so that they can share some card draw on their own turns. Neither commander is particularly threatening, so hopefully they can hang out on the board, burning and drawing me cards all game. My deck will also help speed up the game I believe by sending out damage and not really building a board state as much.

So then, what to fill a deck like this with was the next question. I liked the randomness of Vial Smasher and wanted to make this a chaos centered deck. So I emphasized randomness. There are a large chuck of cards centered around flipping coins. Makes me seem like less of a target when I hit you with random damage instead of targeted damage.

This deck isn't set up to really win in any way. It's going to be a fun social deck that hopefully allows me to stay alive and randomly affect the board. Hopefully not coming in last, but almost certainly never going to win either. In my playgroup, most of the time I have the most hated deck at the table which results in me being the target. So this gives me a deck that won't be that competitive and will allow me to have fun without being the target perhaps.

The other way I thought about taking this was to take advantage of Vial more by ramping into big CMC spells and playing more instants on other's turns (could be a fun control deck). But I liked the idea of random coin flips and chaos more for now. If I want to make this more competitive down the line, perhaps I'll go that route.
