Saskia politics is dumb

Commander / EDH BRGW

Built to compete with the best and even though we don't have guaranteed wins much less stability we can break our opponents down til they scoop. The tilt factor from the deck might swing the game for us because the cards we play might cause our opponents to stumble and that's when we go for the soft-lock/kill.

Turn 2 saskia and try to play the right value creatures for the right moment. keeping a red mana open for blasts or white mana for removal as well as 3 mana as potential aven mindsensor. Resolving authority of the consuls and blind obedience with thalia backup can buy you a turn to carve out what threats need to be dealt with in order.

If after a while of beatings the table turns on us and runs us out of resources our only recourse is to draw as much of our deck as possible and win with kiki-jiki + resto angel or zealous conscripts. Hopefully, in the early game we gained enough life between authority of consuls, lifelink, Extort triggers or even land drops with courser of kruphix to abuse our dark confidant triggers and necro activations.

:[ Not my favorite version of Saskia, but i decided to add cards I consider cheese to make her a little more threatening early on. Not many decks play ad nauseum so we have to apply early cheap pressure to decks that can just find Hulk lines very easily. Sacrificed fun and originality and the access to battlecruiser with our 6/7 cmc angels for efficient cheese threats like Serra and managorger Hydra. Our fun comes from how much our opponents complain and disagree with our decisions as they get pummeled to death.
