---

I'm thinking of making Captain Sisay the commander for this deck instead of Gaddock Teeg. Sisay could then of course go get Teeg and it wouldn't be much of a different deck. I would of course add more legendary cards of all types, but still keep the main theme of lockdown. Having more legends in the deck would also allow me to easily change commanders on the fly.

My opponents usually want to throw my deck against the wall and they go straight for me and me only in group games.

Potential Problems

• Where the hell did I put my Swords to Plowshares ? I know I have one around here somewhere...

Cards to Possibly Cut

• Vengeful Archon - I don't mana ramp very well and this card feels like it relies on lots of mana.
• Thalia, Guardian of Thraben - This card is incompatible with Gaddock Teeg
• Glowrider - This card is also incompatible with Gaddock Teeg. No matter what may affect the cost of a card, the converted mana cost in Teeg's eyes is what is printed on the card and that only.

Cards to Consider

• Ensnaring Bridge - Even more ways to not get attacked.
• Chalice of the Void - Your general costs 3? Oh ok, Chalice on 3. :D
• Pithing Needle - Frustrates combo decks or their general if it has an activated ability.
• Karmic Guide - Crazy awesome reanimation and paired with Reveillark? Even more crazy.
• Sun Titan - Even more awesome reanimation. Not that this is the deck's focus, but it's definitely nice to have.
