This is the third draft of my very first commander deck. The deck started as an aristocrats build, before turning into a stax/lock deck. While both decks were pretty strong, I got bored of both of them pretty quickly. Turns out locking your friends out with Grave Pact has a short shelf life in a casual meta.

I took the deck apart to make Yawgmoth, Thran Physician and Rhys the Redeemed decks, but those similarly got old quickly. This new deck is aiming for an interactive tokens build, with some combo upside. It gives me room for pet cards like Desert Twister and Imp's Mischief , but still has an endgame in mind.

We are looking to build out a token army into Craterhoof Behemoth , or tapping that army down for Throne of the God-Pharaoh . If that doesn't work out, we've got loops to combine with Obelisk Spider or Zulaport Cutthroat , like Quillspike and Devoted Druid or Blowfly Infestation . As a backup backup plan, there's always Exsanguinate .

We're packing a non-zero amount of targeted removal because of my playgroup's aversion to pact effects. There's probably more ramp than the low-CMC curve requires, but I'm never mad at having too much mana.
