After reading the EDHREC article on Taigam, Ojutai Master, decided to make a Spell-Slinger Deck with Token Generators. The objective is to pillow fort with counters and board wipes, while setting up great mana base (rocks). Find your combo pieces and take infinite turns.

Strengths - Once combo is in place or you have Commander with Protection (ie. Greaves) he's hard to remove. Weaknesses - People will know that the commander is the most important piece to the deck. He should be removed at all times.

Version 1

Revolved around lower costed Cantrips spells & Token Generation (Go Wide Theme). Found this deck to be too slow or not being able to find a good token generator fast enough. Single draw spells aren't enough to keep the hand filled, not enough mana rocks, and not enough threats.

Version 2

Took out a lot of non essential Token-themed cards out of the deck. Except for Monastery Mentor, Docent of Perfection  , Talrand, Sky Summoner, which all trigger when casting Instant / Sorceries. The tokens are your primary offence and defence.

As game winning and surprising as the re-animator theme, it was often more of a mid-game combo to discard your biggest creatures (With Draw Discard Spells) and then use an un-counterable (Commander ability) reanimate. Also, took out the sub-reanimator theme, as there wasn't enough creatures in the deck to support this sub-theme. Defy Death & Resurrection.

Version 3 - Edited 5-9-19 [WAR]

Took out sub re-animator theme, too many big creatures in my hand early that did nothing. Just added more stax cards like Lavinia, Azorius Renegade, spot removal, filtering, and draw mechanisms. Added War of the Spark Cards Teferi, Time Raveler and Narset, Parter of Veils

**Version 4 - Decided to rebuild the Deck

Wanted to make it as cEDH as possible.
