Coming back to the game, is my deck out of date?

Commander Deck Help forum

Hey all, I'm coming back to the game after a few year long hiatus. I stopped playing after Dominaria and my main Commander deck is probably way out of date.

Guess Who's Back, Back Again, And Again (pretty apt name)

I've gotten suggestions such as Impact Tremors, Generator Servant, Sword of Truth and Justice and many others. What are some staple cards I may be missing? What vital +1/+1 counter cards have been released since Dominaria?

Not terribly much

Dockside Extortionist - is almost a must in any deck running red thing is absolutely the best red card printed in the last 5 years

Fain, the Broker - may not have haste but he's doing everything you wanna be doing with this commander

The Ozolith - basically helps keep things around

Feed the Swarm - targeted enchantment removal!

Dauthi Voidwalker - is a freaking beast of a stax card and it's a beater

Immersturm Predator - not a huge fan of this 1 but works well with your commander

Juri, Master of the Revue - this is some spicy tech

Fairly sure MH was after Domineria so Yawgmoth, Thran Physician is a home run

Terror of the Peaks - value town city furniture

Opposition Agent - doesn't have synergy but dang is it good

The format has sped up a lot in the past few years, quick ramp like Arcane Signet, the talismans, the signets, etc. is a must!

RNR_Gaming Thanks for the suggestions! Lots of expensive cards, probably won't invest in those anytime soon but I'll definitely throw in the cheaper ones

Omniscience_is_life Thanks for the tip, I'll beef up my ramp a bit

Dockside Extortionist came in the jeskai precon last year - you may be still able to snag one at a walmart/big box store I still see the other decks from that year at mine; jeskai one is a bit hard to come by though but you'd basically be paying $40 + tax for a $50 + 99 other cards lol I was unaware there was a budget suppose I should of checked the list out 1st.

RNR_Gaming All good, I didn't say anything about a budget just want to improve the list. If I do get back into the game I'll upgrade the deck a bit. I'll see if I can dig around to find the deck. Thanks for the tips!

not a new card but to me Breath of Fury just screams value in a Marchesa, the Black Rose deck. if your making changes anyways its worth considering.

griffstick Thanks for the tips!

RambIe I definitely had that card in an earlier version of the deck, can't remember why I took it out but it definitely sounds great
