Best/ Favorite Precon EDH Deck

Commander (EDH) forum

Posted on Dec. 19, 2015, 10:06 p.m. by Prophet_of_Xenagos

I have just found out earlier today that my new Narset combo deck, is absurdly powerful compared to the slightly tuned precon decks the rest of my playgroup is playing (duh). Even if they all focused me from the start I would probably win. Due to this, I decided to pick up a new precon deck and add a few cheap cards to them. Which precon do you personally like best? Which one is the strongest? Why? Jeleva, Prossh, and Oloro already in use. Was thinking about going with Derevi just because I am in love with Prophet of Kruphix, but I wanted some opinions first! Thanks! (sorry admins if this is in the wrong category, wasn't really sure where to put it)

The Meren pre-con is ridiculously over powered in a pre-con vs. pre-con fight. You could put $30 into the deck and probably 3v1 the table if you played it smart.

If your problem is that your existing deck is too stronk, why chase the strongest precon? It seems like you're not really looking to fix the problem. You're also not limited to a precon.

Is there a reason all the decks in your playgroup are from C13? I like the Teferi, Temporal Archmage deck, but I think that has a lot to do with the heavy alterations I made to mine.

The Derevi deck is great.

If you love Prophet of Kruphix, why not pick up Ezuri's deck from C15? It's the color combination, and it's focused on creatures. 2 birds, 1 stone.

TheDevicer Currently my extremely competitive deck is working way too well against a couple of beefed up precons, I want to win but I also want it to at least be close. My solution, was to make my own beefed up precon.

Derevi is degenerate. It's one of the best generals ever printed.

Personally, my favorite is still Eternal Bargain from C13 (Oloro's deck), though I'm also partial to Built from Scrap (Daretti) simply because Wumcoil is a hell of a card.

I personally use a slightly beefed up Roon of the Hidden Realm deck, which was the derevi precon. Its pretty well balanced right out of the box, and it has a pretty cheap and easy upgrade path imo.

The Marath, Will of the Wild precon was pretty good. He's a really versatile commander.

I have the C15 Meren deck, and it's ridiculous. If you want to have a close win, I wouldn't recommend it because if played right, you can win a 1v3 easily.

Animar, Soul of Elements is a solid commander pre con. Plus it includes the colors for your Prophet of Kruphix.

My favorite/first is Prossh precon. The commander I use in it is Shattergang. There's a lot of hilarious cards in there like Curse of Predation Tempt with Vengeance Jar of Eyeballs
