Need a New Commander Project
Commander (EDH) forum
Posted on July 13, 2016, 7:12 p.m. by capriom85
I finished up my Sigarda, Heron's Grace commander deck and I am looking for a new general to try and build with. I am hoping for a mono-colored general this time around, not for any budget reason but mostly because I only ever did mono-color commander with Azami, Lady of Scrolls and there are a lot of different options still available. Go ahead and hit me with some suggestions!
Ghoulcaller Gisa, Pretty popular, and you can go the full zombie route, or an alternative mix of vampires, demons and zombies.
Why you Want monocolor only?

Guan Yu, Sainted Warrior voltron.
Lovisa Coldeyes aggro.
Jalira, Master Polymorphist shenanigans/control.
Or
Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker pillowforty stuff.
These all seem fun to me.

Busse, because I don't do mono-color often. I usually do 2 or 3 colors at a time.
DeathChant17, Jalira seems fun. Can she work without the $20+ blue staples like Cryptic Command and Consecrated Sphinx?

Don't see why not. Just cheat out big blue non legendary creatures with Jalira.

Purphoros, God of the Forge, Avacyn, Angel of Hope, Azusa, Lost but Seeking, Sheoldred, Whispering One, and/or Jace, Vryn's Prodigy Flip are all pretty powerful and fun

Adamaro, First to Desire. A very oddball ability, but very powerful. The deck can be on budget too if needed.

Kothophed, Soul Hoarder? An effect that functions as a semi-Necropotence is awesome in the command zone.

Jolrael, Empress of Beasts seems the most fun to me at the moment. Ramp the hell out of the game and swing my brains out with something like Overrun and the like.

wouldn't it be a lot closer to Dark Prophecy than Necropotence?
July 13, 2016 9:39 p.m.
Plus I wouldn't get that effect when he was in the command zone. Only on board.

Odric, Lunarch Marshal equipment voltron, or you can go Enchantment based. Whatever you do, be sure to include Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx!

@Raging_Squiggle true, but he's always given me enough cards at instant speed to replace potence. Also, need to find a Dark Prophecy... Thanks for the card suggestion!
@capriom85 yes, but I use it as a shorthand to reference a card you'll have access to at any point in the game.

Multani, Maro-Sorcerer is super fun to build around. I built this one click here

You want mono color? Krenko Mob boss is fantastic. A friend of mine managed to swarm me with about 150 goblin tokens. Plus red has some of the best land disruption cards so decks that use tons of nonbasic lands are totally screwed if you put the disruption in Krenko.

Slobad is a fun project. Personally I'm working on ib halfheart and Kami of the crescent moon - both are quite fun and deceptively powerful.
