Commander Help: Mono Red
Deck Help forum
Posted on June 11, 2012, 11:39 a.m. by xantm70
So, as odd as this seems, I have what feels like a solid mono-red EDH deck, but I really could use some help picking a stronger commander. Eron the Relentless is a placeholder right now, as I own that card presently, but it's not especially synergistic. Any thoughts?
Cheers!

Looking through your board I noticed that you're focusing on burn spells and weenie creatures. Generally speaking, those kinds of cards are at their worst in this format given the multiplayer environment and high starting life. You'll want to look at ramping into mass burn (Comet Storm ) and using interactions to get some damage through. Wrath effects are quite prevalent, so multi-creature-based strategies may not always come through for you.

Thanks, Epochalyptik. I'll see what I can do to shore this up. Lots of work in store, methinks...

As counterintuitive as it may seem, Norin the Wary is a great mono red general. The blink effect is great at causing havoc with Pandemonium , Warstorm Surge , and Obsidian Battle-Axe .
Confusion in the Ranks is also pretty dumb.
