Are you planning on making any PDH decks from the new set?
I'm thinking of doing a artifact deck based on the Herald of Kozilek. He/It is pretty cheap, and makes all of my colorless spells cost (1) less. Ruination Guide and Vile Aggregate are two other options, but I like having two or more colors.

TheRaven: In pauper EDH, you may use uncommon nonlegendaries as your commander, and only commons in the 99.

Plated Crusher and Zulaport Cutthroat are the only other contenders I see.

Serene Steward could also be fun to build with. But I'd probably lean towards a Gold card like Drana's Emissary or Grove Rumbler (for the beats!).

Herald of Kozilek would be a fun artifact deck option

Are there enough common black ally cards to make the Zulaport Cutthroat effective? The Plated Crusher is really frightening. Hexproof and tramples, yikes.
Serene Steward is nice with some lifelink creatures. Are there enough common ones? Drana's Emissary is nice, evasion plus a lifedrain ability. Being able to use both black and white cards is nice. If you can get enough ramp, and maybe some land bounce Grove Rumbler can be scary.

Here are all the Common white creatures with Lifelink. You might also look for any creatures with the Spirit Link text.
Zulaport Cutthroat is essentially a sacrifice deck. He doens't just trigger when an Ally dies.

Am I missing something, because those cards aren't commons or legendary...
