Thanks for stopping by. I started playing Magic during Revised until Urza's Saga and then completely retired, only to begin playing again at the release of Return to Ravnica, before eventually retiring except for the occasional game of Commander. After a long time away, I am starting to brew again more competitively; whether I start hitting the LGS for Standard tournaments remains to be seen. Regardless, I hope to reconnect with old friends and make new ones as well.

I love to homebrew and try out new things. I would say I'm a control player at heart. Don't get me wrong, there are days when I want to tap hasty creatures and pound face, but I prefer control type builds. My Commander games are mostly multipleplayer with anywhere between 3-7 players, which is reflected in the builds.

Way back in the day, I also loved to do playtests on tappedout. I briefly helped Spootyone with his article series, but no longer had the time to do them.

My current Commander builds:

What better way to make friends is then bringing slivers to the party. This deck is a lot of fun and much more flexible and resilient then I thought it would have been, long live the horde!

A work in progress, I wanted to make a Commander deck with Aurelia, the Warleader as my General and was looking for ways to make something that wasn't vanilla. I decided to take advantage of her ability that allows all creatures to untap and build in elements to put into place a soft lock with cards like Smoke, Meekstonefoil, etc. and cards that synergize with them. Fun but not there yet.

Thanks for looking!

Updated!

Out are cards that help opponents or don't have ideal synergy or add to the major mechanics: Anvil of Bogardan, Horn of Greed, Dictate of Kruphix, Howling Mine, Temporal Mastery, Time Warp, Smoke, Sign in Blood, Mystic Retrieval, Dismal Backwater, Doom Blade, Damnable Pact.

In (reanimation theme and some targets for reanimation): Exhumefoil (not 100% on this one), Soul Exchange (idealy would want one that could target all graveyards), Dance of the Dead, Animate Dead, Liliana of the Veil, Necromancy, Sire Of Insanity (bomb that minimizes opponent's ability to profit from the wheel), Mangara's Tome (I love this as a way to stack all of my reanimation cards, or anything else that I want to protect from my own wheel effects. Curious to see how it plays. The sceptor is included for the same reason), Sepulchral Primordial, Diluvian Primordial, and Molten Primordial.

Need to get an Academy Ruins.

I’m considering adding a few bombs and graveyard recursion to draw them out on the cheap after they hit the graveyard through a wheel effect. There are also a few artifacts that let you put cards from your hand or graveyard into exile under them, which I like as an outlet to protect assets from inadvertently ending up in the graveyard. I thought Flashback would be a good mechanic, but am thinking of going another way. Details forthcoming soon.

Updated with better tutors/mana rocks I pulled from an old tribal zombie deck. Additional changes made to make it more competitive.

I think it still needs more removal and ways to deal with artifacts/enchantments, but I haven't decided what that should be. I'm also not super excited about my high end bombs, it would be nice to have win-cons that are not dependent on going infinite or forcing loss of life.
