House rules can keep Commander more interesting, and today Abe Sargent explores the potential to spice up your Commander deckbuilding by embracing some legendary-feeling but technically non-Legendary cards at the helm of a new deck built just for them.
GerryT thought the Abzan Rally deck from #SCGRICH would be the be-all, end-all combo deck of Standard before #PTOrigins… but today’s deck shows there’s more combo out there if you want to look for it!
Bennie is usually a Commander kind of guy, and occasionally he touches Standard when there’s an event coming up – but Modern? What’s he got to do for that? Play a couple of popular Commanders and pull of some sweet, unexpected shenanigans – that’s what!
Pro Tour Magic Origins is here and the metagame seems to have shaken out over the past week. Adrian Sullivan may or may not be playing U/B Control, but if he does run it this weekend, here’s the cards he’s thinking about in new contexts for the event.
With #PTOrigins and #SCGRegionals this weekend, the question on everyone’s mind is “How do you beat Abzan Rally?” Our illustrious CEDitor represents the Patrick Sullivan wing of Magic by shuffling up the red cards to try and blow “the best deck” out of the water.
