We all have that deck that just survives even though it isn’t the best. For me that’s [[Torgaar, Famine Incarnate]]. It’s not the best mono black commander in any way but its particular combination of effects to me is emblematic of mono black. It’s a bit of a swiss army knife and so I find myself hard pressed to really change anything about the core of the deck.
What’s your pet deck?
Jodah seems very fair to me especially compared to the new Jodah. “[[Fist of Suns]] on legs” seems like a fun and fair proposition. Like, it’s just ramp. You have to commit to having Big Expensive Commander Cards in your deck to make the juice worth the squeeze. I’d rater get smacked in the face with a splashy 10 mana spell from deep in Magic’s history than see [[The Great Henge]] go off again.
Jodah also seems like it’s fun because you can kind of put whatever you want in it, more or less, as long as the cards are splashy enough.
I have always wanted to build a Jodah deck but with a Wheel of Time theme and Jodah as Rand Al’thor. I’m a huge wheel of time fan and that’s the one deck I would probably “bling” out with alters and foils.
