libraryjoy on Who is Your Favorite Tribal …

2 years ago

My first real commander deck and probably still my favorite is Gisela, Blade of Goldnight angels.

It's a tough decision though. I play a LOT of tribal, so I have a lot of choices, some mentioned here, some not. Back before the most recent Innistrad set, I used to run Tolsimir Wolfblood wolf tribal with elf support. I'm looking for a good Archer tribal commander but haven't found the right one yet. I built Wydwen, the Biting Gale faeries, Sygg, River Guide merfolk, Yisan, the Wanderer Bard beast/elf tribal, and just finished Sisay, Weatherlight Captain snow tribal. I tried Krond the Dawn-Clad Archon tribal, but it's just not there yet.

Wydwen, the Biting Gale

Yomiji, Who Bars the Way

Oyobi, Who Split the Heavens

Skyfire Kirin or Bounteous Kirin

All of my suggestions (except the last) are decks I've built in the past that EDHREC has less than 100 decks on record for. I really enjoy Kamigawa stuff, and there's some room there to build really interesting things.

Wydwen, the Biting Gale as a Spirit:

Ghost of Wydwen

Legendary Creature - Faerie Spirit {Mythic Rare}

Ghost of Wydwen and each other Faerie creature card you own that isn’t on the battlefield has flash.

Flying

Whenever damage is dealt to Ghost of Wydwen or another Spirit you control, you gain that much life.

Whenever Ghost of Wydwen becomes the target of a spell or ability, you may pay 3 life, if you do, return it to your hand.

2/3


I'd like a semi-decent for draft common with Mana Cost

"Abomination of Llanowar" : Woah okay that art is pretty freaky. Simple yet pretty interesting wide-to-high voltron commander trough elfball.

Falthis, Shadowcat Familiar: neat when paired with a trampling partner

Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer: as is the least artifact-friendly, I feel this is kind of a misguided attempt to answer the fairly big demand for a Golem tribal commander. However, this could be the start of a new megacycle, with one partner Splicer per color. Golems for everyone!

Nevinyrral, Urborg Tyrant: what was ever about this guy? I can only assume it's more mechanically for the board wipes. Anyway, not at all efficient but this + Tombstone Stairwell + Conjurer's Closet is pretty funny. More seriously, delayed/cheap wipes like Planar Collapse or the activation of his Disk lets you afford casting him while still killing a lot of people's stuff, while end-of-turn flickers like Turn to Mist lets you dodge & profit from opposing wipes.

"Flamekin Herald": Honestly kinda underwhelming? I can't think of any commanders -inclusive commanders that can rescue themselves like Wydwen, the Biting Gale

Lathiel, the Bounteous Dawn: Unicorn Power!

so the way I see it you're actually quite close (33 basic lands means 25 basic lands brings you up to 82)

Sooooo creatures

  • Zephyr Sprite (basic 1 drop flyer, but a 1 drop flyer is good on its own)
  • Wydwen, the Biting Gale (3/3 flyer with an ability that gives you bounce to save itself or add faerie casts)
  • Wasp Lancer (3 mana faerie flyer, that's it)
  • Vendilion Clique (ok, pricey but a good way to say no to an incoming problem)
  • Thieving Sprite (another way to say no to an incoming threat)
  • Silkbind Faerie (untap effects are very exploitable, although often rare)
  • Silkbind Faerie (easy to be a 3/3 flying vigilance for 3)
  • Ringskipper (this one is kinda mostly filler but could be obnoxious to get rid of)
  • Quickling (ok I think this is a diamond in the rough, 2 mana, get a body AND save a faerie from impending doom)
  • Oona's Gatewarden (i know defender BUT WITHER IS SUCH A GOOD MECHANIC)
  • Nightveil Sprite (2 mana 1/2 flyer that lets you look at the top card of your library, with the option to toss)
  • Mistbind Clique (forcing your opponent into an all out play can create quite the opening, timing it before the end of a phase limits their options on what they can do with all that mana)
  • Metropolis Sprite (With anthems that ability could be nasty, especially since early game flyers are often going unblocked)
  • Knacksaw Clique (I hate myself for suggesting this monster of a card but even if you aren't stealing their cards, your permanently removing them and that's just nasty)
  • Faerie Vandal (drawing 2 cards in a turn isnt hard in blue, so in many cases it will get +1/+1 every turn)
  • Faerie Mechanist (counts as an artifact AND sifts for more)
  • Fae of Wishes (that adventure lets you pull solutions out of thin air)
  • Eye Collector (1/1 with a decent ability)
  • Brazen Borrower (again not budget but another great adventure)
  • Faerie Guidemother (1 drop white with an ok adventure option)
  • Phyrexian Metamorph (clone that can hit artifacts always good, especially in EDH)
ANTHEMS

Other Stuff

My sanity is lasping soooooo…. Also might want to think of artifact / enchantment recovery cards and good ol’ Elixir of Immortality

Also, you probably want to cut Wydwen, the Biting Gale , Shinechaser and even maybe Spell Queller .

Orbs of Warding might be a direct upgrade to Ivory Mask .

Hello, just wanted to say that Cavern Harpy is just better version of Wydwen, the Biting Gale .

rdean14 on Card creation challenge

Create an Oona, Queen of the Fae or Wydwen, the Biting Gale planeswalker, or, if you can come up with lore justification, Vendilion Clique .
