This is my version of Kaalia of the Vast

As with most decks using this commander, the theme is all about cheating baddies out. I made sure there were plenty of ways to do this even if Kaalia gets locked down somehow or targeted with a lot of hate.

Below I have the deck split out into some easy to digest categories, with individual card descriptions incoming as I get some spare time. As I play more and make changes I will do my best to keep the primer updated. If you have any recommendations for adds I would love to hear them. I am trying to keep the creature color balance roughly 50/25/25 demons/angels/dragons fwiw.
