Mono-B Griselbrand. This deck is built using French rules http://www.duelcommander.com/

The idea behind this deck is simple, land a Griselbrand, generate card advantage, win. The beauty behind this deck lies in the power of its general. Once he hits, you can draw 7 cards anytime you want. This makes it very hard for most control decks, which tend to answer things with 1-for-1 removal, as it is impossible for most decks to keep up with the card advantage generated by Griselbrand. This deck contains many powerful cards, some of which I'll cover here.

Lion's Eye Diamond. This card is unplayable in many scenarios, but in our deck, with access to 5 other mana, we can use this (at the cost of whatever is left in our hand) to power out a Griselbrand sooner than we should be able to. In a pinch, also, we can cast a tutor, hold priority and activate Lion's Eye Diamond as a way out of an otherwise unwinnable scenario (tutor for Toxic Deluge to wipe the board for example)

Infernal Darkness is a total lockout against a lot of decks. This card is more powerful than Blood Moon, at least as long as you can pay the upkeep. Of course, our general helps us with that quite nicely. Othertimes, we use this to keep blue decks off their counterspells for long enough to cast Griselbrand, or deal with problematic cards in their hand. This is game over for a lot of decks.

Other than some of the standout cards, we see a LOT of redundancy in this deck. Lots of mana rocks, discard, draw, and tutors. Everything in the deck is designed to make your opponents life harder, or make your life easier. No fluff here.

The deck wins via attacking with G-Bacon a few times, or the Leyline Helm combo to wrap things up quicker. Any suggestions are quite welcome, but please dont just give me 5 cards to add without also suggesting some things to cut :)
