If you've ever taken a look at any of my other decks you might know by now that I love control and turbofog. I might be wrong, but this sure seems like a control and turbofog deck as far as I can tell.

First off I'm not sure what to use as a commander for this deck. I do know I am going to keep this deck in the Bant colors and don't feel like splashing Black or Red into this deck. Currently I'm considering a few things:

Phelddagrif ... (What I am currently using.) The game plan for this deck at the moment is to simply dump all my extra mana into Phelddagrif 's first ability before the end of the turn before mine, which will allow me to stall out the game by making my opponents remain at a decent life total and preventing anyone from losing game. As the game progresses I will appear as a "friend" to the other players while there boards grow making them appear as the "threats" to each other.

Treva, the Renewer ... The first thing this deck might be weaker to is tokens, if I can get to late game and my opponents still have tons of tokens and I ever get to swing in with treva I will be able to gain tons of life which will gain me at least a few extra turns everything time treva gets in for damage.

Angus Mackenzie ... Simply an option only for 1 v 1's when Angus's ability simply turns into pay 3 mana and tap him to take an extra turn

Derevi, Empyrial Tactician ... A good mana sink that will allow me to screw up my opponents' mana bases, buying me some time in the long run.

Rubinia Soulsinger ... Just an annoying card for opponents to play against, discourages opponents from playing creature based combos, big fatties, etc.
