I originally had a standard deck built around Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs. Seeing the printing of Basandra, battle Seraph, and the rotation of zendikar made me think towards EDH. Now I know her ability stacks difficultly with certain cards, but the work around is to focus on combat and the combat step. The job gets done with Crescendo of War and Avatar of Slaughter

Basandra, Total War and War's Toll, with the inclusion of Arcum's Whistle stop mana dorks or other creatures that like to tap down.

Bullwhip takes care of those pesky commander dorks who tutor or sit behind the lines.

I have trouble with the early game.
