I recently built a deck with a simple, obvious goal in mind- slap you in the face with my commander until you die. Enter Zahid, Djinn of the Lamp. Oh, I thought, a nice little way to work around my commander tax! Turn five, I'm swinging for 5 commander dmg in the air! Lovely!

I spent a happy few hours fiddling around and sorting things out, and cobbled together a passible fascimily of a Blue deck, centered around Zahid.

And then my friend informed me, no, commander tax just gets tacked on to that, so, here we are.
