Most of my Commander decks have been "modify a pre-con," but I wanted to try to build something from scratch. Digging through my box, I found a copy of Ruric Thar and thought "this could be interesting to play with." My first thought was to use a lot of creatures that can also be spells (stuff with Bloodrush or Channel, for example). Most of that ended up getting cut, because the Bloodrush benefits just weren't good enough for multiplayer, imo.

Instead, what I ended up doing was focusing on increasing my land drops (since I'm not running mana rocks), using creatures with repeatable abilities or strong ETB effects, and finding creatures that will let me return things from the graveyard. Other than that, the gameplan is "punch faces until they stop being faces" and "punish people for playing spells."

This is the first attempt, so any advice is welcome.
