(Community Deck) Vela's Token Noodle Soup

Commander / EDH* Tokens UB (Dimir)

So for a while I've been looking at a stack of a couple thousand rares wondering what on earth I should make with it. So many options, but no clear winner. BUT THEN IT OCCURRED TO ME!! Why not ask tapped out?

The initial list was options for my commander. I chose Vela the Night-Clad thanks to her being both nontraditional as well as me having access to a large variety of swarm cards to support her. I had two players suggest her as well, and they were the first two to post as well which helped aim me in her direction.

And then came the cuts. While I had lots of people throwing suggestions towards me, I had stated I hadn't intended spending a dime and that I would post what I had and they could suggest drops. Sadly, I seemed to still be getting more suggestions then drops. And so when the deck was nearing completion I decided to make the final cuts myself! With that we come to the final process, the best process. I'm now open to spending, and with that open to additions. My original choices were from my rares, so keep an eye out for some great commons and uncommons that may may synergize well as I have not had many suggestions under those realms.

What do I want? Something stupid! Something casual! Something fun! Any suggestion is welcome, but please say what needs dropped as this is a community deck. I will not execute a change until someone else also agrees with you, myself included. HOWEVER! If two or more people are saying to make the change and I disagree I will switch out the cards because this is a community deck. My effort with this deck was not to make my own deck but create a community effort deck for the flavor, and so I don't consider my ideas having any more weight than my viewers.

With that said I will state the format for comments I desire. First state what you think needs added and what should be dropped and why. Second state any above suggestions you may agree with. You can elaborate if you want, but is not necessary. Finally please add to the discussion as you like. Maybe you want to advertise a deck of yours, or perhaps you have a question about a card interaction. Maybe there's a combo you see that you want to make sure I'm aware of. Go ahead. However free advertising of your decks without adding to the discussion or giving drop/adds will be deleted as well as card suggestions without drops.

Honorable mentions to Vorel of the Hull Clade and Gwafa Hazid, Profiteer. If I had been willing to deconstruct some decks these both may have very well been my commander.

Thanks to Kozelek, Shields, and vault. These three helped me decide who the commander would be and the former two helped form some great ideas for the other optional commanders.

Thanks to Kozelek, user:Shields, and graveyardwaltz. These four helped make cuts and formed much of the base deck. Special thanks to PayOneLife who not only posted the biggest post for what were definite keeps but since his ideas for the deck were the most kept in mind when I took it upon myself to make the final cuts.

Thanks to Kozelek and user:Shields once again (these guys really like posting on my walls!) for helping choose a title for my deck. I went with one of Kozelek's suggestions since it was short enough that I could tag community deck in front of it without running out of characters.

THIS DECK IS IN YOUR HANDS NOW!!
