I've always liked interaction decks better than straight-up aggro decks or monster ramp drop decks. I find this makes the game more stable, and the deck less one-trick reliant.

I've focused on commander interaction for board clear and supporting open-ended combos that can trigger off multiple cards. I'm always worried about the commander being exiled, so she's there for the "best case scenario" only.
