Dr. General Tazri Jumblemorph?!?

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on Dec. 11, 2017, 9:10 a.m. by Rzepkanut

Is there a better commander to enable a host/augment deck? Its unfortunate that Dr. Julius Jumblemorph is only 2 colors, he is gonna have to be tutored up all the time in order to play 5 colors. Thats why General Tazri seemed good, she can tutor him up reliably, is cheap money wise, and is 5 colors. Any better ideas?? Any medium good ideas?? Anything??

I think this is the best direction to go with him if you want 5C. Be sure to run plenty of ways to recur him from the graveyard should he die if he will be necessary to the deck to function (MagicalHacker - List of All Recursion Cards). I'd aim for 14 cards off of that list, some of which can do other stuff too, like Volrath's Stronghold being a part of the manabase.

Mistveil Plains is also great for this. Awesome idea, by the way!

You could also use Sliver Overlord in the same way.

Hello everyone! Got some responses...

  • MagicalHacker: Thanks for the great lists! I've been a fan for quite a while. I agree lots of graveyard recursion seems important here. Not going to be able to include Volrath's Stronghold for budget reasons but its a great idea.

  • Pieguy396: Thanks for the suggestion, seems like a good one. I especially like that it's a land and won't really take up a slot in the deck (just like the Volrath's Stronghold...except not as good lol).

  • enpc: Yeah I thought of the Sliver Overlord too, but it's quite a bit more money and more mana too. This being an un-deck I'm even less excited to get pricey cards for it. Also I was thinking that the pump effect on General Tazri should be cool with Arcane Adaptation or Conspiracy...something which the Sliver doesn't really do either.

Thanks again for all the ideas everyone!! I've been busy brewing version 1.0 on my phone since I posted about this. When it's ready for outside input I'll post a link to it here.
