Commander Deck Help forum

The point of this thread is twofold.
1). Post your deck's colors and what its supposed to do. (Feel free to post a link)
2). Suggest a name for either your deck or another person's deck.
My deck is a 
Ruhan of the Fomori commander deck. It revolves around combining cards like Sphere of Safety and Fumiko the Lowblood to force opponents to attack each other.

(Also, not sure if this is entirely the right place to post this thread.
If I'm doing this wrong let me know...)
This probably would be better off in the Commander forum. This is more for people looking for help on deckbuilding and specific decklists.
I like the thread idea though. Can we post decks if we just want to show off? I made this up a few days ago and I'm still feeling proud of it:
My Anvil is Ready... Playtest

On a more serious note, what do you think of this name:
Money Can Buy Me Souls Playtest
Commander / EDH

I like it, but I'm not sure if it captures what the deck is supposed to do very well (sacrifice for profit), and I'm also worried not enough people will get the reference. In all the time I've had the deck though, I've failed to come up with anything better.

Now that I think about it, you could also use some deckbuilding advice:
I had the same thought of using those prison and forced attack effects together (Gisela, Blade of Goldnight as the commander), but it turns out it doesn't always work too well. There's a rule about combat that if a creature is forced to attack, but there's a cost that's required for it to attack, then it's controller isn't forced to pay that cost, even if they are able to.
Which means, if you're not playing with the split attacks rule (attacking player A with creature 1 and player B with creature 2 (It is actually optional.)), then your opponents are allowed to declare you as the defending player and decline to pay the cost for each of their creatures, thus keeping them from attacking.

Well this thread is going nowhere. Maybe this would get more attention if it was in the Commander forum.
Care to move this Epochalyptik?

An example would be the name "Are you Daretti for this?" for a deck with Daretti, Scrap Savant as it's commander.
