Saskia - T/O Build-a-Deck!

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on Feb. 24, 2017, 7:34 a.m. by Boza

Saskia the Unyielding is an awesome commander. But I have no clue how to build her. So I am requesting your help.

All cards in the deck will be suggested by you. The only rules:

No Land Destruction
No infinite combos
No infect

These are the rules in my LGS, so I want to abide by them. I am adding an optional #4 and #5:

On a budget - cheaper cards will have an advantage, but if a card is really worth it...
No tokens - don't like carrying them around, but if a card is really worth it...

I am hoping we end up with more than 100 cards so that there will be community trimming.

Is group hate acceptable?

True Conviction turns an unblocked Saskia by herself into a 24 life swing each combat.

I currently have a combo-focused Nekusar and a control-focused Scaly fish council-woman from Ravnica.

I want to build an aggro deck to complete the trifecta that is not blue, but have run into a wall when trying to brew with Saskia, which is the commander I want to have.

Anything not on the above list is acceptable. I think some amount of group hate is acceptable and necessary.

Please make suggestions on the deck itself, makes it much easier to incorporate a larger list.

I know you said no tokens but Nacatl War-Pride and Rhys the Redeemed is a stupid fun aggressive combo. Play with Cathars' Crusade for added dumbness.

Blade of Selves makes all your etb abilities even more dangerous. Equip cost of is a bit painful but still worth it on the right creatures.

Deus of Calamity - Not really MLDXenagos, God of Revels Ajani, Valiant Protector - That creature search is solid Sorin, Solemn Visitor - mass lifelink, especially with myriad creatures can make for massive life swings... Haste-heavy builds seem to be a necessity to her.Signal the Clans pretty fun, low budget creature search; I like making another player do the random choice sortof like; "pick your poison"Soltari Visionary
