Hey everyone,

I'm looking into making a Vendilion Clique Multiplayer EDH deck, but my friends say that he sucks, but I also hear online that he is good, and I don't know who to listen to. If he is good, I'll want to use him as a general. What kind of deck does he run? Tempo? Aggro? Control? Also, what are some staple cards that clique uses?

Thanks for the help!

The main thing I've heard about Vendilion Clique is a combo with him and Tunnel Vision. But I haven't really looked into him much at all. I'd guess he'd be a good combo/control general.

He is good, but not in multiplayer. A Vendilion Clique deck normally would run a lot of counterspells and other one for one cards, keeping the board clear and slowly killing them through commander damage. It is impossible to do that in a multiplayer format though, so there are stronger options such as Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir that you could look into.

Depends. He's not as good now after the tuck rules changes (which your playcircle may or may not play with), because before he ran a lot of bounce and then you'd cast him to tuck a commander. Nowadays, I'd almost consider that you've got better options as a mono-U commander (Arcanis the Omnipotent, Talrand, Sky Summoner, etc.) instead of Clique.

What happened with the tuck rule changes?
