Now that we have had a fair amount of cards from commander legends spoiled, which commanders do you think you are going to build and how?

In all seriousness, I want to wait until every legend is spoiled to even think about brewing. And I'm still finding new and exciting commanders to build around from past sets, so I haven't quite caught up with the present yet. Like, Tetzimoc and Yosei are demanding to be built around, I gotta do that first!

Sorry for totally not contributing to the conversation :/

Well, I'd say Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh was totally meant to be abused with Cloudstone Curio and repeating ETB triggers.

I’m converting my Erebos, Bleak-Hearted over to Tevesh Szat and the new Sengir. I’m also thinking about building Yurlok.

Fun fact: your red cards can now deal 18x their original damage, PLUS an additional 36 damage. This is why the damage multiplying creature and planeswalker (both with partner) are my second and third favorite cards spoiled so far.

I know this technically doesn't count but ill just run it in a Maralen of the Mornsong deck with tons of tutors and ways to recur it and basically play archenemy where they cant win. Mono black stax lol.

I_Want_To_PlayAllTheDecks Wow that is actually a broken combo. I would hate to be one of your opponents against that deck.

Make sure you include Scheming Symmetry! Also, have fun casting your fav card into the opponent’s fetchland! It’s your forest now!

I knowwwwww its so awesome, I just brewed up a legacy deck to abuse the hell out of it, I don't want to post it here to take away from the discussion but its on my page.

I've already brewed Malcolm and Breeches. (I absolutely love Breeches as a character)
Named the deck Stuff and Sundries and Munitions. I just don't know how to link decks.
I'm interested in Liesa. I may transform krav//regna into her.

I’ll have to be cryptic with my response as there’s a current gap between those pesky leaks and the actual spoiled list, but the future of Boros commander actually looks bright...

Now with Jeweled Lotus I want to build Kamahl, Heart of Krosa because if I go turn 1 dork into turn two cultivate/kodama’s reach/another dork I can play a turn three lotus into kamahl which Is arguably pretty busted. Also I can go a t1 sol ring into a t2 Ancient Tomb With jeweled lotus for a t2 kamahl. Sounds pretty epic to me.

I'm also wanting to build Malcom and Breeches.
COMMANDERS AND COMBAT DAMAGE AND PLUNDER!

I am not sure why Kediss, Emberclaw Familiar isn't being talked about more as both a voltron enabler and a way to make red damage more viable. Many partner commanders have triggers that result from dealing damage to opponents and Kediss, Emberclaw Familiar can also make it easier to get multiple triggers.

Liesa, Shroud of Dusk or Thalisse, Reverent Medium. Two great commanders for my favorite color pairing.

I actually need to update. The Black partner planeswalker, partnered with its green counterpart that I’m assuming exists. That will make this the first time that you can build Golgari planeswalkers, partnering Umori. Previously you had to run red and have Lord Windgrace as your commander. I might have to wait a few sets for more planeswakers to come out, but it’ll be worth it. I’ll lose an infinite combo with Rowan Kenrith, but it’ll be worth it because it will be the purest form!

VampDemigod says... #21
OMG I JUST REALIZED THAT WITH UMORI YOU CAN HAVE IT SELECT LEGENDARY! I’m not wrong, right?

VampDemigod the only pw in commander legends are black and red. The other mythic partner commanders are creatures.
This is from Gavin but I am unsure if it was a tweet, good morning magic, or article this week. So sorry I can't back it up with the written proof.

I really want to play Archelos, Lagoon Mystic. Good ol' Master Oogway is a shaman, so he can easily wear Thornbite Staff.

I had high hopes 8 years ago or so, (after certain events changed the order of things) that they would have printed a more "synergestic tribal version" of colfenor the last yew...but I was mildly dissapointed at what we got. I think if I can secure a copy of Belbe for my karador deck, I may modify it to a more aristocrat sub-theme just for spicing things up. The thing is...in the last 2 years...I have more than TEN sets to do a catch-up of selected cards for my remaining decks...Wizards is just churning out too many sets and products for me to even remember what the goodies are. I mean...look at jewelled lotus right???

Araumi of the Dead Tide! I've already got a super fun list that I'm adoring, I'd love thoughts on it...

Kwain, Itinerant Meddler
Absolutely nobody seems to be as hyped about this card as I am. Everyone's like, "I guess its an okay group hug Commander..." and I'm just like, "No, no... its the BEST group hug Commander."
I've been toying with a group hug deck focused on comboing with Smothering Tithe and "Everyone Draws X" spells like Prosperity where you group hug everyone to death, but I've never had the right Commander for it... UNTIL NOW.
Also, the addition of Hullbreacher as an additional backup copy of Smothering Tithe is just THE BEST.

I've been waiting for another Krark for years, and he's finally here! Krark, the Thumbless can do some crazy things, and imagine if you can you get multiple triggers/copies of the same spell! Oh, wait, the legend rule: you can only have one Krark.
And then I saw Sakashima of a Thousand Faces.
Without further ado: You Can't Spell Kaos Without K(rark). Enjoy
Massacar says... #2
I've already started drafting.
I've got a Yurlok list done, as well as a Krark/Vial Smasher list up.
I have been maintaining a "deck" that is just a list of cards as they get spoiled for me to make decks out of.
Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools (haven't decided who to partner with yet)
Kodama of the East Tree (partner with Esior, familiar)
Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh/Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith or Kodis, Emberclaw Familiar
Liesa, Shroud of Dusk
Averna, Blooming Chaos
