What would you all say the best two-color combo is for a shapeshifter EDH deck? I'm thinking its either or .
Might put together a shapeshifter deck in the future, so I'm curious as to what you all think. If you have any shapeshifter decks, link them below and I'd love to check them out!

My most casual EDH deck is a Mono blue shapeshifter deck which is almost all clones. It isn't that great, but it's fun to play assuming you don't get destroyed by everyone else (meta dependent) Issa Thassa. I chose Thassa because scry is always useful to find the land drops, however, she is rarely a creature because clones copy the mana symbols.

From your 2 colors, I would go with Blue/Black. Black provides omni tutors, recursion, more card draw and other goodies.

I've been beaten in a multiplayer tourney at my lgs by Sakashima the Impostor. It does work lol

Mistform Ultimus is another interesting mono blue option. Green adds some good shapeshifters; but Profet93 might be right about black for tutors and control

I'm not saying it can't work, but the deck I made so that the poster could reference is mostly casual. Moreover, chances of winning are meta dependent.

I've never seen Mistform Ultimus but it looks really cool.

The Mimeoplasm is the best option for a clone commander.

Check out my Urborg School for Mimes.

I think has the best ones. I only splashed black for Nameless Inversion and Ghoulcaller's Chant which is too good here!

My take... Changeling Bling

Note: all the instants trigger Door of Destinies

Edit: Oh EDH. missed that. nevermind.

I have a simic deck consisting of various shapeshifters and clones, mostly blue. Sakashima mono-blue or even Riku in Temur colors, goes with the copying theme. I just run green for the ramp and the versatility it gives me. Usually run Rashmi, Eternities Crafter or Momir Vig in mine.
