Man's Best Friend

Commander / EDH*

Wabbbit


The main idea:

Lately I have been mulling over a white weenie quick win EDH deck. My friend said it wasn't possible in the commander format, so I have set out to prove him wrong. This deck focuses on optimizing the use of quick creatures and anthems to achieve the quickest possible win. It has late game explosiveness from the many boosting auras, which I have put in the deck instead of the usual Isamaru, Hound of Konda artifact theme. Auras sem to give more power, but die much easier. This deck sacrifices late game and board wipe bounce back for speed and efficiency, hoping to get the job done before the opponent has time to think. I believe this deck has the possibility to be very strong, as it can have explosive starts and a turn one commander is simply amazing.

In the early game this deck tries to drop lots of small creatures followed by anthems, then mops up with late game creatures if necessary. Plenty of removal, tokens, and life gain keep it running. It has done pretty well in playtests, as I find that the early game destruction can keep the usually slow commander deck on its toes.


Possible Explosion:

Akroan Horse is a real gem for this deck, and in this section I will go over the possible explosive starts this deck can have. It functions very well and can get itself out of jammed board states by simply dropping more and more creatures, accelerating out of the paused game. I definitely see some weaknesses with the deck, namely lack of draw power, lack of board wipe immunity, and the difficulty of winning by commander damage.

Akroan Horse, as I said, is a gem. Works towards everything this deck wants to do: gives me creatures that can be boosted and doesn't kill any of my creatures when they attack!


Feedback:

like I said, I'm still a novice at EDH and need all the help I can get!

Suggestions

Updates Add

Looking to add in Skullclamp, and Captain of the Watch is the newest gem that I have found for this deck.

Also making a lot of name changes, trying to get more publicity for this deck.
