Krasis Splicing Chamber
Artifact
~ does not untap during your untap step. Whenever a creature dies, untap ~ and put a counter on it if that creature had Flying. The same is true for First strike, Double strike, Deathtouch, Haste, Hexproof, Indestructible, Lifelink, Reach, Trample, Menace, and Vigilance.
: You may move a counter from ~ onto target creature you control.
"Our hasty agreement with those muck-rakers from the Golgari have provided quite a diverse number of biological samples. Note: remind all the Gyre Clade of the risks of falling into the splicing chamber. We have no need of wasted talent." - Prime Speaker Vannifar
Create a mythic, but is still vastly underwhelming. For Example, Archangel's Light

ShiltonCDXX The Standard card pool has never been all Standard playable cards. Competitive magic has historically only used a fraction of all available cards in the format, because most cards just aren't good enough. If the Standard card pool wasn't "diluted" with cards like Esika, God of the Tree Flip, it would be "diluted" with cards like Archangel's Light . Just as mythic, even less playable, back in the "good old days" of Standard focusing on Standard.
WotC didn't want EDH to take over, the players did. WotC tried to jump that hype train with Brawl, and when that didn't really took off, they announced 2020 to be the 'Year of Commander' because we like it that much. They're just offering supply to the demand we're showing.
Commander doesn't lend itself for organised play, it is by definition the casual format where fun overrules results and standings. When you organise an EDH tournament, you're rewarding breaking the format with degenerate, unfun and fast win conditions, and it will get stale real fast if cEDH is the main promoted way of playing Commander for the general public. Plus you'll price out new players really fast that way, chasing them out of LGSs. CommandFest areas at MagicFest tournaments was a genius move to attract more players to the big happening of Grand Prix tournaments, but making it the main event would probably be the worst possible decision, offending competitive players with a casual format as headline, while the casual crowd doesn't care at all about who's the best.
And I'm sorry, RambIe but only including the powerful cards as buy-a-box promo's and discontinuing the commander products would actually be insane. Having to buy a full box of a new Standard set, just for a chance of a limited supply promo card that you need for the biggest and most popular format in the world is almost extortion, that would drive up the price on the secondary market through the roof, the controversy would be equal to or greater than the Walking Dead Secret Lair.
The Commander precons are widely regarded as the best product line WotC releases each year. They're an excellent way for new players to step into the game, while offering plenty for experienced players to still get excited about. To stop printing them is like McDonald's to stop selling fries, because "they're just a burger restaurant right?"
And what did Collector Boosters do wrong? There's no new cards in there, only reprints that look nicer, or at least different from the regular cards in the set. That's not a "fix" for any problem, that's offering your players variety, without adding any cards to any format. Literally, a way to make sure everyone gets what they want, without any format suffering more than just releasing the main set would cause.

202 cards, a single copy of Battle of Wits as your win condition. Every single non-blue and White land that enters tapped; the rest Wastes. A way to convert the land's mana into Blue mana. Sacrifice engines to put everything on the field graveyard after you resolve Battle of Wits, and Archangel's Light to shuffle your graveyard into your library.

How is that Serra a bulk mythic? Just with her first ability, you get 8 mana worth of value (heck it is better Archangel's Light , since you can choose how many to shuffle back, making it even more insane - if you have 10 cards in your yard, you can gain 20 life per turn, while working towards an ultimate!).
Regardless, bulk mythic:
Mandrake, the Deformed
Legendary Creature - Human Drake
Flying
~'s power and toughness are equal to the number of instants and sorceries in your graveyard.
When ~ enters the battlefield, reveal your hand. Draw cards equal to the number of creature cards revealed this way, then discard that many.
Star/Star
////////////////////////////////
Make a bulk mythic that costs 3 or less mana. As an example, WOTC just made one that costs no mana - Mox Tantalite .

Serra, Mother of the Plane
Legendary Planeswalker - Serra
+1: You gain 2 life for each card in your graveyard, then you may shuffle any number of cards in your graveyard into your library.
-2: You get an emblem with, "At the beginning of each end step, if you gained life this turn, create a 4/4 white Angel creature token with flying and vigilance."
-9: You get an emblem with "Permanents you control have indestructible." and "You and permanents you control have hexproof"
5
This would be similar to Chandra Ablaze , as the -2 would be good, but still not amazing. The first ability is narrow, and can often do nothing.
-2: Angelic Accord
-9: Avacyn, Angel of Hope + Shalai, Voice of Plenty
Although Chandra Ablaze easily reaches her solid ultimate, this Serra would be a hard task to reach it, but a better reward, also it fits its own strategy better. Burn doesn't want a 6 CMC walker. Control-lifegain doesn't mind a 6 CMC planeswalker, also until Chandra, this one likely protects herself well.
More bulk mythics!
sakuraPLAN on Cardcaptor Sakura Flavour Deck

Here is why I have chosen these cards: Child of Alara - This is my Commander - This is Sakura. Alara reads "When Child of Alara is put into a graveyard from play, destroy all nonland permanents. They can't be regenerated. Now we all know how much it sucks to have to worry about the threat of a board wipe being on the field - so I have chosen to put 1 restriction on Alara. In the series during The Final Judgement, Sakura essentially has her memories wiped and life as she knows it as a Cardcaptor never existed. This only ever happens to Sakura ONCE. For this reason, I am putting a restriciton on her, that I can only choose for her to go to the Graveyward ONCE per game. This means timing of this is crucial. Other reasons for why I have chosen Alara and the Commander: - She is a Child, like Sakura was when she encountered the cards - You will need recursion as a key element in your deck building to ensure you can continue to use Alara. Sakura always has access to her cards, so having the ability to pull things back from the grave fits in perfectly with that aspect.
Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow - This is Shadow. Has shadow in the name as well as gives you the ability to draw a card and have your opponents lose life based on its CMC
Voice of All - Voice. The cards title is the essence of what the Voice Card does.
Tishana, Voice of Thunder - Thunder(1). I chose this card 1) because it has Thunder in the name but also because the artwork is of Tishana who is controlling the 'thunder' (but is actually water) Tishana would be Sakura. This card allows you to have no max hand size - which isnt an essential element to this deck but again- access to all cards. She allows you to draw a card and her 'Thunder' is as strong as you can make it. Just as it would be is CCS.
Thunderbolt - Thunder(2). Some cards are too hard to not have in when they fit so perfectly with a CCS card. This card speaks for itself as to why I would choose it as Thunder
Soul Manipulation - Illusion(1) My first thoughts when i though about Illusion as a MTG was making something appear as something it isn't - Like a Morph card. Another thought I had, which i feel fits more correctly with CCS is that Illusion would appear in the disguse of what that person feels. Manipulating the space in front of them so see something else. This just lead me on key word search for Manipulation and this seemed to be a reasonable result. Also allows for graveyard recursion.
Illusionary Servant Illusion(2). Has Illusion in the name. Is essentially just another creature.
Maze of Shadows Maze. Has maze in the name and allows for a 'Fog' on target creature.
Etali, Primal Storm Storm. Has storm in the name, is a big creature. Storm is an aggressive Card. Etali, feels just that. In the series Saoryan became the first Cardcaptor to control Storm, essentially taking the card away from Sakura. So, Etali, Primal Storm, will take others cards away from them.
Mirror Mockery Mirror. Mirror had always been used to make a copy of Sakura (until Clear Card) but Mirror was never the real Sakura. So I searched for something that would create of copy of a creature that wouldnt become a permanent. Essentially this would need to be used on a card with an ETB trigger or with Haste.
Blood Mist Mist (1). Has mist in the name. Originally i was thinking of a creature that had deathtouch as everything Mist touches gets destroyed. Instead I went with a card that has Mist in the name and allows for Double Strike.
Dread Return Return. I know from the start that any of the Time element related CCS Cards would have be graveyard related. I felt this was the best of my options and has Return in the card name.
Dragon-Style Twins Twin. CCS Twin Card are 2 twins who fight in unison. This creature has Twin in the Title, The art is of twins about to engage in combat and has Double Strike.
Valley Dasher Dash. Dash is a super fast card that panics when scared or flees. Valley Dasher has Haste and has to attack each turn if able. I think that is a pretty close similarity in the fact that this card is "always on the go"
Sandcrafter Mage Sand. Art work is of a Mage casting Sand Magic. That alone fits in the CCS.
Carpet of Flowers Flower. Im not gonna lie originally i was going to go with Flower / Flourish simply because the card is called Flower however, Carpet of Flowers allows for colouring fixing if used against an island deck. An essential element in a 5 colour deck.
Pit Fight Fight. I always knew what style of card I wanted for Fight. This seemed like a reasonable option.
Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest Silent. Has silent in the name. In the art Shu Yun is in a temple. A quiet place. Just like the museum was in the series. This card has the ability to allow additional damage.
Snowhorn Rider Snow. Besides from running One snow covered land. This seemed like the next best option.
Agony Warp Little. There are no LEGAL cards with little in their name. The little card is known for making things smaller. Whilst my BIG card does not currently do this in reverse. I felt Agony Warp was a good alternative.
Wall of Wood Wood. A gentle card that does essentially nothing but defend. My RAIN card was originally going to be a card that allows walls to attack as if they have no defender but I am not running enough walls in this deck for it to be worth while. instead I went with once that could be used with Wall of Wood being on the field or any other card.
Angelic Shield Shield. Makes your creatures tougher- giving them more protection. Allows for Graveyard recursion.
Ashiok, Dream Render Dream. Has dream in the name. Looks somewhat similar to the CCS Dream Card Art. Allows for Graveyard control.
Drana's Emissary Sweet. There are NO CARDS with Sweet in their titles. Sweet only appears in flavour text. Out of all the options. This seems the most beneficial.
Goldenglow Moth Glow. Only card with glow in its name. it is similar to CCS Glow Card and allows for life gain. A gentle card that is really - Just a 'pretty' card just like in CCS.
Spirit Loop Loop. Has loop in the name. Allows for life gain and the card itself, essentially in undying... just like a loop.
Luminescent Rain Rain. The only card with Rain in its title that seemed some what in resemblance to the CCS Card and could still work with WOOD.
Avenger of Zendikar Create. Create is a card that creates creatures. Avenger seemed to be a good fit. Avenger being the book and the plant tokens being the creatures that Create makes. This card will be changed out for Deep Forest Hermit(UNRELEASED) which creates squirrels and works with your graveyard.
Sword of the Animist Sword. Allows you to attached a sword to target creature and allows for ramping.
Archangel's Light Light. Originally I wanted a card that was similar to Dark- just like in the series. It was hard to find any that that worked that included the words light and dark. There is the potential that the 2 cards could become One single card in future, as in the series the 2 cards must always be used in unison. This card has light in the name and has graveyard recursion.
Erase Erase. REMOVAL. No further explanation needed.
Floating Shield - Float. Has float in the name. Allows you to choose WHITE as the protection colour without it being removed from enchanted creature.
Pathway Arrows Arrow. We never for to see much about how Arrow works as a card when being controlled. But we do know that it shoots arrows. So, this card has Arrow in the name, the artwork is of a bow and arrow and is an equipment allowing equipped creature to tap to deal a damage to another creature - almost as if it were shooting an arrow.

The first ability combines her future sight with her fateshifting abilities, also, but bringing back old cards, it's more retrospective.
The Second ability is about her spark igniting, which she saw coming, so I think she is particularly appropriate for interacting with a token of herself (I mean it's a phenomenal blocker for the Planeswalker.
The Third is a fixed Archangel's Light , a card which I would love it cost less, like , maybe, and effected all graveyards. Also it wouldn't be OP as an instant, and could be useful against mill. Sorcery-speed isn't really.
