Painter's Servant

Artifact Creature — Scarecrow

As Painter's Servant enters the battlefield, choose a colour.

All cards that aren't on the battlefield, spells, and permanents are the chosen colour in addition to their other colours.

Came here to post the same thing. This deck shouldn't have green in it with the commander that it has. Wither a lot of cards need to be removed, or it needs a different Commander.

I think the intention here was maybe that Painter's Servant would make them all black/blue, but that isn't how it works and they would still be green anyway. Not sure why Tapped Out doesn't flag this as not legal though.

I'm making a 5 color combo deck stuffed with ad many infinite or instant win combos as possible. I already have Grindstone/Painter's Servant and Acererak the Archlich/Omniscience. Any fun, salty or wacky combos are welcome

The EDH "committee" had placed Painter's Servant on the Banned list for a while, and then removed it.

Given this is intended to be a sunforger deck, you should consider Swirl the Mists and/or Painter's Servant.

Also, consider how you plan to close out the game. I'm not seeing anything here that I'd consider a wincon. Perhaps try Temur Sabertooth to turn Dockside Extortionist into a win with Aragorn's red spell trigger.

First of all, this deck is fantastic.

Hrm, Pillory of the Sleepless could work in sideboard if they aren't creature heavy enough to warrant 12 fogs. "Didn't get to sleep last night till the morning came around"

Wall of Omens could help to stabilize, and help you find the Heaven's Gate or Jovial Evil that you just can't seem to draw already. "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls."

If a reasonable budget wasn't the name of the game, I'd recommend Painter's Servant in a heartbeat. "I see a red door..."

Caerwyn A number of these things is why I'm just spitballing the idea of this here. Obviously Falling Star and Chaos Orb need to be on my list and they aren't xD There are cards which just don't belong in a game like this. Looking at you Ante...

For Coalition Victory I see little reason for confusion over it referencing a creature's colors rather than identity. We have many cards that reference color all over the place with Bloom Tender and Sisay, Weatherlight Captain to name a few. All the devotion gods. To add to that we also have cards referencing identity with Commander's Plate. These are cards which often see play and I've never once seen anyone confuse a card's colors with the card's color identity.

Iona in the 99 doesn't feel like any more of a major issue to me than Void Winnower. I've played with and against Void Winnower and it has the same result more often than not of Iona. Frankly Void Winnower can be meaner, since it always hits every opponent. There are a number of these hefty lock pieces that come down and then everyone at the table groans or people even concede. I played against Iona when she was legal and I do see with Painter's Servant she has even more potential. I just see other cards that are just as effective and "unfun" not banned.

Suggestions

First although not necessarily required id cut white. First Day of Class will work for counters.

Instead run a Goblin Engineer package with maybe 2 other wincons. Urza's Saga and Grind Stone + Painter's Servant

Additional threats could be Dragon's Rage Channeler card selection and flyer or something that enters with +counters maybe Arcbound Ravager and add a Inkmoth Nexus.

Karn, the Great Creator also provides a win vs other artifact based combo decks.
