Beginner Red/Black Deck
7 months ago
If you reduce yourself to one copy of each card(except for basic lands, which you can have multiples of), you'll end up with 58 spells(57 if Screeching Bat Flip//Stalking Vampire Flip is counted twice on your list) and 34 lands. Even if you had a legendary creature in this collection you don't have enough cards for a commander deck. Until you can get the Legendary Creature and the other 7 or 8 cards to fill out a commander deck, my suggestion is to work towards a modern deck.
The only clear cut recommendations I'm making will concern your lands. Having Evolving Wilds, Rakdos Carnarium and Terramorphic Expanse would be great if you were running a landfall deck, but you only have three cards with landfall—and Rakdos Carnarium isn't a land I would put in a non-landfall deck without ways to play additional lands(like Walking Atlas). My suggestion is all three copies of Mortuary Mire and both copies of Rix Maadi, Dungeon Palace. Tapping four lands to make everyone discard may be a lot, but it will prove useful in the late game when you have a lot of mana floating around. You simply activate the land's ability, discard a high mana cost creature card you have, and put it back in your library when you play Mortuary Mire.
Other than that you'll want to build the deck with as much synergy as possible. I suggest organizing all your cards into piles. One for death triggers, one for spells that can benefit from discard, one for ways to sacrifice creatures, one for lifegain and one with creatures that get stronger, and so forth. Look at if/how they interact with each other. One example is how sacrificing Deadbridge Shaman to help pay for Altar's Reap gives you some card advantage.
Another thing to take into account is mana efficiency. If, for example, you're wanting to run a burn deck(Spells that do direct damage), you'll want to consider cards that give off at least one damage for each one mana spent. Lightning Bolt is a good example of mana efficiency, not so much for Explosive Impact.
I hope it's enough for you to get started. Don't be afraid to ask questions if you have any. Thank you for reading me out. May you draw well!
Vallaris on Dream Tribal Commanders
4 years ago
I would love to see an Orzhov commander for bat tribal. Only 22 bat creatures have ever been printed, plus two other creatures that generate bat tokens, and then one artifact that does as well. I really don't know exciting this would be for other players, but for me it would definitely be a dream come true commander for me.
Crossing my fingers like mad for something good from the Innistrad sets later this year. I do have a bat EDH deck, but would like the commander to be an actual bat.
Something that flips, like Screeching Bat Flip that's a bat on one side and a Vampire on the other, but Legendary of course would be cool, but I'd be happy with any Orzhov bat commander. The two non-bat creatures that create bat tokens have white in their identity (a few bats do as well) so WB would definitely be necessary. I feel like Mardu is crossing too much into Vampire territory, and while they have their obvious associations in game, Bats have exclusively been BW so far and I'd like them to keep their identity that way.
As for what this commander would do, anything along the lines of generating a swarm of small fliers, anthem effect for bats, or something with an Exquisite Blood type of effect for bats when they damage a creature, planeswalker, or player, I would be beyond overjoyed. Something really kickass for a super niche tribe.

I think I'd run a playset of Supernatural Stamina and take out Screeching Bat Flip

Possible Rare Additions
With the ideal of 13-card boosters, and accounting for bad math in the previous post, if we end up with 442 or 429 cards in the cube then it is evenly divisible by 13.
Sorted by color in WUBRGC order:
Screeching Bat (uncommon but flavorful)
Lambholt Elder Flip (uncommon)
6 W, 5 U, 6 B, 8 R, 9 G, 2 C.
Needs a bit of balancing. There are undoubtedly a few rares in my collection I didn't include. Also could add a few duplicates of uncommons that are already in the cube.
In addition, I've collected the dual and most of the utility lands from Innistrad and Dark Ascension...
Clifftop Retreat, Hinterland Harbor, Isolated Chapel, Sulfur Falls, Woodland Cemetery, Moorland Haunt, Nephalia Drownyard, Stensia Bloodhall.
I may add Kessig Wolf Run and Gavony Township, finances permitting.
