SaberTech on Help creating a commander deck

Hi Angelsprout, welcome to the game! Starting out with Commander will be a little tough in the beginning because it is a format that benefits a lot from having a large collection but cards don't rotate out like they do in Standard so you get longer use out of the cards that you buy. Your deck will improve over time as you slowly pick up new cards for it. The commander that you are starting with also has black and green, which I think are the best colours to start off with in Commander because a lot of the good cards in those colours that you'll want can be used in lots of other decks, so I think that you are off to a good start! The game has lots of support cards for +1/+1 counter and sacrifice strategies too.
Honestly, it's a little hard to help with the deck when we don't know all the cards you have at this point. My suggestion would be to watch a few youtube videos on building commander decks so that you understand the sorts of cards that a commander deck needs. After that, try to make a list of your own and post it with a link to it in this thread. It doesn't matter how good or bad the starting deck list is. Just having a starting point of some sort will make it a lot easier for everyone to make suggestions to help you build the best deck with the cards that you have, and maybe even offer some budget options for cards you could buy to quickly upgrade for cheap.
If you search "The Command Zone, Commander Deck Building Template for the New Era" on youtube, that video will give you a good starting point.
The video "Felothar, Dawn of the Abzan EDH Deck Tech" by New Horizons MTG will also give you a good idea of the sorts of cards you would want in a Felothar deck. It doesn't matter if you have the cards that are suggested in the video, just do your best to put in similar sorts of cards from your collection into your deck list and people here can help you work out options from there.
Since we at least know the cards in the 2023 Starter Kit, I think that Dusk Legion Duelist, Siege Veteran, Storm the Seedcore, Boon-Bringer Valkyrie, Silverback Elder, In the Trenches, Cooped Up, and Broken Wings would all work as decent cards to include from the start.

Depending on how aggro you want to be, maybe check out cards with Batalion eg. Boros Elite
If you are not opposed expanding the color base, I would consider adding . Boros has some great soldier tribal cards like Assemble the Legion, Swiftblade Vindicator, Skyknight Vanguard and Blade Historian. Plus Tajic is badass
However sticking here are some cards that might be worth a spot, Field Marshal, Commander Eesha, Endless Horizons, Valiant Veteran, Mentor of the Meek, Crusader of Odric, Myrel, Shield of Argive, Siege Veteran, or Preeminent Captain
