Spell Counter

Instant

Counter target spell.

Gotcha - Whenever an opponent says "Spell" or "Counter," you may say "Gotcha!" If you do, return Spell Counter from your graveyard to your hand.

I think the reason there is a lack of decks with Dovin Baan as the commander is because he's not a legal commander :P (I know you probably have house rules in your playgroup, I'm being facetious. Balance and Spell Counter is also not legal with the default ban list).

Have you considered Oath of Gideon to have him come in closer to ult? The Chain Veil might also help, but can backfire if he is removed. Personally, I would also consider cutting a few lands for ramp like Azorius Signet and Wayfarer's Bauble. You do have a lot of cantrips to filter, but 40 land is a bit much for how low your curve is.

Read the Flavor texts in order:

Double Play, Double Dip, Double Deal, Double Take, Double Cross.

Now read these:

Creature Guy, Save Life, Spell Counter, Deal Damage, Kill! Destroy!

Hi everyone!

Long time commander player here but casually we happened to buy planechase anthology, a few games of that got our group in the mood for some casual 60 card fun decks.

I have always enjoyed generally dumb deck ideas and fun card effects so was thinking about having green, blue and white deck with some of the more fun (but not unmanageable) unhinged cards.

Some definite includes for fun would include the "Gotcha!" cards.( Creature Guy , Number Crunch, Spell Counter ) AWOL gets a huge chuckle from me also.

I've been toying with the idea of just making 5 colour but I highly doubt its feasable to spread a mana base that far in 60 card. I also have a soft spot for "Ach! Hans, Run!" and Deal Damage making me want to splash red.

I'm generally looking for recommendations of what cards you could recommend or which ones would be possible (and fun) to build a deck around (too used to planning around singleton and legendary creatures)

Thanks in advance! :)
