Also replaced one Talara's Bane with a Nihil Spellbomb. Ostracize does better as a creature hate spell and is cheaper, but I'm keeping on in just in case of Stompy match-ups. Needed more graveyard hate it seemed, as the one didn't really do well.

Update #1- Took out a Gitaxian Probe and the Crimson Wisps Since I felt it had plenty of card draw and put in some Lightning Bolts. Also added a sideboard, which will probably change with what I play against in the future. Ostracize and Talara's Bane are in there for Tron matchups, Duress and Borrowed Hostility for Izzet meatches, and Echoing Decay for any token strategies, or some Delver/Izzet stuff.

I wouldn't make them tribal decks. I would just pick a "commander" that reflects that colors greatest strengths. You might at well make the format modern as well if its just going to be the set 5 decks.

Here are some Ideas for my commanders and their edicts.

W- Go wide Odric, Lunarch Marshal, or Odric, Master Tactician with some tiny fellows that all have cool keyword abilities and a few angels

W edicts: Luminesce, Celestial Purge, Surge of Righteousness

U- Control Talrand, Sky Summoner, or Baral, Chief of Compliance. Just load the deck with all instants and sorceries and a few sphinx as win cons

U edicts Encase in Ice, Flashfreeze

B- Midrange Gonti, Lord of Luxury, Yahenni, Undying Partisan. just play a bunch of mean and treacherous things and sprinkle with demons

B edicts: Deathmark, Talara's Bane, Self-Inflicted Wound

R Tempo "aggro wont work in a 5 player game" Grenzo, Havoc Raiser, Lovisa Coldeyes, kind of aggro but with more card draw and removal with some good dragons too,

R edicts: Combust, Rending Volley

G Big ol' Ramp Rishkar, Peema Renegade, Silvos, Rogue Elemental, just get lots of mana, defiantly include some hydras.

G edicts Display of Dominance, Great Sable Stag, Mold Adder (I kno they're creatures but green gets an exception)

I think Stromgald Crusader or even Hand of Cruelty are slightly better than Knight of Infamy.

Tainted Field isn't legal in modern: Try Caves of Koilos instead.

A few other cards that may work but which you'd need to make room for are Gaze of Justice, Self-Inflicted Wound, and Talara's Bane
