Theater of Horrors

Enchantment

At the beginning of your upkeep, exile the top card of your library.

During your turn, if an opponent lost life this turn, you may play cards exiled with this. (This is a linked ability, linked to the ability in the first paragraph on this card. You may only play lands and cast spells that were exiled by this card if they were exiled via the ability in the first paragraph.)

: This deals 1 damage to target opponent or planeswalker.

I think it’s important to point out: everyone else will be taking damage on your turn, as opposed to on each of their turns like with Nekusar. This is important for cards like Theater of Horrors. This is also relevant for cards like Rakdos, Lord of Riots. I like the card a lot.

FormOverFunction, fair point on both comments and yeah i understand not every deck can have the perfect commander for what it does. Not to say i wont include cards like Theater of Horrors but more so those cards are very common so im just trying to find some more unique examples beyond the usual "exile card from library or deck then cast"

Upon looking at some more recent cards / spoilers from Duskmourn seemed to have something to the effect of what im looking for with Winter, Cynical Opportunistfoil. Multicolor and depending on whats exiled he can recast 1 useful thing and maybe another thing like Eternal Scourge or just take Riftsweeper to get something back later.

Also, though it has black, the first card that came to mind when reading your post was Theater of Horrors. Could be fun, if you end up with black in the deck.

I like the deck. I have been wanting to make an Anhelo deck, but I just have so many decks already that I don't know if I'll have room for another. (Not like that's stopped me before though)

You already have Talrand, The Sky Summoner, but more effects like Metallurgic Summonings, Saruman, the White Hand, Chrome Host Seedshark, and Baral and Kari Zev would be handy. I also feel like a couple of magecraft triggers such as Archmage Emeritus, Deekah, Fractal Theorist, or, if you're willing to pay a little more, Storm-Kiln Artist would be good. Role Reversal is nice because it could steal any permanent, not just creatures if you're willing to get rid of some of your stuff. Cryptic Pursuit seems perfect hear since casting instants and sorceries creates a 2/2 for casualty, but also, when you sacrifice it, if it was an instant or sorcery, you get another card! A 3 for 1 seems like a pretty good deal. Also, your mana fixing needs a little work. The signets (Arcane Signet, Rakdos Signet, Dimir Signet, and Izzet Signet) are really cheap, so I would replace those for the 3 mana rocks. Creating colorless mana is pretty detrimental, especially if you're trying to cast spells with multiple mana symbols.

Some stuff I would replace. Blood Tyrant is too bulky since it doesn't benefit from casting/copying spells. Imminent Doom is a little too situational for my liking. There are times when you might not have the right cmc to trigger the doom. Theater of Horrors isn't really that great because it's really mana intensive for the payoff. Prince of Thralls is just too pricey for the curve. Prismari Pledgemage is just a 3/3 for 2, but doesn't do much anything else. Soul Seizer  Flip is too clunky, when you could just do Control Magic for 1 less and is an immediate payoff. Firemind's Foresight. I like this card, but it's just a little pricey for my liking. Elder Mastery. Again, a little too pricey for the payoff. Sedris, the Traitor King is really only good in a more creature heavy build with a mill subtheme. Since you only have 15 creatures, it doesn't seem worth it.

These are just a few of my opinions on the deck. Hope any of this helps.

11/23/22 - Madness update

I'm really low on madness cards. Needs to be far higher for an anje deck.

OUT

NOTES

Removed most end game threats + interaction that didn't have madness, since madness tech needs to be there in high density and the deck can win through that stuff mainly.

Gidgetimer I did get a new copy of Necropotence. I had sold mine after not having used it in years, but this is the perfect deck for it.

TheOfficialCreator Light Up the Stage and Theater of Horrors work great!

Thank you both for these great suggestions. I also added

TheOfficialCreator Thank you, Light Up the Stage looks great with Spellweaver Helix. I wish Vilis, Broker of Blood was a dragon. MaybeMaskwood Nexus to make him a dragon… Theater of Horrors looks perfect, though!
