This is a casual Commander deck built around Etrata, the Silencer.

Built from cards I already have.

Some of the things I want to be doing in this deck:

• Take Etrata off of the battlefield before she gets shuffled into the deck. This can be Bounce, Flicker/Blink, a Ninjutsu effect, or Phasing, etc.
• Copy / Swap In for Etrata. This lets us effectively keep one new "Etrata" on the battlefield while we send the original back to the command zone for reuse. To use it this way, though, this needs to be instant speed. It could also be useful, in a different way, if it creates non-legendary copies. I may end up including little, if anything, from this category.
• Allow Etrata to do her thing more than once per turn. E.g. Cards that copy triggered abilities. It's a dirty shame that double strike doesn't work for this commander. :-)
• Protect the ability to execute the game plan. This can be creature protection, counterspells, and the like. Bounce, Flicker/Blink, and Phasing can do double duty here.
• Utility things like Draw, Ramp, Cost Reduction, Removal, and Haste.
