Huh, take the third option...slipped my mind. That might work as well. Honestly I think we'll have to test that out to find what works best.

Btw, I've seen this format elsewhere in the interwebs and it's generally referred to as Planeswaker EDH. If you can think up a fancy nickname for it that's great, but most people will understand what you're saying if you refer to it as that.

I say commander decks cause it will give you access to things like Primal Vigor which is good but not as broken as say Doubling Season and allows you access to the "commanders" they printed like Skullbriar, the Walking Grave and without being able to recast them from the command zone they will be allot less devastating

I'm just going to say now, mono-black devotion around Sorin Markov is going to kill thanks to his second ability.
May 11, 2014 11:08 p.m.
Now is there any plainswalkers we feel to strong to use as commanders?
May 11, 2014 11:11 p.m.
Yea Sorin Markov is a good one to not allow as commander, fine MD but not commander
May 11, 2014 11:13 p.m.
Although I'm thinking about Sorin, Lord of Innistrad as my commander

I'm making a Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas for a commander.

Also there is the fact that there are no 3+Color plainswalkers this will limit the cards available to any one deck dramatically

Nicol Bolas begs to argue with you Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker

This will be fun endeavor creating a new format again (me and my friends played EDH 14 years ago but we only used 60 cards still and didn't have the "command zone" but I think some one took our ideas and created what we know today)

Well there IS actually one 3 color plainswalker...Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker . =3
Go ahead,...laugh maniacally! =D

Yea yea I know I actually got mine in one of the 2 packs I won for getting 8th place on the prerelease of conflux
May 11, 2014 11:31 p.m.
And yes he IS an elder dragon so I stand corrected...again

a link to the deck around tezzeret I brewed Planeswalker EDH if either of you are interested in looking at what I could come up with. Pretty sure I followed all the restrictions, let me know if I missed anything
May 11, 2014 11:37 p.m.
Ok back to the deck at hand Safewright Quest is good for this deck

I feel like it should have a more defined goal before getting into specific one-of cards for it. so creature swarm is what it seems to want, selesnya weenies leaves tokens, soldiers, or an elves with white splash going on. from lorwyn on all of those have decent options but tokens lose some of their steam without some of the cards from pre-walker era magic.
I would think soldiers with a little aside of tokens would be good to include, things like Hero of Bladehold
with elspeths, knight-captain of eos as mentioned above, and some other soldier guys Precinct Captain
, Captain of the Watch
, and green for some big finishers, Craterhoof Behemoth
and Overrun
come to mind for that. Primeval Titan
and Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger
gives you serious mana advantage. in these colors, probably both are better than a karametra would be.

And that's another thing about commander decks they have Command Tower and Opal Palace but like I said NO REPRINTS ie Sol Ring
May 11, 2014 11:52 p.m.
asasinater13 says... #21
ya, the land base is very much better with Command Tower and Opal Palace included. at the very least any cards that reference the command zone specifically should be included
May 11, 2014 11:58 p.m.
Mythril_Sage says... #22
I don't really feel like we should include Command Tower and Opal Palace , because they weren't printed in the legal sets for this format. I understand why you would want to though. =)
What's your opinion on this asasinater13?
May 11, 2014 11:58 p.m.
didn't know you could use a non Legendary creature as a commander.
