Have you ever been sitting in your chair watching maelstrom wanderer cascade into imminent death, or thrown you cards across the room because jhoira just got off Ulamog, Kozilek, and a friggin land destruction card for free? Have you ever just wanted to drop an opponents life to zero with the push of a button?? WELL THANK THE LORD JESUS FOR ATEMSIS!! This scrawny 4/5 for 6 mana only need a power of 1 to KO an opponant with one swing! The goal here is simple... protect the creepy human bird while digging for as many different CMCs as possible. I have designed the CMCs in this deck to be about 60% CMC-1 through 4, and 40 percent 5 plus (not including land for 0-CMC). If it were to be evenly spread it would be more difficult to decide weather to play spells or to hold them to be able to trigger our commander's nuclear missile. Since there is a larger amount of lower CMC spells we dont have to hold onto mana rocks or counters because with the amount of draw spells we're playing, we will have plenty to fill up the 6 different CMCs we need. Another way this deck will load up after using spells is by bouncing things back to our hand. Cards like flood of tears or paradoxical outcome were literally born to be in this deck because it fills up our hand with our permanents to refill CMC spots we are missing to be able to finish off someone off. Veridian bow and sorcerer's wand give us the ability to trigger Atemsis' ability without dealing combat damage and will also give us a double kill in group games with cards like Turnabout, which will also help us use his activated ability twice in a turn in case we still need to dig some more. Most of my high CMC cards I have in the deck also help with card draw like my personal favorite Jin-gitaxis. He's 10 mana and this deck is mono blue so it will be a while before we can cast him. That isn't an issue though because in this deck having cards with high CMCs sitting in your hand isn't a bad thing. I love this commander because it's mono blue with a built in win con. You get to focus on what blue does best which is countering annoying crap while drawing cards. Also this deck is full of awesome high CMC creatures that arent played too much in other decks! Going off with an infinite is kinda cool if your kinda lame, and running someone over with creatures is simple, but once you have your six CMCs and Viridian bow attached to Atemsis... everyone is gunna be kissing your feet to survive ;) If anyone has any suggestions or ideas please let me know! This commander is so new that I didnt have much to go off and want to make it as strong as possible!
