Glissa the Traitor - Armies of Cans

Artifact (1)

Creature (1)


So this was my first commander deck and I have put a lot of improvements and eventually money into the deck.

It has gone through several iterations, first, it was a deathtouch deck with viridian longbow/thornbite staff, then it moved onto being an eggs deck that draw a lot of cards for a green-black deck. Now it is a Controlling Midrange deck base around playing and repeatedly replaying "Army in a Can" artifact creatures and such I would describe its archetype as "The Rock" but with artifacts.

I has a lot of redundancy in recursion with Glissa as well as mana making sac outlets to fuel further board presence (and prevent exile). Importantly it is not too reliant on the graveyard as it really just wants to recur a single powerful creature rather than using the graveyard as the main thrust of the deck.

Additionally, recent reprints have allowed me to access the power of Lands, being an artifact based deck allows me to play a large number of colourless utility lands.

I found the Necron 40K deck and immediately added it to this. Plus the artifact non-sense in BRO and a return to New Phyrexia, my oldest deck has a new shine :). It struggles a little at FNM due to its lack of instant speed interaction and its slow grindy nature means it just get comboed out against, although it has its own combos so I guess I shouldn't complain.
