Drawing 7 cards each turn is pretty fun in commander. This deck loves having a giant hand and uses it to its advantage.

This is a work in progress :) I would love feedback.

As of right now, this is a budget deck.

The Commander

This big boy draws us seven cards each turn if we can get him out. The main drawback with this commander, of course, is the mana cost, so we run a little more ramp than average. Once we cast him, with a counterspell or two, he will stay out long enough to murder our opponents' hands, severely limiting them and allowing us to advance our own gameplan without too much disruption. Also we'll consistently draw 7 cards a turn, hopefully.

The Deck

"A mind may be steeled against madness, but all battlements fall in time."

-Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur

With Jin as my commander, I want to have enough ramp, cast him with protection, then draw enough cards to keep on the battlefield. Eventually I'll be swinging in with huge Aeon Chroniclers, Sturmgeists, and Psychosis Crawlers. Nifty "whenever I draw" effects like Psychosis Crawler and Chasm Skulker will generate value. And every once in a while, I'll win a game with Laboratory Maniac and/or Enter the Infinite ;)

What this deck needs

Based on the games I've played with this so far, this deck doesn't have enough ways to win. We often can't compete with the board state of creature-heavy decks, and when we don't get enough ramp, we end up with a bad creature or two out and a small hand.

What we need:

• A little more ramp: I'm not able to get my commander out fast enough as is.
• More ways to win: This deck doesn't have enough ways to win. We often can't compete with the board state of creature-heavy decks. We just don't have enough creatures and our giant hand doesn't help us as much as I'd like.
