I hope you brought a lot of tokens.

Orvar is the meanest, most interesting and most fun new General from Commander Legends 2, Electric Boogaloo (Kaldheim).

You'll use cards that not even your friend with a full set of Alpha has heard of, and you'll get more value from 1 blue mana than if Ancestral Recall was legal.

Card's like Thoughtlace , Aquitect's Will , Rescue , Steel Sabotage , Gigadrowse will suddenly now have the added text provided by Orvar, the All-Form reading: "Make a copy of whatever it is you feel like"

A couple interesting plays:

High Tide + any card such as Aquitect's Will can go mana positive and draw a card as a bonus. Curse of the Swine can wipe an opponent's board, and create a copy of your Agent of Treachery at the same time. Try Propaganda with a few cards such as Hidden Strings or Thermal Flux to never worry about creatures attacking you ever again. Or maybe have a few copies of Rhystic Study or Mystic Remora to never worry about card draw again. And if you're the type who loves all the blue mana in the world - Isochron Scepter + Dream's Grip = Infinite Mana. Mind Games + Peregrine Drake = Infinite Mana.

But the star of the show is Sakashima of a Thousand Faces - with this card as a copy of Orvar, suddenly Scute Swarm seems like a bad card. (also works with Spark Double ). And when you do have one hundred copies of Orvar, why not play Persistent Petitioners and tap all your Orvars to completely mill a player out (thanks changeling!)

Draw is VERY important as you will empty your hand every single time you untap with Orvar. Orvar can't be killed so long as you have 1 blue mana up to make a copy of them. I can go on for so long, but I would recommend just trying it! There is a maybeboard for use if you don't like cards like Back to Basics or are too attached to Sol Ring .

Please let me know any suggestions, I have enjoyed playing this deck a tonne and would love to make it more consistent!
