"I said I don't want any damn permanents."

...Alright maybe a couple. Here, lemme borrow some of yours. Hey so Codie, Vociferous Codex sure is a card. And it lends itself to a neat playstyle, even if that playstyle is very one-arm-tied-behind-my-back. So we're gonna just jam a whooole bunch of instants and sorceries into the deck and maybe like one nonland permanent for shenanigans.

Creatures are kind of important in Commander. What else will everyone spend their 70+ removal spells on? Lets get a few. Unfortunately, Codie makes this pretty difficult and blocks off even enchantment and artifact based strategies for cheating out creatures. So we're gonna rely on token generation, creature copying, and graverobbing for getting blockers I mean bodies on the board.

Being in all five colors and not needing to play permanents gives us lots of choice for removal. The Lesson Plan should cover almost every eventuality, so let's get some of everything. Single target, board wipes, artifact and/or enchantment removal, destroy, burn, bounce, exile, etc., etc.

Let's also include some untapping spells to squeeze more value out of Codie as well. It gives Codie another chance at kinda-cascading into a spell, which is neat.

I'm gonna update this with a new version once I get some proper playtesting in.
