Scornful Egotist Deck help

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on June 6, 2017, 6:59 a.m. by Geralf_Cecani

I recently talked to my playgroup, and they said that they would let me use the Scornful Egotist as my commander, even though he isn't legendary. This has cleared the way for my new deck plan. What I'm planning on doing is building a deck full of those seriously OP creatures that exist in colourless and blue, such as Millennial Gargoyle , Welkin Tern , Tattered Haunter and Curio Vendor . I also want to use blue's amazing card advantage to its full potential, using spells such as Think Twice, Coastal Discovery and Brilliant Spectrum . Im also thinking of throwing in a counterspell or two, such as Countermand or Censor. Im not really going with any sort of synergy, just trying to beat them to death with the sheer quality of the cards Im using.

Please add any suggestions that you think would work well with this deck type. Remember Im not looking for merely Ok spells, like Jace's Ingenuity. They have to be amazing, like, Storm Crow quality, nothing less.

NOTE TO ADMINS: Pls dont ban me, Im actually making this deck: as a joke and as a spare deck my playgroup can punish people who forget to bring their own decks with; and Im actually having a bit of trouble finding cards bad enough to go in here

... why would anybody ban you for this? It's a hilarious idea, nobody get's offended by it and you seem like a good person. So no reason to ban there. It's not the first "joke" deck this site has seen.
I think a good card for the deck would be Zephyr Spirit. Every deck needs a high-end drop.

I'd also recommend Fugitive Wizard and Leyline Phantom, although the latter might be a little too weak.

I use to have hand me down cards and actually had a ton of of the Egotist...still want a foil for fun.

Never the less, I had cards like Fog Elemental (might be too good) and Vaporous Djinn come to mind. Big things but at big cost, not sure if that quite fulfills the same message you are going for, but I find it funny.

Also the amazing card Foresight would be great.

Or use Predict. Without top it's a bad cantrip.

Darksteel Relic and Leviathan might be up your alley here. Great, useful cards.

My lgs gave me a foil egotist. Everyone who sees it wants it. It's just so powerful.

There's an all Swamp deck somewhere in here... no harm done if you craft something, even if it's CMC is ridiculous

There is an all swamp deck on this site, but it is no match for the all island deck that exists.
