The Q&A is for rules questions. Moved to EDH forum.

Honestly, I don't think Conjurer's Closet is good.

To give you an actual answer, though, any color you want. Conjurer's Closet is colorless, and its ability is not color dependent. Any creature card with an ETB or LTB ability will technically work with Conjurer's Closet .

All colors have a lot of creatures with ETB/LTB effects. Here is a list of all non-white creatures with either effect.

Thragtusk and Blade Splicer .. I have a deck that builds around Conjurer's Closet and Venser where you might find some inspiration. Check it out: Venser. (suggestions to my deck are welcome, post them in my decks comments)

I like Conjurer's Closet but I'm a little unsure how you will use it in EDH. With a single copy in your 100 card deck how often will you see it? Even if you go with lots of tutors to find it, what do you plan on doing with it once you have it?

That being said, check out my Ruhan of the Fomori deck U/W/R, it uses Conjurer's Closet but does not rely on it. It might give you some ideas.

Whatever color you think can work. Find yourself a commander with an ETB effect so Conjurer's Closet can abuse it. I use the closet in my Ulasht, the Hate Seed deck. Best colors in my opinion would be blue and white, so you can add some redundancy to the closet. You could easily abuse Lavinia of the Tenth with Deadeye Navigator , Flickerwisp and others....

Arcum Dagsson gets it out pretty reliably.

While not an EDH deck, one of my friends made a Jellyfish Tribal deck that abuses Conjurer's Closet with cards like Man-o'-War . Just as long as you have cards that you can abuse with the blink effect, I think you'll be fine. A good commander for it would be Venser, Shaper Savant b/c he promotes a blink deck just fine.

I play a Numot, the Devastator blink EDH because I wanted the bounce of blue with the removal from white an the Act of Treason like effects in red that allow you to occasionally steal things permanently.
