- This Commander deck is based around its general Anowon, the Ruin Sage and sticks to a tribal vampire theme. It also features a few of the common combos you might find in mono black.
- The deck is built for any size of multiplayer game and excels best when you can use your commander politically and not get too hated on. This deck is not likely to hold its own very well in 1v1 without considerable amount of tuning and reduction of flavor.
- The play style is that of mid range control and the objective is to use the general and other abilities to keep the board clear of everything except your own vampires. Warm up with an equipment or card draw engine and then go straight to casting the general and see what happens is my normal game plan, to play a bit less hateful you may want to cast Anowon only as a response to an opponents board that is starting to get out of control.
- The deck has a medium amount of removal and a high amount of synergy to back it up, but relies on its commander to do more work than other decks commonly do. Overall the deck is quite fun and very flavourful to play!
Hey all, new set time and thought I would quickly review each deck and update their main thread.
It doesn't seem like Khans has brought us anything new in the way of vampires or mono black goodness. and we likely won't see anything again for a while after coming down off the Innistrad block.
I updated the main list visually all the same.
