Serberus_08, I had seen Roon of the hidden realms before and thought nothing of him, thinking his ability was meh. I now understand his potential, thanks to you. ETB triggers and leave battlefield triggers. Wow. Never thought about that. Thanks. This doesn't mean I gonna build him though, lol.
Hi, I have a similar question. In my lgs there are several players with a very awfull Commander and I want to be able to compete with them. So I'm looking for a very oppressive general and a deck to go with it, the kind where they don't get to have any fun. I like playing control alot, I guess that helps?
Looking forward to your answers and thanks!

It depends on how oppressive you want to be. If you want to lock them out then a Stax commander like Derevi, Empyrial Tactician is the way to go. If you'd like something a little more mild you can turn a lot of decks into pillow fort, Zedru the Greathearted being one example.
If neither of those are up your ally then good old-fashioned combo/control like Sharuum the Hedgemon might do the trick.

If combo should die before I wake I'll slide a Smokestack in every deck I play, roll in every shop wreck the Spirit of EDH.
I like playing out of the graveyard, as of lately, so Alesha still really resonates with me that is affordable and easy to build. She uses ETB and LTB triggers like made with free sac outlets: Ashnod's Altar, Goblin Bombardment, and Phyrexian Altar.

There is also pretty decent removal in those colors. Don't forget to stick in a Chaos Warp and Pyroblast.

I guess the overall point being, you can make anything you want and get good results.
