Now that I started building this UW Temmet token unblockable, having Roon as commander might be too strong in my playgroup.
I think that I'll stick to Temmet...already gathering cards and I like where this deck is going.
@Outcryqq I have all decks from commander 2013, 2015-17.
Ojutai doesnt look interesting. If I want to look at the top X cards and draw one of them - I know other cards. Playing Ojutai just for the sake of his specific ability is ehhh...
I already checked this multiplayer edh decklist but didnt find what I wanted.
Are you looking at power levels out of the box or after upgraded? For example, Derevi is not that strong out of the box but can easy become on of the most oppressive commanders. Also, if they are upgraded, will they be tuned to play each other. Would the other eligible commanders be able to be used?
Much has been changed since a month ago.
1) I moved from beefy giants to control-burn-group hug-ish.
I have problem with my deck though...im using Arcane Wizardry and Seize Control as base, mixed them together and upgraded the deck (Kess as cmd). But im having trouble without white for more control/group hug and w/o green for ramp.
2) My friend switched from vamps to dragons (Draconic Domination) with slight upgrade.
3) Derevi OOtB is almost as bad as Arcane Wizardry OOtB. I want to upgrade him to combo WU with fewer G cards but in the same time I dont want him to become too oppressive.
The only one that sticks out to me as significantly weaker than the rest is Kalemne. You could probably play Swell the Host (Ezuri) instead and all would be reasonably well balanced.
If you're looking at upgrading straight away, some of these do stand out as having a much higher potential than others. Derevi and Meren are probably the most competitive, with Derevi able to be seriously oppressive. It's probably too early to tell with Arahbo or Edgar but I doubt either of them will ever be as competitive.
What about Inalla? I want to try her deck but I read that the wizards deck out of the box is terrible...
Not a dig at OP or anything but it seems these threads keep popping up. Maybe we need to run a poll to decide the generally accepted power rankings amongst all the decks and then sticky that bastard.
Sorry if I post something that has been posted many times, I'm new here.
And I absolutely agree with you. I will go further and even say why not a whole sticky thread just for precon commanders?
Well you can upgrade Arahbo with Ahmonket cards and Edgar with Ixlan cards fairly easily and cheaply.
The problem is it doesn't take very much upgrading at all before Meren gets completely out of hand.. Sakura-tribe elder OP.
I thought to upgrade edgar and arahbo with AHK/XLN sets but I was too afraid I will make them out of balance.
Are there any cards I should take out (op/up) ?
My friends and I (5 players) want to try commander but we are new to magic (around HOU set).
We dont have the experience to build deck so my question is: which one of the precon commanders do you think is best out of the box?

Maybe using Derevi as commander?
My sets are:
XLN
HOU
AKH
AER
KLD

I admit that my deck building is not good enough (new player).
I'm looking for fun and casual WU deck using cards from the listed above set.
Of course I'm not expecting you to give me full deck list but any direction would be nice.
I thought maybe generate white tokens for defense and use blue unblockable and/or flying to attack.
Question: Does attacking creatures MUST attack if you declared them as attackers? (or because of Illusionist's Gambit)
Can a player declare attackers just for the sake of lets say triggered abilities but in fact attack no one and just skip to end of combat?

I have cards to upgrade Kalemne.
I wonder if we need to upgrade the rest as well.
1) Wade Into Battle (Kalemne)
2) Plunder the Graves (Meren)
3) Feline Ferocity (Arahbo)
4) Evasive Maneuvers (Derevi)
5) Vampiric Bloodlust (Edgar)
I want to upgrade a deck and I'm sure that I have some of the cards but searching my whole cards is too time consuming.
I watched alot of youtube and read online about the C17 wizards, they are the worst according to my research.
Also, you mentioned Derevi being tier 2. Meaning?
We dont have the experience to build deck so my question is: which one of the precon commanders do you think is best out of the box?
