Deck History and Summary:
After choosing Grenzo, Dungeon Warden to replace the (B/R) part of my former Alesha, Who Smiles at Death deck, i was missing a (W/B) commander to substitute its other half. I didn't want to overlap with decks of others in my playgroup, so Athreos, God of Passage, Daxos the Returned as well as the Teysas weren't an option.
Of the old deck i still had Tymna the Weaver, Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim and Kambal, Consul of Allocation sitting in my binder. I didn't feel like going for another grayeyard/sac oriented deck and the former felt like it were a waste in the command zone without a Partner, so i went for Kambal, Consul of Allocation as a midrange life gain and life drain commander.
I didn't feel like sitting in a pillow fort just raking up absurd numbers, like some troll-ish Oloro, Ageless Ascetic deck, so i did put in several options to actively use my life count as a ressource.
I wasn't able to play test it too much yet, so there might be extensive overhauls in the future.
Let me know what you think of the deck! I'm always happy to get input.
