Replacement Commanders - Yennett is Odd, But is She Good?
by
DM Cross
Well, hello there again, readers. My name is Seth Cross, though I commonly go by “DM” (and yes, it does stand for Dungeon Master). Now, that introduction may seem familiar to those of you who've read my very first articles here on EDHREC; that's the introduction I used for my first article series for this […]
Epic Experiment - Sliver Zur
Experimenting Epically Good morning, EDHREC! I'm Bernardo Melibeu and this is The Epic Experiment, a series where we throw all common sense aside and experiment with some unusual cards, effectively changing how we normally build our deck. Is it going to work? Who knows?! We're making science here. When you're an Izzet mage, blowing things up […]
Commander Focus — Vaevictis Asmadi 2, the Budget
Vaevictis the Dire... On a Budget! As a new twist, I'm writing a follow-up article to a previous commander. In my last article about , I made a deck list that I felt comfortable playing. Only later did I look at the per-card budget lines of the deck and realize that I made a lot of […]

The 600 - Predicting the Popularity of C18 Commanders
Making a Prophecy I love prophecy. I'm not sure why. I love the prophets and prophetesses of Greek myth. I love when authors foreshadow future events in books. I even love pro football preseason picks (though how accurate are they, really?). All in all, predicting the future is pretty cool. With this series, I'm going […]
General Medicine - Crouching Cromat, Hidden Zedruu
The Doctor is In Welcome back to the doctor's office! Before we get to this week's patient, I want to extend another thank you to everyone who has sent in decks since my previous article, I often get very good submissions, but the ones sent in now have been delivered by prospective patients who have […]
Commander Showdown - Varina vs Sidisi
Endless Ranks of the Undead If there's one thing I've learned playing Magic: the Gathering, it's that the Zombies just never stop coming. From Alpha to Zendikar, the dead are always with us, hungry for more. I've written not one but two Commander Showdowns about Zombie tribal decks in Commander... but only for the blue-black legends. While I've discussed , , and […]
The Knowledge Pool - Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign
Commander Potluck Hi everyone! Welcome back to The Knowledge Pool! This week we're doing something a little different and delving into a territory this series doesn't normally cover: budget deck building. Like many of you, I've been brewing a ton of the new commanders from Commander 2018, and as a result, I've been a bit tight […]
Andrew Jackson Highlander - Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer
Engineering A Swarm Welcome to Andrew Jackson Highlander, a biweekly series of articles where I build and share $20 Commander decks. With Commander 2018's recent release, I am going to share a build for one of the set's alternate commanders in this article. This week, we start off with a traditional Izzet strategy: Go-wide tokens…. Wait, wait, […]
