Description: I've been making building, playing, trading, and selling Commander/EDH decks for a long time. I started playing Highlander when I was a kid and fell in love with Singleton formats. All of my decks are original creations that have been play tested and are capable of winning an EDH/Brawl/Oathbreaker game in a causal format. In my play group we have a $50 cap tourney and a $25 cap tourney; where we play with decks that have a median TCG, CK, CF, or CS value of no higher than 50 dollars American. It's really fun and a good way to keep a play group fresh without breaking the bank. I list most of our decks on eBay once they pass the $50 or $25 mark or win too many games and become hated by my friends. Decks that don't win any games and are given up on are added back to the collective card pool, so every deck listed here has won at least one game piloted by a human in real life. These decks are really good for for casual EDH players looking for a functioning fun deck that doesn't break the bank and require multiple purchases. These decks also work for more experienced players that want a certain color combo or archetype to build around. The decks asking price is usually set at or below CK median (not including box, tokens, sleeves, basic lands etc.) which means they're often bought by people just looking for 100 playable MTG cards at a fair price. I'll add tokens but they won't always match. I may have to add random proxies for flip cards. Basic lands are from various sets and languages. Shipping is $7 in the U.S. Decks come tracked. I offer combined shipping if you request total before you complete checkout. I can combine up to 3 decks for .50 for each additional deck.ALL DECKS WILL BE SHIPPED SLEEVED IN A DECK BOX AND WITH TOKENS. If you do not want a deck box, sleeves and/or basic lands let me know before checkout and I will a knock a couple bucks off. CK Range (not including basic lands, tokens, sleeves and deck box) as of 03/19/24: $27.88-28.16 *CMDR* proceeds the commander. Cards are marked SL for slight play, MP for medium play, HP for heavy play and D for damaged. HP and Damaged cards probably won't be tournament legal in their current sleeves but everything should be tourney legal in non-clear sleeves. Cards with two letters (*ZH*) are non-English, cards with a *F* are foils, and cards that specify a number are extended, showcase or alternate art variants. This deck plays very well in 1 on 1 matches and group games. This deck is built around Alora, Merry Thief and the background Candlekeep Sage. It can also run Saruman, the White, Meneldor, Swift Savior, Elrond, Lord of Rivendell, Vhal, Candlekeep Researcher, Renari, Merchant of Marvels, Feywild Visitor, Sword Coast Sailor, Gale, Waterdeep Prodigy or Shameless Charlatan in the command zone. The basic strategy is to sneak creatures through combat then bounce them for bonus value. The deck runs lots of ways to recur eta abilites. This would be a great deck for someone looking for a color combo and Theme that can be played out of the box and easily be built upon in the future.
