Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT When Magic: The Gathering players discuss the power level of commander decks, they split the best decks into a unique category: Competitive Elder Dragon Highlander or cEDH. A cEDH deck can typically win the game in only a matter of turns, usually with an explosive combo. This makes them some of the most powerful Commander decks, and they easily out-compete their more casual counterparts.
Competitive decks built around these commanders will look to win the game in a few ways. The more common strategy is to use cards like Demonic Consultation or Tainted Pact to empty their controller’s library, allowing them to win with Thassa’s Oracle. This deck typically uses the card Brain Freeze to help thin itself out, but it can also be used as a way to win the game. By casting enough spells in a turn, Brain Freeze can be used to mill out opponents for the win instead.
8 Kenrith, The Returned King Can Do A Little Bit Of Everything Close Kenrith the Returned King has been a favorite among five-color players in Commander for a while now. Though it is no longer the top choice for competitive decks, this commander still sees some high-level play thanks to his many abilities. Because Kenrith can draw cards with a repeatable effect, as soon as a Kenrith player sets up an infinite mana combo, they essentially win the game.
Magda, Brazen Outlaw’s abilities give players an extra source of mana and an easy way to search for the cards they need at any given moment. Magda decks will want to include low mana-value dwarves to help fuel this commander’s ability, as well as some high-powered dragons or artifacts to search for. Players will also want to include ways to tap and untap their dwarves like Clock of Omens combined with Mycosynth Lattice.
Because Tivit, Seller of Secrets is a late-game play, decks using this commander will typically rely on control and stax cards to stave off opponents in the early game. Cards like Grafdigger’s Cage can prevent popular graveyard strategies like Underworld Breach, and cards like Sorcerous Spyglass can be used to shut down popular abilities that are used for combos. This will allow Tivit, Seller of Secrets, players to stall until they are ready to cast their commander.
