Randomly decided to go through some legendary creatures and talk about how good I think they are, because clearly I'm qualified
Adun Oakenshield
Me: if it was 2 mana it could be playable, but at 3 it's shit
Cedhrec: 1678
Angus Mackenzie
Me: unsure. Could be good, but probably not
Cedhrec: 952
Arcades Sabboth
Me: shit. Even if he buffed power instead of toughness he'd still be awful. Even if he didn't set you back 3 mana he'd be bad
Cedhrec: 1866
Axelrod Gun arson(or Gunnarson if you're boring)
Me: shit. I'm looking at these as commanders, but even in a 1v1 game to my knowledge 5 mana for a 5/5 with trample is okay it best, so in a 1v1 setting with 20 life paying 3 extra just to occasionally do 1 damage and gain 1 life is complete shit. In commander, though, you have 40 life, and 4 players, so it's even worse.
Cedhrec: 2465
Ayesha Tanaka
Me: 4 mana for a 2/2 with banding is a comically bad rate that is not helped at all by the ability. It specifies 1 white mana, so it could work against non white decks, but it has to be an artifact, so it has to be a non white deck that uses artifacts. But hey, sol ring and other mana artifacts are pretty common in Cedh, but this can't target artifacts. It's such a specific hate piece for 4 mana that needs to tap to hate, it wouldn't be good in most formats, but this is commander, which doesn't have a sideboard, and I'm more specifically talking avout these being your commander, and if you're using your commander slot for this you might as well just play without a commander*
Cedhrec: 2346
Barktooth Warbeard
Me: shit. It's a vanilla and neither of its stats are higher than its mana cost.
Cedhrec: 2725
Bartel Runeaxe
Me: a 6 mana 6/5 with vigilance and a downside. Need I say more? Probably not but I will anyway. I know not being able to be targeted by aura spells COULD be an upside, since there are some offensive auras, but auras in general aren't very good, and this also protects it from your auras, so not good, and very bad as a commander
Cedhrec: 2721
Boris Devilboon
Me: I'm starting to realise how few cards are competitively viable, I think I'll start trying to be more lenient with these. Starting sfter this one, because it's a fucking 5 mana 2/2 that doesn't have every positive keyword in existence. 4 mana to create a token isn't a very good rate already, but you also have to tap it, so you can't even try to use a bunch of rituals cuz it's black and red to create a bunch of tokens. It doesn't matter if you found a way to give dark ritual storm and cast 50 spells before it, you get a single 1/1 demon. Even the name is an insult, they called it lesser.
Cedhrec: 2680
Chromium
Me: this is close to being decent, but permanently setting you back 3 mana is way too much. If it had trample and only set you back 2 it MIGHT be competitively viable, because then the rampage becomes useful, but without trample there's no reason not to just throw a 1/1 at it whenever it attacks, and at that point 3 mana every turn is way too much. 1 mana every turn would be too much considering it costs 8 mana. Flying helps it, but 8 mana PLUS an upkeep cost is too much
Cedhrec: 1786
Dakkon Blackblade
Me: kinda like Chromium, but closer. Just about any positive keyword other than banding or rampage would at least make this decent. A card that scales with you is good, but cedh has a lot of ramp with artifacts and stuff, and it doesn't check for those, so a chunk of your mana base won't affect it, but a lot of keywords could help it scale better. Lifelink could heal you as much as they damage. Sure life gain isn't too good, but I still think it could make this decent. Trample could allow there to be a difference between 8 lands and 80 lands even when your opponent has a lot of creatures. Flying, menace, or any other evasion ability could have a similar effect. Reach could also help, making them more of a defensive creature than offensive. Really anything, but with no abilities aside from their stats I don't think they're very good.
Cedhrec: 831

4 - Adun Oakenshield
Hey everyone, Iâm back with our 4th alphabetical commander - Adun Oakenshield.
Many moons ago, WOTC once wondered, what if we made a set just about Legendary creatures? And thus, the Legends Block was born!
LORE:
Adun is one of the many...
legendaries from the Legends set. Legends was a trailblazer in many ways - a true standalone set, the first with multicolored cards (like Adun, above), the first with 15 card boosters.
It also introduced Legendary Creatures, Legendary Lands, Bands with other (sweet Jesus this set is older than I am), the Rampage ability (when was this a thing?), World Enchantments (this is like the Jurassic Age, seriously), and Poison (because Infect was a pain, even back then).
Unfortunately for more Vorthos lore, all we know about most of the sets legendaries is their flavor text, and some donât even have that. Luckily, Adun has both interesting text (coming back from the grave?) and a good ability - pulling dead guys back to your hand.
BATTLE PLAN:
Adun doesnât mind discarding creature cards, sacrificing them, and milling himself - he can get what he wants back. Jund colors gives us plenty of equipment to work with.
Heâs listed as a Tier 3 commander, so above and beyond our previous examples. (http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/list-multiplayer-edh-generals-by-tier/)
First, Iâm doing non-budget deck plan, and then a more budget one - apologies ahead of time, Adun is NOT conducive to budget building (He already has a price tag of $33 and up, or ~$20 for a heavily played copy).
Replicating Adun
We like Adunâs ability - and we want more of it. Plucking things back from the âyard is a necessary part of EDH.
(1) Volrathâs Stronghold
Coming in at TCGPlayerâs market price of $32.45, Volrathâs Stronghold sets the tone for the expensive needs of high-end Adun deck. Youâll be throwing your creatures into the âyard like they owe you money, so you want ways of getting them back - and Volrath offers a very reasonable mana cost for a repeatable effect.
(2) Eternal Witness
An EDH staple, grabbing anything is nice. Sheâs also a great target for Adun to grab repeatedly, play, sac, and grab again.
(3) Greenwarden of Murasa
More mana, but basically a Witness, and can trigger when dying if needed.
(4) Genesis
You get this guy in the âyard, and heâs a repeatable Adun effect.
(5) Crucible of Worlds
This was never going to be a cheap deck. Might as well get the crucible.
(6) Reclaim/Regrowth
Share a slot because they get back what you need.
(7) Phyrexian Reclamation
Bring back your creature, again and again.
Resurrection
The twin of bringing things to your hand is plain old resurrection. Black does it best, and youâve got black to work with.
(1) Mikeus
Keeps most of your guys coming back Undying, letting you abuse ETB effects. Pricey, but fun.
(2) Reanimate/Necromancy/Dread Return
Staple reanimators. Necromancy can flash in for emergencies.
(3) Phyrexian Delver
Reanimate on legs.
(4) Animate Dead/Dance of the Dead
Enchantments that reanimate. More vulnerable to removal, and Dance has a quasi-upkeep. But when youâre pulling a dragon from the yard, it feels like a bargain.
(5-10) Yea...I donât actually do much resurrection, so just add in some that you like best.
Graveyard
We want things in the yard - we can mill ourselves, sac, and discard to this effect. Pick your favorites, and here Iâll add some of mine.
(1) Entomb
A resurrection classic. Versatile and useful. Always bring one to a more competitive match.
Similar to Entomb - Buried Alive,Â
(2) Living Death
A bit different, but a nice way to bring back your team after some mass sacrifice or something.
(3) Phyrexian Altar / Ashnodâs Altar
Ideally, you can have both, but Ashnodâs fine on a budget.Â
(4) Diamond Valley
Yea, Alliances. I needed a archaeological team to look it up. Sac outlet on a land, does good work. Sure ainât cheap.
(5) Dimir House Guard
Sac outlet that can dodge some Mass Removal (might as well sac your guys to save the House Guard when Supreme Verdict drops). The Guard is also really cheap, so get a playset.
(6) Vampiric Rites
Much needed for Lifegain and draw. Also cheap.
(7) Goblin Bombardment
Incoming board wipe? Sac. Bad combat matchup? Sac. Mind control an enemy creature? Sac post-combat. Bombardment has all your sacâing need.
BUDGET
Okay, you somehow bought a Adun. Or proxied him. Or found him. But you want a reasonable budget - something in the $75-$150 range, or less. Letâs get cracking!
Whatâs the plan? We canât have the same robust reanimation stuff (that stuff is seriously expensive) and sec outlets (itâs like 20 bucks for phyrexian alter! thatâs like 3 lunches!).Â
Well, thereâs a lot we can do. We can DEVOUR!
Devour is cheap, scaling, and fiscally reasonable. It opens the doors for lots of +1/+1 counter play. It lets you work with creatures that want to die, and when they do, Adun can pull them back to use them again.
Leaving the Battlefield/Dies
(1) Arcbound Lancer
All of the Modular creatures of a cheap nature are fine in this strategy - saving the counters when a creature dies is very synergystic.
(2) Body Snatcher
Puts creatures in your âyard, and pulls someone out of the âyard when snatcher dies. A fun guy to work with.
(3) Cathodion
As long as you control when Cathodion dies, it works great. When Adun has time to untap,Â
(4) Corpse Augur
Drawing cards is good, and you can usually control how many cards you pick up and life you lose, by picking the right grave.
(5) Destructor Dragon
Iâve seen this card used once in a Meren deck, and as such was inspired to add it to this list. Comes in hand to take care of enemy enchantments and artifacts (which black and red can have trouble with).
(6) Filigree Familiar
Lifegain and card draw. Making this little guy reusable with Adun gives you something to do on turns when you canât effect the board state.
(7) Goblin Gardener
When you need to destroy that Gaeaâs Cradle that the legacy player brought.
(8) Noxious Toad
Discard. Is. Awesome. Plus it got errataâd to each opponent.
I could go on listing other cards that like dying, and creatures that like other creatures dying (Blood Artist), but Iâd say just add what feels right - cover your bases and have your dying creatures do a bit of everything. So what synergizes with death?
(1) Ogre Slumlord
Youâll lose your guys, but at least youâll have something on the field. These rats make great blockers.
(2) Ob Nixilis, Unshackled
He loves it when anyone dies, and punished your opponents Tutors and Fetches.
(3) Blood Artist
Blood Artist is great. When anyone dies, you can ping and gain life.
(4) Falkenrath Noble.
Blood Artist, but bigger.
(5) Stalking Vengance
Makes death count even more.
(6) Sekâkuar
Even more death synergy, and more bodies to trigger death triggers, or sac to Ashnodâs altar.
(7) Sifter of Skulls
Like Slumlord puts tokens on the field.Â
Untapping Adun
(1) Magewrightâs Stone
Gotta exploit Adunâs ability, so that means untapping him.
(2) Mobile Garrison
A new artifact from Aether Revolt, using it lets you untap Adun after combat.
(3) Puppet Strings
Pulling multiple duties, Puppet here can untap Adun, or help control the battlefield.
(4) Thousand-Year Elixir
I know, not exactly budget at $5, but the Elixir works so well with Adun you just want to include it.
(5) Copperhorn Scout
Itâll probably die, but untaps your Adun and attacking team.
(6) Instill Energy
At $10, itâs not budget, but use it if you got it. Haste and a second untapping is awesome.
The Rest
The res of the deck, be it budget or sky-high, is relatively simple. Staple EDH cards, like Greenâs Eternal Witness, Naturalize,Blackâs board wipes (Languish, and pricier options) Diabolic Tutor (or Demonic & Vampiric to splurge), draw like Sign in Blood, Redâs unpredictability like Gamble and Reverberate. Add Wailing Warp as a singular counterspell (always nice for Jund to throw out a counter).
Add the normal mana rocks, ramp stuff like Kodamaâs Reach. Check out the professorâs guide (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifig4xSp0kA) for 3 color building.Â
Adun himself needs the normal commander protection- even more so, as Toxic Deluge at 2 kills him. Equipment is a little hard to get out without access to White mana, so it takes some work.
WEAKNESSES
Adun has one big weakness - the âyard. While not to the extent of someone like Meren, Adun likes a full grave to maximize his potential - Tormod hurts a lot.
Adun is also slow. Using his ability takes away 3 mana from you (even when optimally done at the end of your preceding opponentâs turn, and everyone sees what you get back. Without haste, the deck grinds to a halt, as Adunâs ability takes forever to use.
RATINGS:
Control: 5/10 - Adun doesnât add anything to board control, but his colors let him be very effective at it - Red has damage, Black has removal and sac options, Green gets to fight and beat people up in combat. Adun gives you options, but itâs up to you to add them to the deck.
Diplomacy: 5/10 - Nothing special - everyone can read Adunâs plan, and heâs not that threatening on his own. Heâs slow, and everyone knows it.
Aggro: 7/10 - Adun NEEDS to be aggressive - his ability is creature oriented, and this relies on creature and aggro to win. Less an ability and more of a necessity.Â
Overall Power: 5/10 - Adun is not a win-con on his own. His reclaimation ability can retrieve combo pieces (if thatâs your style), but otherwise heâs just a slow reclaiming guy. He needs other pieces to win - when those pieces are great, heâs great, when those pieces are not, heâs not.
Affordability: 4/10 - Adun, at his peak...is not cheap. Even my plan of devour and cheap creatures is not Adunâs optimal build (itâs a 75% deck)
Overall: 26/50 - I honestly thought Adun would be worse. Heâs a card from a bygone age with a fun ability, but heâs clunky. Heâs ranked as Tier 3 on the Multiplayer Tier list (http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/list-multiplayer-edh-generals-by-tier/), so heâs workable, and better than everyone weâve seen so far.Â
1 of the 99: Adun is a nice addition to Jund reanimation, but doesnât belong outside of that strategy.
Final Verdict: Meh. Adun is a fun commander, but not particularly competitive. It takes work to get his to the â75%â point, and itâs mostly based on the deck, not the commander.Â
Thatâs all for now folks! If you have any other suggestions for Adun, let me know! good bye for now⊠Â
