Great list : ) I used to have a Talrand mono blue was fun but you can easily make it a mean counter deck

[@NerdinKorea]

I think that would be a good one. Tarland is basically an auto-include as well!

[@The-Swift-Kobold]

@@NerdinKorea There is a more fun version of Talrand called Alandra.

Arwen can be a Pauper EDH Commander, which is how I built her.

[@NerdinKorea]

I haven't tried that format out. I feel like I would like that one.

@@NerdinKorea it's only commons with an uncommon commander (which can be any uncommon creature, but I prefer to follow traditional Commander rules) and the same rules as standard commander. With Arwen, it gets a bit tricky thanks to not really getting some of the better scry cards, but I've played it on some fairly high powered tables that weren't dealing with that sort of restriction. It's done decently well, even at a disadvantage like that. You can still get good counter spells, and there's some really powerful things at common over the years. That list comes out to around $30 total, too.
