Commander Deck Tech: Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward // Candlekeep Sage | CL: Baldur's Gate

Thank you! I'm glad you like it! Will say also that cloud of faires can also be a combo piece if you have Abdel with a cloud of faires and archomancer under him and a 1 mana flicker spell you can generate infinite mana. If you have 2 mana flicker spell you just get infinite etbs which with one thing that's draws means well you draw your deck. So it's also good win con especially with plenty of the different effects in the deck. Oh and this can happen at INSTANT SPEED! :D

Also something I've been thinking about I'd maybe throwing in a couple of stax pieces like winter orb/static orb most of my stuff is cheap and most of my flicker spells are instant speed so I could just exile them on my opponents end step... hrm I think its time for a v2

I plan to run an Orzhov list where I pair Abdel with Agent of the Iron Throne. I was thinking about including solitude in that list too, but that creature is kind of awkward since it exiles the creature forever. you can use it as a blinking target and exile all of the opponents' creatures, but that isn't needed. you are blinking your own stuff in and out and draining everyone to death with Agent of the Iron throne and other stuff. you are right about Teferi, I thought the same thing, going over the list, he's quite expensive too, he would be one o my first cuts after the Tundra (OG duals are too rich for me). what this list lacks is a thassa's oracle. if you can blink something infinitely, you draw your whole deck and then you slam that down to win, with some counterspell back up. so that is something I would add to the list for sure. in the black and white deck I have fiend hunter effects. when something comes in, it exiles a thing until it leaves and so you can loop between 3 of them to get infinte ETBs, with the back ground, you draw yuour whole deck, just becareful, Candle keep's ability is not a may ability, you will draw the cards so you can kill yourself.

very insightful ideas. How do you drain with Agent of the Iron Throne? It triggers when things go to the grave. Lots of tokens?

[@MalteLewandowski]

You can build an Artisan version of the deck (Commander variant with only commons and uncommons) for 20-30$, which has almost the same power level. I think you should omit a lot of the "good stuff" cards and focus more heavily on the theme, but this is just my opinion. :)

[@zmollon]

can you share the list?

[@NonoTT]

What happens if we have played winter orb or stasis and we exile it at the end of the turn of our last opponents 🫣😂

[@Roxora098]

The fun police show up XD

[@NonoTT]

@@Roxora098 XD , i would like to do a blink deck and we two good commander, Yorion and Abdel+Candlekeep sage. Yorion can loop very easy and do a lot of things but the kill is very hard, Abdel+Candlekeep sage can kill easier but loop is more hard we need 3 creatures 😭.
