I been playing this deck for a few weeks now and it is really powerful. When you get a field of Illusions in play players have a dilemma, they can board wipe but then you get to play you hand for free. I play with a low instant/Sorcery count so a board wipe just means a board shift for me as I will just play out my hand. I added the Jace and lab man to this deck but I have always won by combat damage way before they become relevant in the deck.

[@bradwinward1237]

Very interesting/helpful comment! I'm building this deck right now and the insight about having a low instant sorcery count is helpful. I will keep that in mine

[@bradwinward1237]

Mind*

[@laharlfan71]

@@bradwinward1237 Yup, i build this as well and am always on the lookout for permanents that enable Card draw, personnally i find Mulldrifter a very good fit in this as well as an Azami Lady of scrolls

[@xxProfessorWhatxx]

I've been waiting for an illusion tribal commander for SO LONG

[@Veon97]

Awesome deck, I think also enchantments which lets you draw an extra card like Teferi's Ageless Insight are premium in a deck like this!

[@kevinfrank8164]

This deck seems super powerful. Anytime you get benefits from drawing cards, which you need to do anyway, you can have a big advantage. Throw in getting to cheat mana costs and you have a hell of a commander.

[@JonLeitheusser]

Glad you did this one! I really liked her when I first saw her. Hadn't thought of the Umezawa inclusion!

[@mateotrimboli1232]

Awesome decktech DJ, thank you very much!

[@BokuAMite]

The fact that “You find the villain’s lair” is even suggested to play in any deck proves how unreasonably good “faithless looting” is

[@FakeDonut]

Awesome stuff! I'll use this as an inspiration. I built orvar befor, but my playgroup banned me from playing it, so i need a new monoblue deck 😅

[@Arohan71]

I love this card for my Tetsuko deck. I saw it and nearly lost my mind.

[@jorochimaru]

Helm of the Host may be good in this deck to put on your commander, get double or triple the Illusions plus double or triple effects when the Illusions die

[@amamam95]

But helm of the host does nor overule levendary rule, does it?

[@jorochimaru]

@@amamam95 It does. The copies that the helm makes make them non legendary creatures

[@acepinoy]

Great video! There’s so much support for this kind of deck, can’t wait to brew it myself. One spicy illusion creature card to consider including would be Spark Double. Lots of awesome creature and planeswalker cards that you could target!

[@matteobagni1235]

It's only your control, especially good on the commander nevertheless

[@acepinoy]

@@matteobagni1235 I forgot to mention that but yes you’re correct.

[@nicolechansawang4054]

saw this commander and started building, couldn't resist the brain with legs

[@mitchwhite8941]

Thanks! I was hoping for a deck tech on this commander!

[@TheMrBigShot96]

Man I've been tinkering with this deck for a bit. And then boom a jumbo deck tech. My sign to build it then lol

[@dhcmatias]

Minn + Meloku + High Tide/Extraplanar Lens = infinite Mana, infinite Meloku tokens, infinite token ETB.

[@BaikenAndEggs]

Minn + Meloku go infinite with a lot of things. It's a really bonkers combo. I love it!

[@CodiTC]

This deck looks pretty sweet.

[@originof27]

I was just talking about wanting to build around Minn earlier today while playing Magic.

[@drongobrat6471]

I saw this on command zone (the episode you and jimmy did) and was instantly hyped for this commander so i just had to check out your build of it!

[@jacket2848]

Been using her in my Grazilaxx deck, which has been very fun. Replacing the token every time you attack is hilarious

[@ethanjames6048]

This card looks awesome, surprisingly powerful

[@thomasleonffu1644]

Time to shoutout a lucky content creator, DJ, you rock B)

[@dungeonrancher]

I totally slept on this. Good stuff!

[@laharlfan71]

Teferi's Ageless Insight would make it more likely to make an illusion every turn, otherwise maybe a Reflections of Littjara to double some of our illusions and make it so that Ixidron or perplexing test is even more one sided, maybe test out Deeka as well, her tokens aren't illusions but she can make sure our tokens go through

[@laharlfan71]

Blade of selves is also a nice one to consider, attach to Minn's token, they get boosted and your opponents will be hesitant to block the myriad copies, Chronozoa gets a nice added bonus in this deck as well

[@rocknut144]

I have this deck I made sure to add blade of selves for extra fun

[@markmather8222]

Great vid, this deck looks really fun!

[@pauldyson8098]

DJ, could we start an indie rock band called The Nameless 2/2s?

[@pauldyson8098]

Illusionary Servant is probably better than Illusory Angel here. The "cast another spell first) basically makes Angel (at least) a four-drop.

[@gonzluisd]

Jumbo is so underrated!

[@gonzluisd]

Mind's Eye

[@donman7307]

as a customer request I would love to see kamigawa, newcapenna, jumpstart, commander legends, theros beyond death top 50 mono blue cards.

[@apgamer4053]

8:38 i run ixidron still becuse its fun only caviot is it flips minn aswell if you dont get her out first then you dont get your perms on death

[@jaredremedies8730]

This deck looks so fun

[@luishuesca984]

But wouldn’t skullclamp not work with the x/1 minn tokens since they don’t hit the graveyard? Unless I’m misunderstanding what happens to tokens when they die

[@theknghtofni3912]

tokens do hit the graveyard like a normal creature would! they just vanish after hitting the graveyard

[@pauldyson8098]

Very astute point about Meloku

[@phgtxxx5028]

Super easy to make infinite blue mana with old Meloku. So many possibilities

[@Mangamaskinen]

Been trying to work on a budget version for a smiliar deck since she was revealed but I just can't seem to find good replacements to the most expensive cards (I find Toothy Expensive for reference). Has anyone got any tips or suggestions? Illusions was my first deck back in the day when I started and I really want an EDH deck focused on that, so happy about this commander

[@natecolonna9359]

There's lots of cheap instant speed cards that draw 2 to help get Minn triggers on every turn. They aren't as reliable as expensive cards like toothy or consecrated sphinx, but they'll easily get the job done. Behold the multiverse, chemisters insight, thirst for knowledge/meaning, and tragic lesson all trigger minn and are super cheap

[@MATEEMPAINTER]

Amazing

[@jasonmccoy3280]

Can you do a Alena and halana. Going around with the riot mechanic.

[@amodking]

Here is my issue.. I want to pump my tokens but not the defense because ideally I want them to die to do the strongest things in magic. Cheat mana costs and ideally I want that cheating of mana cost to be effects that helps me draw more effectively on each turn. So not only I’ll be hitting my land drops my token game will be constant so losing a few is no issue because I can regain them fast. Those token pump cards are great but they don’t protect my commander and pump the toughness, ideally 1 toughness I can abuse the rogue with 1 toughness or less and skull clamp which is powerful card draw. Ixidron is great but also very very bad removing the point of having high powered illusions to cheat mana costs.

[@TauanAzevedo]

I love it i wanna it ^^

[@theRealTyanStrategy]

Hell ya!

[@biotopebiologist5030]

I got the secret sauce noone is talking about. Attunement, standstill, and archmage ascension. I would steer clear of sorceries. I'm only running two. Getting permanents out and threatening people for even attacking you seems to be a strong strategy.

[@dracosdiabolis1769]

On card would just make this a blue aggro is Tetsuko Umerzawa, Fugitive. Lmao may have to brew this up. Roflmao really should wait till after I watch the video before I make a comment. Lmao Tho Illusionist Bracers on Minn Double the draws Double the illusions

[@TheKumidori]

But illusionist bracer only works for activated abilities, minn has none?
