Sauron, the Dark Lord - Commander Deck Tech

Black Market Connections can be used to create many changeling armies for the amass triggers.

Great deck list. Have you looked at Rielle, the Everwise as an include into this deck? You'd get to significantly capitalize on Sauron's 'discard your hand to draw four cards' ability.

this deck is actually pretty fun, I don't have all of the cards ye tbut if you do run this I do recommend a bit more ramp to compete with faster decks

I would love to build Sauron deck with 9 Nazgul.

[@Bruh-pk6ei]

I’m fortunate enough to have one and it’s a lot of fun, especially if you have ways to make all your non wraiths into wraiths

[@jakeszig]

I have one too. I think I enjoy the army building more. I’d rather make a separate wraith deck with a dedicated commander to all 9. That’s just my opinion though.

Ok, if anyone wants to answer some questions: - why do we want Command Beacon? (What is the advantage of having Sauron in your hand instead of the command zone?) - what if someone tries to kill Sauron with a sorcery, they sacrifice their legendary creature, BUT, I counter the sorcery. Does the legendary still gets sacrificed? Or does that only apply when the sorcery comes through? Cheers!

With command beacon it gets around commander tax one time, so if you've cast Sauron a couple of times from the command zone you can use command beacon to put it into your hand and then cast it without the commander tax. I like it in decks with expensive commanders. With the ward, your opponent has to target sauron and sacrifice a creature to pay for the ward, once they've done that you can counter the spell. As sac'ing the creature was part of the cost for the ward it will be gone, and the spell will be countered. I'm pretty sure that's how it works because if they don't pay the ward the spell will just fizzle, but once they've paid it by sac'ing the creature its done and they can't take it back.
