Lore bit of Trazyn: He is the pokemon-collector of the 42nd millenium. He has titans, planets, people, specimen of extinct species, specific MOMENTS entrapped and/or stored in his library of unlimited possibilities. It is said that only the Imperial storages under the Emperor's golden throne can even rival the majesty, horror and glory this being has collected. Also he is a fucking meme, which means he is loved and adored by both fans and Belisarius Cawl. If someone could get in without Trazyn noticing them, they would have possible access to galaxy-ending gear and technology, which Trazyn only has because they are trophies for him. This intel was shared with permission from Ordo Xeno's inquisitor, to make sure you know what to do if you ever find youself captured by this kleptomaniac badass. Praised be the Omnissiah

Did you guys forget about Biotransference? The new Enchantment. You can go infinite in so many more ways than simply with artifacts. You can make stuff into artifacts in your graveyard and pop off in whatever way you want (restrictid to black and colorless of course). "Creatures you control are artifacts in addition to their other types. The same is true for creature spells you control and creature cards you own that aren’t on the battlefield." Last part is the important one.

[@nikola25spasic]

This is CEDH good and has turn 1 wins but time will tell if consistent wins can be had within 3 turns. It looks like it could.

[@chrismythtime]

It’ll probably be one of the decks that has potential to hang at some cedh pods, but he has too many weak spots. Free and cheap counter magic will hit his tutors to prevent them from hitting play/grave. Cast him too early and he’ll probably be removed while your tutor is on the stack. Grave hate can hose his strategy as well as anything that hates artifact activated abilities due to him also having the unfortunate drawback of being an artifact creature himself. He’s a necrotic ooze in the command zone, sure. But a worse version of it because of his personal weak spots. In cedh though, anything is possible considering a chain veil teferi won some larger edh event fairly recently.

[@Dedalus94]

Unless he gets the same generous ruling that necrotic ooze got (see the 1/1/2011 ruling on the Gatherer entry) Trazyn is not "Walking Ballista", and so you cannot remove +1+1 counters from him with that effect, and cards in your graveyard cannot have counters. Same goes for devourer+triskelion, the 1 cost ability for staff of domination. I'm pretty sure Golem Artisan (or Lightning Greaves if you have it on field already), Palladium Myr + Pili-Pala for infinite mana, then retrofitter foundry for infinite thopters (which you then give haste with the golem) works without this errata/ruling. Also, don't forget about Morality Shift to effectively dump your whole deck into the graveyard. Edit: 201.5b is the blanket ruling that allows the reference for the abilities so we're all good. Thanks @Zwolfe123

[@LightBulbPlayz]

It's already in the rules that anytime a card references itself by name it means "this card" . So walking really says "Remove a +1/+1 counter from "this card": It deals 1 damage to any target. So mitch is correct about how this works. Those rulings are just to make it simpler for people to understand without referencing rule numbers.

[@Dedalus94]

@@LightBulbPlayz Ah, ok I've found the blanket ruling, it's a lot easier with this being the case. I just know that if I bring Trazy out at my table and I declare I'm using ballista's ability I'll have to show my receipts. 201.5b for anyone finding this.

[@deifiedtitan]

Is it part of the rules that Trazyn treats [CARDNAME] as his own? I know it's an FAQ for Necrotic Ooze but I haven't a clue if that's actually part of the comprehensive rules that all cards with this effect treat these effects like that. Edit: It is part of the rules. "201.5b If an ability of an object refers to that object by name, and an object with a different name gains that ability, each instance of the first name in the gained ability that refers to the first object by name should be treated as the second name."

[@adamlay7317]

yes my boy Trazyn is awsome I was worried after the last 2 commanders.

[@fetchthebattleaxe]

"Equip" is an activated ability, so he gains the "Equip" ability of all equipment in your graveyard. But he can't use them because he doesn't have the equipment subtype. However, you could first turn him into a vehicle with Swift Reconfiguration, and then turn him into an Equipment with Bludgeon Brawl. Then if Lightning Greaves is in your graveyard, Trazyn would have "Equip 0." Admittedly, this is completely useless... but it's funny.

Yes it does. I can’t wait for everyone that’s pushing this guy so hard finds this out at the table and realizes that necrotic ooze could actually dodge that. I feel like he’s one of those Tergrid type cards. Looks great from a distance, but at the table nobody in the pod will let you have any fun.

[@themrenigma2956]

I have a question regarding the ballista: as it specifies that you put/remove counters from balista, does that still work? The commander doesn't copy the name. (I come from Yu-Gi-Oh where names matter :D )

[@DotHacker99]

Short answer it totally works. Long answer below. Here's the last part of the official rule for necrotic ooze which does the exact same thing except for creatures: "If an activated ability of a card in a graveyard references the card it’s printed on by name, treat Necrotic Ooze’s version of that ability as though it referenced Necrotic Ooze by name instead. For example, if Cudgel Troll (which says “{G}: Regenerate Cudgel Troll”) is in a graveyard, Necrotic Ooze has the ability “{G}: Regenerate Necrotic Ooze.”"

Anytime a card refers to itself using its own name, that just means "this physical card". Clone copies that keep their own name (Sakashima) get the ability saying the new card name. I assume Trazyn works similarly, but I'm not 100% on it. Sorry if this was too wordy.

He has eight of them, and the missing one really pisses him off, so it's best not to mention it.

[@jordan01553]

this deck looks so cool but so many of the cards are quite expensive

[@thestrugglingchef30]

sooooo imma bring up a card that never sees play..........pendant of prosperity....... that is all (JK empowered autogenerater is fantastic as well.) :)

[@flareinc7413]

Buried Alive might go up in price just bc this commander bc if this guy has Haste,you can just cast the spell and win w eg the first combo. O.o

[@chrismythtime]

It’ll increase for a while, but I expect most people that are overhype for this amazing guy won’t keep the deck together once they see how easily it is shut down or casual pods don’t play against it. Needing haste is yet another downside. All of the “1 or 2” card combos always fail to mention that it’s really a 2-3 since you need your commander on the battlefield already and adding a haste enabler just increases that count even further. Theory crafting is one of my favorite aspects of this game and I absolutely love this guy & faction, but I just feel like he’s another card that’s getting too much hype that won’t see much cedh play once people see him shut down so easily at the table. I told a friend that’s going to try him in cedh that he still needs necrotic ooze in the deck to dodge a lot of the hate that shuts his commander down.

$900 for the 42 suggested cards. I would not call that a budget deck.

[@lorcandunne7367]

Can you make a edh deck tech on the new jhoira commander

[@xsorrowxkingx5051]

2 cmc more than Necrotic Ooze, and for artifacts - I can see some really stupid shenanigans already.

[@chrismythtime]

For a worse version of necrotic ooze. Only gets your grave and he’s also an artifact that’s shut down by anything that prevents artifact activation.

[@Adam-Madman]

For 6 mana I really don't think it's broken

[@sw33tshar3]

everything is broken when you need to clickbait

[@Adam-Madman]

@@sw33tshar3 True 😀

[@chrismythtime]

He’d be a lot better if he just wasn’t an artifact himself. In cedh he’s going to try and win in one turn and someone at the table will shut it down every time. Counter him, counter the tutor, removal on him while attempting to tutor. He’s too easy to disrupt and so many people aren’t seeing it or are choosing to ignore it and pretend that needing 3 cards in grave and commander on the field, potentially also needing haste is somehow different from saying I have a 5 card win on the spot combo in my deck.

[@Adam-Madman]

@@chrismythtime in cedh play 6 mana spell as a part of the wincon is really bold move... I agree with you but I really belive this is decently balanced card and not some OP mega crazy broken spell
