I may mention what Ian and Callahan talked about in this episode of The Mindsculptors about them making tier-lists and evaluating cards and commanders. You know the game, Ian. Give us the full shot of our favorite drug we can never get enough of.
And for even more video ideas, when you've hit all of the colors and background and partner commanders, you can then go into commanders released after each video and where they fit (so if Caverns gives us another 4/5 color commander that then sees tourney play, you can bring it up there). Then after that, you can do a general list where you re-rank commanders you have heavily changed your mind on (maybe they fit into a different spot more than you think or something came out that made them a MUCH worse/better choice).
as a Kenrith player, I have to say: I have never been so ofended by something I 100% agree with. Kenrith is a Jack of all trades, master of none. He is good at pretty much anything but not the best for any. Can be a mid range, or Ad Naus deck, but not as consistent as Blue Farm or Rog Silas, he can be reanimator, but not as good as other that Dina, he can be a great mana outlet, but yeah, you usually don't need so many options once you have infinite mana. He can grind in a game, but not even close as Thrasios can. After doing about 8 different Kenrith decks I love him, but one of his main tools it's the secret strategy before playing something. Is it Ad Naus? Hermit Druid? Infinite mana? a Gridndy value machine? I have even seen Stax lists!
Just finished building an Aragorn, the Uniter food chain list which is pretty hot as well. it's got breach shenanigans as well as turning dockside/temur into a kill with the commander
Love to see Jenson/Lurrus dodge the sus and heavy fringe categories. Been brewing the deck for awhile and I think hermit druid stuff ends up being a plan C a lot of the time. The companion restriction forcing the average mana value pretty low makes it great for turbo naus and lurrus's ability makes for some smoother ways into breach lines.
My last comment on this vid. Promise. For the partner commanders. U could choose the big ones. They would each get there own video tier list. Finish the other partners in another video. Then do a final taking only the A and S ranks and ranking each pairing A-D. This gives u a series of content, some shorts material and keeps individual videos at your sweet spot length of time. ❤
you forgot some awesome dudes like the Ur-Dragon, Child of Alara, (Jared Carthalion not so awesome), Jodah Archmage Eternal, Ramos Dragon Engine, Reaper King and many more.
Kenrith is the Tim Duncan of cEDH. So fundamental sound that pilots think he is boring. At the same time, he is also Baskin Robbins. So many differnet flavors that ya just cant choose which is best. So he also remains "unsolved". From what i can see Kenrith, Inalla, and in many ways DawnWaker all are commanders that seem like they can play the best stuff with the best gameplans and have very low variance, that nobody wants to sleeve them up. Maybe this is all a hottake tho. Idk
Interesting to put Sisay and Atraxa in A, since the last three months it's had more conversions in top 16 each then Najeela and Najeela had almost the combined amount of the two in entries.
As Niv reborn player, I have to respectfully disagree. His engine is imo just as strong if not stronger than new Atraxa and flicker effects can make it so you sift through your deck very very fast for those wincons. Personally I think my Niv reborn deck is my most consistent deck. Would be willing to send you my list!
Damn, I am no longer subscribing to you. Clearly you are not a cedh player. How could you not put the greatest 5 color commander of all time, Morophon Moonfolk Tribal as S tier?
I think Kenrith (or a version of Kenrith) got a huge boost with the latest set release. Agatha of the Vile Cauldron can turn Kenrith into one of the grindiest value engines in the game. One mana, instant speed Reanimates are broken. Plus I think Kenrith RoL stax is a more interesting version, rather than playing a 5 color goodstuff pile.
Yuriko is an amsome 4 color commander…UB w/2 color sleeves. I go with the purple matte dragon shield and smoke color inner sleeves. Perfect 4 color commander
Fantastic work as always. The partner tier list seems like it will be a beast; I look forward to seeing how you handle it!

Watching this video, get to the part where you talk about yidris and mention how one of your favorite cards is song of creation! Same here !
10:35 your enthusiasm is contagious - thanks and love to listen and learn :)

Love to hear that Jegantha still has a decent shot as a stand-alone Commander, especially as most people now associate it with Sisay.

Top of C Tier? I'll take it! We stay Yidris believers!
Gonna go drink a beer in silence to honor my yidris deck's low rating.
If it makes you feel any better I love the deck too 😅
Oh I know. I mostly wanted an excuse to crack a beer :P. Bringing Yidris to a tournament tomorrow though. (not a new thing for me, but is relevant)
@jccollins14 curious to hear how he does!
@@kevinsimmons5343 will report back tonight with tournament results (and list), tourneys in 90 minutes. $2k tourney, $1k top prize (cradle)
Love your content !
My 5color omnath list is crying……… peer/necro list

Good stuff thanks for the video
Ian is my infinite mana outlet
when i play sisay i never lose.
Cool list! What about 5c Omnath, aka Bob-nath?
definitive partner commander cedh tier list next?
That's the hope
That one is going to take a lot of work so it will definitely be a hot minute
you forgot some awesome dudes like the Ur-Dragon, Child of Alara, (Jared Carthalion not so awesome), Jodah Archmage Eternal, Ramos Dragon Engine, Reaper King and many more.
Lets fucking goooooooo I've been waiting for this vid!

Looking forward to your thoughts on sans-w
Lol. Nvr mind
Phyrexian Omnath stays forgotten.
Interesting to put Sisay and Atraxa in A, since the last three months it's had more conversions in top 16 each then Najeela and Najeela had almost the combined amount of the two in entries.
Right but Najeela has been doing this for almost 5 years now
@ComedIanMTG Sorry, I thought the tier list was based on current meta and not historical
Would you be able to make a breya decklist with the cards you listed
As Niv reborn player, I have to respectfully disagree.
His engine is imo just as strong if not stronger than new Atraxa and flicker effects can make it so you sift through your deck very very fast for those wincons.
Personally I think my Niv reborn deck is my most consistent deck. Would be willing to send you my list!
Yeah go for it
I still love food chain tazri, I know it's power crept but I love allies 😔
Sissay still at A... Interesting.
still want the partner/background one, but I understand why it’s taking so long
Tiamat dreamhalls please❤
Omnath the angry jelly bean lol
Omnath, Locus of All is easily A tier
for me Kenrith is S++, just that
Damn, I am no longer subscribing to you. Clearly you are not a cedh player. How could you not put the greatest 5 color commander of all time, Morophon Moonfolk Tribal as S tier?
I thought the day would never come!
Yet it did
You are missing the best deck in the format ! Go-Shintai 😅
Rip no phyrexian omnath. Really thought he'd be worth a look.
I think Kenrith (or a version of Kenrith) got a huge boost with the latest set release. Agatha of the Vile Cauldron can turn Kenrith into one of the grindiest value engines in the game. One mana, instant speed Reanimates are broken.
Plus I think Kenrith RoL stax is a more interesting version, rather than playing a 5 color goodstuff pile.
I'm ready
Yuriko is an amsome 4 color commander…UB w/2 color sleeves. I go with the purple matte dragon shield and smoke color inner sleeves. Perfect 4 color commander
Got a najeela deck list?
It's a deck I think I've played a total of 4 times 🤣
No omnath locus of all? Is there just not enough on the commander to make an opinion?
Incrimental card advantage, no combo outlet, very conditional mana advantage. It's in an awkward spot for cedh.
S Tier Najeela
