@@TwinGunnerHaseo just a little more restricted, but the amount of white and red 1/1 token spawners fits the “creatures under 2 power” stipulation. Could be really wicked with mondrak, glory dominus to spawn in double the tokens them run krinko and a couple white planes walkers like elspeth and/or wandering emperor for more board control, maybe ajani too. I’m getting bad ideas off this already 😂
Missed opportunity to have Indestructible, so it would line up with Porcelain Doll and Stuffy Doll. I wonder if those two will be errata'd into Toys instead of Constructs...
I honestly wished it has Skulk. Less in line with the other dolls but fits the creepy animated doll theme AND is in line with her own theme of wanting your creature(s) to have low power
@@matthewdavis6741Would have been a bit too strong with indestructible. White already has ways to make this thing not die swinging into a packed board, so being able to do it for free would be overkill.
I just love the visual of Arabella wielding a trusty frying pan, it's gotta be bigger than she is. That is, until her trigger gives her an extra 20 power.
@@emanuelmendez8122 field-tested frying pan is from lotr and it gives equipped creature +x/+x whenever you gain life. So, her trigger gains you a bunch of life and the equipment makes her that much bigger. It even makes a 1/1 halfling when it enters.
As soon as I saw toys as a new type I was hoping for a doll commander, actually wanting to make a doll deck for a good while, and I think this might be it.
Cradle of Vitality is a must include in Arabella. Sure which ever creature you buff will not be a 1/1 anymore but if you buff Arabella or sth like Anim Pakal that are a lot of new tokens. Especially since you can stack the ability to gain life and the counters over Anim Pakals trigger. And as long as you have a steady income of tokens you can also play Nykthos Paragon. Sure you have no more 1/1s after the swing but you could turn 10 1/1s (including the commander) into 10 x 11/11s.
Planning to splash in some Krenko / Goblin package. Get infinite goblins and mana, and swing Arabella for game, or have impact tremors with some damage multipliers to chip away at opponent's health whenever Krenko creates a token.
@@Connor_Crain thats correct rule 508.4 and 508.3a but in a deck where every creature except for elesh norn and reveilark has 2 or less power it’s still gonna be good
I'm very tempted to make a weird voltron pillow fort deck with Arabella. Because you could just make her unblockable and keep all the little guy's as blockers and the power source of her spirt bomb. I'd probably also want to run some good walls, all the white token doublers, and some spells that give extra combat steps.
Although this is not the best commander, it's certainly one of the most straight forward to build around. I like the list of bombs you've listed here that go well with it and you can certainly use a few but the bread and butter of this deck should be low curve spells that bring out multiple creatures at a time. Companion and manifest dread are great for this and there are tons of commons and uncommons that will fill your deck up in this role. I've only been drafting for 2 years since Brothers and I've already been able to build a deck around this using only the cards I've drafted.
I have had a MacCready deck that really hasn’t been working well, and Arabella immediately became a way i could remake that deck without wasting the cards i already bought. No eric Scales and Meekstone are two cards i feel work amazing in it
am i wrong or could i stack the arabella trigger and then the rabble rousing trigger so rabble rousing resolves first, have more creatures and then more damage with arabella?
I'm having the hardest time doing any Boros commander deck. I always want more or less, the synergie doesn't stick with me or whatever. I will try that one for sure! The build restriction might make it easier to get a good 100 cards together.
Arabella with lifelink, does this work with her second ability like I think it does? If you swing with her and you have a total of 5 creatures with power 2 or less, which would deal 5 damage to each opponent. Would you gain 15 life just off her pinging everybody since it pings each of them for 5, and then gain another 5 life for the gaining life clause in her ability for a total of 20 life?
Arabella is definitely a tokens matter deck. Pump out a bunch of soldiers, thopters or anything that's 2 power or less and that burn from the effect is gonna hurt like hell.
Mine is going on 5 weeks undefeated in my group,the players always seem to forget who my commander is about half way through and then they start chipping damage at each other….All then for me to tap out and cast a storm heard witch using nets me around 35-37 tokens…..then I attack and kill 3 players at once 🤣 I just play again this evening too……. She still remains undefeated ♥️
I'll admit I am an n00b in commander but I don't think he is giving House Cartographer enough credit. First off it hits ALL lands so that is guaranteed land draw. Sure it you only get the land into your hand but you will never miss a land drop if it tapped. Second (speaking of which) just of the top of my head and with out looking card up, Springleaf Drum only $.20 and the expensive one Paradise Mantle at $4.56. If you have the money you can go with the busted and ridiculously priced Eathcraft like $145-150. Having played that card, yeah that’s the right price. Busted and hasn’t been reprinted. So you tap the Cartographer for mana and you also grab a land out of your deck. Third I count 94 cards with the key word Convoke. Again tapping for mana and gaining a land card out of your deck so you will have a greater percentage to draw some gas. And fourth there are several "tap an untapped creature you control" effects. Heck there is a commander in Bloomburrow that does just that. There are others that have that effect like: Glare of Subdual 2GW lets you tap down other creatures at the cost of your own being tapped. Kyren Negotiations 2RR tap your creature to ping a player. Even though it would be a sub-optimal play you could even use Baseball Bat to tap it. Just put it on a creature you want to attack with.
Honestly i think your missing the point of this commander, your doing a go wide strategy thats honestly super boring and more or less countered in exactly the way you would expect. She doesn't require her friends to attack nor does she care if they are good at attacking. So instead surround her with other annoying things that are impossible to kill, like squee, norin, and stuffy doll. Then you only need to provide a safe way for her to attack while being resilient against sweeps. Another nasty trick is targeting her with your own maze of ith, you get the attack trigger while never actually risking her body.

It's on attack not on damage done, so even if blocks happen you get the trigger, that's NUTS!!!
Reconnaissance would be an auto include.
If you think that’s nuts look at mishra, claimed by gix. It’s this but on steroids and rakados not boros
You literally play tokens haste win. Wow.
@@taeworldcj6998what I was thinking like this is literally boros Mishra but with stipulations

And in the colors with token and damage doublers? Definitely building this!
Goblin bombardment deck?
Zinnia valleys voice would love this
Cept it's a ledgendary booo
@@Beyblade_jedi That doesn't matter too much. Sure two triggers would be nice but it's still a massive amount of damage.
that's what I'm saying
Arabella x Delney
Unblockable
Double trigger
End of the game xD

i wish we had the technology to rotate room cards 90 degrees TT
We do
What this deck wants is Cavalcade of Calamity, Raid Bombardment and Chandra's Spitfire.
Is there a spell that tripples damage from red sources?
@@TheKillerman3333 City on Fire
Just combo Midnight Guard + Elemental mastery to make sure ...
and Breakthrough the line to make ARABELLA UNBLOCKABLE to make sure its survive
if they don't go back and make creepy doll a toy i will be very sad

Lol I can't believe they actually printed another o-ring effect with the old template.

My Alesha who smiles at death deck is gonna love this
If you bring it back with Alesha I don’t think it triggers since the declare attackers step is over by the time it hits the battlefield

Use with Delney
It double the Trigger, and make the Toy less blockable
I'm doing that in Standard 😅
I have had a MacCready deck that really hasn’t been working well, and Arabella immediately became a way i could remake that deck without wasting the cards i already bought. No eric Scales and Meekstone are two cards i feel work amazing in it
Give it indestructable with fear of missing out would be kinda crazy
Jolly Balloon Man, Arabella Abandoned Doll - Boros EDH players eating good with this set!!!
Why the grey border? Is that new for gold artifacts?
Krenko mob boss goes weeeree with this commander
am i wrong or could i stack the arabella trigger and then the rabble rousing trigger so rabble rousing resolves first, have more creatures and then more damage with arabella?
Arabela make me think she will have good synergie with "Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon" but I'm not sure between the 2 who should be the commander.
Delney loves this.
I think you forgot about extra combat steps and copy taget triggered abilities effect.
I'm trying to make 2cmc commanders in every color combo and we FINALLY have one that's actually interesting in boros. I'm so ready for this.
arabella- voltron wall deck comes to mind :)
1:40 this as a 99 in a Baylen the hay maker
Is Arabella a reference to Annabell of the conjuring franchise!!!
Cannot see entire decklist in link
I'm having the hardest time doing any Boros commander deck. I always want more or less, the synergie doesn't stick with me or whatever. I will try that one for sure! The build restriction might make it easier to get a good 100 cards together.
1:07 No.1 my exact thought😂
Also great in the 99 for Otharri decks.
This set had two good boros commanders!
Does the damage from the dolls’ ability count as commander damage?
Perfect for the jolly balloon man
That would be a very good upgrade for the zinnia valleys voice precon
Could this work with jolly Ballon man and 99 red ballons??
Seems good in Otharri, Suns' Glory deck

i think yes... lifelink it said Damage not combat damage.. its same as Infect.. Grafted exoskeleton .. BUM 5 poison ocunter
Arabella is definitely a tokens matter deck. Pump out a bunch of soldiers, thopters or anything that's 2 power or less and that burn from the effect is gonna hurt like hell.
JUST preordered Duskmourn all 4 sets for $130!!
You can run this in ed, pauper edh, and tiny leaders
Man I wonder if it works with Marton Stromgald
This card synergies very well with living weapon (make 0/0 gem) and For Mirrodin cards (make 2/2 rebels)., too.
Mine is going on 5 weeks undefeated in my group,the players always seem to forget who my commander is about half way through and then they start chipping damage at each other….All then for me to tap out and cast a storm heard witch using nets me around 35-37 tokens…..then I attack and kill 3 players at once 🤣
I just play again this evening too…….
She still remains undefeated ♥️
This arabella in anim pakal is going to be huge
I planned to add her to my Zinnia offsprings deck :)
Rite of the moth would be really bad for my teysa karlov reanimate deck, considering it would snuff out the death trigger of whatever i bring back
My buddy gave me an Arabella the other night after he pulled 2. The squirrell deck may be put on hold for a second 😂
Why not build goblin tribal with Krenko as a secondary commander in the 99? So much fun to be had with this commander
Give the doll myriad and you essentially win with a few creatures

Meekstone
So, we have Chucky, or technically, Annabelle in mtg now. Well, Dusk mourn is something definitely buying.
Not even thinking about Commander with this card. Spicy two-of in Boros Convoke?

I like your thinking. You could even run a light wall package just for funsies.
Arabella with zinnia as commander and cadric soul kindler 😂
Is the deck list supposed to only have ten cards?
Im just gonna tutor Army of the damned.. Make the table go, damnnn.
Why put a blue in a red white ?
Baylen players sweating over the doll
Boros is eating good this set.
She goes nice in zinnia
Arabella is just diet mishra, but white instead of black.
Add Blade of Selves give scary doll Myrid.
Just dont let the Arabella deck steal someone's scute swarm or your in for a world of hurt .
*_*me who made a doll deck using Myrs and other similar doll-like cards*_*
WHY ISN'T IT BLUE?! >.
What's nuts is it doesn't even say non token damn feels more like a rare then a uncommon to me
That demon doll is a token ping deck wet dream
The deck list has 10 cards plus the commander. Blame Eddie?
oh my god, and it's only an uncommon?
I can put my delney deck and change the commander 🤣
Now I’ll never get it in a draft with everyone is talking about it
I'm sorry but I can't see it not being Annabelle but op uncommon
Just put this card in Isshin EDH
Annabelle lol
It's going to get banned pretty fast.
You mean like nadu?
If Nadu can stay, arrabella can stay@@djboss2012
ah, yes, valley rotcaller for boros token decks
I have to put you on x.75 speed 😔
