Cut-Rate Commander - Episode 67 - Featuring The Archimandrite from The Brothers War
#mtg #mtgbro #edh #commander
Its time to go back again to the events of The Brothers War and the tragedy that was the fall of the Ivory Towers - where The Archimandrite and the forces of the Union of the Third Path stood against Mishra's forces in one final battle.
In this build, we’ll be aiming to use The Archimandrite’s unique blend of life gain, card draw, and multi-tribe support to turn it into self-contained synergistic machine that will produce more life gain, more card advantage, and more damage output from our tribe members. Of course, that means we’ll be running a solid number of tribe member’s, mainly monks, to not only benefit from The Archimandrite’s AOE pump but also empower it even further with the life gain and built in evasion/first strike/double strike the possess to get even more value from it, additional sources of life gain to empower them even further as well as proc out monks various noncreature spell payoffs for even more value, and a decent number of ways to remove our maximum hand size and generate additional card advantage alongside our commanders built in draw to maximize The Archimandrite’s passive life gain while also giving us the resources we need to keep our gameplan going – until we’re ready to deliver the finishing strike to our opponents in the form of gigantic, evasive monks.
