The Artificer Who Stole My Heart Hi everyone! Welcome back to The Knowledge Pool! This week I'll be writing about a commander that I've been itching to talk about since her release: Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain. In fact, I would go so far as to say that Jhoira is my favorite new commander of 2018, making […]

Leading the War Hi everyone! Last time on The Knowledge Pool we talked about one of my nightmare decks. This time we're going to look at one of my oldest commanders, but one that I no longer play. We're exploring one of my retired commanders, Aurelia, the Warleader. There's a lot to unpack with a commander […]

The Knowledge Pool - Marchesa, the Black Rose (Nightmare Series Part 1)
November 28, 2018 by
Scot Sutton
Your Worst Best Nightmare Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Knowledge Pool! This week we're beginning a new miniseries I'm lovingly referring to as the "Nightmare Series." The concept of this series is simple: demo the decks that haunt our dreams. I think most of us with consistent playgroups have a deck or two that […]

The Knowledge Pool - Omnath, Locus of Rage (Lands Part 2)

Hocus Pocus Locus Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Knowledge pool! Way back in September I introduced a two part series discussing a few of the different flavors of land based decks in Commander. Last time our focus was Tatyova, Benthic Druid, and we talked about the Simic color combination and the advantages that it […]

Bernardo Melibeu 
No Guilds, No Masters Hello EDHREC! It's time for the best part of Ravnica: the guildless cards of the set, of course! After all, we all know that no one likes the guilds. #EndOfTheGuildPact. All jokes aside, in this article I'm going to cover the red, green, artifact, and land cards that don't have any […]

The Knowledge Pool - Riku of Two Reflections

Scot Sutton
Seeing Double Hi everyone! Welcome back to The Knowledge Pool! I feel like every week I proclaim my devotion to Temur in some form, and this week will be no different. In fact, the only difference this week is that we will actually be looking at a Temur deck! One of my favorite aspects of the […]

Intellectual Offering - Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer
August 23, 2018 by
Sam Alpert 
Welcome to a surprise installment of Intellectual Offering. This is not only a surprise for you, dear reader, but also for me. Lately I’ve been suffering a some Commander nihilism. I’ve felt like whatever I brewed was unoriginal, uninspired, and ultimately not worth building. Little did I know that Commander 2018 would have the cure […]

Commander Focus — Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire
July 27, 2018 by
Nate Burgess 
Vaevictis, New and Improved Behold, Vaevictus Asmadi, the Dire! A new upgrade to an old classic. The previous version of this Elder Dragon had firebreathing, as well as treebreathing and swampbreathing. While this ability might be fascinating to reptilian nutritionists, it's a bit mediocre compared to what modern commanders can do. The upgraded version gets […]
