I sought to create a budget-friendly limited environment that's easy to pick up but challenging to master, based around Magic's best format. Synergy is king here, players are rewarded for taking high-ceiling cards that combined with their chosen commander make decks much more than the sum of their parts. > >>>### 📖 **Format & Rules** 📖 <<< >--- >{1}: [Commanders](https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/k2c?f=tag%3ACommander) are drafted first in 1 pack of 10 {2}: 60 card decks are drafted in 3 packs of 20 {3}: All commanders have "Choose a Background" and all mono-colored commanders have "Partner", allowing you to have two commanders as long as one of them is a background or both of them are mono-colored {4}: Color identity of your commander(s) only determines which basic lands may be used, allowing players to splash if they pick up enough fixing {5}: Games follow [pauper commander rules](https://www.pdhhomebase.com/rules), life totals start at 25 with 21 commander damage >>> >### {W/U} {U/B} {B/R} {R/G} {G/W} **Archetypes** {W/B} {B/G} {G/U} {U/R} {R/W} > >--- >[![azorius-header.png](https://i.postimg.cc/JhPCYd5w/azorius-header.png)](https://postimg.cc/gwX7ns74) > >{W/U} Recur enter-the-battlefield effects for fun and value or adopt a more proactive approach and soar over your opponent with flyers > >--- ><<[[!Mistmeadow Witch]][[!Azorius Aethermage]][[!Empyrean Eagle]][[!Soulherder]]>> <<[[!Oji, the Exquisite Blade]][[!3f5882a5-ea4c-4b2b-bcf9-7d15087d8bd4]][[!Kangee, Sky Warden]][[!Cloudblazer]]>> >[![dimir-header.png](https://i.postimg.cc/PfBJMPqW/dimir-header.png)](https://postimg.cc/0r09k5Dj) > >{U/B} Get in with evasive creatures that grant card and tempo advantage when they connect or pick up some zombies for a tribal subtheme > >--- ><<[[!Inkfathom witch]][[!Ramirez DePietro, Pillager]][[!Lazotep chancellor]][[!Silver-fur master]]>> <<[[!diregraf captain]][[!gleaming overseer]][[!the mouth of sauron]][[!ingenious infiltrator]]>> >![rakdos-header.png](https://i.postimg.cc/k4119X8N/Rakdoscrown.png) > >{B/R} Kill and burn your way through your opponent's board while your commander keeps the pressure on until the killing blow > >--- ><<[[!c94cd726-8d67-4510-ad56-3ead1931214b]][[!Azra oddsmaker]][[!Judith, the Scourge Diva]][[!mahadi, emporium master]]>> <<[[!mayhem devil]][[!garna, Bloodfist of keld]][[!ogre siegebreaker]][[!tor wauki the younger]]>> >[![gruul-header.png](https://i.postimg.cc/xjGXRLXK/gruul-header.png)](https://postimg.cc/5j099Yq0) > >{R/G} Stack as much power on the board as possible, either spread across your beaters or all in for a commander damage win > >--- ><<[[!picnic ruiner]][[!targ nar, demon-fang gnoll]][[!Tattermunge witch]][[!feral animist]]>> <<[[!Cactusfolk Sureshot]][[!tuya bearclaw]][[!leafkin avenger]][[!samut, tyrant smasher]]>> >[![selesnya-header.png](https://i.postimg.cc/65mtLQfr/selesnya-header.png)](https://postimg.cc/ZCpGJ4gn) > >{G/W} Build your team tall and wide to create impenetrable board states.
