Commander Deck Help forum

Howdy y'all, lets talk about the new commander Evra, Halcyon Witness whomst with the right nut draw, can start dropping players on turn 2.
Play Plains for turn, Mana Crypt for free, tap it for Sol Ring and Mana Vault. Play Lotus Petal for white, tap everything and play your commander. Next turn, play a land for turn, swap some health and power, and you can annihilate some players. Bonus points if you start with Leyline of Sanctity so people can't target you with burn spells.

It could happen. I've had all my accel in my opening hand for karn and played Myr Battlesphere on turn 1 or 2... But you are looking at the god hand to pull this off.

Or people can drop you turn 3 with any burn for 4 or anything with 4 power (or 2-3 if they have DS).

it's a very risky play and kill round 2 will not happen often. in addition you are not at the shelter of a Path to Exile or Pongify

I can see it now, a player taps out to activate Evra's ability, opponent responds with Humble or activates Serendib Sorcerer ability lol

I mean it's practically a 6-card combo with no protection or redundancy in a 99-card singleton deck. While it is possible, it is very unlikely and should not be the premise of an entire deck.

Pretty good, but it has to compete with my Jhoira, Turn 0 Combo Captain! Good luck ;)
