How Does Companion Work in Commander
Honorable Mentions: Surprisingly, during the So Paulo regionals, one of the top 8 of the event, Thiago Giovannetti, used a deck based on the Whimsicott-VStar line, which surprised everyone and made the card valued, before being considered a meme card: Whimsicott-V (Brilliant Stars 65/172) Whimsicott-V has 250 HP, Psychic-type, weakness to Metal-type, no resistance, for an energy as a retreat cost, and has two attacks (one of which is VStar): Trick Wind (for one Psychic Energy and two Colorless Energy) based on 160 damage, and during your opponent's next turn, they won't be able to play Item Cards or add Special Energy from their hand to their Pokmon
This deck looks to mimic some of the strengths of Merfolk by getting on the board early and having ways to convert access cards in the hand into free spells
Spot removal like Beast Within, Swords to Plowshares, Vindicate, Mire in Misery, Cryptic Command, Decimate, and Abrade is also helpful for a more surgical approach to problems at the table
Thankfully, +1/+1 counters, equipment and team-buffs can ensure opponents wont want to pay the ten
However, the Top Black Ramp Spell in Commander has to be Cabal Coffers
