Benedikta Harman (Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker) Rating: 1/10 Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker is a card that was designed for Commander, so it doesnt quite work in 1v1

Marina Vendrell is a 5-color commander that allows you to look at the top seven cards and put all enchantments in your hand, so thats a nice card advantage engine
