Hello dear krakens!
Capenna is out there and so it's time to our Top10 cards from the set and commander decks. There's a lot of cards in New Capenna that didn't make the cut, the set is really great and these are ours honorable mentions:
Void Rend
An Offer You Can't Refuse
Smuggler's Share
Rocco, Cabaretti Caterer
Sinister Concierge
Urabrask, Heretic Praetor
Raffine, Scheming Seer
10. NEW TRIOME CICLE
It's a little cheating, but we'll put 5 cards here. Triomes are a great option for T1 fetch and now this cicle is complete with the bant, grixis, jund, naya and esper ones.
9. THE BEAMTOWN BULLIES
Wow, what a fun commander to play with. It's not everyday that such a fun combo deck is given to us and we had already seen some players trying to refine the list at its best. Will it be too strong? Will it resist a ban? At the end of the day it's a combo with the commander and just one other card, so we must keep an eye on it.
8. PROFESSIONAL FACE-BREAKER
A lovely card that offers ramp and card advantage in the manners that red can do. This card is pure gas and may help some aggro and midrange decks reach victory.
7. VIVIEN ON THE HUNT
Don't get fooled by the big mana value on this card. Vivien is a Planeswalker with a pod effect that may enable much combos and plays, bringing to the battlefield just what you need do go off.
6. UNLICENSED HEARSE
Now this is a great graveyard hate! It may go in any deck, it exiles two cards and when you feel safe you can attack with a big bad boy. Such a great addition to the format when we have some great commanders using the grave.
5. LETHAL SCHEME
A nice removal that hits creatures and planeswalkers, can be casted for free with convoke, put counters at your creatures and fill you graveyard. Sounds pretty strong to me.
4. IN TOO DEEP
Man, a two mana split second removal that can hit creatures and planeswalkers in blue? This is nuts and will make many people angry, it has a slot in every mono u deck I'd build.
3. GRAND CRESCENDO
An Heroic Intervention for white, oh and you might get some creature tokens if you have some mana remaining. This is great for the aggro decks that we see making a presence on the format right now and might just win the game protecting from a mass removal.
2. LUXIOR, GIADA'S GIFT
A versatile equipment that can be tutored with Urza's Saga, Luxior can be in many different decks, like making a really strong Yoshimaru as an aggro option, in a combo deck with Devoted Druid so you can get infinity G mana or in a control deck, using your planeswalkers to beatdown an stranded opponent.
1. OB NIXILIS, THE ADVERSARY
Ob Nixilis true power to the format isn't pretty much revealed yet. It's a powerful card in the early game, when making two planeswalkers for 3 mana can give a hard time to your opponent. I see a future for it in BR decks, if you don't deal with this probably-two-buddies soon it might be your doom.
