Deck Description

Why does this deck work? If we have Possibility Storm out with Mishra, then all of our opponents have to exile any spell they try to cast, essentially cascade into the first random spell off their library that shares a card type with their original spell, cast that instead, and put all cards exiled that way on the bottom of their library.

Whereas we get a free random artifact off our library, and the original artifact we cast from our hand as long as we stack the triggers correctly.

Deck discussion for That's right, it's Mishra CMDR

I....don't see how Mishra works for this deck. To me it seems like just the color scheme, in which case there are numerous other grixis commanders that would actually do something positive. Possibility Storm works just fine without Mishra, and seeing as it is a commander deck, Mishra's ability is useless unless you just want a library shuffle.

I was thinking the same thing. Vial Smasher + Silas Ren would be a better commander, imo.

Mishra's ability actually does something great as long as you stack the triggers correctly. First you cast a spell, and Possibility Storm's ability goes on the stack, you resolve that first, and the first spell you casted is put on the bottom. Then you resolve Mishra's ability, and get out the spell that you just tucked to the bottom with the storm. So you've essentially got pseudo-cascade for all artifact spells.

Is it the best? Not really, but is it fun? Heck yeah.

That is really cool. I dunno, I just don't like having a commander that works with one card out of the 99, personally!

There are a couple other cards that interact with Mishra's ability well, Blood Funnel; you cast a non-creature artifact spell for 2 mana cheaper, and it's trigger goes on the stack, choose not to sac and have it go to your graveyard, then resolve Mishra's abililty and put it on to the battlefield.

Ice Cave: everyone can counter everyone else's stuff, but if they counter your artifacts you just get them back, so you get an awesome effect with wayy less drawback for you.

If you are rich, there is Nether Void, make all spells that every player casts cost 3 more or be countered. So everyone else has to pay the 3 to play the game, but you just choose not to pay, and get your artifacts into play anyway with his ability.

I know that isn't much more, but that is what the 3 tutors are in the deck for. Thank you for checking out the deck.
