What an Aerid Konstrari deck needs

Plays as tokens. What the commander asks of the other 99 — read from the card and checked by hand.

• artifacts (its text counts them)
• blink and recursion aimed at the commander itself (its value is its own enter trigger)
• token payoffs — anthems, sacrifice outlets and go-wide finishers (it makes tokens on repeat)
• mana rocks and dorks beyond the curve (its ability turns spare mana into value)

The Aerid Konstrari deck plan

The roles the Forge fills for this commander, and how many cards of each.

• 10× Mana from a NONLAND permanent — a commander that doubles nonland mana gets nothing from lands
• 6× Exile a permanent you control and return it — the button a value-ETB deck presses
• 4× Evasion that does NOT target or attach — for a commander your own auras and equipment cannot legally touch
• 22× A permanent of the exact NON-creature type the commander counts — artifacts for an artifact commander, enchantments for an enchantress
• 8× A permanent whose value is in its enter-the-battlefield trigger — the payload a blink deck reuses
• 12× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
• 4× A team pump that actually pumps tokens
• 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
• 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
