What a Diamond Weapon deck needs

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

• permanent card (its size grows with them)
• self-mill, discard and recursion (the graveyard is a resource its text reads)

The Diamond Weapon deck plan

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

• 8× Evasion that does NOT target or attach — for a commander your own auras and equipment cannot legally touch
• 12× Put your own cards into your graveyard as a resource
• 9× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
• 10× Find the exact card the plan needs
• 3× Answer a whole board at once
• 12× Refill your hand
• 5× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal
• 11× Get ahead on mana

Best cards for Diamond Weapon
