What a Liberty Prime, Recharged deck needs
Plays as combat trigger. What the commander asks of the other 99 — read from the card and checked by hand.
- artifacts (its text counts them)
- cheap artifacts, Treasures and tokens to sacrifice (the commander's outlet eats artifacts, not creatures)
- untap effects that reach the commander (it has haste; each untap repeats its tap ability)
- evasion and protection for the commander, and extra combats (its own attack is the engine; it has haste)
