What a Lord Dregg, Insect Invader deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.
- 16× A creature that HAS the keyword the commander's trigger counts — a card that merely says the word is not one
- 10× Mana from a NONLAND permanent — a commander that doubles nonland mana gets nothing from lands
- 16× Creatures you are happy to sacrifice — a free sac outlet on the commander is worthless with nothing to feed it
- 4× A team pump that actually pumps tokens
- 12× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
- 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
- 1× Answer a whole board at once
- 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
- 7× Refill your hand
