What a Rescue, Pepper Potts deck needs

Plays as ETB value. 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)
• counter doublers and proliferate (it grows only itself with +1/+1 counters)

The Rescue, Pepper Potts deck plan

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

• 6× Exile a permanent you control and return it — the button a value-ETB deck presses
• 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
• 6× Put +1/+1 counters on creatures you control, or multiply the ones already there
• 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
• 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
• 2× Answer a spell or ability before it resolves
• 1× Answer a whole board at once
• 7× Refill your hand
