- AbilityIf damage would be dealt to Sekki, prevent that damage, remove that many +1/+1 counters from Sekki, and create that many 1/1 colorless Spirit creature tokens.
What a Sekki, Seasons' Guide deck needs
Plays as counters. What the commander asks of the other 99 — read from the card and checked by hand.
- +1/+1 counter producers and payoffs (its text places or reads +1/+1 counters)
- self-mill, discard and recursion (the graveyard is a resource its text reads)
- token payoffs — anthems, sacrifice outlets and go-wide finishers (it makes tokens on repeat)
The Sekki, Seasons' Guide deck plan
The roles the Forge fills for this commander, and how many cards of each.
- 15× Put +1/+1 counters on creatures you control, or multiply the ones already there

- 7× Put your own cards into your graveyard as a resource
- 6× 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
- 1× Answer a whole board at once
- 7× Refill your hand
- 2× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal
