What a Soul of Windgrace deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.
- 6× Evasion that does NOT target or attach — for a commander your own auras and equipment cannot legally touch
- 7× Exile a permanent you control and return it — the button a value-ETB deck presses
- 12× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
- 9× A permanent whose value is in its enter-the-battlefield trigger — the payload a blink deck reuses
- 7× Put your own cards into your graveyard as a resource
- 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
