What a Syr Armont, the Redeemer deck needs

Plays as voltron. What the commander asks of the other 99 — read from the card and checked by hand.

• blink and recursion aimed at the commander itself (its value is its own enter trigger)
• auras and equipment worth moving, and bodies to carry them (its text attaches or counts them)
• a wide board of creatures and tokens for the team pump

The Syr Armont, the Redeemer 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
• 14× Equipment and Auras — the things a suit-up commander's trigger and plan are actually made of
• 8× A permanent whose value is in its enter-the-battlefield trigger — the payload a blink deck reuses
• 12× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
• 5× Make the commander connect — a body that never deals combat damage never triggers
• 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
