What a Titania, Gaea Incarnate deck needs

Plays as lands. 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)
• +1/+1 counter producers and payoffs (its text places or reads +1/+1 counters)
• land ramp, extra land drops and landfall payoffs (its text counts or triggers on lands)
• lands (its size grows with every one you control)
• self-mill, discard and recursion (the graveyard is a resource its text reads)
• mana rocks and dorks beyond the curve (its ability turns spare mana into value)

The Titania, Gaea Incarnate deck plan

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

• 16× Put a land onto the battlefield — for a landfall commander this triggers where a normal land drop does not
• 8× Pay off lands entering — landfall
• 4× Play additional lands each turn, or play lands from the graveyard / the top of the library
• 10× Put +1/+1 counters on creatures you control, or multiply the ones already there
• 10× Mana from a NONLAND permanent — a commander that doubles nonland mana gets nothing from lands
• 8× A permanent whose value is in its enter-the-battlefield trigger — the payload a blink deck reuses
• 6× Put your own cards into your graveyard as a resource
• 6× Exile a permanent you control and return it — the button a value-ETB deck presses
• 4× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
