• haste and untap effects that reach the commander (a tap ability is unusable the turn it lands)

The Urianger Augurelt deck plan

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

• 13× Put haste on the commander the turn it resolves — a tap ability is unusable otherwise
• 16× Exiles from your own library and lets you play it — the card flow of an exile-matters commander
• 10× Untap the commander so the tap ability is an engine, not a one-shot
• 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
• 2× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal
