What a Winter, Team Player deck needs

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

• noncreature spells (its trigger fires on each one you cast)
• a wide board of creatures and tokens for the team pump

The Winter, Team Player deck plan

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

• 25× A card that is CAST to trigger the commander — reanimating or blinking it does not count
• 16× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
• 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
• 11× Get ahead on mana
