Commander's Brew Episode 295 - Tanazir Quandrix
is an enticing Commander because of the word "double" in its oracle text. Not to mention having the ability to make your other creatures mighty large even if they don't have any +1/+1 counters on them.

Commander's Brew Episode 293: Codie, Vociferous Codex
Codie is a weird little card with a pretty big drawback. That is, unless you don't cast your creatures and instead bring them all back using 's ability? Whaaaat? The idea behind is a neat one, cycle your whole deck until you have a full graveyard of monstrous creatures like then reanimate them by casting a one mana spell, activating 's "Cascade" ability, then hitting our only 0 mana spell, .

Commander's Brew Episode 285 - Vega Populate Storm
When you start with a card-advantage Commander like you can really end up in any direction when it comes to the rest of your deck. You can use it as a way to support a control style deck or something about drawing cards or hand size, OR go a little more off on a tangent and just use the cantrip-ability as a support for something else.

This week's deck does a couple of weird things with a really fun new Commander from Kaldheim, . Usually, if we're talking Gruul ramp, it's not typically of the artifact persuasion. And if we're ramping in Gruul you can generally bet on the fact that that mana will be used to cast some gigantic creatures and smash some face with them. Not this deck, oh no, this deck uses one of the all-time most...
