Building a Deck to Win in every game of Commander

Commanders featured in this video

Decklists

Cameron walks us through his approach to Commander and how he scores a win in every game. The multiplayer nature of Commander makes it so that the win and the end is three times as scarce as most other Magic formats. This is a great way to shift the paradigm of what we are looking for in Commander.
