This time around we’ll be focusing on getting the most bang for our buck with Hidetsugu’s second ability to deal huge amounts of damage to our opponents life totals as we exile high CMC spells off the top of our deck. So of course that means we’ll be running a good number of high CMC spells, but these will have a twist – most of them will be able to either reduce their costs or be castable for alternate casting costs, making them much easier for us to then cast from exile instead of just using them for their damage, enabling to both get the burn in and then get the extra body or effect in afterwards without having huge stockpiles of mana (usually). But we’ll need to make sure we can get those cards on top of our deck for our commander to hit, so we’ll also be running plenty of self-reanimating creatures to feed to our commander for his scry effect, as well as other ways to return our cards from our grave or hand to the top of our deck to be used by him. And since we’ll be running lots of sacrifice fodder, we’ll of course be running plenty of aristocrats’ payoffs to insure we get extra value out of our sacrifices as we use them up to get us extra resources and pump even more damage into our opponents. And from there it will only be a matter of time before the Hidetsugu reduces our opponent’s life totals to dust.

Let me know if the comments below if you agree with my choices and/or what you would add to the deck instead. Also, let me know know who you would like to see next by voting on in the comments on the three choices of commander listed at the end of the video.
