Braids Arisen Nightmare | Artifact Aristocrats | Commander | EDH | MTG | Budget | Cut-Rate Commander

EDIT: Braids ability triggers on our end step, not upkeep (my bad, I knew that but apparently I didn’t have my coffee when recording that bit….). Thanks for all the folks who brought this error to my attention! Buy Me a Coffee - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/GrazzetMTG Poll: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCslo3TL1qjWgv65igG92Y2w/community Cut-Rate Commander - Episode 59 - Featuring Braids, Arisen Nightmare from Dominaria United #mtg #mtgdominaria #mtgdominariaunited #edh #commander

After 250(ish) years, Braids, Arisen Nightmare has finally been freed by the Cabal in Dominaria United - and now sporting a new body and even greater power after her “resurrection”, she’s eager to find some playthings to test her new abilities on!

In this build, we’ll be taking advantage of Braids “customizable” edict effect to target something quite valuable to commander players: their artifacts - aiming to force our opponents to either blow up their rocks and utility artifacts early (slowing their own gamesplans down considerably) or giving us card advantage (and taking some life loss as well). Of course, this means we’ll have plenty of artifacts and sources of non-creature artifact token creation for Braids to sac away to threaten our opponents artifacts, as well as some more traditional Aristocrats pieces that we’ll be able to quickly assemble thanks to the draw Braids will be providing us - ensuring that our opponents will quickly drown in the blood and oils of our sacrifices.

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.
