Zethi, Arcan Blademaster Suggestion

Deck Help

Hello everyone. First of all, I apologize for any grammatical errors, but English isn't my first language.

As the title suggests, I'm putting together the pieces to create the most solid and high-performance EDH deck possible using [[Zethi, Arcane Blademaster]] as commander.

I'd like to build it around control, exiling low-cost instants (removal spells, bounces), which I think is the best strategy for this commander.

I'm also planning to add a couple of combos, [[Nexus of Fate]] , for example, for infinite turns, and a couple of others I haven't decided yet.

However, I have two main concerns:

- I've already played Azorius control decks with few creatures, such as [[Elminster]], and I'd like to play Zethi. The problem is that Elminster also helped the board with a good number of tokens, and I'm worried that, playing Zethi, I'll have little defense if my control strategy fails. So I wanted to ask for your help in building the creature deck as effectively as possible.

- The second critical issue concerns potential wincons. What does this commander win with? Controlling your opponents is important, but what should I aim for? Combos? Or commander damage?
