Deck Showcase: Tymna/Ravos Orzhov Stax

Deck Showcase

Hi all,

I decided to revamp my first EDH deck to be more consistent. I started with stax (because yes I am that kind of guy) with [[Kambal, Consul of Allocation]] at the helm. It was an ok deck a few years ago, but unfortunately has been power crept on top of the fact that Kambal unfortunately brings no value in the command zone. I put him in the 99 and replaced the commanders with the partner pair [[Tymna the Weaver]] and [[Ravos, Soultender]], the reason being that Kambal alone struggled with card advantage where Tymna fills this slot in the command zone.

I wanted to stay true to the decks original intention being an Orzhov stax deck, slowing down or stopping other decks from doing "their thing". This is the list I've come up with:

People normally play Tymna in a cEDH context or have a bunch of 1 cmc evasive creatures like [[Healer Hawk]] to get the most out of her triggers, but I wanted to have more of a focus on stax, so I did my best to put in a lot of "evasive" hatebears in the deck, in the form of flying or deathtouch.

Playtesting always has me almost at a full hand which is refreshing. Play patterns are (assuming I am on curve) either Turn 2/3 hatebear Turn 3/4 Tymna + draws.

Having Ravos in the command zone also allows for a bit of recursion if my hate pieces get removed on top of being evasive himself.

I have purposely avoided gamechangers and combos, as I have other decks that fill that niche. Obviously a [[Dranithe Magistrate]] or other GCs in Orzhov would make the deck a lot more disgusting.

Thoughts or suggestions? :3
