Deckbuilding Exercise:

Deck brewing Challenge

1. Get a Random Commander by some means, this could be using EDHREC random function or Gatherers Random Card funtion or using random number generator is some manner.
   • If you get a Partner, I’d say Roll 1d8 and see if you randomize another Partner for it.
     • 1-2: Play with only this Commander opting not to have a Partner.
     • 3-8: Randomize a partner for your Commander.
2. Read the card and identify possible tribes and themes that work with said commander.
3. Choose or Randomize which theme or tribe we are building.
4. (Optional) Choose or Randomize possible limitations to deck building.

I’m going to build bunch of decks using random Commanders, first without any restrictions, trying to make CEdh level decks without readung other people deck lists. Then once my deck is ready I will compare it to decklists posted online, and see what did I do wrong, once I’m done with CEdh deck for specific commander I’ll set some limitations and build more casual theme/tribal based budjet deck for that commander.

While instead of building decks I don’t have the cards for I’d much rather play, I have more time for thia than sitting down for some hours to play. Also I believe it will help me 1. Understand synergies and cards better for future. 

After I’m done with first Commander, If I hit the same color combination again before doing 1 Commander or each color Combination, I’ll reroll or find a way to randomize without including the already used color combinations.
