sphinx (EDH / Commander)

Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign is an amazing creature - dare I say the perfect creature commander for me!

This is my first draft which I plan to put to paper once C18 releases. I went all in on odd casting cost cards so every spell can be cast off a Yennett trigger. It's mostly goodstuff and ETB effects for now sprinkled with a few more unique cards for the "top deck" strategy that Yennet lends to, and taking advantage of "free" casting spells, but I may switch the theme around a bit as I play her more, so come back at a later time to check her out!

This might be considered a "friendlier" version of Yennett as I'm not including any powerful Eldrazi, Expropriate, Praetors, extra turns galore, stax, etc. I’m including Corrupted Conscience and one Eldrazi for other win cons. I like how Yennett's power can actually be scaled in this way.

A possible future theme I thought of are ETB value (some ideas like from the Commander's Brew podcast/video), but I'll see what is clicking.

Coolest thing I've done so far goldfishing online is "free" casting Approach of the Second Sun with Yennett, then casting Doomsday to stack the deck so that I can draw into Teferi's Protection at the end of that turn to protect myself (Dream Cache, etc.), draw Approach of the Second Sun on the next turn and cast it.

I know, I know, no Void Winnower in my list because although it’s on theme, there’s more fun cards to play.

Comments and suggestions all welcome!
