tiny deck (EDH / Commander)

Inspired by the recent commander at home youtube video where Ben Brode brought a thraximundar deck with a big commander and teeny tiny cards, this is my take on a tiny card deck with an oversized commander.

The tiny cards only come in three sets: duel decks jace vs vraska, ajani vs nicol bolas, and heroes vs monsters. The idea was to build a green white red deck since both heroes vs monsters decks only use these colours and the ajani deck also uses all three. This means that there will be three whole 60 card decks worth of on colour cards, with intended synergies, so hopefully we can make something that approaches viability in a casual commander pod.

There are a few good green cards from the vraska deck in the sideboard but you could totally save and just get the bolas vs ajani and heroes vs monsters.

The maybeboard contains all the cards that fit the colour identity but I chose not to play in the deck. There are some kinda interesting ones though so if you are thinking of building such a deck then definitely consider them.

I'm running marath as a commander as it is a flexible card that can deal damage, make tokens, or put +1/+1 counters on our creatures which should hopefully help to smooth out some of the awkwardness inherent to the deck. For example, a lot of our creature removal is damage based, which marath can help with by adding more damage if the burn spell wouldn't be enough on it's own or if they try to pump their creature to save it. The deck also has basically zero ways to get extra cards in hand so having a mana sink in the command zone guarantees that we will always have something to do while topdecking.

Making this into a Kynaios and Tiro deck (all colours except black) or a five colour deck of some variety may be a good way to strengthen the deck, particularly by unlocking more card draw options. You have to be careful though, the available mana base in tiny cards may struggle to support more than three colours especially since it has no dual lands for several colour combinations. For example, if you were to try to add blue to this deck to get some more card draw, you'd have no blue/white, blue/green, or blue/red lands except for rupture spire.

The deck is clearly not good but I think it still has some sauce. I want to get orcish lumberjack in play with sun titan, for example. Or stack a bunch of counters and auras onto deus of calamity and start blowing up lands, even if they block :)
