Instant Deck Tech: Baral Polymorph (Commander)


Instant Deck Tech time! For Tier Thursday this week we are trying something a little bit different: looking at one of the top decks from competitive 1v1 Commander! The format was recently added to Magic Online, so we suddenly have a lot of data to look at. As such, make sure to let me know what you think about having some 1v1 Commander deck techs. While we wouldn't do them every week, what do you think about having them every once and a while? As for the deck itself, we're looking at Baral Polymorph, which is currently the single most played deck in 1v1 Commander. It looks to counter everything and eventually wins the game by Polymorphing Baral, Chief of Compliance into the deck's only creature: Emrakul, the Aeons Torn!

Note: Treasure CruiseDig Through Time, and Strip Mine has since been banned, but the deck remains otherwise intact.

Don't forget, if you want to see this deck made into videos, you can vote by liking, commenting and subscribing to the MTGGoldfish Youtube Channel!
