Shards of Alara | Commander Clash S12E09
Welcome back to Commander Clash! New Capenna is set to release soon and since it's the first set in over a decade with an emphasis of 3-color shard combinations, we decided to check out the OG shards block, Shards of Alara! Each of us built a deck around an Alara commander to see how they hold up now in 2022:
- Phil pilots an Artifact Blink deck with Sharuum the Hegemon
- Richard merges +1/+1 Counters with a Voltron strategy using Jenara, Asura of War
- Crim subs in for Seth this week, bringing a Grixis Aristocrats deck led by Thraximundar
- Tomer runs an Aura Voltron deck looking for 1-shot kills with Uril, the Miststalker

Richard's Deck

What Are You Playing On?

What's the Banned List?
This season, we are using the official Commander banned list with no house bans.
Next Week: Elder Boomer Highlander!
What was Commander like before it was an official format? We check out these prehistoric times with a deckbuilding restriction called Elder Boomer Highlander: each card in our deck must have been printed before the original Commander 2011 precons! So nothing after New Phyrexia is legal. Let's see how the decks looked back then!
