Another really good Azorius board wipe is Time Wipe. It doesn't necessarily save your creature but bouncing your commander to hand is going to save you on command tax.
The thing about azorius that a lot of people don’t talk about is how there aren’t any good wincons that aren’t combos aside from the boring approach of the second sun. One card that I have found that NO ONE has talked about is Dream Trawler. It is reliable, stays on the battlefield, can get big in card drawing colors, draws cards, evasive with flying, and has lifelink for the late game
Vanish into memory is an amazing card and I think I found it from your channel. I use it in giest of st Taft. I use it on the Angel token after it deals damage for a two mana draw four. It’s amazing.
I run Linvala as my commander and she's probably in my most powerful deck. The secret to making her a good commander is to ignore the party mechanic entirely and build around her activated ability. I just focus on getting big beater angels out and blowing up the board.
Mirrorweave is a really fun card to use and is quite powerful in the right deck. I run it in my millicent token deck and I had a few hilarious win with it.
Cards i would add: - Reparations, draws you cards if they target anything of your things - Emergency Powers, budget wheel that also returns graves in decks - Mirrorweave, multi useable card - Teferi, Time Raveler, big a** i mean protection and removal and carddraw and whatever - Godhead of Awe creatures go small
The funny thing is Verdict is still bad against Spirit tribal and Soldier tribal. They have so many ways to gain indestructible, and phase out. And Queller ignores verdicts “can’t be countered” text which is funny! Just to name a few - Selfless Spirit, Guardian of Faith, Spectral Adversary, Clever Concealment, and Akroma’s Will. 👻
I have an Esper punisher deck that runs Fractured Identity purely to exile my own stuff so I can get 3 copies on the battlefield. 3 Ankh of Mishra's is funny, 3 Dingus Staff's end games quick and a Demonic Hordes when u aren't playing heavy black is a bit yuck 👍
There’s not a ton of cards in Azorious that I like using instead I’d rather use colors that are either white or blue together in the same deck lol so that makes this video useful for ideas
Azorius is in the same category as Orzhov for me: very extensive toolbox for the 99, but not many interesting Commanders. Your options are Blink, Stax, and Underpowered.
I think that’s why Shorikai is by far the most popular Azorius commander. Feels like the first commander in those colors that has many deck building paths

I love timewipe. Feels so nice getting one of your key creatures back into your hand.

+ Avacyn
@olivierkbidi4570 well I know which card I'm proxying first lol

Linvala is value town when it comes to board state protection on a budget! Great pick

Me too, heroic Intervention in command zone, and fucking angels in 99 is just that
Dennick was rly good call in my opinion. I will definitely buy two copies of it! Thx
You do so well with these. Thanks keep it up ⚔️
Oh my god...Disorder in the Court actually could be INSANE actually if someone is gonna board wipe me etc...wowie, grabbing that one.
The Council of Four has become my favorite deck lately. Can higly recommend to anyone wanting to try a different take on azorius
Been wanting to build it but can't decide what direction I want to take it in.
I love how that deck is one of the only decks other than Nekusar where howling mine is actually incredibly powerful
Yes! My color combo. I’m more interested if our ideas of azorius staples line up lol
Mirrorweave is a really fun card to use and is quite powerful in the right deck.
I run it in my millicent token deck and I had a few hilarious win with it.
Nice you reminded me to put vanish into my deck
good time for some lunch and commander vid!
Demo: Grand Arbiter is great in the 99!
Me, who plays it as a commander: Laughs in taxes
Render silent is so good
Cards i would add:
- Reparations, draws you cards if they target anything of your things
- Emergency Powers, budget wheel that also returns graves in decks
- Mirrorweave, multi useable card
- Teferi, Time Raveler, big a** i mean protection and removal and carddraw and whatever
- Godhead of Awe creatures go small
Thanks man love the staples videos I'm not the best at Commander but improving. Will you do be doing 3 colors next?
Fractured Identity is going in my Elminster deck
Perfect timing
Lol was actually looking for this video yesterday
Love disorder in the court. Hey Moe Hey Larry........

Ramp staple list coming?
No mention of Tameshi? easily my favorite azorius commander but also works great for recursion in the 99.

Blink stuff the color pair lol

Now for tri color!
I love to put Teferi Time Raveler to slow down my opponent or to make sure my stuff won't be countered

The new melt urza looks nice
I think that’s why Shorikai is by far the most popular Azorius commander. Feels like the first commander in those colors that has many deck building paths
didn't even add notion thief
that's a dimir card my guy.
