@JonTheMon I think I'll build mine with Ravos, Soultender and Reyhan, Last of the Abzan. Ravos is like Kharador, even.

and I love the story feel of Ravos and Reyhan working together keeping the Abzan stubbornly alive. It suits the Abzan so well!

Saskia, the Unyielding and Atraxa, Praetor's Voice also have the Abzan colour identity, and Atraxa could work well -- she proliferates and gives access to Blue, and thus a lot of Simic cards.

@doppelgreener You Saskia link points to Reyhan

whoops!

The actual Saskia the Unyielding

Saskia gives you access to Jund cards with Devour, and gives all your tokens pseudo-double strike

Fathom Mage would belong well in an Atraxa deck.

All twenty commanders of Commander 2016 have now been revealed.

(or spoiled)

The Golgari partner I've heard others term it as giving "Buttlink"

@JonTheMon hahahaha, that's good.

alas, its buttlink is only for dealing combat damage to players

Ikra Shidiqi and Sidar Kondo would together make for an interesting low-power high-toughness evasion deck.

At that point, is it better to have them as part of the 99 with Doran as commander, or vice-versa?

that is a very compelling question.

Or run not-red, and have all 3 in the 99?

(maybe one of the GB partners as a partner?)

Hmm, the UW partner is just the opponent-only managorger...

Doran is probably better. Flying is good for an alpha strike, and life is nice, but only if you're also doing damage. And w/o doran, you're reliant on Assault Formation

I agree. Doran's more of a game changer as a commander

Doran, the Siege Tower also affects opponents.

that could also draw more hate

That flips things around for opponents, since their cards now have T/T instead of P/T for most purposes.
