Glarb, Calamity's Augur
Glarb, Calamity's Augur Commander Deck
Glarb, Calamity's Augur turns the top of the library into a second hand by letting you play lands and cast high-cost spells directly from there, rewarding a deck stacked with expensive, impactful permanents and spells. The built-in tap ability to surveil 2 lets you continuously sculpt the top of your library, either setting up the next free cast or pitching unwanted cards to the graveyard for value. Because Glarb basically adds generic value to a deck, I want to use Glarb as a commander to add fluency to a package of 99 cards built around a theme that is sort of independent of Glarb. I also want this package to be future proof, meaning that it is generic enough in its archetype that every new Magic card release will potentially have new synergistic cards with it. Therefore, I want this deck's main theme to be "Counters Matter" (so counters-focused, but ALL counters, not necessarily only +1 /+1 counters), and I want it to use The Mimeoplasm as the secret/backup commander. The deck needs to be upper B3/lower B4 (but no more than 1 game changer), and the 99 needs to be aimed at a lot of synergies and indeterministic situations and win cons so that every game feels different. The graveyard in this deck should play a role but only enough to that it can utilize Glarb and Mimeoplasm's design. Build this Glarb deck around counters synergy.
