In the original upload, I mistakenly framed this deck tech, which my friend Zach Martin and myself put about two weeks of work into writing, editing, and producing, as an “underplayed” commander. OOPS. That’s my bad. I thought a colorful “tag” or “bookend” would help distinguish this from just an “average” deck tech, and for me and my playgroup, Elsha was not a commander I had seen before Zach showed up with her one night and impressed me with her prowess. That’s how I pick my decks, by the way: I play with friends, I have fun, and then I wanna develop a script and play test and write and create a video.
I don’t spend a lot of time on EDHrec memorizing stats and such because I have a more organic approach to deck building. That’s not to say there is anything wrong with EDHrec, love them and love the people behind the site, but that’s how I didn’t see “Oh, this is actually a Commander in the Top 30 with such and such percentages and a Cedh counterpart and so forth and so on. I just like to play and build what I love, and do videos about those decks and the decks my friends play. I’m sorry I mistook Elsha for a lesser known Commander because of this, but this tech, and this list, are awesome (even if it isn’t 100%) and I really hope that you enjoy the video and can maybe not be too angry at this bumbling professor. Let’s shuffle up and play? I love this game.
