This has almost-passable stats and a mediocre life gain trigger
The set and block had a multicolor theme
Skip the $20+ cards (Thrumming Stone, Coat of Arms, Cover of Darkness) and the deck still hums: Commander: Karumonix, the Rat King (~$1) Engines: Pack Rat (~$3.30), Piper of the Swarm (~$3), Ogre Slumlord (~$0.45), a couple of Relentless Rats / Rat Colony (~$56 each cap the copies to stay on budget) Payoffs/utility: Crypt Rats (~$0.50), Nezumi Bone-Reader (~$0.40), Bontu the Glorified (~$3) as a sac outlet, Throne of the God-Pharaoh only if budget allows The rest: cheap black removal, Swamps, and a Sol Ring The whole list comes in well under $50, and it scales up gracefully add Marrow-Gnawer and Thrumming Stone later and the same shell jumps several power levels
Commander Party is a Commander event where players can celebrate the flavor of the FINAL FANTASY games
Most people smell a rat though, control does not often race, especially when it seems losing
Marvel Snap may have significantly more characters to choose from - over 80,000 believe it or not - but since each character only appears once, albeit with different artwork variants, there are only 257 cards available
