Commander deckUW
Rex, Cyber-Hound
Synergize artifact creatures, technology, and energy while utilizing self-mill and opponent mill to fuel Rex's brain counter exile ability. Build an adaptable board state with valuable activated abilities like protection, draw, and removal that function independently of the commander.
Asked for“Crie um deck Commander de exatamente 100 cartas com Rex, Cyber-Hound como comandante. Tema principal: robôs e criaturas/artifacts tecnológicos. Budget máximo de US$100, ignorando comandante e terrenos básicos; evite cartas acima de US$10. Quero Bracket 2 alto, no nível de um precon moderno forte: consistente, balanceado e capaz de vencer, mas justo. Construa ao redor de Rex: causar dano, gerar Energy, millar oponentes e exilar criaturas dos cemitérios para acumular suas habilidades ativadas. Priorize criaturas W/U ou incolores com habilidades ativadas úteis: proteção, evasão, draw, remoção, mana, untap e utilidade. Inclua Energy, mill incidental, ramp e interação. Sem combos infinitos, stax, Game Changers ou muitos tutores. Não faça Voltron, Mill ou Energy puro. O deck deve funcionar mesmo sem Rex.”
Deck anatomy
What this list actually runs on: how cheaply it casts things, and whether it has enough ramp, card draw and interaction to keep up at the table. Each block is one card — hover for its name.

The working parts
Counted from Scryfall’s community card tags, not from the builder’s own labels. A card that does two jobs counts twice, so these add up to more than the deck. The hatched band is a common rule of thumb, not a law — combo decks run leaner, battlecruiser decks heavier.
