Saved commander deck
Tishana, Voice of Thunder
Generate a wide board of creatures to maximize Tishana's card draw, then utilize a high hand size and creature count for massive finishers.
Prompt: Build a Commander (EDH) deck with Tishana, Voice of Thunder as commander. Strategy: go wide with creatures, cast Tishana to draw a huge number of cards, then win through card advantage and big board presence. Focus on: Creature-based card draw (ETB, cast, attack triggers) Token generation and cheap creatures Blink/bounce effects to reuse ETB draw and retrigger Tishana Payoffs scaling with hand size or creature count Include: 36–38 lands 10+ ramp (mana dorks, land ramp) 10+ repeatable draw engines 5–7 blink/bounce effects 8–10 interaction (counterspells/removal) Protection for key pieces Avoid low-synergy cards. Prioritize strong Simic staples and high synergy. Power level: high, optimized casual (not cEDH). Output a complete 100-card decklist.
