The ULTIMATE Sauron Deck list! 

Why though? You’re not playing Dark Lord for the flavor, that’s what Lord of the Rings is for.

​@@xenocross6597 we have upgraded all the LotR Precons and jam pods that are "LotR only" 😊

@@Rabid_Wombat Ok, that’s still not the point here. I see no reason why you should limit yourself this way with Dark Lord specifically. There are several other Sauron variants that this concept works far better with. Specifically, Sauron, Lord of the Rings. The point here is being good (imo it fails in that regard: the One Ring doesn’t really have much of a place in this deck, for example). Which a “LotR only” build of the commander wouldn’t do. Oh, sure, you can get Saruman the White in here, sure you can have Orcish Bowmasters and March of the Black Gate, but are you really getting a lot of value out of the Balrog of Moria? I think not. This is absolutely best made as a graveyard deck that uses its discard mechanic to draw into win conditions such as Torment of Hailfire, given, that’s expensive.

Would you put all 9 in? And who would you take out if so

@@Mickykovs I built Sauron with all 9 copies. It works incredibly well

​@@MickykovsI built a very different list. I went with Wheels, Reanimation, and the Nazgul. Play or discard your Nazgul, then recur them to constantly be Tempted. Sauron helps you draw through your deck. Usually wins with either Orcish Bowmasters or a mass reanimation spell.

@@brandyourfan9244can we get a deck list please!!

Yeah he showed one less card than the total he said at the end for each card type...

@@joemash4193 Yeah, I kinda messed up. Thanks for the feed back next deck list I'll be keeping a closer eye on things. It should show 4 swamps.

Yeah, that's my bad. I have the deck list posted now. Here it is as well, www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/5690599#paper This was my first deck list video and I'll be making making sure to actually put the list with the video next time 🤦

Multicolored Human Tribal could be gross if the mana is good. Might have to cover it!

Thanks for watching!! As far as cuts go I would take out Tergrid, God of Fright/Syr Konrad, the Grim/Plaguecrafter/Fleshbag Marauder/Razaketh, the Foulblooded. Syr Konrad is good but we already have aristocrats like blood artist. Tergrid is really good at getting killed, she's great if she lives but in my experience I become arch enemy at the table the moment she comes down. So if you cut her then I'd take out the edict creatures with her as they get worse without her. Razaketh has the same problem as tergrid, too good for his own good, he always gets blown up and then your down eight mana. For the counter spells it depends on your budget. Arcane denial did get a reprint in the Lord of the Rings set so its on theme and we play a lot of stuff to punish card draw. Mana drain has always been good but cryptic command is a big ask in a three color deck. I'd probably throw in arcane denial, mana drain, fierce guardianship, disallow, and trick bind because I have combo players at my table. Stay away from the force counter spells as you need blue cards to exile. Hopefully this is helpful!

@@ManaMoot Thank you for the reply!

That sounds fun and something I'd want to try out.

Reliquary is the best land in the game. I literally never run a commander deck without it😂

Underrated comment^

Lol yeah! I tested a deck similar to this one on arena and I found that the Wraiths are All-stars!

I think he meant the several that aren't named "nazgul"
