Thank you for your interest in my auction. I am selling the following item:

A Melek, Izzet Paragon Commander Deck:

  This is a commander deck built around Melek, Izzet Paragon. It is for the Commander/EDH format and includes 100 cards. The Commander/EDH format is a singleton format meaning you can have no more than a single copy of any given card other than basic land in the deck.

  The listing includes a Lightly Played to Near Mint player-made deck.  The copy of Strip Mine is somewhere between lightly to moderately played. The deck includes a invention copy of Meekstone as well in Near Mint condition. Check out the pictures for some of the nicer cards. The listing also includes a free Ultimate Guard deck box to house the cards. It’s a little tired by free with the deck. A  set of tokens and extra full art lands are included for use during gameplay along with a set of dice for keeping track of things. The deck has been double sleeved in perfect fit and red card sleeves to protect the cards in the deck.

  The deck’s commander is Melek, Izzet Paragon and the other 99 cards in the deck include tutors, damage spells, and a slew of control cards including counters.

  This deck, helmed by Melek, Izzet Paragon, is crafted for players who love explosive, high-power spells and clever combos that can quickly spiral out of control. Built for the Commander and EDH formats, this spell-focused, combo-heavy deck rewards its pilot for casting spells from the top of the library and layering powerful instants and sorceries. With a foil-heavy lineup, including FNM promo foil cards and a stunning Kaladesh Invention Meekstone, this deck is sure to catch attention both for its playstyle and appearance.

Key Synergies and Win Conditions

  1. Melek, Izzet Paragon + Copy Effects (Twincast, Reverberate, Swarm Intelligence): With Melek on the field, you can cast spells from the top of your library with an extra copy for free. Pairing this with cards like Twincast and Reverberate amplifies the spell count quickly, allowing for large storms or copied damage spells. This synergy sets up powerful finishers like Comet Storm or Demonfire.
  2. Aetherflux Reservoir + Low-Cost Spells: By casting multiple spells in a turn, especially with Goblin Electromancer and Arcane Melee reducing costs, you can rack up life through Aetherflux Reservoir. This allows you to quickly accumulate enough life to deliver the game-ending 50-damage shot.
  3. Metallurgic Summonings + Spellslinging: Every spell cast summons a construct creature token with power equal to the spell's converted mana cost. As your board grows, Summonings also provides recursion for instants and sorceries if needed, allowing for extended value from your graveyard and overwhelming your opponents with token creatures.
  4. Epic Experiment + High-Cost Spells (Temporal Trespass, Comet Storm, Volcanic Vision): Epic Experiment enables you to flip over a large number of spells from the top of your library, especially potent with cost reduction from Goblin Electromancer or Arcane Melee. By filling the experiment with powerful spells like Temporal Trespass for extra turns or Volcanic Vision for board wipes, you can dominate the board in one explosive play.
  5. Guttersnipe / Talrand, Sky Summoner / Young Pyromancer: These creatures add more value to every instant and sorcery cast. Guttersnipe directly pings opponents, while Talrand and Young Pyromancer generate tokens, which can quickly escalate into a full board presence. Combined with Melek’s copy abilities, each spell cast yields even more advantage.
  6. Firemind's Foresight + Combo Search: Firemind's Foresight can search for combo pieces to set up game-ending sequences, such as Seething Song + Reiterate + Guttersnipe or Young Pyromancer. This effectively turns each cast into additional spells, setting up a near-infinite loop with Reiterate and generating lethal amounts of damage or tokens.
