You want a simple, straightforward deck You want a competitive deck that wins easily and consistently You like the idea Shapeshifting to victory but want something more competitive (play Lazav, the Multifarious) If you're interested in a janky Johnny deck packed with weird, unique interactions not seen anywhere else, then Volrath, the Shapestealer is the commander for you
This deck has been play-d and is very strong, not to mention a blast to play
The idea is to cycle a creature into your graveyard to then exile with Ellie and Alan, discovering into a new spell
This returning gameplay mechanic gives the set the ability to truly represent the journeys from beloved Final Fantasy games as characters, minigames, and more can be transformed
The higher the combined stats, the wider the range of creatures you can tutor directly into play, which leads to more mana to cast even bigger creatures
Although its not as ubiquitous in the format as a few other key artifacts, it still demands a high price as an artifact that makes more mana that it costs
