I really love him flavor-wise - he's so rich he just throws money at the problem. Also lets you work with artifact/token/outlaw/assassin support. So on paper there seem to be a lot of moving parts working towards a clear goal - smash face with treasures, maybe drain a little with [[reckless fireweaver]] and the like.

But I'm wondering if in actuality the gameplay is just "make treasures -> durdle until ready -> attack". What do you think about him as a commander? And if you have any experiences playing with or against the guy, would you share em? Trying to decide if I want to buy the deck. Built him lile this, if relevant: https://moxfield.com/decks/xBenb0ky7U-o5Im6Eacdcg

Same sword, same size on screen. This man can carry his nephew in his backpack

Are they stupid?

White has a lot of spells that mass reanimate artifacts/enchantments, and since we're discarding anyway we might as well fill our graveyard with targets like [[salvation colossus]]. Stuff like [[the warring triads]] and [[angel of the ruins]] are cool since they represent the draw/ramp veggies of the deck while being strong reanimation targets. Sagas and saga creatures are also great reanimation targets since they land in the graveyard sooner or later after casting anyway.

Would love to know your favourites for this kind of deck! This is what I have built, but a lot of the spots are flexible. https://moxfield.com/decks/D1QlYMr8tEK0BMNHZqMcEA

Also shoutout to [[mishra, excavation prodigy]] for doing everything we want and need.
