The strategy for this deck is to ramp out Kadena as quickly as possible. All of this value is easily accessible from your command zone. Finally, the first morph card is free each turn and this is an incredible value for card draw. When these things are factored into the card draw the cost for the morph cards are a value. A 2/2 creature with no abilities has a base cost of two mana in Magic. However you are also getting a 2/2 body for this cost and are setting up your morph effects. When you play a megamorph it is twice the cost of what card draw should cost. The most expensive face down card to play is a megamorph card at three mana. Whenever a face down card enters the battlefield you get to draw a card. Kadena is also a strong commander because she has card draw built into her abilities.
Cards with each in their text scale well to the multiplayer format. With multiple opponents the number of times each triggers is multiplied compared to regular two player magic. In commander the word “each” is very powerful. The text “each turn.” is critical for this deck. It provides playing down a free morph card every turn. The deck revolves around it’s commander Kadena, Sinking Sorcerer. The additional play lines are an advantage the deck will capitalize on for value. Finally, when more and more face down cards enter the battlefield the players options expand with more play lines available. In a game of blind luck they may choose the wrong card to remove and this gives you an advantage. Faceless Menace creates a nondescript battlefield where opponents do not know what your cards are and makes it difficult to individually target your permanents. These abilities are sometimes overcosted but worth the extra mana as you can activate these abilities when you need them and not during your turn as enter the battlefield effects do.
Then, the deck gains additional value by activating their abilities by flipping them face up. Faceless Menace is a deck that focuses around playing your cards face down.
#CHEAP ADDITION TO FACELESS MENACE UPGRADE#
The first deck we will upgrade is the Faceless Menace precon. Since we are adjusting a preconstructed deck and not totally rebuilding around the commander, Take Ten looks to keep the cost of the cards to around a $100 budget for the ten card upgrades. It breaks them down and then provides ten cards that will improve the deck from it’s preconstructed status.
