Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Hajar is a great card but a horrible commander due to the nature of rapidly growing commander tax, unless you go for a one simple trick\n\nI call it tax evasion, plain and simple, the Rules Committee is the one that I swindle.\n\nIdea of the deck is to spam cheap (and often frail) legendary creatures but keep them alive by repeatedly sacrificing Hajar, and using every trick in the book to avoid paying too many commander taxes. Spamming mass destruction here and there while your creatures are indestructible aims to keep the enemies weak.\n\nThere are several ways for committing a tax fraud.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Faking your own death"},{"insert":"\nTax man can't get you if they think you are dead.\nDelina and Helm of the Host allow you to create a nonlegendary token copy that you can sacrifice instead"},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Nim, Cauldron of Souls and Lifeline allow you to just purely fake your death by returning Hajar back to your hand or battlefield when he would be entering the graveyard"},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Dying for real"},{"insert":"\nTax man can't get you if you are dead\nFeldon allows creation of legendary token copies from your corpse in the graveyard and the legend rule won't even trigger by the virtue of you being already dead."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Bunch of cards allow reanimation of your corpse once back to your hand or even straight into the battlefield"},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Just don't pay taxes man"},{"insert":"\nOr what if you just said like, \"Nah, I'll pass\" for the tax collector?\nCards like Commander Beacon, Campfire, Road of Return and Hellkite Courser allow one time waiver for the tax collection and return you from the Command zone. You can of course grab a shovel and go dig the waivers back up from the graveyard and repeat the process. Especially \"play lands from graveyard\" cards will allow erecting the Commander Beacon time and time again."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"The rich don't pay taxes anyway"},{"insert":"\nThe more you make money, the less you pay taxes\nCards like Bard Class, Myth Unbound and Shadow in the Warp can allow you to pay significantly reduced casting cost from the Commander Zone"},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nOnce you've gotten the hang of the tax evasion, you can just spam legendaries while Hajar's corruption makes them untouchable. I've focused on cheaper side of the legendaries as Hajar's constant recasting eats part of the mana but getting indestructible makes even many of the cheap legendaries very broken (especially when they have deathtouch) and sprinkling some boardwipes on top, you are guaranteed to become the archenemy even without any big mana creatures.\n"}]}
