{"ops":[{"insert":"My original idea was to play only rhinos (meaning, creatures that drain on ETB).\n\nThen I saw there's a lot of open space left, so I added the Cauldron Familiar combo as a wincon - the cat was going to be here regardless, as it is actually a very small rhino.\nThe combo could be sleeker and more consistent, but I don't want to do that. The only tutor in the deck is one that I happen to own.\nThe point is either to win with the rhinos, or survive long enough to assemble the combo naturally.\n\nIntimidation Campaign is an honorary rhino, so I needed a WUBG commander. There's not much choice there. I picked this version of Atraxa because the deck has very little card draw, so she fills that role and also makes the combo at least a little more consistent.\nYou could very easily remove Intimidation, which is the only blue card in the deck (and is far from essential), and then use your Abzan commander of choice instead of Atraxa. The best choice would probably be Ghave, Guru of Spores, who can fill a role in the combo by itself (which I suppose also allows you to reduce the number of sac outlets in the deck, in favor of something else).\n"}]}
