I'm mostly interested in constructing them to play together for casual play. I'm mostly making them out of cards I already own and/or were in the 2014 Commander decks. I'm thinking I'll just make them those colors and if its actually oppressive, I'll just change the commander, fuck it.
Gotcha. I'd think he'd still be manageable. Depending on how casual we're talking its a good way to teach saving mana for spot removal when playing against him, or teaching when to hold countermagic when playing as him. (Not teaching you obviously, again I wasn't sure the context of Casual you were referring to).
