Oops All Bad Old Cards by ravnensoren

Format: Commander

Commander: Chromium

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This deck is helmed by Chromium, a 7/7 flying Elder Dragon with an upkeep cost, and appears to be a deliberate collection of obscure, low-power cards from Magic's earliest sets. The deck leans heavily on outdated mechanics like banding, fading, landwalk, and cumulative upkeep, with no cohesive strategy beyond hoping to eventually connect with a few large creatures. The commander is expensive and provides no synergy with the rest of the 99. The "plan" is to deploy a handful of slow, inefficient threats, use Static Orb to slow the game, and grind out a combat victory over many turns. There are no tutors, no card draw engines, no recursion, and no meaningful win condition.
