{"ops":[{"insert":"This is my submission for a Commander-legal deck for new players.\n"},{"attributes":{"link":"https://archidekt.com/decks/8746699/beginnerfriendly_commander_deck"},"insert":"https://archidekt.com/decks/8746699/beginnerfriendly_commander_deck"},{"insert":"\nThis deck was build from scratch for this particular challenge, but can be enjoyed by new and less-new players. Despite never making a Gruul deck before, I had fun making this one and rethinking some aspects of the game and I hope many will enjoy exploring what it can do.\n\nI have been teaching my wife, and I was reminded of how difficult it was at first to learn the game. In particular, it can get frustrating when you don't have mana, or cards, or proper responses, or worse, nothing to do. This deck attempts to ease some of these aspects by using Grand Warlord Radha "},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"to generate mana, and creatures with simple activated abilities or triggers to draw more or deal more damage"},{"insert":". While doing that, it remains a simple “combat-focused” deck, and a new play can improve with it by noticing small interactions with both his own creatures and his opponents.\n\nAs a starter commander player or magic player altogether, I believe that cards should have the l"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"east complexity possible from a gameplay point of view as well as small amount of text"},{"insert":" - "},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"however, putting simple 3/3 creatures, with no text, for CMC 3 is not necessarily fun, so a balance needs to be attained..."},{"insert":" That means s"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"elf-explanatory cards and a clear strategy"},{"insert":", which follows the commander you play: in this case combat and a lot of mana at your disposal. You will see a bit of everything: r"},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"each, vigilance, trample, haste, tokens, counters, regenerate"},{"insert":" etc which give adaptability and the gameplay is simple and fun.\nPlaying many sorceries and instants is difficult for a new player as they require some good timing, so having fewer tricks and more creatures (with activated abilities) is easier while still providing possibilities and growth. Also, I believe that to learn the game, playing two colours is best, as a single colour leads you to believe mana colour is not important.\n\nThis deck contains a "},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"counterspell"},{"insert":", some instant "},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"protection"},{"insert":", few "},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"removals"},{"insert":" or "},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"burns"},{"insert":", a "},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"planeswalker"},{"insert":", which allow a new player to see what exists in the game and explore mechanics but remains straightforward.

Also, as I believe deckbuilding is important to understand the game, I have left the “Maybeboard” there for a player to look at and think “ah I see where this could go”, or “I don’t think this fits the way I play” ( also it reduces the budget by keeping the more expensive cards there), and because the deck has a solid mana source, decent card advantage, and revolves around combat, you can experiment with deck building by slipping in your favourite creatures.\n\nThanks everyone! have fun\n"}]}
