Using Riddles in Your CMDR Deck - Momir Vig, Revisited

http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=416751

Today, I remade the Momir Deck that I made yesterday. Firstly, because there was simply too much land, and mana ramp, combined. So, what I did was to take out 5 nonbasic lands, such that instead of 40 lands, today’s newly made deck has 35 lands. I like having 35 lands in this instance because it is a multiple of 7. Then, I kept the 7 rampers that cost 1 to 2 mana, and the 21 rampers that cost 3-5 mana. Both of these numbers, 7 and 21, are also multiples of 7 for a grand total of 9 multiples of 7, where 9 is especially a pleasing number to be included in a commander deck. Why? For two reasons; because minus the Commander, a Commander deck has 99 cards, which is a total of 11 multiples of 9. And, also multiples of 9 are totally cool because two multiples of 9 are 18 and in Hebrew, 18 means “Life” - in this deck there are 4 multiples of 9, which are made up of 2 multiples of 18 that are not related to mana ramping. I also feel a bit of synergy with the Commander being a part of the 10 multiples of 10 possible in a deck as well.

I must say that if you have multiple decks, sometimes it can be hard to remember what cards are in each deck. Thus, I suggest that using riddles, like how I have made my Momir Vig, Simic Visionary deck here, might be a great way to help remember what cards are in your deck.

Observe the better proportioned and better riddled CMDR Momir Vig, Simic Visionary Deck:
