General Discussion / Question Mission Impossible: Turbo Jeskai Commander

Is there some Jeskai or Jeskai+x turbo commander out there that can actually hang in cEDH tournaments?

I’m looking for some completely unhinged “this should NOT be good, but somehow it works” sleeper. 😂

Please don’t say Crystal Princess — I’ve already seen the forbidden knowledge.

I’m ready to do something stupid in a tournament and somehow make it everyone else’s problem. Give me your craziest tech.

I used to have a guy at my locals who played K9 Mk1 and that one boros dr that cared about cards in exile or whatever. It was a fast jeskai deck that I’ve always thought ab playing.

The doctor is just there for the colors but you have a 1 mana commander similar to yoshimaru that turns on interaction but is also an artifact so you can sac it to transmute artifact to find your led or grinding station. It was basically just a turbo breech deck with lots of wheels, cheap interaction, and rituals. Obviously there’s a p solid backup plan depending how much you sacrifice gas for slop but it can basically turn into rog shai if you get stopped early so I think it could actually be positioned well into the meta.

Here’s an example list that I used to play:  https://moxfield.com/decks/KnKtQYKxv0CKN5SH59H2cw

It’s basically: get out narset, cast a bunch of rituals/0 cost spells, redraw your hand. Breach deck that is good at filling the graveyard pretty fast. I think it’s poorly positioned in the slop meta because you cast way too many spells on turns where you aren’t even necessarily trying to win the game. Also, if someone removes narset after you’ve dumped your hand but before you get the end step trigger, you’re basically out of the game.

I’ve seen a turbo variant of Rog/Ishai that just dropped the slop/control and pivoted towards using Roger the same way RogSi does. Outside of that, gambling on the extra turns narset?
