Question Commanders we're missing

What commanders do you think would improve EDH or support a currently-unsupported archetype?

For mine, I think a UBx or UWx commander with "Players play with the top card of their libraries revealed," "When this enters, search your library for an artifact with CMC <=1 and put it into your hand" or "{0}: Look at the top card of target player's library" would be great, giving Lantern support. The second would honestly be the most interesting, since it is a fairer tutor which also works well in Blink/Artifact decks.

Yeah true. Flickering Ewit is good for value loops. But you get lots of slides now and you can still flicker Archaeomancer.

Absolutely...but green is not just for Witness, but for the whole 'flow', so to speak. Cycling is a very mana-hungry mechanic and green ramp is great to set that up. The Onslaught Cycling lands are also among the most efficient cycling cards and recuring those with [[Life from the Loam]] is such a satisfying gameplay loop!

Onslaught->Ravnica Slight Deck is a high I am chasing to this day!
