It proved a productive weekend for me, MtG-wise. I did zero yard chores and minimal house chores, but I got in some deck maintenance (especially with my Torbran deck), some collection maintenance, properly sorted my to-buy list by color, broke down some decks, and built a new one from the remnants.
Jenara, Asura of War. I had her built several years ago, and am happy to build her again, with a plan this time of using her mostly in duels, with lots of low-cmc answers and a few key cards. Best of all is that the entire deck was built from my EDH boxes. Yes, there are cards I can buy to improve the deck, but they aren't necessary.
Not needing to buy cards feels good; after all, this is why I took the EDH box route so long ago - to build new decks without needing to purchase more cards.
That said, several of the cards I am eyeing are no doubt found in the New Capenna Commander deck that reprinted Jenara: Bedecked Brokers (link goes to all five New Capenna decklists, with this one last). There was a time when I would buy Commander decks for parts, but they cost too much for my wallet now, and are reportedly increasing in price.
Regardless, among the cards I found that seemed most thematically useful was this: Stealth Mission.
