How Elbrus decks play in EDH
Elbrus, the Binding Blade // Withengar Unbound is a mono-black commander, and its legendary artifact - equipment // legendary creature - demon line shapes the whole deck around it. It cares about +1/+1 counters, so counter-doubling effects and creatures that grow on their own carry the deck. Artifacts drive the deck, so cheap mana rocks and artifact recursion do double duty. Every card in a Elbrus, the Binding Blade // Withengar Unbound deck has to fit inside its black colour identity.
