How The Cyber-Controller decks play in EDH

The Cyber-Controller is a Dimir commander in blue and black costing XUUB, and its legendary artifact creature - cyberman line shapes the whole deck around it. It fills graveyards, which can be a win condition on its own or fuel for recursion. Artifacts drive the deck, so cheap mana rocks and artifact recursion do double duty. The cards below are the ones The Cyber-Controller decks actually play most often, grouped by the job they do.

The Cyber-Controller deck questions

What colours can I use in a The Cyber-Controller deck?

The Cyber-Controller has a Dimir colour identity, so every card in the deck must be blue and black or colourless. That includes mana symbols in rules text, not just casting cost.

What are the best cards for The Cyber-Controller?

The cards played most often in The Cyber-Controller decks include Fateful Discovery, Turbulent Wetlands, Bio-Asset Allocator. The full list of staples above is grouped by the job each card does, so you can see the deck's skeleton rather than just a pile of names.

How much does a The Cyber-Controller deck cost?

The 20 most-played cards shown above come to roughly $67.61 at current market prices. A complete 100-card build costs more, and Grimoire can generate a budget version instead if you set a price ceiling.

Can I build a The Cyber-Controller deck from cards I already own?

Yes. Import your collection into Grimoire and choose "my cards" when you build. The generator will only use cards you actually own, and the Missing Cards page shows what you would need to buy to finish any list.
