How The Fantastic Four decks play in EDH

The Fantastic Four is a Ink-Treader commander in white, blue, red and green costing RGWU, and its legendary creature - human hero line shapes the whole deck around it. It makes tokens, so the deck wants ways to pump a wide board and to turn spare bodies into cards or damage. It cares about +1/+1 counters, so counter-doubling effects and creatures that grow on their own carry the deck. The cards below are the ones The Fantastic Four decks actually play most often, grouped by the job they do.

The Fantastic Four deck questions

What colours can I use in a The Fantastic Four deck?

The Fantastic Four has a Ink-Treader colour identity, so every card in the deck must be white, blue, red and green or colourless. That includes mana symbols in rules text, not just casting cost.

What are the best cards for The Fantastic Four?

The cards played most often in The Fantastic Four decks include Flickering Hound, Radagast of Rhosgobel, Gleaming Splendor. 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 Fantastic Four deck cost?

The 20 most-played cards shown above come to roughly $86.83 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 Fantastic Four 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.
