Henzie “Toolbox” Torre’s ability gives you the option to blitz out higher cost creatures for less than their original mana value. This way your best creatures don’t have to be one and done. If your creatures are going to die at the end of the turn anyway, you might as well get some extra utility out of them.Īlternatively, you also have Sundial of the Infinite to keep your blitz creatures out indefinitely and cards like Reanimate to bring them back after they die. Otherwise, you’re going to shoot yourself in the foot when trying to use Birthing Pod or similar effects if you hit a gap in mana values.īecause Henzie “Toolbox” Torre gives your creatures blitz, this deck also includes some other methods to benefit from sacrificing them like Phyrexian Altar. While a lot of decks can jump around on the curve, a pod deck wants to ensure they have at least one creature of each mana value going up to your highest mana value card. One important thing with a pod deck is to pay attention to the mana value of your creatures. If this type of deck isn’t your speed, I’ll also go over some other ways to build a Henzie deck if you’re interested. I decided to go with a pod build, which can be a lot of fun and works well with Henzie’s ability to get creatures on the field for cheaper. This deck specifically is built to try and hit hard and fast with some big creatures. I think this commander is also good for newer players who may need to learn to treat their creatures a bit less preciously. Like a lot of my favorite commanders, Henzie changes how you look at certain cards, allowing for some unique uses. Henzie “Toolbox” Torre has an interesting ability that can make for some fun builds. That said, I can admit when I was wrong, and I was definitely wrong to overlook Henzie “Toolbox” Torre. In truth, now that there are Commander precons every few months as opposed to once a year, they’ve become a lot less exciting than they used to be. The Streets of New Capenna commander precons didn’t really stand out to me all that much when they came out. Henzie “Toolbox” Torre | Illustration by Johannes Voss
