If I had to pick 10 cards to get from the commander 2014 boxed set, I would get these 10 cards.
In specific numbers, if I had the money, I would get:
4x Daretti
He's a 1 card engine in itself but you'd probably be playing Goblin Welder and Dack Faden.4cc Planeswalkers are usually played at the bare minimal, apart from Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas and Jace, the Mind Sculptor. Control Slaver sounds fun.
3x Contamination Priests
Sideboard card that you can't really play too many of. 3 is a good number to have between the main and the side. I guess it singlehandedly beats Sneak and Show and Reanimator but 4 seems excessive.
2x Spoils of Blood
I have no idea where this would go but it looks like it does something.
2x Song of the Dryad
Maelstrom Pulse exists so this could be a liability. 2 is more than enough for a straight up answer card.
I'm not convinced that Fork is needed but we've played similar cards that we would never have just because they have creature bodies. The 1RR cost is the biggest problem but it's better to get this earlier than later.
2x Wake of the Dead
The ability to reanimate more than 1 guy at eot is very powerful. I don't see this replacing stuff but it's definitely interesting.
This is for sure a good buy at 1x. The -2 ability is going to be very strong.
(Like vs Miracles who can't really counterbalance lock it) You would almost never need more than 1.
This is Primeval Titan + Grave Titan in a card. I'm sold. With its cost, I'd be comfortable playing 2x easily but it's a very high potential card. I'd pick up more since it's so cheap at the moment.
I'd play Elspeth so I'd consider this too. The Batterskull reanimating upside makes it worth thinking about. I don't see more than 1 ever needed like Ob Nixilis but I'd get that 1x first.
This is like a mini Time Spiral that could go into a High Tide deck to untap Candelabras...
(A little pushing it)
Or maybe the same Dack Faden deck with Welders and Notion Thief?
