I want the guaranteed upside of something like Vanquisher's Banner first, but theres a pretty high ceiling on this
A new player can start with a starter product, preconstructed deck, or Commander deck without spending a huge amount
Its a card with only one printing, and it has some pretty archaic rules text
All this combined makes it impossible to make a "bad" Sauron deck since he brings so much value on his own, but we can definitely raise the power ceiling by making an optimized brew
Old Stickfingers Apart from being a great Halloween-themed commander with an appropriately goofy name, Old Stickfingers is a very powerful reanimator commander
One key difference is that if the bestowed creature is destroyed, the aura falls off to become a creature, but the mutated cards would all go to the graveyard
