Questions & Answers
FAQ
What is the best mana base for a Azorius Commander deck?
Azorius mana bases run Hallowed Fountain, Glacial Fortress, Prairie Stream, and Adarkar Wastes. Command Tower + Reflecting Pool round it out. Every Azorius deck should run Command Tower, Exotic Orchard, and a copy of Reflecting Pool. Beyond those, fill by budget: $50 = pain lands + tapped duals + basics; $100 = check lands; $250 = shocks + selective fetches; $500 = original duals + full fetch/shock synergy.
How many lands should a Azorius deck run?
A well-tuned Azorius Commander deck runs 36–38 lands. Aim for 36 unless the deck is heavy on X-spells or has multiple 5+ CMC spells. Fewer than 35 misses drops; more than 39 dilutes the game plan.
Which lands are auto-includes for Azorius?
Every Azorius deck runs Command Tower and Exotic Orchard. Path of Ancestry adds value in tribal builds; Mikokoro or Reliquary Tower for card-draw-heavy decks. Always leave 1–2 utility land slots for the specific archetype.
Is it worth running fetch lands in Azorius?
Fetches are strong but not mandatory in Azorius. Two-color mana bases can hit their color requirements without fetches, so budget fetches for other slots first.
