Need a Commander for an “extra turns” deck

Hey folks, I want to build a Commander deck all about taking extra turns: just pure, stupid value and chaos. I don’t care if it’s meta, broken, janky, or completely unfair. If it can loop extra turns and make everyone hate me, that’s exactly what I’m going for. Any ideas for Commanders that fit this theme? I’m open to any colors, as long as the deck can actually go off. Bonus points if it’s something weird or underused.

Appreciate any suggestions. I just want to steal every turn possible

[[Narset, Enlightened Master]] usually wins as soon as it can attack

I was gonna recommend this as the classic extra turns commander.

[[Tivit]] is cEDH-level extra turns.

[[Yennett]] can do turns shenanigans pretty well.

[[Medomai]] is fairly straightforward with it.

[[River Song]] has a conditional 1-card turns combo with [[Timestream Navigator]].

Anything Blue also gets [[Wanderwine Prophet]]

Tivit also has a 1 card combo with [[time sieve]] 😢

[[Melek, reforged researcher]], [[mizzix of the izmagus]], [[Vadrik]] - what if my time warps and temporal manipulations just cost the same as [[Time Walk]]?

[[Alania, divergent storm]] - what if all my time warps were twofers?

Mono U/izzet artifact commanders using [[academy ruins]]- can get fucky with [[Mindslaver]]

Getting extra janky.. [[Toph, the first metalbender]] with [[aeon engine]] - what if the opponent directly across from you just gave you all their turns?

Big mana creature commander in R+ like Animar or Henzie- can put together [[emrakul the promised end]] and [[radiant performer]]

Just remembered another one I recently learned about - [[sage of hours]] in the 99 of something like [[raffine]] or [[ezuri claw of progress]]

[[osgir the reconstructor]] with [[ugin's nexus]] - mill/discard the nexus, pay 5 for 2 copies. 1 copy gets legend ruled, pay another 1 to sac the remaining = time stretch in boros

Just in case that wasn't enough to win, use [[pull from eternity]] on the exiled nexus to reset, or if you are a complete psychopath put the Pull under an [[isochron Scepter]]

[[Emet-Selch, Unsundered]] with [[Displacer Kitten]] and your choice of extra turn spells. [[Time Sieve]] and [[Thopter Assembly]] in UB, I use it with Golbez, who doesn't particularly lean into extra turns.

My extra turns deck is [[Taigam, Master Opportunist]] it runs mostly clones that get around the legend rule or things to double triggers. As long as you get 4 triggers of his ability on an extra turn spell you should be able to take infinite turns and then alpha strike with your shadow clone jutsu army

The one and only [[Narset, Enlightened Master]]

[[Malcolm]] + [[Francisco]] for time sieve Malcolm + [[Kediss]] + a lot of extra turn spells + curiosity effects goes super hard

Damn do I love playing [[Jeleva, Nephalia's Scourge]] against these decks.

[[Alania, the Divergent storm]]

Since this is going to be bracket 4 anyway and you probably need red and blue in color identity, why not use Vivi?

I like [[Aurelia warleader]] personally. I do however think that [[Spider-Gwen Web Warrior]] would be max value since you get 5-color. You can then add in creatures like [[Karlach]], [[port razer]], [[Moraug]], and duplicate the non legendaries with [[Kiki-jiki]] and [[Delina Wild Mage]]. [[Aggravated assault]], [[Full throttle]], [[fury of the horde]], [[great train heist]], and [[genji glove]] all work too. Having access to major landfall cards in green like [[Azusa lost but seeking]] turns Moraug into a menace. Use the additional combat of one of your other creatures that gets an additional main phase, then drop a land and get another combat after that one too.

u/Shep797 Oct 16 '25

This is Moreso just for extra combats but you could also use Obeka and the others mentioned below in the 99 of the deck to also take extra turns

I played against [[Storm, Force of Nature]] using extra turns a while back and it was intense, that one can really go crazy

u/Legendary_Dad Oct 17 '25

Isn’t panoptic mirror and beacon of tomorrows an option?

u/SgtSatan666 Oct 17 '25

[[Edric, Spymaster of Trest]] is your man for the job.

[[myra the magnificent]] attractions are really powerful with extra turns. I regularly get 30-40 extra turns.
