Axiom #1 is a 100-card Commander deck led by Marneus Calgar in the Esper color identity (white/blue/black). TableCommander estimates this deck at bracket 4 — optimized / high-power.

The mainboard runs 12 creatures, 17 instants, 6 sorceries, 16 artifacts, 11 enchantments, 2 planeswalkers, and 36 lands, averaging 2.55 mana value across non-land cards. 80% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 11% cost 5 or more.

Notable inclusions: 14 game changers (e.g. Fierce Guardianship, Mox Diamond, and Chrome Mox), 2 fast mana (An Offer You Can't Refuse and Lotus Petal), 1 alternate win condition (Revel in Riches), 1 free counterspell (Force of Negation), and 1 tutor (Idyllic Tutor). This deck is currently Commander-legal on TableCommander.
