About this Tom Bombadil deck

The list is drawn from what Tom Bombadil decks actually play. Of the cards that fit the budget, the most played are Binding the Old Gods, Satsuki, the Living Lore and The Eldest Reborn. The picks most particular to this commander are The Bath Song, Goldberry, River-Daughter and Elspeth Conquers Death, which turn up here far more often than in other Five-color decks.

These targets add up to 108 because a card can fill more than one role. 10 of your cards count in multiple rows. Modal spell/land cards count as whole lands here; the card-type sections use the front face. Your commander is excluded from these counts.

Roles use imported classifications or curated sample labels. 0 cards lack role data, so counts may be incomplete. Plan counts the cards that fill none of the rows above: the ones this commander’s decks play most distinctively, taken best first once the role targets are met.
