I'm relatively new to magic and I've been enjoying all the various tribes/types/groups/themes you can build around. I like that you can build a cat deck or a dragon deck or a crab deck or an angel deck or a vehicle deck and all work with lots of options. What's your favourite theme and what are some of your favourite cards for that theme?

I love building tribal most of the time. I’ve built countless Human decks in every combination of colours.

What format do you play? Would help with recommending some themes and cards.

Do you like to use Jerren, Corrupted Bishop?

The few Human decks I’ve built with black have been moire +1/+1 counter oriented, and less tokens so he hasn’t really found a home in my decks yet.

It's funny how many options you get for human tribal, but I guess that's part of the point 😅 Do you make exceptions to your themes and include non-humans (like Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider)?

What is your favorite 2 Human commanders to build around? I made a Jirina Kudro deck but I could never hold my own at the table with it and ended up giving it up for something else. I like the idea of human tribal though. Looking for some suggestions of you have them. I'm a Johnny-Spike if that helps.
