<p><a href="https://edhrec.com/sets/eoe"><em>Edge of Eternities</em></a> preview season is here, and so far we've seen a lot of new cards that are out of this world. From the commons all the way up to the mythics, it looks to be a set filled with possible Commander staples.</p>
<p>On top of that, it also brings a new rules change to the format, with legendary Vehicles and Spacecraft being legal as your commander.</p>
<p>While we've only seen a handful of these hulking new Spacecraft, one of them has already caught the attention of the Commander community at large.</p>
<p><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Infinite Guideline Station" href="#" target="_blank">Infinite Guideline Station</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is a five-color commander that cares about multicolor permanents; which is just begging to be brewed around!</p>
<p>Join me, Tyler 'Savesya' Bucks, as I show you fourteen cards for under $14 that will get you ready to make this deck right when the set is released.</p>
<h2>The Commander - Infinite Guideline Station</h2>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Infinite Guideline Station"></div></div>
<p>Introducing the <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Infinite Guideline Station" href="#" target="_blank">Infinite Guideline Station</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, a five mana 7/15 that makes you 2/2 Robot tokens when it hits the board. It also has a new mechanic called 'Station', which shares some similarities to 'Crew' for Vehicles.</p>
<p>You can tap your creatures at sorcery speed to add charge counters to a Spacecraft, and in this case, once you hit twelve or more, it becomes a creature.</p>
<p>When it reaches that point, it can attack and block as normal. Which is great, because it also comes with a wicked attack trigger, drawing you a card for each multicolor permanent you control.</p>
<p>So, not only does this commander help you in the mid-game by making you a board of creature tokens, but it can also accelerate you into the late-game with refilling your hand.</p>
<h2>Multicolor-Matters</h2>
<p>With this list, I will be highlighting some great multicolor permanents you can play to maximize both of this Station's abilities, as well as tapping and counter synergies for getting those twelve charge counters.</p>
<p>Let's kick things off by looking at some amazing budget singles that care about cards with a multiple colors.</p>
<h3>Faeburrow Elder</h3>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Faeburrow Elder"></div></div>
<p>The perfect example of a multicolor-matters card, that benefits this deck in two different ways, is <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Faeburrow Elder" href="#" target="_blank">Faeburrow Elder</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. Not only is it a powerful mana dork, having the ability to generate you all five colors, but it can also grow in size as you build out your board.</p>
<p>That will allow you to tap it and add its power to the Infinite Guideline's Station cost the turn after it helped bring it onto the field.</p>
<h3>Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile</h3>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile"></div></div>
<p>Speaking of assisting with casting your commander, our next creature <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile" href="#" target="_blank">Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is here to help with that as well! Sure, it only filters your mana into WUBRG (so it isn't ramp like our last entry) but that can be incredibly beneficial in a pinch, if your mana isn't lining up.</p>
<p>On top of that, whenever you cast all the great cards we will be talking about today, you'll either scry 1, smoothing out your draws, or make a 4/4 flying Angel.</p>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">General Ferrous Rokiric</h3>
<p class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r "><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="General Ferrous Rokiric"></div></div></p>
<p>Let's add even more big tokens to the mix with <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="General Ferrous Rokiric" href="#" target="_blank">General Ferrous Rokiric</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. This legend has hexproof from monocolored, and makes you a 4/4 Golem creature token whenever you cast multicolored spells.</p>
<p>Not only are these amazing on offense and defense, but they're great for turning your commander into a creature. Having only three of those tokens on the board ensures you can reach twelve charge counters on the Station by tapping them right away.</p>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Knight of New Alara</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Knight of New Alara"></div></div></div>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Sometimes, going tall with your board might be better than going wide, and sometimes you can do both. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Knight of New Alara" href="#" target="_blank">Knight of New Alara</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> giving your other creatures +1/+1 for each of their colors is incredible in this deck.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Turning all of these multicolor creatures in the 99 into bigger beaters is great, but the fact that it will also make your commander a 12/20 once its Station cost is met is just the icing on the big scary cake...</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Rienne, Angel of Rebirth</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Rienne, Angel of Rebirth"></div></div></div>
</div>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>If you want to have your cake, and eat it too, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rienne, Angel of Rebirth" href="#" target="_blank">Rienne, Angel of Rebirth</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> will make sure none of your creature's leave the game for long. The power buff Rienne offers is amazing in this deck, since it assists with powering up your commander.</div>
<div>However, the main star of the show is that when you're ready to start your all-out attacks, you'll be able to get your multicolored creatures back if they bite the dust during combat. An effect like that is exactly the kind of value you need to lock down a game with this deck.</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Fallaji Wayfarer</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Fallaji Wayfarer"></div></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>Now I know <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Fallaji Wayfarer" href="#" target="_blank">Fallaji Wayfarer</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> looks out of place in this list, but believe it or not, it really is "all colors." Getting that value for only three mana is strong, but that last line of text is what puts this over the edge, giving all the multicolored spells you cast convoke.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Something that often gets overlooked with that ability is that your creatures pay for one generic <em>OR </em>one mana of the creature's color. Making the Wayfarer basically a five-color mana dork.</div>
<div>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Pillar of the Paruns</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Pillar of the Paruns"></div></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>Closing out the multicolored section, we have a land tailor made for this kind of deck. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Pillar of the Paruns" href="#" target="_blank">Pillar of the Paruns</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is an untapped land that makes a mana of any color, the small downside is that the mana can only be spent on multicolored spells... Which is no problem in this deck!</div>
<div></div>
<div>Sure, there may be a few cards here and there you can't cast with this, but the vast majority of the time, this will just be like another <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Command Tower" href="#" target="_blank">Command Tower</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> for you.</div>
<h2>Counters &amp; Tapping Synergies</h2>
<p>Now as you saw, multicolored permanents are incredibly important to making the <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Infinite Guideline Station" href="#" target="_blank">Infinite Guideline Station</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> tick, but let's dive into a few more ways to power up this commander.</p>
<p>These effects that will add more counters to the station, or give you benefits for tapping your creatures.</p>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Tidus, Yuna's Guardian</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Tidus, Yuna&#039;s Guardian"></div></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<div>Our first spell in this section adds some card draw, and proliferation to the mix. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Tidus, Yuna&#039;s Guardian" href="#" target="_blank">Tidus, Yuna&#039;s Guardian</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> will <em>cheer </em>on your creatures when they hit your opponents, which will get you that extra card, and add a counter to whatever permanent or player you want.</div>
<div></div>
<div>A creature like this incentivizes you to push damage forward, and pays you off with some card advantage, while getting you one step closer to powering up your commander!</div>
<div>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Cayth, Famed Mechanist</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Cayth, Famed Mechanist"></div></div></div>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Proliferate is one of the strongest mechanics in the game, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Cayth, Famed Mechanist" href="#" target="_blank">Cayth, Famed Mechanist</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> adds even more of it to the deck. Two mana and tapping could give you more counters, but it can also populate, which makes token copy of another one of your tokens.</div>
<div></div>
<div>As you've seen in this deck, we will have plenty of those laying around. On top of all of that, Cayth also gives your nontoken creatures Fabricate 1, which could sneak under your opponent's radar until your army of metal buddies is too much to handle.</div>
</div>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Mutational Advantage</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Mutational Advantage"></div></div></div>
</div>
<p>Our next card is the most expensive one on the list, but you'll see why I felt the need to include it here today. <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mutational Advantage" href="#" target="_blank">Mutational Advantage</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> protects anything on your board that has a counter on it with hexproof and indestructible, but it doesn't stop there.'</p>
<p>It also prevents any damage dealt to those permanents, and you proliferate. This can turn someone's attempted blowout into your successful blowout, and that's worth a few extra bucks if you ask me.</p>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Wylie Duke, Atiin Hero</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Wylie Duke, Atiin Hero"></div></div></div>
</div>
<p>Now say you want to hit those twelve counters on the <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Infinite Guideline Station" href="#" target="_blank">Infinite Guideline Station</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> with good ol' fashioned hard work, well <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Wylie Duke, Atiin Hero" href="#" target="_blank">Wylie Duke, Atiin Hero</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is here to pay you off for that. Whenever Wylie is tapped, you'll draw a card and gain one life.</p>
<p>Nothing too flashy here, just a big powered creature, adding value to your board in multiple ways... Do you think those <a href="https://edhrec.com/sets/otj"><em>Outlaws of Thunder Junction</em></a>'s heads would explode of they saw this big Spacecraft pull up to their plane? I wonder... Moving on with the list, sorry!</p>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Rip, Spawn Hunter</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Rip, Spawn Hunter"></div></div></div>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>The <em>Survival </em>ability from <a href="https://edhrec.com/sets/dsk"><em>Duskmourn</em></a> is perfect for a deck like this, and <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Rip, Spawn Hunter" href="#" target="_blank">Rip, Spawn Hunter</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> being multicolored makes it an even better fit.</div>
<div></div>
<div>On your second main phase, you'll be able to pull one or more of the awesome creatures on this list from the top of your library if Rip is tapped.</div>
<div></div>
<div>At the base level, you'll get to look at four cards, however when paired with an anthem effect like the <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Knight of New Alara" href="#" target="_blank">Knight of New Alara</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> for example, you can be looking at even more of your deck on each of your turns.</div>
<div>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Kiora's Follower</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Kiora&#039;s Follower"></div></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<div>While this might not be the flashiest card on the list, <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Kiora&#039;s Follower" href="#" target="_blank">Kiora&#039;s Follower</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> is an incredible value player in this deck. Not only does it provide some early game ramp by possibly untapping lands, but it can also be a way to untap one of your big creatures, to tap it again building towards that Station cost.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Once your commander is at full power, you could even untap it after you attack, and leave it up as a blocker. I've heard that a 7/15 flyer is pretty good at keeping your opponents at bay.</div>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<h3 class="cardDetailsOverlay_title__6Xo0r ">Sydri, Galvanic Genius</h3>
<div class="archidektDropdown_trigger__Wdtom " tabindex="0">
<div><div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Sydri, Galvanic Genius"></div></div></div>
<div></div>
<div>
<p>Closing out our list today, we have a way to get a little sneaky with this deck. Sure, Sydri's second ability makes your commander an even scarier attacker and blocker, however it's that first ability that put it on this list. One blue mana turns a noncreature artifact into a creature for the turn, with power and toughness equal to its mana value.</p>
<p>The <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Infinite Guideline Station" href="#" target="_blank">Infinite Guideline Station</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> specifically says that it <em>becomes</em> a creature at +12 charge counters, which means that you can turn it into a 5/5 at instant speed anytime you hold a blue mana up.</p>
<p>This little interaction can catch your opponents off guard if they think they have a lot more time before that station is mobile, giving you the element of surprise when it fires up, and heads into combat out of nowhere!</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<h2>In Closing</h2>
<p>So, there you have it, fourteen cards for under $14 that can get you started on a deck built around the <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Infinite Guideline Station" href="#" target="_blank">Infinite Guideline Station</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>.</p>
<p>If you want to see some of the cards that didn't make the list, but would still be great to fill out the 99, then check out the 'Maybe' board on <a href="https://archidekt.com/decks/14346599/infinite_guideline_station_edhrec_article_">my Archidekt here!</a></p>
