If you could move any general to a different color or colors, who would it be?
Personally, I might go for a blue Karn, silver golem or, even crazier, kiki-jiki, the mirror breaker. Note, they dont necessarily need to be moves that make sense, but it is encouraged.
Feel free to explain why you would change a commanders colors and what other cards you would want to use with them, but please only discuss color shifting generals, not other cards.
There was a similar thread about this but for just any card at all, whereas this is only for Commanders.
Enjoy!

The true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being lost. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginning-less time, darkness thrives in the void but always yields to purifying light.
I invision a future where one is not mighty when he can silence a crowd with brutality,
but when he leaves them speechless with wisdom.
Hmmm... a Mono-Green Braids, Conjurer Adept would be interesting. I mean green does have hypergenesis so the effect wouldn't be completely outside of it's color pie. I'll have to think if I can come up with any others.
ooooooo those are both excellent suggestions that make alot of sense!
Ive been thinking of starting this thread for a while but I was really worried people would just make silly/obnoxious suggestions if I actually posted this..
Way to make me not disappointed! lol
especially WRB isao. That would be a cool deck I think
EDIT: Lord Denju, I like the way you think! :D:D

i've always always wanted to make an edh landfall deck that actually made sense, so i'd move ob nixilis, the fallen to WBG!!! *swoon*
I could get behind that, though I would like UB a little better I think cause I like roil elemental alot and its ma fav color combo I agree though, ob-nixilis would be a cool landfall general with green on him somewhere

Agreed! he has always been a favorite of mine but Ive never been as successful with him as I would like.
hmmm maybe even a white black version or GB would be ineresting..
just moving him into most other colors opens it up soooooo much. mono-black is good but the other colors would offer a lot me thinks.
good pick!

I know, I want blue kikijiki mostly so I can copy mulldrifter, sea gate oracle and cryptic annelid etc all day long plus there are some nice combos that would be easier to do (read as pestermite..) plus all the good blue stuff yay blue!

I think it would be cool to shift Thrun, the Last Troll to W: it could use a good voltron general. Another cool pick would be to shift Azami, Lady of Scrolls to R (and goblins instead of wizards, lol). The aggro deck that never runs out of juice!
As a connoisseur of fun, interesting matches, I still to this day have not been able to craft that "perfect deck"; the deck that I can play and have fun over time, doesn't get boring, but simultaneously is fun to play against. I honestly don't think it exists. It's like a unicorn. A ninja unicorn.
Teneb to UBG. White has cool beaters, but blue offers a lot more synergy with the general via Looters.
Mageta the Lion as black. I mean, really, he wants everyone but him to die. Even at the cost of card advantage (may not be the case). Ability really makes me think black.
Kami of the Crescent Moon to UR. Owling Mine for EDH, plus his character really acted red in the story. He made a really complicated plan (blue) just so he could wander around and not have his responsibilites (red).
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

White already has a decent one in Kemba, Kha Regent, lots o' equipment.
This is a little different, but I'd love Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs in mono green (or red/green) but instead of producing Ogres, he produced elephants.
i've always always wanted to make an edh landfall deck that actually made sense, so i'd move ob nixilis, the fallen to WBG!!! *swoon*
Landfall make sense? or landfall compete with Sharuum and company.. My Azusa deck takes enormous advantage of Landfall and it works quite well.
Ontopic: GAkroma, Angel of The LeavesG. I would love a mono-green flyer who can lay down the serious beats, give her flying, trample, lifelink, (not troll-shroud, it's been over done in Isao & Thrun) and a Landfall ability... or a tap: do something useful, and i'de jump on her in a heartbeat.

hmmm green akroma. that's be a tasty one indeed.
also, I dont think white needs better voltron generals, I think it has enough. Though a white or white/red godo would be pretty cool, if only because then there would finally be a good WR general lol
theres something to discuss, what other cards would make WR significantly better if they were color-shifted? (and it made sense to do so..) granted, argus and razia are ok, but I often hear people wish for better commanders in this color combo. So who could get moved to complete this?

Being a Fumiko player, this has always been my wish.
I think if you were to throw another color or two (really doesn't even mater which ones) onto [CARD]Toshiro Umezawa
[/CARD] you would have one really sweet general. The non creature removal instants in mono black are so thin he really isn't worth it at present.
I think a five color Sisay deck would be pretty gruesome.

I really like that idea.
I also think Godo would be cool as RW especially since that color combo is unfortunately a bit underwhelming when it comes to general options. Godo with access to Sunforger seems amazing.

Omnath in R could be downright hilarious.
