Forbid is nice.
And by nice, I mean, incredibly, horribly mean.

Bottled Cloister and this is just madness : You organize the stack so that you draw seven new cards, then reclaim your hand that you exiled last round.

It doesn't threaten to discard your hand to death like Jin-gitaxias, Core Augur sometimes does, and it is great for cards like Lorescale Coatl and Psychosis Crawler. Favourite general ever.

These are the best colors for card draw, so she makes perfect sense. The choice for the general of my second commander deck was easy.

Seems like a natural fit with Library of Alexandria-
you'll be drawing cards no matter what,
as long as you haven't made your hand size larger than 7...

I am surprised to see no one has mentioned manabond yet. Like null profusion, it's a great discard engine, let's you put down all your lands and then you will draw seven cards your next upkeep. Plus it only costs one forest!

I love using her in my The Mimeoplasm Dredge Commander deck with Zombie Infestation. Before the begining of my turn just discard all my dredge cards to Zombie Infestation and get a few 2/2 Zombies and then when I draw my cards just Dredge all my Dredge cards and mill half my library. Dread Return Lord of Extinction (Or use The Mimeoplasm to copy him and get 13 +1/+1 counters from Death's Shadow) and then Traumatize my opponent. Ends with a Huge Lord of Extinction with Trample due to Brawn.

You don't wanna run this with a lot of fat spells, you want to be largely low in cost so its easier to dump portions of your hand before next turn to get maximum benefit of her draw, loading with 1-for-1 spells like Go For The Throat and Naturalize with low cost mana artifacts like Coalition Relic, and you wanna run some discard engines as well like Psychatog . Board control is also ideal for when you first get her out there, so your opponents don't just kill her.

One card I was looking at for late game hand suppression was Words of Waste, where you forgo your massive hand draw in favor of tapping down some mana and making your opponents discard large portions of their hands. You wouldn't need to do this often because they will soon be top-decking where you will still be getting large amounts of draw. And then if you really wanna be mean, combine this tactic with Geth's ... (see all)

@ShiftyShifts, that's why you don't get her out until you have a form of discard to feed her. My favorite combo is Damia and Zombie Infestation with Kozilek and Ullamog for recycling purposes.

Masumaro, First to Live

When I saw her, that's all I could think about.

I've got a Zombie Infestation in mine.

ShiftyShifts: If you take apart every deck that has a bad game, you might as well give up Magic. Bad things happening occasionally is kinda part of the game.
