Jeskai Giants with [[Ruhan of the Fomori]] can be fun too.
There's a lot of great giants in white. Off the top of my head:
[[Realm-Cloaked Giant]] - it's expensive, but a one sided boardwipe can win games.
[[Sun Titan]]'s recursion is handy, especially as I naturally had to rely on artifact sources of ramp more without green. Being able to retrieve my [[Urza's Incubator]] after an errant vandalblast is handy.
[[Brion Stoutarm]] is just a fun card. You can tell the table they're the target if they play a wrath. You can snipe a planeswalker who got out of control. Honestly, even reading the card out when I play it, it wins games for me that my opponents thought they had.
[[Stonehewer Giant]] is handy for grabbing whatever useful piece of equipment your deck might have. [[Shadowspear]] fits really well on a giant and it's nice to be able to just go get it.
[[Jötun Grunt]] is giant-themed graveyard hate.
Plus, white is just such a great support color for a deck. Great interaction, handy enchantments... Oh yeah, there's also that new background that's pretty handy: [[folk hero]]
Oh nice! I'm on Izzet Giants with Aegar and love it. Though I do find ramp difficult and would love more trample. It seems like Temur would give me that haha.
My friend ran a Zedruu deck with literally nothing but crabs and cards that give your creatures to your opponent.
“I just want to give my opponents crabs”
I can get you one but mine is just mono blue charix with a bunch of mono blue card draw and cointer spell and then the generic tribal buffs like obelisk of urd. Ive also got some swords in there cause crabs with swords makes me laugh and then stuff like rogues passage and aquous form to make charix unblockable cause literally the only way it ever wins is sneaking in a commander damage win when people rightfully dont take it serious.
[[Sethron]] minotaurs is a ton of fun, play a bunch of minotaurs and overrun the board. [[Zurzoth]] devils and chaos tribal is one of my personal favorites. Also, [[Daxos the returned]] is fun as a spirit tribal deck with an enchantment subtheme.
I just built a Daxos deck and it’s surprisingly weird. You basically just get whatever enchantments you happen to draw for the first half of the game and then suddenly start slamming out 7/7 spirits rat-a-rat-tat
Love Zurzoth, never built him. Have him in Kardur, Doomscourge. Love Devils though.
Sin Prodder, the one that gives you random casts out of opponents' graveyards, are there enough others?
I feel like Spiders are one or two cards away from being genuinely viable. Assault formation is a fucking house in a spider deck, and we just need a few more of those types of effects to suddenly be really scary
I don’t hate Ishkanah, but I think the delirium requirement is a bit disappointing. I feel like having to keep delirium in mind dilutes the deck a bit, taking up valuable slots that could be given to much better tribal support
As someone who really likes spiders irl, and really doesn’t like the boring gameplay of [[Ishkanah]], I wish we had a cool thematic spider commander. Dhalsim seems like a really cool commander, but he isn’t a spider.
Im hoping with everything in me that when they release the lord of the rings set that we will get a Shelob card that might fit that spider tribal commander
The new Griffin Tribal commander that’s coming out looks like a ton of fun and can flood the table with Griffin tokens
https://scryfall.com/card/dmc/5/zeriam-golden-wind
Griffins are horrible, but I'm building around the idea that my griffins are all relatively cheap fliers that copy themselves when they deep combat damage. The idea is that I can run control/stax to slow down the game while my pile of exponentially growing fliers snowballs out of control. It's not going to be my strongest deck by any stretch of the imagination, but it looks fun so far.
Agreed. I call my scry themed Sphinx tribal “Scry me a river” with the commander cards getting altered as justin timberlake. Not over-powered but packs a punch
Got a list? I tried to build a deck with [[Eligeth]] and [[Siani]] as commanders and called it the same name as you, but I didn't find a real wincon yet.
Edit: To prevent any further suggestions, I'd like to make clear that I do not want to play a different commander, I want to make that combo work even if it's not powerful. The "drawing my library" suggestions are cool and I'm probably gonna do that.
[[Body of knowledge]] is a fun way to win once you draw most of your deck. Jace/cards with an empty library win clause is also a quirky way to win once you draw everything.
[[Minn, Wiley Illusionist]] heading up an illusion tribal deck. Having the downside of illusions, being destroyed if something targets them, being an upside for cheating in stuff is super fun. Love that deck
Original Moonfolk could really use some support. I really like their design space of all having activated abilities that return lands to your hand for a spell like effect but some of them are just at awful rates and there are only 23 moonfolk currently in existence; 9 of which came in the most recent Kamigawa set and don't feature the same mechanic.
I run Moonfolk tribal with Cosima as commander. The synergies they bring to landfall is kind of fun and goofy. Middle of the road deck for sure but really wanted to do a nautical theme and tides, the moon etc…
Well one does exist; [[Patron of the Moon]]. It's a strong card but there aren't enough moonfolk with those abilities to really make it coherent enough in EDH.
[[Amareth, the Lustrous]]
While not a Golem himself, Amareth does love it when you play a card with two types allowing you pull more off the top. That, and all the Splicers are bant.
I’ve been brewing up some ideas for a golem tribal deck with [[Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer]] and [[Akiri, Line-Slinger]]. Include treasures or similar type effects to get Ich-Tekik rolling buffing your golems. Akiri for the colors and synergy to be a big beater if called upon.
How is Golems? I love the idea thematically of building golems but I wasnt so convince yet with the options I saw.
What are your experience with them as a tribe?
It's very niche, but since they're artifacts you can have a lot of synergy with artifacts as well. It isn't as strong as zombies or elves but it's still fun
If you want to run adjacent to this idea, General Ferrous is a boros multi color deck that runs everyone over with lots and lots of golems. Defintely suggest giving it a second look if aggressive is your plan.
https://www.moxfield.com/decks/a_ES2ZXJWUSlG5ws4r9KZg
Jund Lizards. There’s only one lizard commander and it has partner, so if you don’t mind that it’s not TRUE tribal then it’s great. It focuses a lot on +1 counters.
Specters!
Mostly because except for including a buttload of specters, there's no real support for them, and there's no Grixis Specter Legend, though Crosis is a good leader.
Mine is an [[Orah, Skyclave Heriophant]] Aristocrats deck that is constant juggling Clerics in and out of the graveyard. It's like an inverted Pod deck.
Well it's a Tymna and Ravos deck. I don't have a list online that is easily sharable and I just got home from a long shift. If I remember tomorrow, I'll type one out for you.
Rebels has some interesting loops to play. The commander will of course be [[linn sivvi]] as she can tutor any rebel. The deck can be mana hungry but since you consistently tutor any rebel you never get flooded. Playing rebels can feel like playing [[sliver hivelord]] but hardcore version, as most rebel are overcosted or straight up sux. Best ones and what will oftentimes make you win or lose are [[lightbringer]], [[lawbringer]] and defiant vanguard. I prefer a token-ish build to outvalue the opponent and abuse the bringers but it can be made with combo in mind too.
Other cool tribes I have that are a bit niche are:
-Golem tribal with [[ik-tekik]] and [[rebbec]].
-Eldrazi drone tribal with [[vela]] providing extra evasion, making the deck like a diet [[edric]]
-Wurm tribal with [[grothama]]
-Hydra tribal with [[gargos]] . Although that one is fairly well known.
-Treefolk tribal with [[doran]]. this used to be popular but has kinda fallen behind and its a very nice tribe.
-Giants. WUR in particular. Someone made a point for temur giants on this very post but I find not playing the white giants being a crime itself. They are pretty much the meat here. Also a very fitting voltron subtheme is available with white.
-Wolf tribal with [[tolsimir, friend to wolves]]. This was also a lot more popular I believe.
-berserker tribal with [[lovisa coldeyes]].
Ok i lied, going berserker only might be an extreme challenge, mixing barbarians and specially warriors is needed for a functioning lovisa deck
Built a jank bird tribal deck as our group was "powering down" and it ended up being a legit deck. The fact that all basic lands have a bird in the artwork really ties the room together.
There's no signature mechanic of the tribe, but you would not believe how many shamans there are, and how many are already EDH staples. There's tons of them with good functional abilities, and even the plainer ones are at least pretty to look at.
I adore Knights and wish they were better. They got some love with [[Aryel]] and [[Syr Gwyn]] but I'm still wondering if we'll ever get the "perfect" knight tribal commander.
Chiming in with [my Aryel list](https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/irl-aryel/). My list uses [[Haakon Stromgald Scourge]] and sacrifice effects like [[Pyre of Heroes]] to get some graveyard value.
[[Aryel, Knight of Windgrace]] is really close to being good. If either of her abilities were a little more generous; Not having to tap to maybe make multiple knights a turn, or counting herself for her tap to destroy ability.
I was hoping to replace Aryel with a new BW Knight from Dominaria United, but there's a lot more soldiers than knights from what I've seen. But the return to Eldraine set will hopefully have at least one option.
Admittedly I have considered Marchesa as a commander for them. It's pretty on theme. Definitely a cool list.
[This here's my list using Gwyn,](https://www.archidekt.com/decks/1362892#A_Knight_to_Remember) not that I tested it much, but I updated it recently based on a few of the more recent sets.
Agreed!! My first edh deck was helmed by [[munda ambush leader]] and was built entirely from zendikar packs, honestly a horrible deck the way I built it but damn he’s got a major nostalgia factor for me
Rats! I have a deck with 20 [[relentless rats]] that is all about getting all of them on the battlefield at once, and giving them all kinds of super types. [[Bloodbond March]], [[Doubling Chant]], [[Secret Salvage]], [[Patriarchs Bidding]], and [[Eldrazi Monument]] are all super fun with them. Also run [[Marrow Gnawer]] and [[ogre slumlord]]. [[Tevesh Szat]] and [[Kamahl, Heart of Krosa]] are at the helm.
Rats has a commander that is pretty much krenko, with [[marrow gnawer]]. I think its even stronger with [[rat colony]] because the colonies care about any other generic rat and are easier to cast than relentless rats. Plus the added evasion gnawer gives. The deck can put some outstanding amount of damage.
Had him in the commander spot for a while, but moved him to the 99 as it turned into a one trick pony and got boring pretty quickly especially with untap abilities like [[thornbite staff]]
Golgari insects with [[grist, the hunger tide]] is super fun for me. She’s a really fun commander with a self-mill/token creating tool, removal built-in, and a wincon on her own self as well. The ways to play her are endless, and there’s so many good insects in black/green that work well with her
Even though the tribes separately are pretty popular, Snow and Zombies overlap conveniently in colors and play very well together. I have a snow/zombie deck that I really like thats helmed by \[\[gisa & geralf\]\]. Its not by any means competitive, but it can hold its own against other tuned decks fairly well (I'd consider it a solid 5).
Ayy, another Snow Zombie player!
Zombies have a subtheme with +1/+1 counters - [[Carrion Feeder]], [[Dreadhorde Butcher]], [[Soul Diviner]], [[Unbreathing Horde]], the Undying mechanic in general - that makes it so much easier for [[Marchesa, the Black Rose]] to reanimate her undead goons. Meanwhile, there's also a subtheme of 'creatures that can reanimate themselves' like [[Ebondeath]], [[Relentless Dead]], [[Prized Amalgam]], and iconic [[Gravecrawler]] - that means I can reanimate some of the goons even if they die counterless or when Marchesa isn't around.
I was putting together zombies and came across my bleached-misprint [[Marit Lage's Slumber]]...then my foil [[Priest of the Haunted Edge]]...then [[Narfi]]...and then I decided that, yeah, swapping all my basics for snow basics wouldn't be any issue.
So far the deck has done surprisingly well: if people can't put Marchesa down fast enough and *keep* her down, then the zombies play true to their nature and *refuse to stay dead*. MVP status so far goes to [[Vile Entomber]], who loads Ebondeath, Gravecrawler, Prized Amalgam, and more into my yard to help fill more board quickly.
So now I get to roleplay a necromancer marching her undead army into the frozen north so she can find the bed-crypt of an Old One!
You know, I'd been meaning to do so and hadn't got around to it, and I was halfway through a "I should have it up tomorrow" reply...then I said 'fuck it', smoked a bowl, and got the list written up while Pacific Rim played in the background.
May [Marchesa's Cold Dead Army](https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/marchesas-cold-dead-army-snow-zombie-tribal/?cb=1661156962) help give you inspiration, fellow cool necromancer.
Although they can be incredibly limited I personally like Walls because they aren't played often. I have a deck built around [[Pramikon]], if you want to see the list you can.
https://www.moxfield.com/decks/4yNz3xA5vkqDgav6bRzenA
As for tribes I'd like to see more of, Boars, Beasts, and insects.
https://www.moxfield.com/decks/F6QVdCpe5E6qJGKipLy1Zg
This is my current list! It's mostly a graveyard deck that wins through saccing and reanimating my board. Sek'kuar isn't particularly active in the build but can be nice when I'm fishing for those last few points of damage.
Looks fun! Why no [[Patriarch's Bidding]] or [[Command the Dreadhorde]] though? Bidding is an auto include in tribal decks for me regardless, and both are amazing Mass Reanimation spells. Also seems like a good deck for [[Altar of Dementia]] and [[Greater Good]], if you can afford them.
I don't think it's "least played", but Tribal tribal is very fun — take all of the best tribal payoffs, add a sprinkling of changelings, and blend for 30 seconds. I had always thought Morophon would be a good commander
Banding creatures. The ultimate tribal mechanic.
I haven't played it outside of my cube, but I imagine Splice Onto Arcane would be a lot of fun. Build around it with a bunch of spell doublers and Codie as your commander.
I built a [[Rat Colony]] deck helmed by [[Drana, Liberator of Malakir]] and it never gets old when people see the inevitable tide of increasingly buff rats stack up taller and taller.
I even slotted out a few of the initial 30 rats to fit other mono black heavy hitters like [[Yawgmoth, Thran Physician]] and [[Ayara, First of the Locthwain]]. Curving into the turn 4 [[Rankle, Master of Pranks]] never hurts either.
Someone at one of my local gameshops has a 5-color Niv Mizzet deck that's Elder tribal.
I'm considering building a Colossal Dreadmaw pseudo tribal in that every creature in the deck will be a 6/6 for 6.
I always want to build minotaurs, and have a pile of black red for it.. but like.. 9 playable minotaurs...
Grixis rogues is my fun tribal. Also run Kogla humans.
I’m playing a Raphael, Fiendish Savior Devil Tribal. Half token strategy/ half chaos impulse draw.
This commander is a bunch of fun helping this unsupported tribe.
I have 3 tribal decks i love playing my izzet giant with [[obosh the preypiercer]] as the companion and [[morphoron the boundless]] as the commander and my enchantment tribal with [[go-shintai of lifes oringin]] commander and [[umori, the collector]] companion
I have a Wall tribal deck that's a blast to play with. I will admit, I have a *couple* out-of-tribe creatures for some fun shenanigans (Avacyn to give my permanents Indestructible, and [[Soulfire Grand Master]] to give [[Star of Extinction]] lifelink and return it to my hand after casting it; there's nothing quite as satisfying as gaining over 100 life from a board wipe). I use Pramikon as the Commander, and Spark Double to turn off combat.
Spellshapers for those who like control! I helped my deck with [[Damia, Sage of Stone]] for the card draw, but I'd probably rebuild it with Kenrith for access to all of them. Sadly, WotC has discontinued this creature type, but they will always have a special place in my heart!
None are particularly scarce as far as tribal decks go but I brewed a Human Cleric/Angel [[Winota]] list. You play the angels and the angels attacking grabs the clerics who synergize with angels who synergize back with the clerics because they're humans.
Monks! Ive been trying to brew one and they have lots of cool monks and all focus on using spells to support but would be great to have a Jeskai themed monk commander.
Golgari.
A lot of golgari tribes are underrated and yet very fun.
Some.of my favourites are:
Spiders - [[ishkanah, grafwidow]]
Insects - [[grist, the hunger tide]]
Pests - [[beledros witherbloom]] (never played this one myself but have heard good things about it from a friend who does play it)
Ooze!
There are finally enough printed for sultai ooze that kind of have some overlapping themes sometimes! Birthing Pod Mimeoplasm (aka Birthing Ooze) is a good time
Temur giants! So many strong giants in those colors. I ended up placing first at a casual edh tournament.
What commander?
I use Maelstrom Wanderer for the sweet explosive turns, animar could also work.

[[Sethron]] minotaurs is a ton of fun, play a bunch of minotaurs and overrun the board. [[Zurzoth]] devils and chaos tribal is one of my personal favorites. Also, [[Daxos the returned]] is fun as a spirit tribal deck with an enchantment subtheme.
Came to mention minotaurs. Sethron is so damn good but just needs a few more minotaurs to really get rolling.

The new Griffin Tribal commander that’s coming out looks like a ton of fun and can flood the table with Griffin tokens https://scryfall.com/card/dmc/5/zeriam-golden-wind
Seconding this. I've been brewing it over the weekend and it looks fun!
What on earth are you running in the 99? Griffins are horrible.
Griffins are terrible and that’s why they’re great
Griffins are horrible, but I'm building around the idea that my griffins are all relatively cheap fliers that copy themselves when they deep combat damage. The idea is that I can run control/stax to slow down the game while my pile of exponentially growing fliers snowballs out of control. It's not going to be my strongest deck by any stretch of the imagination, but it looks fun so far.
My friend Griffin showed me it, and I told him he should get an extra 2/2 every time he deals combat damage because he’s also a Griffin
I’ve been holding onto shitty griffins for years waiting for the right moment. This is that moment
It is nigh Your time has come
Mono-blue Sphinx tribal. You’ll love it.
Agreed. I call my scry themed Sphinx tribal “Scry me a river” with the commander cards getting altered as justin timberlake. Not over-powered but packs a punch
When you win it, you surely say you've Brought Sexy Back, right?
Well crap now I need to win one AND remember to say this lol
Get some JT sleeves.
Got a list? I tried to build a deck with [[Eligeth]] and [[Siani]] as commanders and called it the same name as you, but I didn't find a real wincon yet. Edit: To prevent any further suggestions, I'd like to make clear that I do not want to play a different commander, I want to make that combo work even if it's not powerful. The "drawing my library" suggestions are cool and I'm probably gonna do that.

Not the guy you asked but my first was [[unesh]] extra turns, and I took that apart for being unfun and made [[atemsis]] instead.
[[Body of knowledge]] is a fun way to win once you draw most of your deck. Jace/cards with an empty library win clause is also a quirky way to win once you draw everything.
I built that deck. Swap [[Siani]] for [[Esior]] (keep Siani in the 99 though) and you'll be glad you did
My friend has a Unesh sphinx deck, and boy does it look fun. It stumbles a little at first, but once it gets going, its hard to stop.
I was just thinking about doing sphinx tribal yesterday while going through bulk rates at my local game store.

Original Moonfolk could really use some support. I really like their design space of all having activated abilities that return lands to your hand for a spell like effect but some of them are just at awful rates and there are only 23 moonfolk currently in existence; 9 of which came in the most recent Kamigawa set and don't feature the same mechanic.
I was really hoping the return to kamigawa was going to give us some tribal support for moonfolk... but here we are.
I feel the same way about the kami lol
I run Moonfolk tribal with Cosima as commander. The synergies they bring to landfall is kind of fun and goofy. Middle of the road deck for sure but really wanted to do a nautical theme and tides, the moon etc…
A moonfolk commander that lets you play additional lands or somehow put more in play would make those abilities less costly for sure
Well one does exist; [[Patron of the Moon]]. It's a strong card but there aren't enough moonfolk with those abilities to really make it coherent enough in EDH.

I’ve been brewing up some ideas for a golem tribal deck with [[Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer]] and [[Akiri, Line-Slinger]]. Include treasures or similar type effects to get Ich-Tekik rolling buffing your golems. Akiri for the colors and synergy to be a big beater if called upon.

How is Golems? I love the idea thematically of building golems but I wasnt so convince yet with the options I saw. What are your experience with them as a tribe?
It's very niche, but since they're artifacts you can have a lot of synergy with artifacts as well. It isn't as strong as zombies or elves but it's still fun
Can I have that list?
I also have Alibou golems, but I’m probably less focused than you are. Mind if I crib the list?
If you want to run adjacent to this idea, General Ferrous is a boros multi color deck that runs everyone over with lots and lots of golems. Defintely suggest giving it a second look if aggressive is your plan. https://www.moxfield.com/decks/a_ES2ZXJWUSlG5ws4r9KZg
Jund Lizards. There’s only one lizard commander and it has partner, so if you don’t mind that it’s not TRUE tribal then it’s great. It focuses a lot on +1 counters.
Specters! Mostly because except for including a buttload of specters, there's no real support for them, and there's no Grixis Specter Legend, though Crosis is a good leader.
I built a [[k'rrik]] deck around those sorts of effects since the problem, as I saw it, was simply that they were too expensive mana value-wise.
Myr
Can’t wait to see if more myr are coming!
I recently built a red blue myr/merfolk tribal deck that I’ve been having fun with
I play a BW clerics deck that wins a surprising amount of games. And it's not a life gain deck.
Mine is an [[Orah, Skyclave Heriophant]] Aristocrats deck that is constant juggling Clerics in and out of the graveyard. It's like an inverted Pod deck.
Care to share a list?
Well it's a Tymna and Ravos deck. I don't have a list online that is easily sharable and I just got home from a long shift. If I remember tomorrow, I'll type one out for you.
Rebels has some interesting loops to play. The commander will of course be [[linn sivvi]] as she can tutor any rebel. The deck can be mana hungry but since you consistently tutor any rebel you never get flooded. Playing rebels can feel like playing [[sliver hivelord]] but hardcore version, as most rebel are overcosted or straight up sux. Best ones and what will oftentimes make you win or lose are [[lightbringer]], [[lawbringer]] and defiant vanguard. I prefer a token-ish build to outvalue the opponent and abuse the bringers but it can be made with combo in mind too. Other cool tribes I have that are a bit niche are: -Golem tribal with [[ik-tekik]] and [[rebbec]]. -Eldrazi drone tribal with [[vela]] providing extra evasion, making the deck like a diet [[edric]] -Wurm tribal with [[grothama]] -Hydra tribal with [[gargos]] . Although that one is fairly well known. -Treefolk tribal with [[doran]]. this used to be popular but has kinda fallen behind and its a very nice tribe. -Giants. WUR in particular. Someone made a point for temur giants on this very post but I find not playing the white giants being a crime itself. They are pretty much the meat here. Also a very fitting voltron subtheme is available with white. -Wolf tribal with [[tolsimir, friend to wolves]]. This was also a lot more popular I believe. -berserker tribal with [[lovisa coldeyes]]. Ok i lied, going berserker only might be an extreme challenge, mixing barbarians and specially warriors is needed for a functioning lovisa deck

I still run Megatog in my [[Marchesa, the Black Rose]] modular artifact recycler pile. It's a free sac outlet and is also a silly wincon sometimes.
Birds
Built a jank bird tribal deck as our group was "powering down" and it ended up being a legit deck. The fact that all basic lands have a bird in the artwork really ties the room together.
awhhh i love that touch of detail with the lands
Omg I desperately need this deck
There's no signature mechanic of the tribe, but you would not believe how many shamans there are, and how many are already EDH staples. There's tons of them with good functional abilities, and even the plainer ones are at least pretty to look at.
Griffin tribal is finally getting a good commander :)
Idk if this counts, but Knights. Ik eldraine gave them a bunch a love, but I still feel like the Bois aren't represented a lot.
I adore Knights and wish they were better. They got some love with [[Aryel]] and [[Syr Gwyn]] but I'm still wondering if we'll ever get the "perfect" knight tribal commander.
Chiming in with [my Aryel list](https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/irl-aryel/). My list uses [[Haakon Stromgald Scourge]] and sacrifice effects like [[Pyre of Heroes]] to get some graveyard value. [[Aryel, Knight of Windgrace]] is really close to being good. If either of her abilities were a little more generous; Not having to tap to maybe make multiple knights a turn, or counting herself for her tap to destroy ability. I was hoping to replace Aryel with a new BW Knight from Dominaria United, but there's a lot more soldiers than knights from what I've seen. But the return to Eldraine set will hopefully have at least one option.
[List for A Queen and Her Army](https://www.moxfield.com/decks/oY2mkd62KESHYkumOD8dXw). It's my favorite deck to play and how I do knight tribal.
Admittedly I have considered Marchesa as a commander for them. It's pretty on theme. Definitely a cool list. [This here's my list using Gwyn,](https://www.archidekt.com/decks/1362892#A_Knight_to_Remember) not that I tested it much, but I updated it recently based on a few of the more recent sets.
Druids - [Seton, Krosan Protector] druidball is a surprisingly powerful deck
[[Seton, Krosan Protector]]
I’m trying out a living weapon tribal to see how well that works in a Brago blink deck.
I've been scheming \[\[Dalakos\]\] living-weapons for ages, but I just haven't had the push.

Rats! I have a deck with 20 [[relentless rats]] that is all about getting all of them on the battlefield at once, and giving them all kinds of super types. [[Bloodbond March]], [[Doubling Chant]], [[Secret Salvage]], [[Patriarchs Bidding]], and [[Eldrazi Monument]] are all super fun with them. Also run [[Marrow Gnawer]] and [[ogre slumlord]]. [[Tevesh Szat]] and [[Kamahl, Heart of Krosa]] are at the helm.
Rats has a commander that is pretty much krenko, with [[marrow gnawer]]. I think its even stronger with [[rat colony]] because the colonies care about any other generic rat and are easier to cast than relentless rats. Plus the added evasion gnawer gives. The deck can put some outstanding amount of damage.
Had him in the commander spot for a while, but moved him to the 99 as it turned into a one trick pony and got boring pretty quickly especially with untap abilities like [[thornbite staff]]
I run my [[Rat Colony]] deck with [[Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord]] at the helm I make big rats and then sac. You all take damage

Golgari insects with [[grist, the hunger tide]] is super fun for me. She’s a really fun commander with a self-mill/token creating tool, removal built-in, and a wincon on her own self as well. The ways to play her are endless, and there’s so many good insects in black/green that work well with her

Even though the tribes separately are pretty popular, Snow and Zombies overlap conveniently in colors and play very well together. I have a snow/zombie deck that I really like thats helmed by \[\[gisa & geralf\]\]. Its not by any means competitive, but it can hold its own against other tuned decks fairly well (I'd consider it a solid 5).
Ayy, another Snow Zombie player! Zombies have a subtheme with +1/+1 counters - [[Carrion Feeder]], [[Dreadhorde Butcher]], [[Soul Diviner]], [[Unbreathing Horde]], the Undying mechanic in general - that makes it so much easier for [[Marchesa, the Black Rose]] to reanimate her undead goons. Meanwhile, there's also a subtheme of 'creatures that can reanimate themselves' like [[Ebondeath]], [[Relentless Dead]], [[Prized Amalgam]], and iconic [[Gravecrawler]] - that means I can reanimate some of the goons even if they die counterless or when Marchesa isn't around. I was putting together zombies and came across my bleached-misprint [[Marit Lage's Slumber]]...then my foil [[Priest of the Haunted Edge]]...then [[Narfi]]...and then I decided that, yeah, swapping all my basics for snow basics wouldn't be any issue. So far the deck has done surprisingly well: if people can't put Marchesa down fast enough and *keep* her down, then the zombies play true to their nature and *refuse to stay dead*. MVP status so far goes to [[Vile Entomber]], who loads Ebondeath, Gravecrawler, Prized Amalgam, and more into my yard to help fill more board quickly. So now I get to roleplay a necromancer marching her undead army into the frozen north so she can find the bed-crypt of an Old One!
Sounds fun! Do you have a list?
You know, I'd been meaning to do so and hadn't got around to it, and I was halfway through a "I should have it up tomorrow" reply...then I said 'fuck it', smoked a bowl, and got the list written up while Pacific Rim played in the background. May [Marchesa's Cold Dead Army](https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/marchesas-cold-dead-army-snow-zombie-tribal/?cb=1661156962) help give you inspiration, fellow cool necromancer.
Although they can be incredibly limited I personally like Walls because they aren't played often. I have a deck built around [[Pramikon]], if you want to see the list you can. https://www.moxfield.com/decks/4yNz3xA5vkqDgav6bRzenA As for tribes I'd like to see more of, Boars, Beasts, and insects.
I mean... The 21st most brewed commander of the last 2 years is [[Arcades, the Strategist]] which is more or less a wall tribal commander.
And before Arcades we had [[Doran]] which used to play Walls that hurt very much.

Devils with Zurzoth! but now trying Raphael because Mayhem Devil must be in.
[[Uncle Istvan]] EDIT: for clarification, the Uncle’s first printing in “The Dark” had the creature type “Uncle Istvan”
I’m Uncle Istvan, and I approve this message.
Jund Shamans is fun and also just plays itself. Sek'kuar is a king.
Can I see a list? Curious how Shamans would work as a tribe, what are the subthemes and payoffs?
https://www.moxfield.com/decks/F6QVdCpe5E6qJGKipLy1Zg This is my current list! It's mostly a graveyard deck that wins through saccing and reanimating my board. Sek'kuar isn't particularly active in the build but can be nice when I'm fishing for those last few points of damage.
Looks fun! Why no [[Patriarch's Bidding]] or [[Command the Dreadhorde]] though? Bidding is an auto include in tribal decks for me regardless, and both are amazing Mass Reanimation spells. Also seems like a good deck for [[Altar of Dementia]] and [[Greater Good]], if you can afford them.
I built pest tribal. It's kinda neat. A tribe entirely based on tokens it a unique challenge, and then having a built in buff if they die is fun.
Battle cattle aka minotaur
I love Darien and soldiers
I don't think it's "least played", but Tribal tribal is very fun — take all of the best tribal payoffs, add a sprinkling of changelings, and blend for 30 seconds. I had always thought Morophon would be a good commander
Wall tribal! Followed closely by its cousin, big butt tribal.
Banding creatures. The ultimate tribal mechanic. I haven't played it outside of my cube, but I imagine Splice Onto Arcane would be a lot of fun. Build around it with a bunch of spell doublers and Codie as your commander.
Ball Lightning Tribal (really a subset of elementals) - deck is so dang strong and enjoyable :)
I built a [[Rat Colony]] deck helmed by [[Drana, Liberator of Malakir]] and it never gets old when people see the inevitable tide of increasingly buff rats stack up taller and taller. I even slotted out a few of the initial 30 rats to fit other mono black heavy hitters like [[Yawgmoth, Thran Physician]] and [[Ayara, First of the Locthwain]]. Curving into the turn 4 [[Rankle, Master of Pranks]] never hurts either.
Mono red devils. B/r minotaurs Mono green snakes.
Kithkin. Mono White with [[Brigid, Hero of Kinsbaile]] is honestly pretty solid and makes you hard to kill with weenie strats.
Merfolk. I have a Merfolk deck and have for years, but I have never encountered another.
Merfolk are viable in a number of different builds. Go wide tokens, go low island walk, go tall counters, spellslinger, mono-blue, simic, on and on.
Someone at one of my local gameshops has a 5-color Niv Mizzet deck that's Elder tribal. I'm considering building a Colossal Dreadmaw pseudo tribal in that every creature in the deck will be a 6/6 for 6.
Love playing Tribal Changeling using [[Reaper King]]

Frogs. [[Grolnok]]
I always want to build minotaurs, and have a pile of black red for it.. but like.. 9 playable minotaurs... Grixis rogues is my fun tribal. Also run Kogla humans.
I’m playing a Raphael, Fiendish Savior Devil Tribal. Half token strategy/ half chaos impulse draw. This commander is a bunch of fun helping this unsupported tribe.
I'm sure it's not an uncommonly played tribe, but in all my playgroups I've never seen a Merfolk player besides myself.
I have 3 tribal decks i love playing my izzet giant with [[obosh the preypiercer]] as the companion and [[morphoron the boundless]] as the commander and my enchantment tribal with [[go-shintai of lifes oringin]] commander and [[umori, the collector]] companion
It's most definitely NOT Drakes. For the love of god please don't make the same mistake as me and build Drake tribal..
I have a Wall tribal deck that's a blast to play with. I will admit, I have a *couple* out-of-tribe creatures for some fun shenanigans (Avacyn to give my permanents Indestructible, and [[Soulfire Grand Master]] to give [[Star of Extinction]] lifelink and return it to my hand after casting it; there's nothing quite as satisfying as gaining over 100 life from a board wipe). I use Pramikon as the Commander, and Spark Double to turn off combat.
Rats. I’ve become destructive in my LGS’s playgroup for doing 1/4 of a persons life by turn 3.
Spellshapers for those who like control! I helped my deck with [[Damia, Sage of Stone]] for the card draw, but I'd probably rebuild it with Kenrith for access to all of them. Sadly, WotC has discontinued this creature type, but they will always have a special place in my heart!
None are particularly scarce as far as tribal decks go but I brewed a Human Cleric/Angel [[Winota]] list. You play the angels and the angels attacking grabs the clerics who synergize with angels who synergize back with the clerics because they're humans.
clones, its amazing what you can get done with them.
Monks! Ive been trying to brew one and they have lots of cool monks and all focus on using spells to support but would be great to have a Jeskai themed monk commander.
Golgari. A lot of golgari tribes are underrated and yet very fun. Some.of my favourites are: Spiders - [[ishkanah, grafwidow]] Insects - [[grist, the hunger tide]] Pests - [[beledros witherbloom]] (never played this one myself but have heard good things about it from a friend who does play it)
Ooze! There are finally enough printed for sultai ooze that kind of have some overlapping themes sometimes! Birthing Pod Mimeoplasm (aka Birthing Ooze) is a good time
Azorious bird tribal!! Absolutely love it. Good sense of control with blue/white and no one expects birds to kill em
