When I first started to play Magic the Gathering, there were no formats or limitations on how to construct your decks. There were a couple of interesting ideas on playstyles and deck constructions techniques back in the days of magazines such as Scrye and InQuest Gamer. My favorite was a chess themed deck build where there were strict limitations on how to build your decks and how each card/piece could be used. I wish I could find the rules for that online, but every time I try a search, I keep getting Commander decklists with chess themes.
I recently arrived at the fact that my playgroup typically now plays more Commander format than just normal Magic the Gathering. With that in mind, I decided to take my 60 card Angels deck as the beginnings of a full fledged Commander deck.
I obviously had to remove all the duplicated cards and the Mox Pearl, and I also removed the unnecessary lands; Karoo and Ancient Den. I think I only added those lands to the original deck for some extra flavor. I don't remember if they ever got played then I used the 60 card deck, but as I take a look at them now, I don't see any reason for them in there at all.
One of my next deck ideas will be to create a Demon version to be the dark opposite of this deck. I will make sure to post the decklist when it's complete.
