So, this thing seems very good. Normally I wouldn't play a commander that seems this potent, but since temporary red tokens is probably my favorite mechanic ever I need to give it a whirl.
What can you guys and girls here suggest that will work well with Obeka?
Various temporary tokens become permanent:
Various Encores, mostly bad
- Araumi of the Dead Tide
- Amphin Mutineer
- Briarblade Adept
- Coastline Marauders
- Elvish Dreadlord
- Exquisite Huntmaster
- Fathon Fleet Swordjack
- Impulsive Pilferer
- Kitesail Skirmisher
- Phyrexian Triniform
- Rakshasa Debaser
- Trove Tracker
- Blade of Selves
- Banshee of the Dread Choir
- Warchief Giant
- Broodbirth Viper
Myriad
Unearth Effects
Turns
Final Fortune
+2 others but too expensive!

Ball Lightnings "Temporary" Removal Avoiding Drawbacks and Costs
I'm a massive fan of Voidwalk in particular, thats the only 'hidden gem' I could really find. Works as passable temporary removal that becomes playable with the commander, and passable ETB manipulation for the inevitable ETB package that becomes great after a few ciphers. Though I also like Hazoret's Fervor which can finally have a home in EDH! A lot of red token stuff is underappreciated but overall pretty explored territory. Quite sad that the unearth creatures are all so bad, so its mostly Whip and Sedris and Footsteps pulling weight regarding the graveyard. The Myriads and such will be sweet but thats to be expected here!
Keen on any suggestions, especially for any removal or drawbacks that can be gamed or avoided by ending the turn. Avoiding damage from Impatience or Citadel of Pain effects is cool, but there are not enough of them to build around!
Edit: Thanks for all your amazing input, I've taken all your many suggestions on board and built my deck. But it be unfair for me to draw from this wealth of knowledge too often, so next time I'll skip this place and just ask Reddit instead.
