Jodah, Archmage Eternal. Commander deck(Beta 2.1) list

I’ve recently started playing “Commander” which is a format in Magic the Gathering If you didn’t know that already.. I don’t create decks often and I usually just build them with what cards I have. This deck, on the other hand, have been modified with purchased additions such as cards from boosters or singles. I have reason to believe that this deck has potential. Even tho it can’t beat my friends control deck of solutions <-- it’s not actually called that. While my deck is a Midrange deck hoping to be able to set up a board state. This makes it really annoying to play against him . These issues, have I tried to resolve by updating the deck.

Version history:

Deck synopsis:
Build a wall of massive creatures and let your enemies tremble with fear. With Jodah as your commander, you can cheat the mana cost of your more expensive spells, being able to cast them as early as turn five. There’s no excuse for not being able to deal with the opponent’s puny creatures now! Take home the victory with beasts like “Borborygmos”, “Thorn Elemental” or placing direct hits with evading creatures such as “Steel Leaf Champion” or “Elegant Edgecrafters”. If things get too intense just wipe the board with powerful board wiping spells.
