    The One Ring is an interesting card. Outside of the most aggressive mono-red decks, it's hard to imagine any situation where I'd be disappointed to draw it. At worst, it fogs for a turn and draws 3 cards for one life.

      Palantir of Orthanc is pretty good too... Scry 2 + draw very turn for free - but the opponent has the option of risking taking damage but denying the draw -- but the risk keeps getting higher so it will become a draw engine. Now quite as strong as the one ring - but does not cause life loss (but can cause self mill - but in lot of black green decks that's an upside - yes?)

    Going spider tribal with shelob works because you basically create a wall of attack and I get tokens of your cards to play against you. Even a little 1/1 will kill and copy their biggest baddest creature. They won't attack you as long as they can't remove shelob. Then you add in a bunch of fight spells and pick which of their creatures you want tokens of while swinging with shelob. Add roaming throne and other token doubters and your making multiple copies of each of those tokens

    While I agree that building Shelob and just adding every spider on arena isn’t the best idea, Shelob and no spiders means you might as well be playing yargle and multani or another generic GB commander, but I have found that Shelob with ramp and equipment that give hexproof can make spiders that the opponent cant attack around really good youd be suprised how many decks are stopped by death touch reachers, add removal and bite effects and it I think it can work. So that’s how I built Shelob for spider tribal. Love Cgb just my idea for the commander especially as I think his deck would be a lot better if yargle and multani was the commander to really abuse that high power

    HB has more creative leeway for creators than standard, but it still means most tribal decks get absolutely destroyed and viewers wouldn't really enjoy watching that, so it makes sense to build decks with mostly similar shells that work. Kind of a shame if you do, shame if you don't situation. Still, i appreciate your efforts CGB! Thanks for all the HB love!
