Commander Clash S20 E24 Pits Zombies, Vampires, Demons and Spirits

The Halloween episode of Magic: The Gathering's Commander Clash Season 20 Episode 24 is a creature-type brawl: four decks, each 100% built around one creature type, which makes it a handy template for anyone building a tribal Commander deck.
The four types are Zombies, Vampires, Demons and Spirits. The decks are credited to Crim, Morgan, Tomer and Phil, one deck each.
Commander Clash S20 E24 Deck-Building Rule
The constraint is stricter than "play a tribe". Every nonland card in a deck has to refer to that deck's creature type.
- Zombies
- Vampires
- Demons
- Spirits
That leaves little room for generic staples, so each list has to find its power inside its own type.
TCGKing's take: a rule that bans off-theme goodstuff makes this a better test of what each tribe can do alone than a standard pod, and a more useful reference if you want to brew a tribal deck yourself.
Commander Clash House Ban List
The show applies house bans on top of the official Commander ban list. They do not apply during cEDH weeks.
The fast mana cards on the list are:
- Sol Ring
- Mana Vault
- Gaea's Cradle
- Ancient Tomb
The other house bans are Smothering Tithe, Rhystic Study, Trouble in Pairs, Field of the Dead, Glacial Chasm, The One Ring, and Teferi's Protection.
If you copy the show's pod rules at your own table, note that Sol Ring is on the list, which many groups would find a hard sell.
What is still unknown
- The decklists and which player pilots which creature type
