Doubling the Chaos! Chaotic Commander ft @UrCastPod MTG EDH Gameplay

Deck & Commander Strategies

• 

  Meren of Clan Nel Toth

  Sacrifice creatures to gain experience counters and repeatedly bring creatures back from the graveyard to the battlefield, creating continuous value and board presence.

• 

  Liliana, Heretical Healer // Liliana, Defiant Necromancer

  Leverage Liliana tribal synergies with sacrifice and zombie token generation to drain opponents’ life and control the board through incremental aristocrat style damage.

• 

  Gandalf the White

  Utilize flash and the ability to double legendary permanent enter/leave-the-battlefield triggers to generate explosive value plays and combos with legendary creatures and artifacts.

• 

  Gahiji, Honored One

  Encourage players to attack each other by boosting creatures attacking opponents other than Gahiji’s controller, combining political maneuvering and combat-focused damage bursts.

Gameplay Insights

• 1

  Emberwilde Captain’s Monarch ability added a political layer by taxing opponents who attacked the monarch, influencing combat decisions.

• 2

  Gandalf’s flash and doubling ETB triggers allowed for highly efficient and punishing plays that could swing the board state dramatically.

• 3

  Meren’s early use of Demonic Tutor hinted at a focused plan to assemble key combo or recursion pieces quickly.

• 4

  The inclusion of Black Market synergized strongly with sacrifice strategies by generating large amounts of mana from creature deaths, accelerating game plans.

• 5

  Players were cautious with attacking early on, likely due to the political implications of Gahiji’s ability and Emberwilde Captain’s Monarch damage trigger.
