Deck & Commander Strategies
Morophon, the Boundless
This hidden elfball deck aims to make infinite mana with Dockside Extortionist and leverage Morophon's cost reduction ability to win.
Cecily, Haunted Mage // Sophina, Spearsage Deserter
Fast combo deck that gains access to an infinite turns combo with Time Sieve. Aims for a fast win but can rely on both commanders to gain value in prolonged games.
Kraum, Ludevic's Opus // Tymna the Weaver
Focuses on quickly assembling win conditions with one card enablers like Ad Nauseam or Intuition. Puts a heavy emphasis on Ad Nauseam, Underworld Breach, and Dockside Extortionist flickers.
Slicer, Hired Muscle // Slicer, High-Speed Antagonist
A mono-red voltron stax list that aims to get an early Slicer on board and slow down opponents with stax pieces while gaining advantage with an equipment package.
