We "Gift" Each Other Troll Decks! | Commander Clash S15 E29

Deck Strategies

• 

  Blim, Comedic Genius

  The deck was designed to give disadvantageous cards to opponents, utilizing Blim's ability to transfer control of permanents upon dealing combat damage. The goal was to disrupt opponents' strategies while causing them to lose life.

• 

  Captain N'ghathrod

  This deck was focused on theft and disruption, aiming to steal valuable cards from opponents' decks. However, the troll element involved only having two pieces of a three-piece combo, leaving the player unable to assemble it.

• 

  Nissa, Vastwood Seer // Nissa, Sage Animist

  This mono-green deck was all about ramping, with a large number of basic lands and land-ramping spells. The troll aspect was the unusual amount of basic lands, which limited the deck's versatility.

• 

  Archelos, Lagoon Mystic

  This deck was built around high toughness creatures, aiming to deal damage based on their toughness. The troll element was the lack of direct support for turtles, the deck's main theme.
