I HATE YOUR DECK #1 The Ur Dragon vs Brago vs Akiri vs Tuvasa || Commander Gameplay MTG

Deck Strategies

• 

  The Ur-Dragon

  Ramp aggressively to cast large dragons and use their attack triggers to draw cards and flood the board with permanents, overwhelming opponents with tribal synergy.

• 

  Tuvasa the Sunlit

  Leverage enchantment synergies to draw cards and generate incremental advantage while controlling the game state and stabilizing through life gain and tokens.

• 

  Akiri, Fearless Voyager

  Build a voltron-style deck focused on equipping Akiri with powerful equipment to quickly deal lethal commander damage, though vulnerable to taxing effects on activated abilities.

• 

  Brago, King Eternal

  Use flicker effects to reuse enter-the-battlefield value and control the board while taxing opponents’ spells and abilities to slow down their game plan.

Gameplay Insights

  Suppression Field severely hindered Akiri's equipment strategy by taxing activated abilities, forcing her to pay extra costs and stalling her early game aggression.

  Brago’s use of taxing effects like Grand Arbiter combined with flicker control elements created a disruptive environment that slowed down opponents and prevented explosive plays.

  The Ur-Dragon player prioritized ramp and card draw through dragon attacks, aiming to build a critical mass of dragons on the board to overwhelm opponents.

• 4

  Tuvasa’s enchantment synergy deck focused on steady card draw and board presence while leveraging the monarch mechanic to generate flying tokens and gain incremental advantage.
