Deck & Commander Strategies
Magus Lucea Kane
This deck is described as 'big and dumb', hinting at a strategy that relies on high-cost, high-impact spells for game control.
Kroxa and Kunoros
Ethan's Mardu reanimator strategy aims to fill the graveyard with large creatures and then reanimate them. The commanders provide a backup plan for retrieving creatures from the graveyard.
Koma, World-Eater
Cameron's deck revolves around ramping into the uncounterable Koma, which is difficult to deal with and generates value with coils on combat damage. The deck contains various haste enablers to speed up this process.
Orvar, the All-Form
This deck uses cantrips to target its own permanents and copy them, thereby out-valuing opponents. The deck aims to generate a significant board presence through repeated copying of creatures.
