Deck & Commander Strategies
Inspirit, Flagship Vessel
An artifact-focused deck that uses charge counters to grow its flagship into a formidable flying threat while protecting other artifacts with hexproof and indestructibility. It leverages historic spells and artifact synergy to generate value and board control.
Szarel, Genesis Shepherd
A Jund land sacrifice deck that uses landfall and sacrifice triggers to control the board and drain opponents’ life totals. It focuses on land ramp and incremental damage through sacrificing lands while maintaining board presence.
Hearthhull, the Worldseed
Utilizes land recursion and sacrifice mechanics to repeatedly trigger life gain and damage effects on opponents. The deck aims to out-value opponents by reusing lands to fuel abilities and controlling the pace with incremental life swings.
Kilo, Apogee Mind
A proliferate-based deck that accelerates and multiplies counters on artifacts and creatures. It features mana rocks and artifact creatures that grow as counters increase, aiming to overwhelm opponents with large, enhanced threats.
