My attempt at an Oathbreaker deck led by Angrath, the Flame-Chained. I had always loved Angrath since I first saw him in Ixalan, but could never fit him into one of my commander decks.

Strategies

The deck once had two main strategies: take it and break it, and discard. Discard is an easy fit for Angrath, because his first ability does it and his ultimate kills your opponents for doing it. Angrath's ultimate and incidental discard punishment is the deck's main win condition. Take it and break it was the secondary strategy of the deck. It involved using treason affects to take your opponents permanents, use them, then destroy them. After playtesting I concurred that the deck was stretching itself too thin, and decided to focus on discard.

I switched away from my original signature spell Hijack when I cut the stealing strategy from the deck. I decided to go with Pact of the Titan instead. This exists only to be able to drop a big blocker down for free after casting Angrath. It's hard to commit creatures to an attack when you know they might run face-first into a fresh 4/4.
