Tired of the slow, posturing behavior that is common in commander? This is a fun to pilot deck that tries to dissuade opponents from hiding behind their defenses in favor of all out warfare.

Host to a hidden commander: Xantcha, Sleeper Agent, this deck preys on chaos. I wanted to build a list that would promote action at the table, with the ability to end games quickly. Queen Marchesa's synergy is less obvious at first. Instead of holding onto the monarch mechanic we can benefit greatly from our opponents drawing cards. Passing the throne off to another rival will put a lucrative target over their head, and hopefully distract players from our own schemes.

Two primary win conditions of the deck:

1) Dealing chip damage off of draw and discard effects (ex. Kederekt Parasite, Want Not), which can be ramped up drastically by wheeling all players at the table (ex. Wheel of fate, Dark Deal)

2) Re directing damage based board wipes to a sole player's face (ex. Brash Taunter & Star of Extinction)

I previously mention ending games quickly. Once an opponent has reached a critical mass of scary beasties, often the only effective answer is player removal. With the card Peer into the Abyss, in combination with any damage on draw effect, we can efficiently drop that player from the game.
