This build is focused on winning with Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and this build mirrors the blood pod version to some extent. The big differec is Flash hulk and cards like Mana Drain . But also that the pilot is Najeela, the Blade-Blossom . With this warrior we have some plan B combos that we can go for as back ups.

This deck is played like a flicker jack boxer (HITMAN STYLE if you know what that is). You use Najeela, the Blade-Blossom as an annoying object that snowballs. The aim is to force your opponents to deal with her and then coming in with "A RIGHT HOOK" and killem em with Flash + Protean Hulk into the Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker combo package. The best part is that we can win during an opponents turn in respons to there attempt to win. With Phantasmal Image + Purphoros, God of the Forge we can win from ETB triggers (this will be explained during Kiki hulk lines section).

but you want your commander Najeela, the Blade-Blossom to be as much of a problem as possible with minimal resources spent on her. The amount of resources we will spend on her is one mana dork and three mana. Mulligan every hand that won't give you a turn 3 warrior attacking with Najeela, the Blade-Blossom in play.

The main combo path is Flash togheter with Protean Hulk . That will put Karmic Guide and Viscera Seer in play. Karmic Guide brings back Protean Hulk and Viscera Seer can sac it giving you another trigger. You now find Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker . You aktivate Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and target your Karmic Guide but keep priority. In respons you sac it with Viscera Seer . Then the Karmic Guide tooken enters the battelfild and now Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker is in the grave. Repet, and you have infinit flying 2/2 spirits.

Now if we include Phantasmal Image + Purphoros, God of the Forge (6 CMC togheter) we can win in instant speed during an opponents turn. Phantasmal Image can come into play as Karmic Guide and after that you can fetch Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and kill everyone with Purphoros, God of the Forge ETB triggers.

I like this because winning during an opponent's turn makes this combo line just so much stronger. Try and go for it when some one else is trying to win. If someone cast, lets say Doomsday and everyone is trying and stop it. Respond with this combo and win while the Doomsday hangs around on the stack.

Also, I don't think I need to describe Purphoros, God of the Forge + Najeela, the Blade-Blossom for you!

Second one is Birthing Pod . You need to sac any creature with converted mana cost of 3, like Najeela, the Blade-Blossom . Then you find Felidar Guardian and that cat will untap Birthing Pod . Now sac the cat and find Karmic Guide . the spirit brings Felidar Guardian back and that will once more untap Birthing Pod . Now sac the cat once more and find Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker . make a copy of Karmic Guide to return Felidar Guardian to play. card:fielder guardian now untaps Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker , and we know where that leads to.
With the card Survival of the Fittest you can set everything up, making Survival of the Fittest another one card combo. First, activate the enchantment by discarding any creature. Now find Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and discard it to the enchantment to find Felidar Guardian . Activate Survival of the Fittest a third time and discard Felidar Guardian to find Karmic Guide . Now both Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Felidar Guardian is in your graveyard and Karmic Guide is in your hand. Cast the spirit and win.

Najeela, the Blade-Blossom might be the only viable competitive commander that have a kill clock on your opponents. She is defiantly the strongest commander in tearms of beats. Her kill potential and damage output is growing exponatily and gets out of hand really fast, because of that her tokens will generat other tokens. This calculation is coming from only Najeela as a none token warrior and no enemy blockers.

Attack 1: Generat 1 Token, you now have 1 token and you deal 4 Damage: 4 damage dealt total

Attack 2: Generat 2 tokens, you now have 3 Tokens and you deal 6 Damage: 10 damage dealt total

Attack 3: Generat 4 Tokens, You now have 7 Tokens and you deal 10 Damage: 20 damage dealt total

Attack 4: Generat 8 Tokens, you now have 15 tokens and you deal 18 Damage: 38 damage dealt total (one player should be dead)

Attack 5: Generat 16 Tokens, you now have 31 Tokens and you deal 34 Damage: 72 damage dealt total

Attack 6: Generat 35 Tokens, you now have 69 Tokens and you deal 72 Damage: 144 damage dealt total

In other words Najeela is close to a six turn clock, make it seven because your opponents should have blockers. But then say six once more because you don't need to do 144 damage. Also your opponents will also hurt themselves and each other. So in the end a 5-7 turn clock ish.

So if she comes into play Turn 2, you win the game with only her turn 8. But each time you activate her ability you kick the clock one turn ahead. This is also why it is so important with a really low CMC curve. If you have 7 mana you can activate your commanders ability and still cast interaction that cost 2 mana; for example Negate or Abrupt Decay .

We have a PLAN B, Najeela, the Blade-Blossom going for infinit combat steps: We have cards in this deck that is one card combos with this commander.

Sword of Feast and Famine - Derevi, Empyrial Tactician - Phyrexian Altar - Nature's Will - Druids' Repository

I play a lot of cEDH and have one of those "gotta catch em all commanders", a bucket list to play all commanders. But Najeela is by fare my favorit one. I have a bunch of different Blade-blossom decks and down here you can find links to all of them.
