Hey Deck Builders,

I am here with my First Commander, Daxos the Returned. This being my first venture into Commander I am putting this list forward to you for criticism and improvement. I will move right into what the deck's strategy goal is and what I am using to implement that strategy.

Getting to the deck's strategy, the goal is to survive to the end of the pod and overwhelm the foe with Daxos' legion of Returned. In the beginning stages, one will be looking for one of 10 different walls in the form of enchantments to stop the opponent from antagonizing you by threatening them with loss of resource or tempo. Daxos is a slow commander and must be afforded the time to build his legion. Cast Daxos on turn 3, and keep him out until he has either 4 or 5 experience counters. After that, if he gets blown away, leave him in the command zone until you near the end of the game. In the Midgame, you will be looking to survive by reinforcing your fortress with board wipes, field exiles, and creature stuns, all of which put counters Daxos and fuel your late game board state. At the End, put up anthems like Crusade, Spear of Heliod, and Intangible Virtue to buff your giant tokens and swing into opponents for the win.
