Rafiq is hands down one of my favorite commanders. His ability to get through most players for commander damage is unmatched in my opinion, but only if you build around him. This deck I spent a lot of time sifting through cards and researching the best possible options to ensure kills as early as turn 3-4, while also maintaining longevity in the mid to late game. The mana curve of the deck benefits on us casting low cost creatures and enchantments to essentially buff/protect Rafiq. I'll list a few of the combos in the deck, but feed back is also appreciated as I'd love to get some positive criticism on improving the deck. Thanks again for taking the time to check out my deck.
