Say no to politics--Melee Swarm

Commander / EDH* RW (Boros) Tokens

Dom171


Sideboard

Sorcery (1)


This deck is so much fun to play. Due to the nature of melee, it takes away the politics of choosing who to attack. Always attack everyone!

The idea is to get enough tokens or cheap melee creatures out (melee stacks) to be able to attack all opponents at once. And THEN play Adriana, Captain of the Guard. As soon as she's out, she will be targeted. So make sure that you can attack with plenty of creatures the turn you play her.

The deck performs better the more opponents that you have. So, it's perfect for those times that you end up in a 5 player pod.

It does well in normal 4 player action, but struggles in 3 player. However, in a normal game, by the time a player or 2 are eliminated, you should have a strong enough board and the remaining opponents' life totals should be low enough that you can finish them off. Also, the deck can usually take out all of your opponents at once.
