---

This deck all started with Gaea's Might and Might of Alara, which made me want to build a 5 color aggressive deck. I chose to go with Sisay, Weatherlight Captain because Najeela is a little bit too obvious, and she screams "infinite attack steps combo". That's why this deck's theme is "(almost) all permanents are legendary". The mana might seem a little rough at first glance, but if you're careful about how and when you fetch you shouldn't have too many problems. Also, this deck mulligans fairly well.

Noteworthy interactions:

• Drana, Liberator of Malakir and Tajic, Legion's Edge make each other (and all your other attacking creatures) grow forever.
• Loyal Retainers + Saffi Eriksdotter is a combo that gives you infinite ETB and death triggers. I chose not to abuse it too much, but it can sometimes happen to kill everyone with Judith, the Scourge Diva. If you want another card that works with it (and is in theme), Daxos, Blessed by the Sun gives you infinite life.
• Kunoros, Hound of Athreos is a nonbo with a few cards like the aformentioned combo, or Alesha, Who Smiles at Death and Kethis, the Hidden Hand, but it stops many a degenerate deck and it's also just a 3/3 with vigilance, menace, and lifelink for 3.

Potential Includes

• Traxos, Scourge of Kroog: a big beater that should untap almost every turn. I did not include it because it's 4 mana, and colorless.
• Weatherlight: another big beater that shouldn't have problems coming to life. The triggered ability is basically guaranteed to hit. Still, 4 mana and colorless made me pass on it.
• Hero's Blade: probably better than Sword of the Chosen, but it's not legendary.
• Heroes' Podium: powerful, but expensive, and probably a bit winmore. I'd play Weatherlight before I play this one.
• Zirda, the Dawnwaker and Lurrus of the Dream-Den (not as companions): decent bodies, easy to cast. Can probably turn the deck into something more synergy based.
• Raff Capashen, Ship's Mage: giving your permanents flash is interesting, and a 3/3 flying body with flash is nothing to scoff at.
• Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain: drawing cards is cool and good, and her power and toughness are decent, though her lack of a keyword makes her inclusion harder to justify in a purely aggro deck. If you want to go into a more synergistic approach, you should definitely consider adding her.
• Reki, the History of Kamigawa: Basically same thing as Jhoira, except a bit cheaper and way worse stats.
• Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle: haha infinite combo go brrrrr
