Zada, Opponents Grinder

Commander / EDH Mono-Red

lukusaba


This is a very resilient and strong deck. With a handful of win cons, Zada provides the player with a lot of card draw (a weak point for the majority of mono-red decks), pump spells and hasty wins.

Let's talk about some of these win conditions:

  • Combat: This is the main goal of the deck. Create a bunch of creatures and pump them all abusing Zada's triggered ability. Most of them give the creature trample, so it is the main form of "evasion".

  • Non-combat Damage: With Soul's Fire and Gravitic Punch, we can finish our opponents off without even attacking. If they have problematic blockers or some combat shennanigans, we can use one of this spells to decimate them.

  • Combo: With Dual-caster Mage and Twinflame or Heat Shimmer, we can create infinite hasty Dual-casters to close out the game. Simply target Zada or one of your creatures with one of these two spells, while holding priority flash in the dual-caster mage to copy the spell. The copy will now target the mage and when the mage token enters it will target the original spell. Continue in this loop and proceed to the combat phase.

That is all for the description. I hope you all enjoy the deck tech!
