Building around Hazoret's Favor
Commander Deck Help forum
Posted on May 3, 2023, 9:25 a.m. by NTakamura
I want to build a deck around Hazoret's Favor. I havenot picked a commander or colors to stick with. The idea is to buff a creature and have them be sacrificed or destroyed at the end step. Some cards that are kind of what I am going for are Tears of Rage, Blood Frenzy, Mogg Cannon, Puffer Extract and Junkyo Bell
So I was wondering if there are more cards like the ones listed above in any color.
First card I thought of was Fatal Frenzy. Unless the sacrifice rider is critical, there's also Hatred, Howl from Beyond, and double strike effects.

FormOverFunction I really like all the suggestions you provided. Betrothed of Fire can be nice if I don't have any of those other sacrifice outlet or if I need a quick buff to the team.
legendofa Fatal Frenzy looks like a great card and fits perfectly. Not sure of the other ones yet. Will have to see how the list shapes out.

Sounds like you're looking for aristocrats. You can find aristocrats commanders here. Garna, Bloodfist of Keld looks fun, I use Marchesa, the Black Rose recursion is very strong in aristocrats.

Ooh, Anax, Hardened in the Forge has a non-token death trigger as well. You might find some killer stuff if you run some searches on Scryfall or whatever for pieces of the card text from these cards...

Mr. Orfeo, the Boulder might be a fitting commander both colour-wise and ability-wise. Another possibilityis Greven, Predator Captain.
You should definitely consider Key to the City. It just does a lot.

seshiro_of_the_orochi to be honest didn't even consider him until you mentioned Mr. Orfeo, the Boulder since it pumps the whole team. Thanks for the suggestion.

Henzie "Toolbox" Torre seems made for that, or maybe Purphoros, Bronze-Blooded if you want to keep it mono red.

It feels like I mention the same cards in given stretches of time, so I apologize for my repetitive nature here, but if you’re going the combat route in red Five-Alarm Fire is a TON of fun, keeping everyone at the table’s eyes focused on the growing fire lol (note: it’s combat damage, not combat damage to a player, similar to Restore the Peace).

FormOverFunction: I've never seen Five-Alarm Fire before. That's awesome!
While we're at great card for aggressive decks, Druids' Repository is a house.

Goblin Kites can bump your attackers into the air, as it looks like you won’t be adding to their toughness. Betrothed of Fire is one of my favorite sacrifice enchantments in red, though I’m not sure if it will fit in here. Black can give you a fair number of cracks at a creature with spells like Fake Your Own Death, some of which even buff the creatures power. Nightmare Shepherd could also give you another round of attacks for each creature. Now that I think about it, the degenerating zombies from that recent set might be a good option too, since they weren’t long for this world anyways. That would put Ghoulish Procession towards the top of my list too... lots to think about!
