Total War
Enchantment
Whenever a player attacks with one or more creatures, destroy all untapped non-Wall creatures that player controls that didn't attack, except for creatures the player hasn't controlled continuously since the beginning of the turn.

Spectacular Showdown. Here is the best card in your deck. keep in mind the doublestrike will also cause Firkraag's second ability to trigger twice per hit your opponents get on each other. Avatar of Slaughter, Total War, and Disrupt Decorum are probably the other best ones for killing everything.
Each of these are also good considerations depending on how you build. Agitator Ant | Baeloth Barrityl, Entertainer | Chaos Dragon | Goblin Spymaster | Sly Instigator | Goblin Diplomats | Grand Melee | Master Warcraft | Total War | War's Toll |
Swebb87 on total war and Augusta, dean …

Total War states when a player declares attack, destroy all non-wall untapped creatures (that have been in play since the start of your turn) that didn't attack. Can I resolve Augusta, Dean of Order Flip ability first and on attack tap all my creatures whether they are attacking or not to stop them being destroyed? Also by the same logic could I untap all my attacking creatures using Augusta, Dean of Order Flip but Total War wouldn't destroy them as it would see they had attacked?

If you're interested in some forced combat shenanigans, I'd recommend checking out:
- Keldon Twilight
- Angel's Trumpet
- Total War
- War's Toll
- Grand Melee
- Death Kiss - Could be especially silly with Isshin

In case you want some more forced combat effects, these were all stuff I was considering for my Isshin deck very early on:
Or if you want a few more Curse effects:

@freezerboy: Actually I had the Shiny Impetus in in here before but eventually cutting it alongside Vow of Malice to reduce the cards that set me up for 2:1 downtrades. Total War seems sweet, especially combined with Caverns of Despair. I'll have to check the rules on that interaction though. Thanks a lot for the input!

Thank you for the suggestions Rolska, these are all pretty solid. Also, thank you for reading through my primer lol.
I should list Eldrazi Conscription in the upgrades section. Definitely very powerful, & Ulamog's Crusher isn't the worst of the bunch. A dude in my playgroup plays a couple of the Titans in his Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy deck, but he can get them out stupidly early.
Hoarding Ogre also seems like it has a lot of potential. Admittedly, I slept on the D20 & Dungeon Venturing mechanics until I started play-testing them with Isshin. I'm very excited for Delina, Wild Mage in particular.
I replaced Audacious Thief with Nadaar, Selfless Paladin earlier today. I like the potential value upside from the Dungeon Venturing, & his Anthem.
I currently run Conspiracy Theorist in my Alesha deck. Some times it feels good, sometimes it feels clunky. I've also considered Cheering Fanatic for some 2cmc "ramp"/value.
You're the second person to recommend the Kiki-Jiki fable to me lol. I need to update the maybe list. I like the Looting upside on it for sure.
As for Keldon Twilight and Total War, I like both suggestions, but have a trickier time play testing those effects in just solo testing. I'll definitely keep them in my back pocket as I start to play some games with this deck in the next month or so. I want to give Thorough Investigation a chance, but am eyeing that as a potential swap-out slot

I know you said that you're not a fan of Eldrazi - which is fair enough. The only one I really like is Ulamog's Crusher because it just seems strong but not ridiculous like most bigger Eldrazi are. That being said, Eldrazi Conscription I think is worth a look at. Having someone like Iroas, God of Victory become a 17/14 with Trample and Annihilator 2 (Annihilator 4 with Isshin, Two Heavens as One ) is pretty fun.
Still basically an Eldrazi though. So that aside, below are a few cards I'm interested in that you've not mentioned yet, though you've mentioned most of what I found as well.
Hoarding Ogre - 2x Treasure is great for early pressure and mana fixing in a three color deck. With Isshin, Two Triggers as One you'll be getting 2x-6x Treasure per attack (averaging about 4). Absolutely fantastic with Isshin, alright on its own. Monetarily cheap as well.
Conspiracy Theorist is much like Audacious Thief but instead of life.
Keldon Twilight and Total War are really on-theme for a take on the curse/politics route one can take Isshin.
Fable of the Mirror-Breaker Flip // Reflection of Kiki-Jiki Flip works much the same as Hoarding Ogre, almost a free Thrill of Possibility, and create a token before the Combat Phase even begins allowing for additional "When Attacking" triggers.

I feel like Total War could find a place in the deck with the attacking stifling going on and goading. I've also beeing thinking of running a Shiny Impetus in my Xantcha deck as well.
