This Commander 2014 reboot is focusing on Nahiri's Soldier potential. Trying to limit creatures to those with a human, soldier or warrior creature type (there is 1 exception: Halvar, God of Battle. There is also Spirit en-Dal but it is not meant to be played, just there to give creatures who need to attack evasion from its Forecast ability) or 'soldier' in the text box. All suggestions welcome!

Early Game

Play those cheap soldiers! We will need blockers and we also will need fairly early removal as my meta has a lot of fliers and tramplers. You want to try and have some removal or protection (equipment or something like Ghostly Prison) in your opening hand. Or some draw spells so you're likely to draw into it like Smuggler's Share or Skullclamp.

Don't play Nahiri, the Lithomancer until you have ways of dealing with threats - in my meta this is again fliers and tramplers but also direct removal.

Mid Game

Soldiers for every occasion!

• Captain of the Watch, Evangel of Heliod, Reverent Hoplite, Lena, Selfless Champion - Soliders on ETB
• Elspeth, Storm Slayer, Elspeth, Sun's Champion - Soldiers by increasing loyalty counters
• Call the Coppercoats, Deploy to the Front - Soliders from instants and sorceries
• Darien, King of Kjeldor - Soldiers when we receive damage
• Myrel, Shield of Argive - Soliders when we attack

We are vulnerable to fliers so there are several ways to deal with them:

• Thunderhawk Gunship allows us to crew easily to make everyone a flier
• Maze of Ith and Kor Haven will help stop many threats
• Phyrexian Splicer is a funny card - remove flying from an opponent's creature and give it to one of ours allowing us to basically stop two of their fliers if we have enough blockers.
• Knight-Captain of Eos allows us to sac a cheap soldier token to prevent all combat damage

We are also vulnerable to board wipes so there are:

• Dawn's Truce
• Flare of Fortitude
• Teferi's ProtectionGC

Endame / Wincons

• Devout Invocation can take our army of soldiers and make an army of angels. They do need to last until our next turn unless we have Emergence Zone available and can cast Devout Invocation during our opponent's end step.

• Dollmaker's Shop / Porcelain Gallery can pump all our 1/1s to something massive. With any evasion (flying, trample, etc), we can a) overrun any defenses or b) (if not enough evasion) crush our opponents' creatures one turn and then swing for the win on the next.

• Odric, Lunarch Marshal can give all our creatures multiple advantages depending what is on the board:

  • Deathtouch: Nazgul Battle-Mace
  • Double Strike: Halvar, God of Battle
  • First strike: Kaldra Compleat, Phyrexian Splicer, Greymond, Avacyn's Stalwart
  • Flying: Celestine, the Living Saint, Firemane Commando, Nautiloid Ship, Phyrexian Splicer
  • Haste: Kaldra Compleat
  • Indestructible: Kaldra Compleat
  • Lifelink: Batterskull, Caduceus, Staff of Hermes, Celestine, the Living Saint, Greymond, Avacyn's Stalwart
  • Menace: Nazgul Battle-Mace
  • Trample: Kaldra Compleat, Phyrexian Splicer
  • Vigilance: Batterskull, Captain of the Watch, Greymond, Avacyn's Stalwart
