This deck started as a 'package' within a Jeskai Zedru deck. But I loved the idea of just running a lot of damage doublers and reflection effects and just kinda exploding.

Gisela, Blade of Goldnight had to be the commander of course. While the deck can be aggressive, often it just does incremental damage over time, often only ending the game IF it can land 2 damage doublers AND has a board of tokens. There's a decent share of life gain in there because I periodically do damage to myself.

The general theme and goals of the deck led to some really awkward card choices. The strange bit, the cards I did end up on may just be the best options I have and while keeping the overall vision.
