[Hidetsugu] Double the Damage, Double the Fun

Commander / EDH Mono-Red

between40and50


Maybeboard


This started out as a way to play burn in EDH, but then after I started playing around with it I realized it was actually mono-red combo. The idea is to set up a board state where I can cast Hidetsugu, give him haste, and tap him for the win. This is accomplished with:

Way too many haste enablers, like Anger, Bloodlust Inciter, Ogre Battledriver, Thousand-Year Elixir, etc.

Damage doublers - Insult / Injury, Furnace of Rath, Dictate of the Twin Gods, Angrath's Marauders and more.

Pingers and burn spells to tinker with life totals. Since Hidetsugu rounds down, doubling his damage means anyone with an odd amount of life will survive his wrath. I generally try to make it so that only applies to me, but sometimes it doesn't matter if I've got a good way to get that last damage in. Plus, if the game goes long, the burn spells can be an emergency win con as some of them scale quite well and can do a lot of damage.

Damage prevention/redirection in case I can't tinker with my own life total, or I'm afraid someone else will be able to at instant speed. Cards like Dark Sphere, Glacial Chasm, and General's Regalia let me tap in peace without having to worry about any shenanigans.

Plus some other goodies. I'm always looking for opinions, upgrades, and suggestions, so let me know what you think!
