Kratos, Stoic Father
Kratos, Stoic Father & Atreus, Impulsive Son Commander Deck
The deck builds experience counters through attacking and killing Gods, using Kratos, Stoic Father to stack +1/+1 counters onto key creatures while Atreus, Impulsive Son converts those counters into repeated card draw and chip damage. The experience counter accumulation enables an infinite turns lock by loading Sage of Hours with counters, while the deck also wins through near-infinite damage by bouncing Star of Extinction's 20-damage blast off Toralf, God of Fury's excess damage redirect, or by chaining The Locust God with a damage-on-draw enchantment and an enter-the-battlefield damage engine to flood the board with hasty tokens and kill all opponents simultaneously. Supporting this core are extra combat engines, mass card draw spells that refuel the hand for graveyard recursion, and treasure generation to fuel the high mana demands of repeated combo activations.
