Isshin, Two Heavens as One Commander Deck

by massmtg100 cards

Isshin, Two Heavens as One makes every attack trigger fire an extra time. The deck stacks creatures and permanents that do something when they or any creature attack: make tapped-and-attacking tokens, drain opponents, draw cards, make Treasure or grow. Each combat then snowballs into a wide board and large life loss. Windcrag Siege backs Isshin up with the same doubling effect, and token doublers, extra combat phases and haste push the advantage further. How it wins: It swings wide each turn with doubled attack triggers, flooding the board with attacking tokens while per-attacker drain and damage effects, anthems and extra combats finish opponents off. Key roles: - Doubled attack triggers: Isshin and its backup copy of the effect turn every "whenever attacks" or "whenever you attack" ability into two, which is what the rest of the deck is built to exploit. (Windcrag Siege, Helm of the Host, Blade of Selves) - Attacking token generators: These cards create tokens that enter tapped and attacking whenever combat begins. Doubled triggers and the token doubler multiply the board, and the new attackers feed count-based payoffs. (Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon, Elspeth, Storm Slayer) - Per-attacker drain and burn: These punish opponents for each attacking creature or each attack, often doubled, so a wide swing is lethal even through blockers. (Mishra, Claimed by Gix, Brutal Hordechief, Ingris Stingerquill) - Extra combats and haste: Additional combat phases re-fire every attack trigger, and haste enablers let freshly made tokens and copies swing immediately. (Aurelia, the Warleader, Karlach, Fury of Avernus, Samut, Hazoret's Champion) - Attack-fueled card and mana advantage: Attackers that draw cards, dig through exile or make Treasure turn each combat into resources. Token payoffs that draw when tokens enter or leave keep the hand full. (Zurgo Stormrender, Aurelia, the Law Above, Goldspan Dragon) - Combat protection and pump: Team-wide indestructibility, damage prevention, double strike and attack pumps keep the wide board alive and lethal, while spell-lock effects stop answers during the turn. (Akroma's Will, Iroas, God of Victory, Fervent Charge)
