Thantis, the Warweaver

Thantis, the Warweaver Commander Deck

Thantis, the Warweaver forces every creature on the battlefield to attack each combat, then punishes opponents for swinging at you through a dense web of damage-redirection and punisher effects — creatures and enchantments that deal damage back to attackers or their controllers whenever they are dealt damage — turning the mandatory chaos into a political engine that bleeds the table out. The deck accelerates Thantis's growth by goading opponents into attacking each other while pillowfort pieces discourage attacks from being aimed your way, and it generates card advantage by flooding the board with tokens through "Hunted" creatures and similar effects that give opponents fodder they're then forced to throw into combat. The primary win conditions are explosive mass-damage spells combined with Repercussion to redirect lethal damage to every player simultaneously, with a deterministic loop available through Repercussion, Brash Taunter, and Pariah's Shield dealing infinite damage to a single opponent.
