Sauron, Discard Version
Sauron, the Dark Lord Commander Deck
Sauron, the Dark Lord sits at the center of a storm-hand-refill engine: every spell opponents cast grows an Orc Army, that Army deals combat damage to trigger the Ring, and each Ring temptation lets Sauron discard your hand and draw four cards. The deck accelerates into this loop using fast mana and cost-reduction artifacts, then layers damage amplifiers like Glint-Horn Buccaneer, Magmakin Artillerist, and Feast of Sanity so that each discard-and-refill cycle simultaneously burns all opponents. Countermagic, hand disruption via Notion Thief and Orcish Bowmasters, and a suite of removal protect the gameplan until repeated combat-damage triggers and discard-damage drain opponents to zero.
