Indominus Rex, Alpha

Indominus Rex, Alpha Commander Deck

Indominus Rex, Alpha is the centerpiece of this deck, which revolves around discarding creatures with as many different keyword abilities as possible as it enters the battlefield, loading it with counters and drawing a massive hand in the process. The deck fuels its graveyard through discard and self-mill, stocking it with keyword-rich creatures that collectively cover flying, deathtouch, trample, indestructible, lifelink, hexproof, and more, then uses reanimation spells to pull Indominus Rex or key creatures back from the graveyard and trigger fresh enters-the-battlefield effects. The goal is to swing with a virtually unstoppable creature carrying a wide array of keywords — often including trample and deathtouch — while the card advantage generated fuels counterspells and interaction to protect the engine and close out the game.
