Sauron, the Dark Lord mine
Sauron, the Dark Lord Commander Deck
Sauron, the Dark Lord sits at the center of a strategy that generates a growing Orc Army token every time opponents cast spells, then swings that Army into players to repeatedly trigger the Ring's temptation and refuel with four fresh cards by discarding and drawing. The deck supports this engine with reanimation effects to recover key threats, tribal synergies around Nazgul and Orcs that reward a large Army, and haste enablers to get the Army attacking immediately. The primary win condition is a near-infinite damage loop using Devastating Onslaught to pump the Army to enormous power while Terror of the Peaks converts that power into lethal damage dealt to opponents before combat even resolves.
