Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile
Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile Commander Deck
Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile sits at the center of a "group slug" strategy that punishes opponents simply for playing the game, using a dense web of creatures and enchantments that deal damage or drain life whenever opponents cast spells, draw cards, or have creatures enter the battlefield. Leyline of the Guildpact makes all your nonland permanents all five colors, which means every spell Jenson triggers off becomes an angel-generating proc while also satisfying the condition for effects like Rewards of Diversity and other multicolor payoffs. The primary win condition is the Bloodchief Ascension and Mindcrank combo, which creates an infinite loop of milling and life loss once Ascension is powered up, while the cumulative chip damage from the slug effects accelerates that setup and can close out games on its own.
