Gandalf of the Secret Fire
Gandalf of the Secret Fire Commander Deck
Gandalf of the Secret Fire incentivizes casting instants and sorceries on opponents' turns by exiling them with suspend, effectively recycling spells for free future casts while building toward explosive turns. The deck floods the board with damage triggers from creatures like Guttersnipe and Electrostatic Field that ping opponents for each instant or sorcery cast, and uses Thousand-Year Storm to copy spells repeatedly, turning a single cast into a lethal storm of damage. Token generation from wizards, card draw payoffs, and taxing enchantments like Propaganda and Ghostly Prison stall the board long enough for the spell-slinging engine to overwhelm all opponents simultaneously.
