Gandalf, Friend of the Shire
Gandalf, Friend of the Shire Commander Deck
Gandalf, Friend of the Shire enables a tempo-control gameplan by granting flash to sorceries, allowing counterspells, card draw, and board interaction to be held up and deployed at instant speed. The deck leverages cost reduction through wizard synergies and artifacts to chain through a large suite of blue spells, generating card advantage through ring-temptation triggers and powerful draw effects. The primary win condition is assembling Enter the Infinite alongside Thassa's Oracle, drawing the entire deck and winning on the spot, supported by tutors and counterspell backup to protect the combo.
