Arcane Wizardry
Inalla, Archmage Ritualist Commander Deck
Inalla, Archmage Ritualist leverages her eminence ability to create hasty token copies of Wizards as they enter the battlefield, doubling up on powerful enter-the-battlefield effects like card draw, graveyard recursion, and bounce effects at a cost of just one mana. The deck builds a board of Wizards to feed into Azami, Lady of Scrolls for sustained card advantage, while using Inalla's tap-five-Wizards ability alongside Vela the Night-Clad's life loss triggers from creatures leaving the battlefield to grind opponents down. The primary win conditions are assembling enough Wizards to repeatedly drain life through Vela's leave-the-battlefield triggers, landing the seven-life drain from Inalla's activated ability, or overwhelming opponents with value generated from cascading enter-the-battlefield effects and graveyard recursion backed by board wipes to reset threats.
