Saskia the Unyielding Commander Precon

Commander 2016100 cards

This is a four-color creature aggro deck built around Saskia the Unyielding. Every creature that connects deals the same damage again to one chosen player, so each combat hit counts double toward killing a single target. The deck goes wide with mana creatures, Saproling producers and recursive small bodies. It then turns that board into lethal damage with team-wide pumps, evasion and attack-trigger payoffs, while punishing the whole table along the way. How it wins: It swings with a wide, pumped team so Saskia's redirect doubles the damage aimed at the chosen player, then finishes the rest with direct burn and drain. Key roles: - Damage doubling and focus fire: Combat damage to any player is copied onto Saskia's chosen target, so even small attackers and extra combats can take one player out fast. Lifelink-style card draw also rewards hitting several opponents. (Breath of Fury, Tymna the Weaver, Boros Charm) - Going wide with tokens: Saproling makers and cheap creatures fill the board, giving more bodies to connect and more fodder for sacrifice outlets. (Mycoloth, Tana, the Bloodsower, Thelonite Hermit) - Team pumps and anthems: Effects that scale the whole board turn a swarm of 1/1s into lethal attackers in a single turn. (Mirror Entity, Thunderfoot Baloth, Wild Beastmaster) - Pushing damage through: Menace, trample, indestructibility, first strike and deathtouch, forced or blocked blocks, and tapping blockers make sure attackers connect and survive. (Iroas, God of Victory, Stonehoof Chieftain, Ankle Shanker) - Opponent-scaling punishers: Cards that grow or tap mana based on what opponents have exploit multiplayer boards and fix four colors. (Wight of Precinct Six, Wilderness Elemental, Primeval Protector) - Recursion, sacrifice value and reach: Small creatures loop back from the graveyard, deaths draw cards or deal damage, and X burn and attack drain close out games. (Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, Skullclamp, Stalking Vengeance)
