Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist by Flexooo

Format: Commander

Commander: Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist and Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Boros deck aims to smash opponents with a single, over-equipped creature, using Rograkh as a free (C) commander that starts attacking on turn 1. Arden attaches every Equipment and Aura you own to Rograkh at the start of combat for free, negating equip costs entirely. The primary win is commander damage from Rograkh, optionally accelerated by resonance-key extra combat from Aurelia, the Warleader to run one whole table. The backhand board recursion and protection, but spending all counts heavy artifact dependence and minimal stack interaction.
