Bane of All Life by Magicman694

Format: Commander

Commander: Bane, Lord of Darkness

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This Naya deck wins by turning lands into large, hasty attackers. Toph, the First Metalbender makes nontoken artifacts into lands and earthbends 2 each end step, but the deck does not depend on her. The primary engine is landfall: Field of the Dead, Scute Swarm, Retreat to Emeria and Felidar Retreat flood the board while earthbend counters and doublers like Hardened Scales, Branching Evolution and The Earth Crystal grow land creatures. Secondary paths use pingers Tunneling Geopede, Sabotender and Tannuk, Memorial Ensign, or a tall threat such as Toph, the Blind Bandit, Tifa Lockhart or Mossborn Hydra. Ashaya, Soul of the Wild with Badgermole Cub and the two Bumis acts as a hidden engine for extra combats and mana.
