John Wick by Winnugami

Format: Commander

Commander: Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Ghyrson Starn, Kelermoph is a one-damage multiplier: the deck is built from cheap pinging creatures, cantrips, rituals, and instant/sorcery removal. As long as Ghyrson remains on the battlefield, every exactly-1-damage trigger adds 2 damage, so a whole turn of cantrips rapidly becomes lethal. The primary plan is to assemble a small board of cast-trigger pings (Firebrand Archer, Kessig Flamebreather, Thermo-Alchemist, Vivi Ornitier) and chain cheap spells. The secondary plan is a storm-like finish using Prismari, the Inspiration, Thousand-Year Storm, or Past in Flames with Grapeshot. Ghyrson also functions as removal conversion: a one-damage sweeper effectively kills most small creatures and planeswalkers. The hidden finisher is Prismari, the Inspiration, not a true hidden commander.
